Zone completion tracking

I'm attempting to find an addon that will, upon entering a zone, automatically track the associated Quest's completed achievement.

I know I've seen it somewhere, but for the life of me I'm unable to find it. Any suggestions/thoughts/ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Quest Completist?

Wholly + Grail?

Sorry, I think I explained poorly what I was after.

Each zone has an achievement for the number of quests completed within it. Like Deep Into Deepholm for example.

What I'm looking for is some way upon entering a zone or completing a quest within a zone for the associated achievement to be tracked.

Wholly and Grail which I currently use, I can see all the potential quest's on the map. There's no option I've found that allows auto tracking of the zone achievement though. Same with Quest Completist that IU can see from the addons description.

Something like Loremaster maybe?

Loremaster does the same things as Wholly/Grail and also QuestCompletist, thank you for the suggestion though.

Basically all I'm trying to do is be more lazy/efficient There has to be an easier way than to go into Achievements, go under Quests, find the right continent, then the right zone, all to hit that silly little checkbox to Track the achieve, lol.

You can see if http://www.wowinterface.com/download...rachiever.html or http://www.wowinterface.com/download...nAchiever.html have this feature or request it to one of the authors...

I use Overachiever myself, but I don't remember if there's an option to auto-track the quest achievements...

With Wholly, instead of looking at the zone's quests you can look at the achievement's quests. The title in the popup is colored green if you have completed the achievement and yellow if not. For the "zone" achievements you can monitor the quests as they turn green (or disappear from the list if you do not display completed quests). Yes, Wholly does not automatically set the selected zone to the "associated" achievement when you change zones, so there is a little manual intervention involved.

As another option, you can set the preferences in Wholly to only show Loremaster quests. This will make sure the zone quests only show Loremaster quests for that zone (including quests that start in other zones, but are Loremaster for the zone you selected). As you go through the list you will eventually get the achievement before all the quests in the list disappear.

However, what you really seem to want is the ability for Wholly to display the information you seek. Please submit an enhancement request on the curseforge website for Wholly.

TomQuest 2 has an achievement tracker as well as a quest tracker. I used it for exactly the purpose you are describing when I was doing my loremaster achievement.

http://www.wowinterface.com/download...tomQuest2.html


It is a LibDataBroker addon although the quest and achievement tracker are independent of your LDB display.

Hope this helps.

I may still be confusing folks about what I'm looking for. I dug up some old screenshots of exactly what it is.

In the attached picture, you'll see Carbonite's Quest Tracker/Watchframe. The toon I was on is in Icecrown, and circled in redish is the result I'm after. Nothing overly complicated, just looking to see if there's a lazy mans way to do it automagically vs going into the Achievement window and hitting "Track" whenever I zone.

Hope that clarifies it better.

I've written a quick addon to do this:

Please let me know if you notice any zones that don't work properly; I didn't fly around the whole world to test them all.

Thank you Phanx! D/L'd and installed but I wont be able to test till later this afternoon/evening Silly work gets in the way of things.



*Edit*

Just noticed as another commenter did that the files are not within a folder. No biggie, just made a folder and unzipped into it. Thank you again.

Fixed. I always forget to do that for new addons.
