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 Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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

Just a mention to you Mapquest users....Mapquest has gone the way of Cartographer. It isn't being updated and the developers have seen fit ignore all comments and questions on the Curse site.

Ever since Cartographer stopped being updated, I use Mapster and Cromulent. They give me all the functions that I liked from Cartographer.

Very sad = \ It was the best addition to maps and the oldest starting from 1.12. I had just started to play in the WoW on the server don't owned by my country. Ah nostalgia. It hurts me to see that such a powerful project was closed.
Good luck to you guys in all your endeavors, I hope you still come back or we'll see you in another line: p

I have been missing this addon for years, but I think I found a good substitute with CT_Mapmod. I haven't played around with it much but so far it looks like what I needed from Cartographer.

I don't understand why this addon is still on Curse. It has not been updated since 2009. I would suggest that Curse remove this from the site or someone who knows how to write these addons take it over and make it work again.

I suggest to anyone who is downloading addons to take a look at the date that tells you the last time it was updated. If the thing has not been updated for several years, why would you download it?

I miss this add-on also, but, I have found mapster to be a decent replacement. I'd go back to this add-on if it was ever updated.

Since you have no intention or can't be bothered to update the addon accordingly please remove the addon, and all its containing files, from the Curse database, as soon as possible. Thankyou.
