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.

Thak you Clad for your hardwork with this and Clique. Big fan.
If I have the time to do breakfixes and get a new parse off, yes. It'll be a bit rocky for a few days, but I'll update the code for 3.X, and then the comments for wrath when it hits.

I will wait as long as I can for Lightheaded (and TomTom). For you, CladHaire, may take as long as you want. The coding, I know takes awhile, so I will work with just the maps.

I should be able to get stuff out pretty quickly once I have time, which _should_ be sometime tomorrow (I'm GMT, so it'll be morning/afternoon for the US crowd)

Can't live without Lightheaded!!!!

Yes, I love it as well and am having withdrawal symptoms because it's not working in 3.0.2! Now that I've used it in 2.43, I can't live without it! hehe... Can you give us any updates on the progress towards a working version now that the patch is out? Thanks for all the hard work.

By the way, in case anybody knows, is there an update coming for Doublewide too? It also doesn't work in 3.0.2.

WORKS LIKE A CHAMP!

Fantastic! Works perfectly for me. Thanks SOOOOO much..

Do you have any insight to share on the Doublewide compatibility issue? Getting that fixed too would be a godsend.

Thanks again.

There are none. I downloaded Doublewide and it worked perfectly, as expected. You have to say whats wrong if you are seeing something different.

Doublewide not working for me.

Quite simply, I have Doublewide installed correctly, checked in the add-on menu, but the quest log still shows the quest list and the quest text in the same box (not doublewide'ed). Is there a configuration item I need to set? Not sure how to proceed here.

No, it "just works". Is it listed as out of date? Do you have Load out of date addon checked, if so?

re: Doublewide

and, by the way, in the Addon List menu, it's showing Doublewide (v0.6) as "Out of Date". Not sure what's happening.

It means the version number for DoubleWide is out of date. This is just a reminder that you shoudl look for a new version when it comes out. The addon still works absolutely and 100%. You can click "Load out of date addons" to load it.
