LightHeaded

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.

This is due to another addon scanning the quest log OnUpdate, which it has absolutely no business doing, and I can't provide a good "fix" for it in LightHeaded. Typical addons that cause this are Armory and older versions of QuestHelper.

I would try downloading with another browser, since that's typically been the issues with these sorts of things.

Cladhaire Salad! Forum posts: 1935 File comments: 4939 Uploads: 19	Re: Error open openeing any quest This is due to the 2.4 change in API and you'll need to adjust whatever addon is _calling_ lightheaded. I can't tell what that would be, since the error you pasted doesn't include the stack trace. Most likely the issue with QuestFu which has gone unresolved for quite some time now, other than patches that users are passing aroudn themselves. It really needs to be updated. __________________ "There's only one thing that I know how to do well and I've often been told that you only can do what you know how to do well, and that's be you-- be what you're like-- be like yourself.

["stack"] = "...erface\\AddOns\\ArcHUD2\\Libs\\AceEvent\\AceEvent-2.0.lua:369: in function <...erface\\AddOns\\ArcHUD2\\Libs\\AceEvent\\AceEvent-2.0.lua:345>\n",
}, -- [55]

While yes, this is a stack trace, it does not contain the entire stack and is a useless stack trace. The error is actually occuring from a call to Lightheaded from another addon, and without that information I don't have much to tell you other than to disable your addons (or likely problems) until the issue is fixed. The LightHeaded API changed at 2.4 which as you know was quite some time ago already.

I'm willing to help all I can, but there's not much I can do with this right now. Again, I suspect QuestFu.

I'm not sure why you're not geting it.. likely due to some weird issue with the aceevent dispatch system. You could go to the function on the line defined in LightHeaded and add the following:

self:Print(debug.traceback())

That will print to the chat frame the stack trace every time that function is called. If you do that at the top, you'll be able to see what addon is causing the error.

Shadowed ... Forum posts: 387 File comments: 2513 Uploads: 83	Can't remember if you still have buffer issues on IRC so. Using a few day old version of TourGuide and LightHeaded, if you open the quest log through TourGuide to the specific quest it has you doing then LightHeaded will show data for the last quest you manually click the quest in the log then it'll work fine.

Some folks have asked for how they can donate money, and for many years I've enjoyed hearing about how my addons have helped other people enjoy World of Warcraft. If you would like to donate, I'd ask you to make a donation to the Colorectal Cancer Alliance, a worthy organisation that helped my sister immensely from her diagnosis through her final years. If you or a family member suspect you might have something not right in your butt, please have a doctor check it out. Colorectal cancer is one of the most preventable cancers in the world.
