WowAce

Admitted total noob - I tried addons (actually, just Cartographer) for the first time in 2.3. Now I want to update - but it occurs to me that if I do, I'm going to lose all my little notes and map icons that I've so carefully placed, as well as my herbalism nodes.

I've searched for Cartographer FAQs (the Ace page leads to a random message, but no FAQ: http://www.wowace.com/wiki/Cartographer/FAQ), I've read forums - everyone is talking about bugs, but no one walks through the actual update.

And for all those who will flame me with using Ace updater, I've read enough horror stories to believe I ought to update my single addon by myself.

So can anyone give me some guidance? Is there a folder I need to save? Thanks.

oo and one last thing.you all have minor problems,see mine its big.!i cant see my main which has ALL my gold/enchants/armour EVERYTHING!='[ plz any ideas?

umm.yes!i recently found out about this after getting questhelper and (somehow)when i installed it,my whole character was like screwed,i couldnt see him,wasnt able to control where he moved because it moved auto.can you help me here?

I downloaded the addon, and when i go into WoW the addon button is there. The cartographer is also there, but to the right it says "Dependency Missing". I go into the game thinking it will work, but when i open the map its the same.

make sure you have the whole cartographer package active in your wow. cartographer is modular, so you can have some parts active and some not (instance loot, or professions and so on), but you need the basic parts active for the others to work.. so, best option is to look at the dependencies of the addon with the Dependency missing error (hover your mouse over the name and in the left you can see the dependencies) and activate them.

Is there a way to get the nodes automatically?

Got this error today, couldnt toggle map on/off with M, it just toggled coords on/off.

how do you set a note?

Love the mod, but i updated to the newest version of it and now it no longer tracks mining or herb nodes than i get. I have tryed disabling all other mods and it still doesnt work, any ideas?

Great mod, Thank you

It must just be me, because I don't see any other comments about this. Why can i not navigate betwen maps. A Right click, or the menu bar do not work.

If you are talking about what I think, I had a similar problem. I could not right click to zoom out or click on a border zone to change the view. I was just playing with all the options and found that for some reason when the window lock is on it does this. So, try unlocking it and see if it works (the key icon to the right of the Cartographer button).

When setting a note as a waypoint, I was wondering if there is a way to have a arrow/pointer type thing on the minimap? If a waypoint is set, is there a way to show that note on the worldmap as highlighted in someway to distinguish it? Also, is there any way to adjust the size of the waypoint display arrow? Thank you

Everytime I mouse over a guild member, it throws an error about libcrayon3.0 trying to make a number comparison to a nil...

Anyone else having that issue...?

Here is a link to the map I'm talkign about. How do i turn it off? http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f302/Shonnyg/untitled1-6.jpg

Shift-scroll.

Okay, I open the map - installed Cartographer all right too - and I roll my cursor over a Guild Member on the map and this comes up.
Mind you, it shows a white icon - no name or class color shows up.
I downloaded the one available above.

How may I fix this?

I looked at the file that's causing the error and it looks like it's some kind of Burning Crusade / pre-Burning Crusade bug. This is causing the first error:

if class then
if BC then
return BC:GetColor(class)
elseif old_BC then
return old_BC:GetColor(class)
end
else
return 0.8, 0.8, 0.8
end

And this the second:

if class then
if BC then
return BC:GetHexColor(class)
elseif old_BC then
return old_BC:GetHexColor(class)
end
else
return "cccccc"
end

If you have some experience with programming you can fix it by removing the above code and keeping the default value (return 0.8, 0.8, 0.8 or return "cccccc") but to keep it simple for you replace your "\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Cartographer\libs\LibRollCall-2.0\LibRollCall-2.0.lua" with this (you can edit it by right clicking the file and choose "Open With" and then select "Notepad", then copy the text below (select it with your mouse and press CTRL-C) and paste it in your notepad while the old code is gone):
