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 Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).

especially since they use their own servers to host the add-on (if the author requests it and does not have his own space).

Can you no longer resize the map using drag on the borders? I got the Alt-whatever it was but since I can no longer zoom in on it, when the map becomes smaller, as does all the text, etc. Pls advise. Thanks.

You can't right click while the map is locked to zoom out.
I noticed this issue something like 8 months ago, chalked it up to a bug and got carbonite instead.

It is a 100% deal breaker for me, I cannot stand having my map either A) unlocked or B) unzoomable.

Other than that, great mod, truly. Unfortunately I have to once again go back to carbonite, which is ugly and unwieldy...

Just came here after alot of testing to report the same thing Bendable just stated. Although i don't use Questhelper I do use MobMap, and having Cart and MobMap both enabled is what does it for me.

Since the 3.1.1 patch I have had a bug whereby the use of Cartographer, along with Questhelper, prevents certain menus from working inside instances. (Specifically, this bug was tested using the trade menu and the Enchanting->slots pull-down menu, although other menus were also reported as being problematic. I have narrowed down the interaction of these two addons through extensive testing, using cartographer-2.5.3 and Questhelper versions 0.105, 1.0.10-beta, and 1.0.12-rc.) This bug also affects several friends with the same addons, on both PC and Mac platforms. Deleting the Interface, WTF, and Cache directories did not resolve the issue.

A temporary work-around is to simply disable one or the other addon, although I hope that future versions will resolve this problem.

Looking forward for an update that will include Ulduar.
And.. is The Violett Hold really at the level recommendation of 80? Not 75-78?
Besides that, i've got a problem with the POI thing. The blue points are bugged.

Great addon, but one thing that ticks me off, is the inability to right click inside instances. Started right after ulduar patch.

I just can't right click on anything while in instance even if I disable most of the additional features. I have to disable the entire add on before entering an instance and thats irritating.

I hope there will be a fix soon, otherwise, great add on :)

None of those are part of Cartographer. And most of those were discontinued years ago.
