MetaMap  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 20100-2
by: MetaHawk [More]

DESCRIPTION:
============
MetaMap adds features to the WoW world map, keeping all mapping type features in a single place.
Some features are:

Adjust the map window size.
Move the map anywhere on the screen.
Adjust the opacity of the window & maps.
Saved sets for toggling between 2 map modes.
Allows full player movement, messaging, etc. with map open.
Adds coords to the main map and the Minimap
Adds Instance maps which open to the correct instance you enter.
Default data included for all bosses & locations etc.
User editable notes for all maps, including instance maps.
NPC/Mob database collectable by mouseover or keypress.
Toggling on/off display of unexplored areas of the map.
Boss Loot Tables displays all the loot dropped by bosses, and more.
Waypoint system to guide you to any set point.
Complete Quest logger with optional history database.
Tracker module for gathering Herbs/Ores etc.
NoteBook module for additional notes, linked to Tooltips.
Inbuilt Import and export facilities for various data formats.
Inbuilt Backup and Restore facilities.
Button on Minimap to open or close the World Map or display MetaMap options.
Key bindings for various MetaMap functions.
Full support for Titan Bar.

INSTALLATION:
=============
Extract ALL folders in the archive to the Interface\AddOns\ location. If you wish the Instance maps to be populated with default information, then on first installation you will need to select 'Extended Options' from the MetaMap menu.
Select the 'Database' tab, then click 'Load Imports'. This will enable the default import button, 'Import Instance Notes'. Click on the 'Import' button to import the data.


ISSUES/COMPATIBILITIES:
=======================
Some addons may reset the map to gather location data.
If your map continuously jumps back to your current location when selecting another map,
it will be due to another addon resetting it. In most cases the authors have made changes
to correct this so, download the latest version of any conflicting addon.

06 June 2007 - v20100-2
Added frame level adjust for TitanBar button. Works correctly again now.
MetaMapTRK now saves options seperately for each character.
...(Currently looking at changing the map routines, which is likely to take some time).
...(Thought i'd get these fixes out in the meantime).

Unhappy MapNote

Ctrl+LeftClick to create a note is not working. I only have MetaMap loaded and it still don't work. Worked fine before update.

So, can't really change that if I don't see a problem. Especially as not setting the headers will not categorise them when needed.
Found the problem, the function was changed:

questTitle, level, questTag, suggestedGroup, isHeader, isCollapsed, isComplete = GetQuestLogTitle(questID);

I didn't check to see if you've updated MetaMap for this yet.

I can't even begin to guess what this means... but it won't go away:
______________________________________________________________________
Interface\AddOns\MetaMap\MetaMap.lua:879: attempt to perform arithmetic on local 'centerX' (a nil value)

[Okay]
______________________________________________________________________

And, of course, it's not Okay. The window won't go away and won't display my map. I had just uninstalled Cartographer to give this a try instead.

No matter how many quests I accept none show up in the MetaMap quest list, at first I thought it may be another AddOn but I disabled absolutely everything other than MetaMap with the same issues.

Inserting debug code showed that all calls to GetQuestLogTitle() were falling into the if (isHeader) ... code section. My suggested change maintains the categories, it simply detects that it's a category via 'level' rather than 'IsHeader' (if 'IsHeader' is supposed to be true, 'level' will always be 0)

FWIW, I was testing various Honor Hold quests in Hellfire Peninsula on the US PTR (since my beta realm is still down, bleh) via the beta client. Lvl 60 char, empty quest log aside from the ones I was picking up/abandoning to test.

If you would like to insert your own debug statements for me to test I'd be happy to do so.

I have fixed my own copy by using the 'level' value, it is always 0 for headers. Please consider modifying the official release until Blizzard fixes the GetQuestLogTitle() function.

Changes:

(function QST_UpdateQuests)

From:
local QuestTitle, _, _, isHeader = GetQuestLogTitle(qIndex);

To:
local QuestTitle, level, _, isHeader = GetQuestLogTitle(qIndex);

From:
if (isHeader) then

To:
if (level == 0) then

(function QST_VerifyLog)

From:
local QuestTitle, _, _, isHeader = GetQuestLogTitle(qIndex);
if (isHeader or qLog.qTitle == QuestTitle) then

To:
local QuestTitle, level, _, isHeader = GetQuestLogTitle(qIndex);
if (level == 0 or qLog.qTitle == Questtitle) then

Re: Send Note to Player Sent Wrong Note / Right Zone

With the -10 version, I sent a mapnote to my lovely wife. The note is located in Azshare at 45,91 labeled "Secret Engineering Workshop". It's purple. And I added it with a QuickNote.

I have a mininote from Darnassus as a result of asking a guard where the Hunter Trainer was. I have BWT enabled is why methinks. Anyway, it's purple, too. :P

Anyway, I opened up the map to Azshara, clicked on the purple note, and sent it away. The note was received as the "Hunter Trainer" in the "Azshara" zone. There was not mapnote in Azshara, however. The "Hunter Trainer" mapnote was not added to the map, but it may be a mininote.

Cheers.
Hmm, very odd. The Mininote shouldn't really have any effect on a map note. Will see about checking it out though.

Hrm, my BLT data is showing now after a cold reboot and being outside the instance. I will try again inside the instance soon.

Minor update: I seems to happen on and off, both in and outside instances. I have not yet been able to determine why it happens or what causes it.

But the WKB is used all the time. It's set to collet data from mouseovers, so it's "used" every time I mouse over a NPC. It should always be loaded.

Purely down to Gatherer i'm afraid. MetaMap does nothing with Gatherer, apart from having an option to display Gatherer's optons. Remember, it is an ALPHA version at the moment, so there's bound to be problems. I'm sure the authors will sort it soon enough for the release though.

My mistake. It seemed to happen as I reported it, but that was due to circumstances.
This is what happens:
Entries in the knownledge base are not recorded until the knowledge base has been opened since the UI was initialized. Whether updates are shown or not has nothing to do with it.

Edit: Removing LoadOnDemand fixes the problem, not surprisingly.

Can't view BLT data?

Not sure if anyone else has this problem. I was viewing instance data for ZG and when I Cntrl-Clicked a MapNote with BLT data, I didn't get the loot list frame. The 'sound' played, but nothing appeared.

I didn't get any lua errors, but I do run a lot of addons (many of which are a tad flaky). I haven't had time to try and debug it yet, maybe this weekend. I do not have MetaMapBWP, MetaMapNBK or MetaMapQST loaded, and the rest are set to autoload on login.

Love the addon, keep up the work (as frustrating as the new patch must be )

Oh I should add I am running the 20000-10 build
