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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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 Dec 12, 2007Is anyone having problems using Cartographer with Fubar at all? I have disabled all addons and then turned them on one by one but as soon as Fubar is turned on Cartographer stops working. Any ideas?

Posted Dec 12, 2007I have the same problem with FuBar and the Cartographer, i have installed MobMap on top of it and that helps me find some NPC's and such however i still dont have coords for some reason. I am looking for another kind of coords program instead.

Posted Dec 11, 2007Is there anyway to set it up to import the MetaMap database with all the npc's / locations ?? Cartographer is great but I miss the MetaMap database (since metamap hasn't been updated since the stone age and has bugs it can't be used well). thanks

Posted Dec 11, 2007I have been using metamap from the beginning and yesterday I was updating all the files in the interface and i came upon Cartographer.
It looks really really good, so isues so far. But is cartographer able to add notes automatically when I mouse over a NPC ?
Metamap had a NPC database that you could access and then add the notes form that npc to the map. I do not see that option in cartographer

Posted Dec 7, 2007Why oh Why is my addons telling me that I have a dependeny missing, and then Ace2 is telling me that Cartographer is missing. I have downloaded this mod 3x and all the extras like Cartographer-Mining ect. Why am I still missing a dependency...and why is it saying Cartographer...BTW I had the old basic version and I had a button in my addons that said Cartographer, now I have all the extras and not plain old Cartographer. Please help me I'm quite upset I apologize for that but, when you've never played without cartographer and you decide to update it and then it doesn't work it's kinda aggrivating.

Posted Dec 7, 2007This addon is great except there is one minor problem I would like to fix. Everything seems to work fine except for the "Group Colors" in PvP. I used to love that addition before patch 2.3, when it used to work. Does anyone know a viable solution to this problem? The player icons on my map just appear as the blizzard default and I have the Group Colors box marked in the options.

Posted Dec 11, 2007you should find the folder located somewhere like: C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns
In the AddOns folder (if you have never added mods) then you will see 6-10 folders named 'Blizzard_*'
when you download this file and unzip it, it is going to be in a folder with the same name as the zip file, open that folder and copy/paste it's contents in your your \AddOns\ folder
good luck

Posted Dec 8, 2007Under your WOW install directory (believe it's C:\Program Files\World Of Warcraft\ by default), you will want to create an Interface folder. Then under that folder, you will want to create an Addons folder.
Then you just need to copy the mods you would like into
C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\Interface\Addons\
Once you do that, launch the game (exit and relaunch if you had it up when doing this). At the character select screen you should now have a button that says "Addons" in the bottom left corner. Click on that button and you can enable/disable addons for all of your toons, or specific ones.
Hope that helps.
