WowAce

Since 2.4.1 all the comments and notes I added were deleted (or at least aren't showing up). Also, everything except the map itself turns black whenever I press 'M', and I can't change the map's size, the transparency, move it, or add new notes. It also pops an error message when ever I get on the new Isle.
I guess it's not only me, but I thought that posting about it again won't hurt.

I realy love this addon, it is just SOOO usefull, and I can't get used to playing without it :(
I hope you guys will fix it soon.

I also have been having errors with cartographer. The area around the big map will turn black, i get random error messages and it locks up the game whenever i port to or from the Isle of Quel'danas.

It's an extremely useful addon, but i had to uninstall it until these errors are fixed.

It doesnt allow to view some instances drops when u klick on the instance.. Bug needs to be fixed

To fix attempt to index local 'this' error when using MoveIt, change the file:
Addons\MoveIt\MoveIt_WorldMapFrame.lua
to be like this:
-START-
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

function MoveIt_Fix_WorldMapFrame()

end

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MoveIt_Fix_WorldMapFrame();
-END-

This will disable moveit for world map but also will make the errors go away.

dunno what it all means tho :D

guild positions are not working properly, have to check it still happens with new version wow2.4

I have a problem, not major, but still super annoying. The dragable square mini map (<shift>+<M>, then youll know it) is all covered when i have cartographer on, i annoys me when im grinding and such. >.<

I'm hoping someone can help me. I have successfully been using Cartographer for at least a year and a half now. Yesterday, I downloaded a newer version, installed it, and when I logged into the game, realized it wasn't working. I went to my log in screen and looked to make sure it was still checked. All the various extras (foglight, waypoints, etc.) are there, but they say, "dependancy missing"... when I scroll over it, it says "Cartographer". I thought maybe I didn't pull it out of the folder or something, I went back to check and that wasn't the problem. I now have un-installed and re-installed it from a couple different sites with the same problem. I am not the most computer savvy person out there, but I have been using multiple addon's, this one included for quite some time with no problems. I'm just hoping someone has another suggestion for fixing this. Thanks!

Bug for German Cartographer_InstanceLoot (many instance loottables are no more viewable since the new babble change...):
The bug is, that name parsing on instance maps dont work... on the intance maps (since the new babble) are all boss names on english (have to be german).. so no loot is shown for the german client... all bosses with exact the same names on english and german work well (for example Supremus)...

I found a fix to instance maps.

3 out of 4 of my machines did not show instance maps. I did this fix on the 3 machines and they all work fine now.

eulrik268 mentioned he used http://wowui.worldofwar.net/ to help him install the addons. I don't like anything that auto installs as i like to know whats is changing and being updated.

However i went to the site above and saw that their Cartographer Complete package was recently added, not sure if it was a newer version then what is here though. So i extracted "ONLY" the Cartographer folder from the complete package and copied it right over top of the Cartographer folder i have in my addons folder.

TADA, all machines working like a charm. Makes me wonder what is different in Curse.com download thats borked?

It seems the instance map are not working

Since 2.4.1 I get the following error when accessing my map:
Cartographer_LookNFeel.lua:465 attempt to index local 'this' (a nil value)

I too am experiencing problems with instance maps, all other maps are OK. I have access to 4 computers in which i will run WoW on.

3 of the 4 machines have problems with the instance maps. The one machine which has no problem does not have Mining or Herbalism installed, however i don't think that is the issue as i removed them from another machine and the problem still exists.

Between all the machines i have many flavours of hardware, nvidia, ati, intel, amd, varied resolutions, all use the same graphic settings, there is no consistency here. Why the one machine is fine is odd.

im having the same problem with the instance maps. if anyone knows how to fix this, plz let me know.

Is anyone else having problems with the instance maps they arent being displayed when i try to bring them up some of em work and others dont

i just wanted to make a note

i got this after the 2.4 patch as well as some others and it seems to be conflicting with the UI

there were issues with it crashing people as they clicked a portal, took a summon or hearthed.

i removed each add on specifically as well as backing up every folder and removing that and the only thing that seemed to work was removing cartographer altogether!

which sucks, because i love this add on.

so i just thought id let ya know! maybe you can fix it :) ty

How do you move the button around the mini map to a new location, it interferes with other mods I am running?

I had the previus versions and then i downloaded this new 2.4.0 cartographer and the 2.4.0 quest helper,and they dont work right....in the character select page where the add ons button is...i click that and everything besides the cartographer and quest help have check mark beside them that says out of date? this is all the stuff that goes along with thease 2 to make them work.Whats wrong? I also downloaded auctioneer and that wont even show up anywhere.Plz help me :(

your map notes and your herbalism nodes are kept on the WTF folder in the world of warcraft main folder, so, if you update the addon (wich is in the interface folder) your notes will stay safe, as long as the addon supports the update (some addons, on some cases when the update was too big will not get your preferences and saved data), i'm confident that cartographer does support updates and that your notes will be recognized on a new version.
update away!

(just in case, u can back up your WTF and Interface folders just by coping them to another location, in case you get some sort of error or something and you loose data, you can get that folders back and everything will be back)
