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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).
The addon works great, but i cannot zoom into other zones. if i zoom out passed the Continent level or try to view a different area it takes me back to the zone I'm currently in.
not sure what section of Look 'n' Feel caused it though.
I must say this - Thank you. I've been using Cartographer for a long time, and didn't realize just how much I'd taken its functionality for granted until I had to go without it for an (almost) week. Thanks for taking the effort to make it work again.
one is zygor's guide showing dot on the map to know where are the quest.. and the other is cartographer.. it seems one is affecting the other one. The latest installed works well but make the other one not running..
Anyone know the reason?
its WTF\Account\accname\SavedVariables\Cartographer.lua
btw but that only fixes POI issues afaik.

What is the problem?
I have delete the WTF, and disabled all other Addons. but nothing works ...
Thanks for the report
This may be a conflict between the new content that has been added to various areas and the Foglight...
While exploring Eastern Plaguelands, I was repeatedly opening and closing my World Map to check to make sure I was heading in the right direction and noticed that small patches of the map were being overlayed onto eachother, basically making a copy of one area over another...
In my case, the area around Light's Hope Chapel was being super-imposed over Corin's Crossing and Vice Versa.
It wasn't a permanent bug either, the more times I opened and closd my map, the areas would revert back to what they are supposed to be, then the next time I opened the map, the area would have been overlayed with another area of the map again...
I'm guessing it may be something to do with the Foglight Module since it only seems to be small sectioned areas that are being superimposed elsewhere...?
It strikes me as a very small bug that can easily go unnoticed at first glance and may not have been fixed in Cart 2.3, but has anyone else noticed this?
