QuestGuru  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.8.3
by: Lazare [More]

QuestGuru is a Quest Log Enhancer.
If you are looking for the "Classic" version of QuestGuru click QuestGuru_Classic

I have split off QuestGuru and QuestGuru Sounds into two separate addons that don't rely on each other so that the community that really missed the sounds can have them with me delaying them because of the qork being done on QuestGuru. I hope this makes at least some people happy.
You can click > QuestGuru Sounds

Note: If you like this addon, please "Like it" on Curse.com.
All Donations support me and I thank you in advance for it.


Features include:

  • Enhanced 2 page quest display in the log
  • Patch 6.0 broke QuestGuru, so this is a completely different monster
  • Conforms to the WOD map quest log (Tooltips for quests and icons showing quest status)
  • Added full time quest level in front of quest name and tooltips.
For those who are missing the Quest Tracker of QuestGuru, try Kaliel's Tracker


I have been using it for a long while and is not half bad

TO-DO's:
  • Will try and revamp the quest tracker as I love it also. But wanted to get the Log out ASAP.
  • Try to bring back the other features of the old QuestGuru (Sounds, announcements, etc.)
  • Need to make a in-game config window, still a work in progress.
F A Q
==============
Q. How do I post a Bug Report?
  • A1 - Click on QuestGuru Go to the AddOn and on the right side there is a selection called "Bugs" click on that. You will need to be signed in to WoW Interface to create a bug report.
  • A2 - Or file a ticket on QuestGuru@CurseForge
  • Note:
  • Please include the version of QuestGuru you are using and copy/paste the error message you receive.
  • Please describe what you were doing when the error happened. This will help tremendously.
Q. How do I turn on auto-tracking of quests?
  • A - Look in the options for the game itself, not QuestGuru. Under Objectives there are options to set when to track quests.
  • QuestGuru does not duplicate these settings in its own options as it could become problematic and it is not necessary to duplicate options already available.
Q. Where can I find a version compatible with WoW patch x?
  • A. QuestGuru is supported for the current Expansion and Patch level running on the live servers. PTR versions may be supported as Alpha or Beta releases, but I offer no guarantee.

Massive rework of the QuestGuru code. Right now the tracker is not working :(

Version 2.2.18-50400
-------------
QuestGuru
(no changes)

QuestGuru_Tracker
* Normalizing the version numbers between QuestGuru & QuestGuru_Tracker to the same value. This will be the main change log henceforth.
* fix Achievement to ignore update events that happen during portals (between leaving and entering world events)
The update event would fire, but Blizzard was reporting no achievements during that time so the QGT would
"UnTrack" the Achievements and so there would be none when the display tried to update (and therefore currLine was zero and j was nil)
* Look at the oldChangeLog in QuestGuru_Tracker for older updates to the tracker

Version 2.2.17-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Changing the Version number so Curse will see that it's different

Version 1.5.16-50400 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* fix QGT_Achievement.lua to handle Blizzard not returning an integer value on the slider
Version 2.2.16-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Removed a bit of diagnostic code accidently left in.
Version 2.2.15-50400 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Change logic around QuestLog_OnShow to use secure hook functions to resolve
a taint issue introduced by patch 5.4.1 (Shame on you Blizzard).

Version 2.2.14-50400 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.15-50400 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* TOC change for patch 5.4

Version 2.2.14-50300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.15-50300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* TOC change for patch 5.3
* Fixed a problem in QGT_Achievements that caused the Tracker to fail (Tracker)
* Big thanks to CMTitan who provided code to handle Scenarios that came out with MoP (Tracker)

Version 2.2.13-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Added a new sound option to announce (Thank you Drizt)
* Added a snippet of code to fix a rare QuestLog layout problem. Drizt ran into this again in MoP & kindly shared his fix for the issue.
* Fixed a few more places where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.
* Changed the Debug message for the objectives not returning data to be sensitive to the debug setting.

Version 1.5.14-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed another place where party handling was changed in MoP/Patch 5.0.4.

Version 2.2.12-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Blizzard API GetQuestLogLeaderBoard is failing to return information for the identified objective & quest on some quests.
I changed the code to look for no information return and simply bypass processing for that objective after dumping some info into the chatlog.
I've added a slashcommand to invoke the routine at will: "/qg testui1"
For me, it's failing on "Shadow Wardens" and perhaps that's because the world tree marks are currency, not "items".
If the quest is an event quest (get 150 marks) then the type of quest should be event and the numObjectives should be zero.

Version 2.2.11-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Error being reported by some @ line 410 of QuestGuru.lua. Added some diagnostic code when text == nil

Version 2.2.10-50001 (QuestGuru)
-------------
* Removed some leftover diagnostic messages

Version 1.5.13-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Fixed a problem with the Achievement Tracking

Version 2.2.9-50001 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.12-50001 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Both - Updated several items for compatability with Mists of Panderia (Patch 5.0.x)

Version 2.2.7-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.10-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Latest revision of the Russian localization now incorporated. Thank you again StingerSoft!
* Removed some unused code. Frame "QG_QuestLogTitleMenu"
* Fixed the SetBindings problem that would cause all bindings to occassionally get lost.

Version 2.2.6-40300 (QuestGuru)
Version 1.5.9-40300 (QuestGuru_Tracker)
-------------
* Made several localization changes. Enabled $substitution variables in announcer to be localized as well.
* Incorporated a brand new localization for Chinese(zhCN). Credit to Honooon with many thanks.
* Incorporated an updated localization for Russian(ruRU). Credit to StingerSoft with many thanks also.
* Updated all of the localizations (even the new ones) to synchronize variable names
* I based the updates upon the default (American) localization file.
* I removed variables that were no longer in the base localization file (most moved to the QuestGuru_Tracer localization)
* and added missing variables (in American)
* We now have localizations for German, French, Russian, and Chinese (zhCN & zhTW).
* I would really appreciate it if speakers of those languages sent me updates to them.
* There are some new variables in the localizations that need translation!

Version 2.2.5-40300
-------------
* The History button call to QuestCompletist has been fixed.

Version 2.2.4a-40300
-------------
* Refixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker\QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return other than nil, 1, or 2.

Version 2.2.4-40300
-------------
* Fixed the TOC for 4.3 cata
* MrObrien has asked that somebody pickup and work on the QuestGuru so I will try and do some updates as I can't play without this mod.
Addon home is www.wowinterface.com and you can PM me there if you like. Gregity is the name.
I will be making small changes to get used to the codebase before I try anything like a major update.
* Fixed an issue in QuestGuru_Tracker/QGT_Quests.lua where SaveBindings sometimes received an invalid value because GetCurrentBindingSet() would return nil
* No other new information has been added (yet).

Version 2.2.3
-------------
* Fixes for when scrolling the quest log
* The quest log frame will now remember where it was when moved

Version 2.2.2
-------------
* Tracker achievement bug fixes and flashing for completed remote quests

Version 2.2.1

Taint

I came here to report same problem as MysticalOS.

I share his feelings about how great this addon is, but as soon as it starts affecting group/raid play all its qualities take the backseat

I have seen taint on all my characters but the only one I remembered to retain is from hunter.
(the problem exists on my warrior main that is pet-less but I don't have a log to post).

The taint.log of that session is 34mb so I will only post excerpts.
(QuestGuru is the first and only addon mentioned so it's not getting saddled with a taint chain started by another addon)
First taint.log entry:
Code:
1/20 23:07:43.886  An action was blocked in combat because of taint from QuestGuru - PetFrameHappiness:Hide()
1/20 23:07:43.886      Interface\FrameXML\PetFrame.lua:148 PetFrame_SetHappiness()
1/20 23:07:43.886      Interface\FrameXML\PetFrame.lua:92 OnEvent()
1/20 23:07:43.886      Interface\FrameXML\UnitFrame.lua:417
First Blizzard frame affected:
Code:
1/20 23:08:21.704  An action was blocked in combat because of taint from QuestGuru - TargetFrameToT:Show()
1/20 23:08:21.704      Interface\FrameXML\TargetFrame.lua:727
1/20 23:08:21.704      TargetofTarget_Update()

1/20 23:08:21.704      TargetFrame:OnUpdate()
1/20 23:08:21.704  An action was blocked in combat because of taint from QuestGuru - updateFunc()
1/20 23:08:21.704      Interface\FrameXML\AnimationSystem.lua:61 SetUpAnimation()
1/20 23:08:21.704      Interface\FrameXML\MainMenuBar.lua:288

1/20 23:08:21.718      TargetFrame:OnUpdate()
sh*t hits the fan:

1/20 23:08:22.079      Interface\FrameXML\UnitFrame.lua:417
I will try to see what happens when the tracker is not visible
(I think the short lived QuestGuru 2 betas didn't suffer this condition so this makes me think that the problem might be with the custom watch)

I know how annoying taint is to debug but hope this can be sorted else QuestGuru 1.x is unusable

Good luck.

I had to disable questguru because it kept causing vehicle ui failure. whatever bug that's in blizz UI that causes action bars to glitch and has since early 2.0ish also causes vehicles to bug when you exit then and not return your action bars. I have definitely tracked down that disabling QG makes all my vehicle UI glitches go away. makes me sad as I hate not using QG.

The next version will include an option to auto-hide the trackers during combat. I'm still testing it right now, but it seems to be working quite well. I'm still working on the history thing, but hopefully it will be ready soon.

That is great news, I look forward to that.
On the current version, does this mean that it will only see what has been completed since the last update then? I have had QuestGuru installed since I was level 1; but all that is gone and the only history that shows-up is what I have completed since the last update.

Thanks for all your work on this addon; it is one of my "must have addons",
BJR

Yes and good suggestion. It's under colours, then text body colors. The default is gold?! Go figure. Anyway adjusted back to black. However, the down side is that if affects all body text not just the questlog...so picking a color other than black maybe a better option.

So a quick recap:
  • titan quests and questguru don't play nice together which among other things causes lighthead not to work properly (no errors are thrown to bugsack)
  • with v2 of questguru skinner changes the font color of the quest log text to gold. there is no impact on versions 1.x

However, I prefer v2 which pulls the quests from the server. So I've put QuestGuru v2 with Felstone's questhistory to get the mix I'm looking for.

Thanks for the mod!
I have heard reports that some other addons, such as Titan Quests, cause the quest log to get "stuck" on the last quest in the list, which can cause problems with other addons that rely on the selected quest. I have yet to figure out why...

Ok I disabled all but the error catcher & questguru. The golden color quest log font color is coming from skinner. Strangely it's only in ver2.0 of questguru, versions 1.x have black. Removing the questguru skin isn't enough, skinner has to be disabled. I'll leave a message for skinner.

For lighthead & questguru with only those turned on there is no issue with selecting the quest or with lighthead changing to reflect the quest you're wanting info on. So now the crazy job of figuring out what is messing with those 2 mods.

as for qcomments & questguru. qcomments doesn't come up from the tracker only from the quest log. that behavior has not changed.

Lighthead opens. The problem is with what is selected in the quest log. You can select whatever you want, but Lighthead doesn't change. It stays on what ever quest has the highlighted bar on it. Usually the last quest in the quest log.

Which is also causing a problem with deleting quests because that highlight/selection bar is staying at the bottom of the quest log not moving to the quest you are selecting. This problem is the same on 2 different machines. One machine is using Lighthead & the other qcomments.

I'll recheck for error messages, but I don't think there were any for any of this. I'm going to delete & reinstall all 3 mods (have already done this but may have missed something) to look for errors & if the behavior remains.

For the gold colored text. I use skinner, but I didn't think that changed font color. Disabling mods is a pain in the ars because I use so many. I'll make a new toon somewhere and see what happens.

when I put ver 2.0 in the quest log (not tracker) text font color is golden on parchment & not readable. I didn't remember this being the case in versions before 2.0. So I put v 1.3 in and the quest log text color is black. I'm not finding where the quest log font color is being changed. Can you help point me to where I can the font color? Thanks!
