Originally posted by Redwood Elf I still think that adding a slash command to let users add quest/routing markers and fix objectives would be worth the effort...that way, you can get the user base to update the database for you, and free up your time for more interesting/fun activities. So instead of all the "This quest is broken"...

Re: Re: Filter Dungeons/Groups?
Posted By: ZorbaTHut
Originally posted by AnrDaemon You can think about group quests as having "your level + amount of group members" level requirement. Dungeon quests considered as 5-man group q. There goes solution: enable your level filter as +2-3 and it'll take care of it. It's actually +2 levels per group members, and dungeons are considered...

I've got a few ideas to possibly revitalize that. We'll see if they work. If they don't, then the answer may be "when someone else...

Originally posted by xtoq Zorba, OMFG have you read the 3.2 patch notes?!?!!?! Do you have any idea what the status of QuestHelper will be after 3.2 hits, since they are including a lot of QH's functionality into the default UI? I realize that Blizzard rarely does a good job of mimicking addon functionality, but won't this mean y...

Originally posted by Redwood Elf Ah, I thought it was trying to create a "shortest path" from quest to quest to minimise completion time. Maybe, as it's computing the pathing, you could have it check quests with multiple nodes using each of the nodes as a separate path, and then take the path that gives the lowest distance travelle...

Originally posted by Jzar I have my "Blocked" filter enabled, and for the past ... 3 weeks or so? ... everytime I log in, it still shows circles for turn-ins of quests that I haven't completed yet. I have to disable that filter, then reenable it, and it'll work great until I reload UI or logout. Can you fix this for me please?...

Re: Re: Re: Easy QH performance fix +50-100% gain

Originally posted by level9 Not exactly. QH like all other LUA mods will use 100% CPU until your functional code block completes its processing (or your coroutine yields back to Blizzard's UI). The UI code isn't multi-threaded and neither is LUA, unfortunately. 'while true do end' will naturally freeze the game. Put the 'while true...

Posted By: ZorbaTHut
Originally posted by level9 I did some quick tests with these simple changes in the routing*.lua QH files and my overall system performance skyrocketed: +15-20fps gains. I had to double check QH was still working :-) While I can believe there's some performance increase, I find this claim extremely dubious - Questhelper uses a s...

Originally posted by AnrDaemon Try delete addon folder completely and reinstall. Looks like your installation is corrupted somehow. Yeah, that's a pretty thorough installation-corrupted issue. Download from another site if you can't seem to get a good install, sometimes your browser will end up with a bad version cached and jus...

Originally posted by Toran Has anyone tested the cpu usage of this compared to Carbonite?

While it does use extra memory, I'm more concerned about the cpu usage. Anyone done a comparison on cpu impact?...

Originally posted by Thrana It appears that QuestHelber is no longer able to tell which quests are being tracked by UberQuest.

Originally posted by Thortok2000 It's been an ongoing thing Zorba, I think I reported this same issue to you via PM when I was alpha testing.
