Cartographer

Table of Contents

This project is abandoned and its default file will likely not work with the most recent version of World of Warcraft. Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).

Are you sure you're not talking about "carbonite" or something like that. I don't think cartographer has ever had a fee for any version. Paying for an addon is just silly.

The current version has a few minor issues. However try the addon for yourself rather than looking at other people's issues.

For those of you still looking for the old Cartographer_mining, Cartographer_herbalism addons (addons that show location of nodes and herbs) Search out GatherMate on wowace or go to the website below
http://www.wowace.com/projects/gathermate/
Itz by the same project leader as those addons hope that helps
Edit: You need to download GatherMate_Data and import the data into GatherMate for the locations of the minerals just incase somebody was wanderin why no nodes are showin at the beginnin.=O

waypoints stopped working a few days ago. enabling and disabling questhelper causes the waypoint arrow to flash briefly on the screen as a block of white pixels. any idea how to fix this?

How do the professions work now with the updated Cartographer? I'm unable to find the Cartographer profession addons for Mining and Herbalism -- they seemed to have been removed from Curse -- and the config options for the updated Cartographer seems to have Professions built in now? But, I don't see that it is working.

I was able to repair professions and add all the new nodes, but i decided it was more work than it's worth when gathermate will do same thing and gets along with cartographer so I didn't bother submitting my hacked versions of mining gas and herb.

If you open GuildPositions.lua in a text editor with line numbers on the left this will be easy. Goto line 183 and change GUILD to NAME and then reload UI and the Guild: Your Name is fixed to Name: Your Name.

Any way to customize the player icons on the map? For instance, I want my party to show up as bright blue dots and my guild mates to show up as dull green. I don't care for how they are color coded by class because it doesn't really matter which class they are when they're just wondering about Azeroth. As it is now it's really difficult to differentiate between party members and anyone else on the map. Also I noticed a typo on the map when you hover over a person it says "guild: charname" then lower in the tooltip it also says "guild: guildname".
