WoW-Pro Leveling Addon (Old)

Copied and Pasted to theCopied and Pasted to the Durotar Addon page. Hope it helps.

If you don’t want to uploadIf you don’t want to upload the edited file, I can implement the changes too. Thanks again!

Thanks for the editing! YouThanks for the editing! You can always upload them to the forum. Make a new post here: https://www.wow-pro.com/forum/210Then it will be under the Catalcysm Guides part of the forum.

Same issueYeah im experianceing the same issue but also on the quest Making Stumps, havent tired your quick fix but i have tried clicking it off and it goes away and allows the guide to continue till i turn in another quest and then the Mor’shan Defense quests pops right back up

More 05-12 Durotar fixes/recommendationsWasn’t sure why “h Valley of Wisdom|QID|25263” was right after turning in securing the lines. As hearthstone isn’t used I would recommend putting this at the end of the guide after “A Ak’Zeloth|QID|25264”.“C Thunder Down Under|QID|25236” isn’t showing up in game. I believe because there is an extra ‘|’ after “|Z|Durotar”“T Neeru Fireblade|QID|25263” points to location in Durotar. Requires a “|Z|Orgrimmar”. Could add those to all Orgrimmar items following the turn in as well.I’ve made these changes myself to the file. I can upload it if is easier for you. Do you have a recomendation of where to upload it to.

If you are comfortable withIf you are comfortable with using git, you can edit and upload the file that way. Other ways to submit your work include uploading it somewhere and giving me the link, or posting the raw text from the lua file in to a forum post or comment here on WoW-Pro.At the moment I don’t have a prefered method, but soon we will have a more centralized place to post these updates.Thanks!

Nice video Jiyambi! =) HavingNice video Jiyambi! =) Having a blast leveling a new character from scratch in the all new Azeroth. (Maskitta says, “Hey, mon! Dat Jiyambi is cris!”) Anyway, I noticed some rough spots in the Ashenvale guide (wow, amazing zone again!). Is it ok to edit the guide and add missing quests (for the completionists)? What’s the best way to do this? I used to edit the .lua file and then upload it, but I see you can edit the file right on the codeplex server… Well, back to Maskitta on Shadow Council =)

This made me smile lots(20:17:04) guest-134: btw best addon with support i have ever seen

As the other helpful repliesAs the other helpful replies stated, these guides are not quite done – but they are *almost* done, and since we definitely plan to have them in some form complete by Tuesday, I listed them normally in the above table.

No problem., I figured it mayNo problem., I figured it may have been mostly bug fixes.  But I decided to put the link for those that wanted them right away.

Thanks for the easy downloadThanks for the easy download link Cracker, and sorry I didn’t get all your updates in. I mostly just fixed the bug causing the addon not to load and threw the update up there. I’ll make sure your guides get updated by Friday at the latest.

They are not. TwilightThey are not. Twilight Highlands for Alliance is missing.Myselves I lack the time to finish this (I want to do some consolidation on my existing guides before tuesday, checking everything through once more and fixing small bugs – already complete with Uldum and Hyjal on this – well, I sort of hyjacked the Hyjal guide for Alliance ^^), but if someone could at least look up the Quest IDs + positions + questgivernames+quest flow, this would help even if it would not be a complete guide (would make things easier for coders).Note: From next Tuesday I will be leveling my mainchar to 85, so probably updates from me more or less after I reached 85 depending on how fast I progress.It should also be noted that I expect 80+ guides to have bugs due to lack of information situation. This will probably be worst for Vashj’ir where a lot of contradicting information was on quest databases and to a lower extent (see my other post on this issue) potentially on Deepholm.Also note that several guides for Horde are not complete yet (no PRE-information or missing quests, especially Vashj’ir).MagicSN

I believe they areI believe they are work in progress.  Content will be added in future updates, it is fair for users to assume there will me more updates between now and next tuesday :D(Edited to be more accurate) 

The lead in quests will notThe lead in quests will not appear if the user did not do Azshara before it (i think), they will also not appear if the user has the Hero’s Call quest either in their log, or turned in already.  The thing about lore master seekers in this new content is they do have to follow a sort of zone flow, for example, if you are going to Winterspring to get the zone achievement, you wont have very many quests open in everlook at all, you pretty much need to start at the Dwarf npc near timbermaw hold.  My suggestion for loremaster seekers is start at the lowest zone possible, for example a horde player in Kalimdore would need to start in Azshara or Northern Barrens before he/she would get the maximum possible output from Ashenvale.  Also for another example, there is a quest hub in Ashenvale for the Alliance that opens up Stonetallon mountains.  This is definately something that I will do my utmost to test between now and then and see if we need to refine some details for guide users.Great question though.

Cataclysm add-on guides in v2.04It looks like the add on guides are done for all 80-85 zones, are they complete for both Alliance and Horde?  Thanks again for all your work, I have used and recommended your guides for years now.  They are excellent and the add-on is great.

PhasingNot sure if this is an issue with the main addon or a specific guide. I had a friend load this to help him find the last few quests for one of the new Old World achievements. Helped him realize he couldn’t see the NPC he needed as it was out of phase. Specifically, he needed Kadrak near Mor’Shan Rampart on Horde side. He suspected he needed to do some quests in Northern Barrens or such to get that NPC to appear.
I know the guides are supposed to take quest chains into account, but are the guides/addon taking phasing into account? Or was this overlooked? Or are my friend and I just confused? Thanks

I noticed that in the latestI noticed that in the latest version of the addon that a few of my guides were not completely updated to the latest version of them.  Thought I would let you know, and provide the latest files, for those who would like to download them now. http://www.filefront.com/17585573/Updated-lua-files-for-EPL-Badlands-Searing-Gorge.rar/

Fixed…Thanks!

Outland vs northrendLet me first say very good job with the add-on: I love it and a very nice video too!
I saw a small error in this post. I supose the second continent named outland has to be northrend (zones there are from northrend). Verry small detail 😉

I <3 the new page layout andI <3 the new page layout and the video! Excellent work as always! 😀

quests getting stuckI have the updated versions of both tomtom and wow-pro and have tried clearing my WTF folder and still there are particular quests in ashenvale with the new version that get stuck, they also stick on the tomtom arrow and wont update any other quests below them… the ones in question are Mor’shan Defense, and Lousy piece of ship… as i said, they seem to be stuck in the helper and are forcing following quests to not update properly.. any helpfull insight? I found a Quickfix:Right clicking the stuck quests and setting them as a sticky allows the rest to continue

revised Human Starter areaI went through the human area and updated it to autocomplete more and to recognize some of the beginning quest whose quest id must of changed since it was written. Not saying its perfect but my 8 year old son used it today and got through the area.
http://www.filefront.com/17565896/01_11_Kurich_Elwynn_Forest.lua
Edit: I noticed when starting a character that this was back to having problems in the starter area. I think up till the point when you get class quest that each class has its own starting quest ids.

I’m working on a completeI’m working on a complete revamp both to this page and to the pages for the community contributions to the addon. Should be done later tonight. I will also be updating the addon at that time.Remember – get your addon updates HERE on WoW-Pro! The version on Curse and WoWI will have core bug fixes, but they won’t have guides updates as quickly!Enjoy and feel free to post any questions you have!

No problem, glad I couldNo problem, glad I could help.

did not knowahh i did not know that right clicking just completes the step. thank you so much. i’ll do that as soon as i get on later. thank you 🙂

Wow, incredibly nice videoWow, incredibly nice video Jiyambi, amazing work.To everyone: We will promote the leveling addon over the coming days in various ways but if you can, please help us and share the link to this page / video. Whether it is inside your guild chat or on your FB-wall / Twitter… every bit helps!Thanks. 

Are you right clicking orAre you right clicking or left clicking on the box?  Right click is to complete just that step, where left clicking basically skips all of the steps for that quest.

guide problemi decided to use the guide on a new character halfway through the hellfire penisula levle but i can’t get the guide to progress to the next bit on the list, if i do it manually then stages get missed out which then means i gotta go in to the current guide and untick the bits that i havn’t done. dunno if anyone else has had this problem. apart from this and another fault i reported ages ago i’ve had no problem with the add on :S

Hmmm. I’m wondering if itHmmm. I’m wondering if it thinks you are abandoning it. Did you recently start to abandon a quest, then decide not to? Our guide tries to tell when someone is abandoning a quest rather than completing it, but it’s not always good at that. Try a /reload to see if that clears it, and thanks for the report!

The same thingHappened to me actually when testing Bit’s Ashenvale (H) Guide

Something strange happeningWhen testing a guide I have written, now and then after I turn the quest in, it uncompletes itself. Not sure the turn-in, but the all the steps for it.

For example “Heroes of Darrowshire”, below is the code of all the steps.

A Heroes of Darrowshire|QID|27388|M|35.18,68.02|N|From Chromie.|
N Heroes of Darrowshire|QID|27388|L|13202|M|35.57,68.89|N|Talk to Carl Redpath inside the tower and get the “Extended Annals of Darrowshire”.|
N Heroes of Darrowshire|QID|27388|L|12955|M|22.29,68.40|N|Pick up “Redpath’s Shield”.|
C Heroes of Darrowshire|QID|27388|L|12954|M|22.29,68.40|N|Pick up “Davil’s Libram” upstairs from the shield. Should be in the fireplace.|
T Heroes of Darrowshire|QID|27388|M|35.15,68.05|N|To Chromie.|

Woooo new video, nice.Lol didWoooo new video, nice.Lol did you steal my toon? your first gnome looks exactly like one of mine!

Just a commentJust a comment…

TomTomLite has been released. But at the moment, it’s not really compatible with WoWPro addons. So, for now, just keep using TomTom itself.

Interesting! For theInteresting! For the race/class names, I have been using the second returned value which should be independent of localization, so I’m not sure why this isn’t working… except that I’m not sure I’ve accounted for the capitalization issue. I’ll look into that!

For the quest objectives – great that it displays them localized! Unfortunately it will cause some steps not to auto-complete if they are based on quest objective completion, since those are coded in English. But there’s not much we can do about that, other than discouraging use of that type of tag unless it’s actually necessary.

Addon Update v2.0.3Hi everyone! I just released a critical update to the addon which should fix the library issue that was causing the addon to not load. Very sorry about that!

This update ONLY has that fix – I’ll be rolling all the new guide files you awesome people have been posting into an update in the near future.

Terrokar Forest bugGreat guides!  I am leveling up a Pally and in the Terrokar Forest guide step 64 the coords are pointing to the wrong zone to pick up the quest/  I think the coords are right but it points to Terrokar and not to Shattrath to pick up the “A personal Favor” Quest.  Thanks for all the hard work on all of these guides.

The skull on the mini-map isThe skull on the mini-map is NOT something our addon does – that’s just Blizzard’s quest tracker.The |T| tag allows you to click the icon and put a skull on the creature’s head, which CAN still be helpful.Bits – in your version the first step would complete whether or not they looted the mob, while in Gylin’s example would only complete once they looted the item. Unfortunately the loot tag doesn’t really work with C type steps very well if the C step would normally automatically complete BEFORE the L tag would cause the step to complete. So, I’d recommend using Gylin’s version for the first step.

Thanks for the report! WeThanks for the report! We already have a system in place to avoid updating the frames in combat, but something must have slipped. When you have the blocked error again, please post the taint log, as I cannot reproduce it.

Yeah, I had noticed that. InYeah, I had noticed that. In fact, we havent been worrying about localization at all (with the “regular” bugs and all), so there’s probably more problems such as this. It’s something I’m interested in ’cause English is also not my first language. 🙂

I’ll post the localized class issue on github. You can post here (or there) if you find more issues. Also, feel free to work on coding these from git. 🙂

Thanks for the report, I’llThanks for the report, I’ll take a look at it.

Important! Please read!Important! There’s a problem with the 2.0.2 zip file linked above, that possibly makes the addon un-usable, with the following error: “Message: InterfaceAddOnsWoWProWoWPro_Frames.lua:631: Cannot find a library instance of “LibDBIcon-1.0”.

Until Jiyambi fixes it, please revert back to the version 2.0.1 for now.

Problem with minimizingI have a little problem when i minimize the addon – whenever I kill something or complete an objective, it “jumps back” to the normal size frame, but the text is stil gone. When I then doubleclick it opens normally (text just appears) and when I doubleclick again it minimizes again – until next time I kill something… This is quite annoying as I minimize it all the time when I do the questing.

Any ideas what can be wrong? I haven’t read about this in the comments (as far down as I managed to read…) so I guess it must be a problem that’s just at me, maybe a conflict with some other addon or something?

It’s called Tukui. It’s aIt’s called Tukui. It’s a compilation package UI, you can get it at wow-interface or tukui.org.

Thanks Diven! I fixed theThanks Diven! I fixed the Quest order mix up and have posted it for the next update. I’m not sure why the way-point is misbehaving. I have it Zone tagged to Orgrimmar. Anyone else have any ideas?

LocalizationHi mates.

First of all: you all did a really great work with that AddOn 🙂

Some of you may know that I’m from germany,
but most of the time I play WoW with the english version enabled.
(german translation/voices are a bit crap sometimes 😉 )

Ok, yesterday I’ve set my client back to german and tried to level a Troll Hunter using
the 01_05_Bitsem_Echo_Isles guide.

The first quests don’t show up in the guide because all of the entries wear a |C| tag,
which is ok, but the english class names don’t match my german ones.

So I replaced the “|C|Hunter|” entries with “|C|Hunter, Jäger|” which didn’t work either.
Then I removed the english classnames, but “Jäger” again wasn’t found by
“class:find(myclass)”.
“Jäger” is what UnitClass(“player”) returns for “Hunter” on a german client.

Ok, at that point I set back my client to english and removed my changes.
A few minutes ago I went through the WoW-Api and found some interesting details for the
UnitClass and UnitRace methods:

both of them return a second value

e.g.:
race, raceEN = UnitRace(“player”)
and
class, classEN = UnitClass(“player”)

the first value contains the localized race/class
and the second value always contains the english race/class

Look at
http://www.wowwiki.com/API_UnitRace
http://www.wowwiki.com/API_UnitClass

for more details, because UnitRace returns “Undead” for the 1st value and “Scourge” for the 2nd value. ô_0
And for UnitClass the second value contains the CAPITALIZED class names (“MAGE”, “WARRIOR”,…).
But this can be “fixed” by using strtolower functions in the AddOn.

btw.
The displayed Questobjectives are autotranslated when I’m using the german client.
This is because you use the QuestLogLeaderBoard methods/values in the AddOn I guess.

cheers
Shaka

I can go to interface options and click on the addons tab to load my current guide, but it doesn’t automatically update anything, quest completion, accepting a quest, nothing.

05-12 Durotar Quest Chain Order Mix UpIn the 05-12 Durotar guide accepting “The Dranosh’ar Blockade|QID|25196” is put ahead of completing and turning in it’s prerequisite “The Burning Blade|QID|25232” which is not completed and turned in until much later in the guide. (It is in fact not turned in until after the final quest of the chain it starts.)

It would seem to make the most sense to accept, complete, and turn in “The Burning Blade|QID|25232”, then accept “The Dranosh’ar Blockade|QID|25196”, either before turning in “Thonk|QID|25227” or after turning in “Watershed Patrol|QID|25188”.

I also noticed that “T Ride to Orgrimmar|QID|6384” shows its way-point in Ashara. Perhaps this is an old version LightHeaded issue, but as coordinates are provided I’m not sure why it would be relying on LightHeaded.
