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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).
cartographer or Cartographer3 ?
are there any plans for integrating the loottables into cartographer?
Although it is fun to link all the *old* Naxx drops, since the Naxx map still lists them.
Much love for the mod otherwise. :)
a) doesn't turn at all anymore
b) turns a little if i run around but doesn't seem to consider what direction my char is looking to anymore

I updated all the libs in cartographer and updated the LibRock-1.0 but still no luck.
@joebones The reason herbalism, mining, and treasure have 'disappeared' is because development has halted on those add-ons, since the former developers are now using more actively maintained or more feature rich alternatives, such as GatherMate, Gatherer, etc. It is called comparative advantage, whereas spending time developing those add-ons when a better, more effectively maintained add-on exists is an ineffective use of time.
Your statement that actively developing an add-on is an example of how to "fuck something up" is ridiculous. If the developers did not spend the amount of time they do making bug fixes, patches, and updates to the code, Cartographer would be as extinct as the herbalism, mining, and treasure add-ons are. Add-ons require on-going maintenance in order to remain usable, so if you rather use an orphaned map add-on, go right ahead. Good luck getting it to work after any major patch or API changes.
Herbalism, mining, treasure, etc. have disappeared. Plus, the continuing lack of documentation for either old or new versions makes using this addon difficult. Great example of how to fuck something up by continually "improving" it.
Downloads and usage have already dropped sharply. Won't be surprised to see Cartographer disappear altogether before too long if they keep working on it.

Thanks for all your hard work regardless :)
Any Ideas?
Thx in advance ;)
