TG no longer pointing the way

mosaickn...@gmail.com (cherapple) — Sat, 13 Jun 2009 14:30:03 UT

Since the latest time that I updated my addons, about a week ago, Tour
Guide is no longer pointing the way to guide locations. This is fine
with quest turn-ins because I can just click on the quest and
Carbonite will give me a dotted line to point me in the direction to
go. But TG used to lead me to NPCs to pick up quests and other

It would require a major rewrite of the quest tracker to get this to work,
and it's really an edge case that very few people have needed, so it's not
really been worth the time to implement.
A simpler approach would be to make an automatic waypoint share mode in
TomTom... you add a WP, it's sent to the party, etc.

Thank you for the prompt reply, Tekkub. Yes, this is what we are
doing, he leads and I follow.
It's just sometimes it's inconvinient, like he need to go to a
restroom and he puts me on follow and I don't know where to go. It's
all solvable with the send waypoint to party from TomTom as I
mentioned below, but I thought that *doing less* in the TourGuide

TG is not designed to work that way, it has to track quests using the quest
log. If he's running TG and TomTom, why not just have him lead and you
follow?

"Repeat" mode in the TourGuide

Hello,

There may be a combination of options that can allow this, but I
haven't found this so far. Basically the problem is as follows: I
finish a quest guide, so I have all the quest done and objectives
fullfilled. Next, I want to run this guide again with a friend. He has
the addon, and can follow it directions, but the problem is, that

Nevermind! Didn't know it was configurable from the regular UI menu.

Cheers!

I can't seem to find how to move the pop-out. What's the trick?

Thanks!

Yes, all you need to do is change the macro generator.

Tekkub,

Thank You for making useful and uncomplicated mods for wow. I really
apprechiate how easy it is to implement your add-ons. I do have one
minor question. I use a N-52 and have settled on using the ALT key as
a modifer for my macros to reduce the number of keybinds I need to
make.

I'd like to make a RAF guide, specifically tailored to doing quests with
someone semi-afk following you... but I don't have someone to recruit nor
the money to pay for my own.

Re: [Tekkub WoW] Editing lua files - known completed quests

Adding the QIDs should be enough, but I'm not sure if that will work or not.
If you know the quests you've done, it's probably simplest to just load the
guide and skim over it checking off everything you've done. Faster than
looking up QIDS or exact names, that's for sure.

[Tourguide] [Feedback] Absolutely awesome.

I'm in love with Tekkub mods. I've recently returned to WoW after a
lengthy hiatus with my wife, and both of us decided to try out some
Alliance toons (we were always Horde). We rapidly found out how lost
we were. Level 6 quests would suddenly move us to level 10 quests --
at level 20, we were struggling against level 28 mobs to complete the

bassli...@gmail.com (Awal of Turalyon) — Wed, 20 May 2009 14:01:46 UT

1) Take the 77_78_Sholazar_Basin.lua file and copy it to the horde
folder
2) open the file with a text editor (notepad NOT ms word)
3) change
TourGuide:RegisterGuide("Shola zar Basin (77-78)", "The Storm Peaks
(78-80)", "Alliance", function()
to

Editing lua files - known completed quests

twenty8twe...@googlemail.com (Maki) — Wed, 13 May 2009 19:37:25 UT

I was wondering if anyone knew or could direct me to a guide on how to
correctly update/edit the global and character Lua files?

I have a list of quests that I know that I've done, and instead of
ticking them off the list in-game (as there are a lot) I am hoping
there is a way to add them to 'completed' lua files found in the
