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.

Question Uhm...help?

Ok, maybe I'm just an idiot, but I've loaded LH and it shows up on my add-ons list, but how do I bring it up? I go to my quest list and there's no where that indicates I click to open it up...I'm still having to alt+tab and go to Wowhead, so it isn't doing me a lick of good. Help?

The "jump to page 1" problem seems to be resolved when clicking thru the pages of the quest - thanks for that.

I thought you might like to know that it still happens when you click on an NPC.

For example, the quest [69] The Hermit Smith - on the very first page of the LH data it shows the quest ID, the level and required level, the names of the NPCs who start and end the quest etc.

The NPC names are hyperlinks and when u click on to get more info about his location, it jumps back to the first page of the quest info.

No other changes to mods from my prev post except I am using r217 for LH.

Cheers,
RJS.

The newest version of Carbonite re-breaks it. How freaking obnoxious.
Fixed.. again.. in theory. Gah.

BTW, my version of Lightheaded is .216... Just updated. (Still didn't solve the issue with Carbonite Quest though...)

But I am having an issue with Cartographer and the waypoint arrow... Will have to read through and see if it's mentioned elsewhere on here.
It works fine if I set a waypoint on the map, but when I click on coordinates from Lightheaded, it shows the person I am standing in front of over 7000 yards away in a different direction... LOL
Something else is wrong then. I have verified that my 216 release fixes the Carbonite Quest issue.

I am going to delete cartographer and redownload it and apply it and see what happens...

Just downloaded Carbonite. I absolutely and cannot reproduce this. If I use r-215 it flips back to page 1. If I use r-216 it doesn't.

If you're not using the latest version of the addon, why would you report the error, when quoting the message that says I've updated the addon?

Or am I missing something...
