LightHeaded  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: v100002-1.0.0-2022-12-15
by: Cladhaire [More]

Classic not updated at the moment, only retail.


LightHeaded is a very simple addon that displays quest information and comments from http://www.wowhead.com in game, eliminating the need to Alt-Tab when you get stuck on quest. This addon was inspired by qcomments and wowhead_quests, which both serve a similar purpose. Data is only loaded when you first request it, so you can be sure you're not using more memory than you need to.

I HIGHLY suggest using this addon with TomTom, another one of my addons (http://www.wowinterface.com/download...32-TomTom.html ). This allows you to simply click any coordinate in LightHeaded to add it to your map as a waypoint.

The following slash commands are valid:
  • /lh attach - Attaches the frame to the quest log
  • /lh detach - Detaches the frame, allows you to resize and move it
  • /lh sound - Toggles the open/close sound
  • /lh page - Toggles showing all comments on one page, or with multiple pages
  • /lh bgalpha <0.0-1.0> - Changes the alpha of the LH window background textures, so you can see the world.
  • /lh debug - Enables or disabled debug messages when loading quest databases
  • /lh config - Opens the LightHeaded configuration window
  • /lh autodetails - Toggle automatic opening of the Lightheaded window when clicking a quest in the objective tracker

LightHeaded now includes the English descriptions and introductory text for most of the quests in the game. This is disabled by default, but can be enabled for those players that are not playing in their native locale.

LightHeaded supports sending coordinates to TomTom, MapNotes, Cartographer2 and Cartographer3.

IMPORTANT: Addon authors that wish to use this API and data should
include the wowhead logo in the frame that displays this information.
They are kind enough to let me continue parsing their database, and we
owe them at least that much. Thank you.

Thanks for using my addons!

Updated 2022-12-15 for retail.

It is not available from Curse. You can download it from here, it should work just fine so there must be something small missing.

So, I have added a new update. It should include the quests from Timeless. If you find other quests that are missing, please post the quest IDs here and I'll look into it.

Found the error tonight when I was trying to find my screenshots, which seemed to have disappeared as well. When I reinstalled the game in saved in my x86 program files rather than just in my C drive. When I moved the files to that interface folder it worked just fine. Thanks for all of the suggestions, I love this addon and am glad to have it back!

Request

wtb at least a setting for it if you want, to not load data while in combat. idk how many times i've accidentally clicked a quest link and then locked up in combat for a few seconds while it's loading the data file that that quest is in

I just wanted to say "Thank you"... I love this mod so much. I have been away from WoW for well over 2 years and I have come to realize that this is without a doubt my favorite mod. So, thanks for keeping it up to date and helping everyone out when you can. Donation on the way.

It won't crash, but you should see a bunch of folders in the .zip file. It's a fairly large download but it should work just fine from the site. I've uploaded a new version with the 6.0.2 version in the file, so perhaps that one will work better for you?

sigh.. obviously Lightheaded doesn't like me anymore.. or my computer just isn't getting the whole thing. Even the new file is giving me the unexpected end of archive error. Looking at the file size I'm getting 21.9 megs... not sure what to do about it. Bites.. I've loved using your program for years.

Yeah, tried the updated one you just posted and it isnt working. The addon doesnt seem to be registering at all... typing /lh just brings up the standard blizzard error of unknown command.

btw, having to use a download manager to get it downloaded properly for some reason... it's cutting off the dl at 10 megs every time. Weird.

It won't work until you have 6.0.2.
