WoW-Pro Leveling Addon (Old)

Off topic…But I am madly in love with your UI… tell me your secrets!

error with 2.0.2Hello, I keep getting error with new version of addon and I am using new TomTom aswell.

Here is SS: http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/6126/wowscrnshot112510221917.jpg

Which has the advantage of putting a skull on the minimap of the named mob

AgreedAs was I. I was all like “it was working yesterday for my horde toon, now it’s not.” At least I checked to see if someone said something about it this time…

ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED:AddOn ‘WoWPro’ …Hey guys, first of all, fantastic job! I’ve tried the Thousand Needles Horde guides and I really like what you’ve done. Congrats!

I did have one recurring problem though, I get ADDON_ACTION_BLOCKED:AddOn ‘WoWPro’ error messages. After checking the WoWPro_Frames.lua, I came with the hypothesis that the errors happen because the addon was trying to resize or move the action buttons during combat. To test my hypothesis, I’ve hacked my local version to wait until the combat is over to move or resize the WoW-Pro frames and so far, no more error.

It’s simple to do, you just have to listen to PLAYER_REGEN_DISABLED to know you are in combat and PLAYER_REGEN_ENABLED to know when you get out of it. I can send you a patch file if you want to see the hacking I’ve done.

Let me know if you want it.

[Edit: ha well, it didn’t solve the BLOCKED error after all. I guess I was just lucky for the rest of the night yesterday. I’ll let you know if I find something else.]

GAHI keep breaking the Level parsing part ><

Nah, the issue has to do withNah, the issue has to do with the minimap icon lib, but the error prevents the addon from loading altogether. If you downloaded the 2.0.2 version with the recorder and if it’s working, then Jiyambi only got the version without the recorder wrong.

EDIT: Also, if you fetch directly from git, it should work well.

Is that the issue that wasIs that the issue that was causing me issues earlier?

thanksI was scratching my head there trying to work out what i had done wrong 😉

Important!Important! There’s a problem with the 2.0.2 zip file linked above, that makes the addon un-usable. Until Jiyambi fixes it, please revert back to the version 2.0.1 for now.

Coding questionMagicSN is working on one of Arixan’s guides. I think this will work fine, but wanted a more experienced opinion. Thanks!

– The player has to kill a certain mob
– Then he needs to loot a questitem from the mob (for a quest he does not yet have, it is an item
which GIVES a quest)
– Then he has to click the item to start the quest

My idea was the following, does this work?

C Fathom-Lord Zin’jatar|QID|25909|L|54614|M|67.3,49.4|Z|Shimmering Expanse|N|Kill the Fathom-Lord and loot the Luminescent Pearl from him.|

Addon Update!Hi everyone! A couple of important announcements for you today!

[b]Change in Addon Distribution – IMPORTANT![/b]
[list]After much discussion, Jame, Snowflake, and I have come to the decision that we’d like to scale back our distribution of the addon on separate sites such as WoW Interface and Curse.com. We will still push updates to those sites, but they will be updated much less frequently, possibly a week or two AFTER the updates here on WoW-Pro. We want to encourage people to come to the site and see all the OTHER awesome guides here, not just the addon. We’ll be talking about this change and explaining our reasoning a bit more in the next issue of the WoW-Pro Newsletter, which will be released next Wednesday.[/list]

you fixed it@:D

Grrrr, I don’tGrrrr, I don’t understaaaaand. Mine is saving fine!

I’ll try deleting my WTF and see if I can reproduce the problem.

Note to self and/or editor ofNote to self and/or editor of Alliance’s Duskwallow Marsh guide.

Mud the Ogre no longer exsists as a quest giver; though the same quest is now issues by Jarl at the mad man’s hut. This becomes available after the Unpopped eyes quest.

My recorderIs not saving, I am having to copy and paste my findings, which is a drag. It also threw a hissy fit at me earlier when trying to delete some steps, then didnt allow my to even copy my data. Sadly that means I lost Duskwallow Marsh, although from what I can tell it plays EXACTLY the same as before with a few tweaks to navigation points and cortello’s riddle no longer exsists. I havent done the onxyia quests yet SOOO they may have changed too.

I’ve had some issues with theI’ve had some issues with the recorder not recording some of my steps tonight too. Sometimes it just duplicates the previous step? Weird.

We areCurrently working on Alliance Guides. There are a lot of sections still needed here. Please be patient and we will have you Gnomish Goodness as soon as possible 🙂

Some guides disapeared…MaybeOk, when i go in the Addon, i don’t see anymore guides between lvl 20 or so till lvl 60 around.

Well, i have 4 lvl 30 character that can go to STV, eastern side and do the old quest at the 1st camp, in the north (not in Booty Bay … don’t remember right now the camp name…). The shimering is dead now (that was the lvl 30+ place to lvl up, Western continent).*IT IS BETTER TO BE LVL 25 AROUND TO DO QUEST THERE, lvl 30 = grey and green colored quest.

lvl 34-35: wpl, Andorhal

Just want to give this info cause i was stuck till i found myself what to do…

Guides not working correctly on AllianceTrying the guides with new toons, and they seem to be either skipping steps, not recording steps I’ve taken, or telling me to get quests that I cannot yet recieve (either through level, or quest chain).

I’ve turned off ALL other addons but Wow-Pro, and it still happens. I’ve done this now with every race, and differnt classes (I haven’t tried them all as of yet).

Alliance guide problems or?Hmmm, so you can use the two starter zones like in wrath if the other guides are not completed on time…cool

I loved this guide for Wrath. Best guide EVER

TomTom has a new version. ItTomTom has a new version. It should work with no errors with our addon, but please test it out!

Horde is half complete – onlyHorde is half complete – only one or two zones in Eastern Kingdoms have been completed, but there is at least one path from 1-85.

Most of the beta players were Horde on live, and felt it easiest to work on Horde guides.

However, if I may draw you attention to the note at the top of this page…

[quote=Jiyambi]
NOTE: ALL MISSING GUIDES WILL BE ADDED OVER TIME!

We didn’t manage to get every zone done before the beta ended. The other zones WILL be added – in the words of Blizzard – soon. We’re working our hardest, but if you’d like to help, check out the “Using the Recorder” guide listed at the bottom of this article! No coding or guide writing knowledge required!
[/quote]

In terms of whether they will be done “in time” – I’m assuming you mean the 80-85 guides, and it is definitely our hope to get at least the first three zones completed in addon form for both factions.

Please note that these three zones are [b]COMPLETE FOR BOTH FACTIONS[/b] in “paper” format. Also note that most people will get withing half a level of 85 if they do all three zones.

Hope that answers your questions!

Alliance guide problems or?I guess Horde had all the players in beta? Do you think you will have the Alliance guide done in time?

Looks like the Horde is complete 80-85.

Oh okOh ok 😛

We don’t have many AllianceWe don’t have many Alliance start guides done yet either – we just happen to have had more Hordies in the beta than Alliance folks, but even so, we didn’t get every guide. I only finished the Orc 1-5 guide yesterday evening. Gylin is currently working on the Mulgore guide, and it should be done shortly.

Mulgore??I know many of the quests in bloodhoof havent changed, but what about the guide? You have every starting area (including goblins) Except mulgore 😛

Hah, those are supposed toHah, those are supposed to load automatically, my bad! I’ll look into that. Your idea of having the race names in parentheses is a good one, and already allowed in the naming convention. I’ll add it in the future!

Race name for Starting ZonesNow that I can finally see some of the Shattering stuff. I noticed something while rolling a Troll. It didn’t auto load Echo Isles, and I was unsure what starting zone guide to load and had to back out to the the web to see which was which. For starting zones, perhaps it could say something like Echo Isles (Troll Starting), Gilneas (Worgen), etc. same for race specific zones after the start if it continues to be race specific (I know the goblins move zones after their first starting area but don’t know if the guide covers that move in the first guide or not as I can’t roll a goblin yet). Hopefully that is clear…lol…

I tried that but i still gotI tried that but i still got an error and now quests to see in the addon.

It’s mentioned many times onIt’s mentioned many times on the site, in comments and on the other addon sites, but I suppose I should put a big note on the top of this page.

Yes, we WILL have these guides as soon as possible. Unfortunately we didn’t have many active Alliance players on the beta, so we don’t have many guides for those zones yet. We’re doing our best to get them out as soon as possible, but if you happen to be questing through those zones, it would be a great help if you wanted to download and run the WoW-Pro recorder. The details are in the guide linked at the bottom of the above post.

gapsi love this guide and went to do one of my lower lvl toons but for ally the guide ends at 20 and then doesnt pick up again untill lvl 55 for the dk section. is there gonna be any guides to fill in this huge lvl gap or are you just gonna leave it be?

This should be fixed shortly.This should be fixed shortly. For now, try turning off mouse over notes and reloading.

I will look into that,I will look into that, thanks! I actually have a character right at that level in that area, so I should be able to fix it shortly 🙂

Addon Missing QuestsHi.

First, I apologize if this is in the wrong section. I tried to find the right spot to put this comment, but I wasnt able to do so. Anyway, I am using version 2.0.1. I am leveling in Eversong Woods / Ghostlands area. There are quests missing from the addon that need to send you through the quest The Scorched Grove. The addon never sends you that direction to complete the map or the final 3 or 4 quests in that area.

Thanks.

Error message in 4.0.3aI’m getting the same blank guide frame. Here is the error generated:

Ooooo. I new there was aOoooo. I new there was a setting I wasn’t checking.

Should be fixed in the nextShould be fixed in the next version. As a workaround for now… turn off WoWPro’s ‘mouseover note’ option, re-log (or run /reload) and turn on the ‘mouseover note’ option, if you prefer that way.

Did you get any errorDid you get any error message? If not, when you right-click the guide frame’s title, where it says “no guide loaded”, can’t you see a ‘Guide List’ option in the dropdown menu? If not, make sure you have both WoW-Pro Guides and WoW-Pro Leveling addons selected in the addon list, before logging in with a character.

Add on ErrorI know its the first day and all, but my add on is not working and I’ve deleted everything including the lua files. I then reinstalled with no results. It loads the add-on frames but no guides come up.

Anyway, I’m greatly impressed that your team was able to make this date. Hats off to all the people who made this possible on patch day! And for free! You guys are the best! I just wanted to let you know that there are some problems to investigate and to encourage others to report them if they experience them.

I can reproduce it, will postI can reproduce it, will post on github.

I can’t seem to reproduceI can’t seem to reproduce this error. Try clearing your WoWPro WTF file, and see if it still happens.

[b]WoW-Pro Needs YOU![/b]
[list]As you can see, we have a TON of guides ready for you to use with the Shattering and Cataclysm. However, some are still missing. If you’d like to help us out and get YOUR NAME in an addon downloaded by THOUSANDS, go [url=https://github.com/downloads/Jiyambi/WoW-Pro-Guides/WoWPro%20Recorder%20v2.0.1.zip]download the WoW-Pro Recorder[/url] and record your questing! It has TONS of new features that make it very easy to use, whether you want to simply turn it on and forget about it, or edit and improve your guide as you go. Check out my [url=https://www.wow-pro.com/wowpro_addon/using_wowpro_recorder]Guide to Using the Recorder[/url] for more information on how you can help out![/list]

[b]Known Issues:[/b]
[list][*]Currently TomTom does not function properly in the Northern and Southern Barrens, either Stranglethorn vale zone, or any Cataclysm only zones. The world map waypoint should work, but the mini map and the crazy arrow do NOT. They should function normally for all other zones, however, and this should be fixed in the near future![/list]

They will be included in theThey will be included in the update that will be posted tonight, and will be updated as more are coded.

When are the addons that areWhen are the addons that are ready to be used for level 80-85 going to be available to download?

While I agree that the addonWhile I agree that the addon should be more forgiving ( have more fail-safes) – it is definitely intended that EVERY step require a QID. Without this requirement, the addon would not allow someone to start mid-way through a guide, or be able to fully recover from a loss of saved data. In the future, I may work toward adding more fail safes – but more likely we’ll simply work towards a higher quality control for the guide files instead!

Missing QID tags make steps uncompletableWhile I can understand needing the questID on each line maybe coding the add-on to be more forgiving for guide authors faux pas. Several of the guides I have used in the last week “hang” on a specific task until |QID| is added to that step. These include simple note steps.

Another Recorder/Cataclysm UpdateAnother update to the Recorder and Cata guides, hopefully the last for a while.

[url=https://github.com/downloads/Jiyambi/WoW-Pro-Guides/WoWPro%20Cataclysm%20v2.0.2%20in%20dev.zip]Click here for the update[/url]

In this version:
[list][*]Fixes issue causing problems when moving items up and down or cloning them.
[*]Fixes issue with incorrectly named saved variable file – NOTE: users with save data should BACK UP YOUR WORK before updating!
[*]Fix to bug causing |RANK| and |QID| tags to destroy eachother.[/list]

I *think* this will be the last update for some time. I just completed the Feralas guide doing all of my editing in-game with the recorder, so I think everything has been tested. As always, please report any bugs you encounter!

Recorder/Cataclysm Addon Fixes!Hi folks! I just uploaded some fixes to the addon and the recorder.

Bugs fixed:
[list][*]Infinite loop is no longer caused when placing a sticky right after an unsticky (or accidentally marking them both sticky and unsticky).
[*]Quest Objective based steps (|QO| tags) should now complete correctly.
[*]The addon frame now correctly remembers it’s location if it’s in manual resize mode, but still has issues in auto-resize mode. We’re working on this.[/list]

Enjoy!
