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 Cartographer(v2) uses an outdated framework that will not be updated in the case of major breakages so Cartographer(v2) would require a complete rewrite.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).

Posted Feb 5, 2008That is an error with Cartographer_QuestObjectives which is a completely different addon and not part of the basic Cartographer core. Report it to the Cartographer_QuestObjectives author, not here.

Posted Feb 3, 2008Yet another problem: inside instances, the icons are not where they should be. They seem to be shifted more to the top. I think it could be a problem with widescreen.

Posted Feb 1, 2008Im having the same problem as reported before, the map wont zoom in or out.
Is there a solution for this prob?
Edited
The problem is caused by addon named "Coords":
http://www.curse.com/downloads/details/10470/
I am now in search of a small mod that is showing my position on UI.
Using titan but titancoords gets mixed up on map with Cartographer coords.

Posted Jan 31, 2008I dunno, but the new upgrade is driving me insane. Things are flickering, can't find things, and it's very confusing. I'm about ready to uninstall it and go back to the old one.

Posted Feb 5, 2008I'm not sure but I think I remember MoveIt doing improper hooking and that would explain the error. Try disabling MoveIt.

Posted Jan 29, 2008Is there a way to temporarily disable the foglight so I can see which areas of the map I haven't yet explored?

Posted Jan 30, 2008I chose the solution to set the foglight to a color very similar to the original one (like the style^^), and set it to about 50% transparency, so I can see clearly which areas not explored yet, and still see what's under the fog =)
