Cartographer
CARTOGRAPHER HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED FOR 3.3!!!
DO NOT CREATE BUG REPORTS SAYING IT IS BROKEN!
There are no plans to do any major bug fixes for Cartographer (v2 or v3). If there is an update it will only be a minor fix. (It has already been this way since at least 2008.) Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite. Neither of the two main developers (Ckknight and Arrowmaster) have the time nor desire to do this currently. Occasionally a new version might be released to include fixes made by other developers or new versions of embedded libraries.
Cartographer is a modular, lightweight, and efficient framework for manipulation of the world map. It is based on Rock and other libraries of the WoWAce community.
- Battlegrounds : allows viewing of battlegrounds outside of the zone.
- Coordinates : adds coordinates to the bottom of the world map of the player and the cursor.
- Foglight : Shows unexplored areas on the map. replacement for MozzFullWorldMap or Unexplorer. Much more efficient, though.
- Group Colors : turns all your party's and your raid's POIs into circles colored based on class, and shows a number on them based on their raid group.
- Instance Maps : shows maps of instances.
- Instance Notes : adds boss notes and such to instance maps.
- Look 'n' Feel : allows you to change the transparency, position, and scale of the world map.
- Notes : lets you put notes on the map, similar to MapNotes.
- Zone Info : on hovering over a zone, it will show the levels of the zone, the instances in the zone, their levels, and the group size the instance is made for (e.g. 5-man, 40-man).

Posted May 23, 2008Getting an error upon my death. it's not displaying my "time to corpse". I think this happened with the advent of 2.4.2 but I'm not 100% certain.
error:
...ns\Cartographer\Cartographer_Waypoints\Waypoints.lua line 1111:
attempt to call method 'FormatDurationShort' (a nil value)
Debug:
[C]: FormatDurationShort()
...ns\Cartographer\Cartographer_Waypoints\Waypoints.lua:1111: object_method()
...tographer\libs\LibRockTimer-1.0\LibRockTimer-1.0.lua:289:
...tographer\libs\LibRockTimer-1.0\LibRockTimer-1.0.lua:227
It was really nice to be able to tell my party how long to expect me after death...

Posted May 23, 2008I am using WoW patch version 2.4.2 and I have separately installed versions 65599, 68896, 70829, and 73088. I noticed an odd occurrence that seems to be related to Cartographer. Whenever I group with somebody, it sends a line of gibberish in a whisper to them. Also, any time I open my map or travel to a new area, it sends a different line of gibberish to my guild chat. The problem has to be related to Cartographer as it is the only Add-On I have installed, and removing it solves the problem. Any ideas?

Posted May 23, 2008If it helps, the ones it sends to the guild say "CGPca-sREQUESTs-(area name)". The ones it whispers to groupmates said "QHlp####" where the #'s are garbled text, letters overlayed on other letters.

Posted May 23, 2008Never mind. The guild chat spam is a problem that exists only on private servers. The whisper spam wasn't Cartographer's fault either. Because it was disabled, I forgot QuestHelper was still installed, and it was the culprit.

Posted May 20, 2008Everytime I log in, I get a message that says:
...apher\Cartrographer_GuildPositions\GuildPositions.lua:409: attempt to call method 'IrateGuildMembers' (a nil value). (it pops up in a box and when you hit "OK" it just comes back every few seconds)
The only way I've discovered to get rid of it so far is to completely disable cartographer, which sucks because I really like it and it is really helpful when playing.
Please help!!!

Posted May 20, 2008I am haveing the same problim as lisalila
ever sence 70829.4 when every i try to make the map transparent and not show the borders, QH's on map objectives wount show up. It seems to be something to due with the way cartographer treats QH, like its part of cartographers interface that gos away with the transparincy efect. I wish this wasnt the case because I prefer to have cartographer transparent and have QH's objectives on the map. I would vary much like to see this issue fixed.
thanks

Posted May 18, 2008Eeeeesh! Since the most recent WoW patch, and after installing the latest update for Cartographer, my Quest Helper isn't working (no PoIs with tracking lines), I get an error message window full of stuff from Cartographer when I try to get on a griffon and fly, then I can't fly nowhere... and it's a mess. Sigh.. I put in an official bug report, copying the text of the error msg that keeps popping on this. Hope you folks can figure out what's wrong. I really like Cartographer and Quest Helper.. it's wonderfully useful, when it works right!
