FuBar_QuestsFu

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 Whether this project is out of date or its author has marked it as abandoned, this project is no longer maintained.

WARNING: I don't actively use this myself any more. I wrote BetterQuest which I now use instead. If you're not incredibly wedded to FuBar, I'd recommend switching.

This is a quest-tracker replacement plugin for FuBar. It provides a tooltip which replicates /most/ of the information from the quest log. It can display (or not): quest level, difficulty, objectives, zones, and suchlike. It will put quest information into the tooltips for quest monsters and items. It will make quest levels appear when talking to NPCs.

If other people in your party are using QuestsFu it'll show you how many of each quest objective they've gathered.

If you want it to, and don't think it will annoy people, you can send a message to party chat when you advance a quest objective.

Shift-click on quests in the tooltip to copy the title to the chatbox if it's open. Control+Shift-click on quests in the tooltip to copy their objectives and status to the chatbox if it's open. Control-click on quests in the tooltip to share them with your party. Alt-click on quests in the tooltip to add them to Blizzard's quest-tracker.

QuestsFu includes a replacement for the Blizzard built-in quest tracker, which can track more than 10 quests at a time. Right-click on it to adjust its scale and coloration. (Or alt-right-click if you've locked the tracker.)

Achievements show up in QuestsFu's tracker. Ain't that cool?

Certain thanks must be given to MonkeyQuest, which motivated me to write this by being everything that I wanted in a quest-tracker replacement while annoying me by putting a frame over a quarter of my screen.

I keep getting an error message when I log in: ..\lib\LibTourist-3.0\LibTourist-3.0.lua:20 Cannot find a library instance of "LibBabbleZone-3.0" In my QuetsFu\Lib directory there is such a library, but the tourist lib cannot seem to find it. I tried copying the LibBabbleZone into both the lib directory underneath LibTourist and LibStub directory underneath LibTourist as well but it cannot seem to see it.

Opposite Problem - how do I get rid of the Blizz Quest tracker? I want to use only the Questfu tracker (its enabled). But I can't find an option to hide the one from Blizz.

But anyway - great you are working on this. Thank you!

Using the latest version, but there's still problems with the tracker.
Everytime I log on, the Blizzard tracker is not visible.
I have to do Enable/Disable "Use own tracker" in the menu, in order for the Blizzard tracker to show up.

QuestFu's own tracker doesn't work properly either.
It doesn't remove completed quests even though that option is active.
It starts tracking random quests when you abandom/complete other quests. Often quests that normally can't be tracked (no objectives).

OK - the Blizzard Quest tracker is successfully supressed with the 404 build :)

But the Blizzard Informations when you progress dailies for example aren't supressed. This means that you have the informations twice. One in the Area which you have adjusted in QuestFu (Raid-Warning for example) and the blizzard one

I'm having some issues with quests not being added to the list when they are picked up. Also, the usual problem that everyone else is having where Blizzards quest tracker doesn't pay attention to settings and keeps displaying :(

here is a diff that seems to fix the issue with Blizzard Informatoin and standard quest tracker fully being supressed. Not sure if it is the correct fix or not. Someone at wowinterface did the changes and posted it in the comments there..

I'm experiencing the same thing. I use the QuestsFu tracker, but the Blizz Tracker keeps popping up, even though I have everything except for "Instant Quest Text" unchecked in the UI options.

When I move the quest tracker around it gets stuck to my mouse cursor and I am forced to alt-f4 close the client. Is there a button I can click to get it to stop?
