Moncai Quest Tracker
Moncai Quest Tracker
I have been developing my modified quest tracker over the past few years. Each time Blizzard updated it's tracker, I updated mine with it. Coded from the ground up again for patch 3.3 and adapted to 4.0.1, I'm releasing it here so others may benefit.
New release
- Beta 4.0.1 is live and fixes issues with some quests and adds the option to show quest ID's
- Beta 4.0.0 is live and should fix (hopefully all) Cataclysm incompatibilities.
- Beta 3.3.3.2 (r36) is live. This fixes Questguru compatibility, collapsed tracker width and re-introduces the buddy system (at a basic level).
Current features
- New: Tracker is optionally movable and you may choose to display Item buttons on the left side, see config (/mqt) under "Placement"
- Tracker shows levels and colors but still stays true to the original by Blizzard
- Includes all the questing goodies Blizzard has put into the 3.3.3 update
- If you quest with someone else who has this tracker, you can track their progress
- Works with QuestHelper 1.3.x, reflecting the order in which to do the quests (version 1.3.10 tested)
- Works with Tourguide style addons by using built-in proximity sorting
- Shift-click a header in the Questlog to toggle the watches for all quests under that header
- Access the configuration screen by typing /mqt in the chat window or via "Game Menu"-"Interface"-"Addons"
- A few features I have missed
QuestHelper integration
For a successfull integration with QuestHelper, please mind the following things:
- Please use version 1.3.7 or higher of QuestHelper
- Make sure it's enabled in the configuration screen (type /mqt to access it)
- Disable the built-in tracker of QuestHelper, either via it's configuration menu or via the slash command "/qh track" (without the quotes).
Since QuestHelper is no longer actively developed, you may also want to disable the integration and then Right-Click the WatchFrame header ("Objectives") and in the pop-up menu select "Proximity" under "Sort Quests". Tip: this also works well with Tourguide based addons
Upcoming features
For now I consider the tracker fairly feature-complete except for the buddy leveling-system which I hope to extend in the future. If you have ideas, feel free to create a ticket on wowace describing your wanted feature.
Beta, what does that mean?
Oh yes, there will be bugs! Since I am only one person it's impossible for me to test every setup or addon-combination. If you like, please give it a try, and help me make the addon better. Your feedback is kindly appreciated!

Posted Oct 17, 2014Hi Are you going to update this for 6.X?
I know you guys do this in your spare time so just wondering :)

Posted Oct 18, 2014Yes, I am going to! Thanks for understanding my time limits. This addon is tightly integrated into Blizzard's own code so needs extensive rewriting after a major patch. Stay tuned!

Posted Jun 2, 2014Sadly the addon is freezing my client while entering senario while the tracker is being floated. I have to end the task to get out of it :( I've verified this with only quest tracker installed.

Posted Nov 11, 2013Is this addon responsible for duplicate "Discovered: ...." messages with white font? I don't at least remember seeing them before today when i installed it.
By the way only reason i got the addon was for the quest items on left side in tracking list. It is the only functionality i need from quest mods, and installing QuestHelper would've added much more bloat than this.

Posted Sep 27, 2013Everytime I get a quest with "On Warchief's Command" in its name (sorry, I do not know if this is the exact name in english, because I have no US client) from the big board in one of the main cities in the quest tracker 3 grey "quests" with "[nil] in their name and "--" in their description appear under the received quest. I have ensured that they appear nowhere else. Please fix this - it is extremely annoying because I can not remove them!

Posted Sep 15, 2013Does it help you track quests by zone? I'm hoping that i can find an addon that will help me make sure i've done all the quests of the zone I'm or of any particular zone I've been in in the past.

Posted Jul 6, 2013Finally I found what I was looking for, thought I was SOL. I hate the Blizzard tracking, definitely glad to see someone has taken the time to make this addon. I am downloading it now and I hope to keep it indefinitely or until you stop working on it :S!

Posted Jun 17, 2013I just installed Moncai Quest Tracker and when I log on to my charater, the chat window tells me that your addon has loaded but it doesn't appear on my screen. How do I get it to come up? I tried it with no other addons and nothing. By the way, typing '/mgt' in chat only brings up a message that tells you to type 'Help' for the commands that are available.
