This addon is no longer developed by this team ;) Now only one independent developer.

No virus in Quests41-50.lua. U can see that there is only Quest Data scrapped from WoWHead. So this is false positive. This ZIP is generated by GitHub from source code so its not my upload.

Guys, the developer can now be supported with monthly donations - so if you like and use the addon, please use https://en.liberapay.com/IrcDirk/donate?currency=EUR and set up a monthly donation. Even a small amount is enough, as it shows how much we appreciate the work and when multiple people donate small amounts, it adds up :-)

2nd, again, I totally recommend https://github.com/erikabp123/ClassicAddonManager to keep all your addons up to date. Soon it will work with WowAce (for ie. Skillet) as well.

I will later post to WoWInterface and Curse but i need more stable and fixed version.

Thanks again!!

I also have done Carbonite for Classic, but I went a different route to handling things and in what was removed as unneeded / unnecessary.

That's the beauty of GPL you can have forks and splits and different results for the same thing :P

For anyone who wants to give it a try it's up on the original Carbonite's Github.

Sitta 09-22-19 03:35 AM

Error on change oGLow setting

ircdirk 09-27-19 11:28 AM

Please report issues to github repo: https://github.com/IrcDirk/Carbonite-Classic Describe it more with error log and screenshot. I dont know what do u mean.

ircdirk 11-21-19 11:50 AM

On GitHub repository of Carbonite Classic u can download latest update to Carbonite Classic.

Huge Quest Database update from new data source, its joined with old data source. Now quests should be more accurate, of course not 100% but this should much be better. This needs testing.

Please can any one check on Alliance side how it works.

Kingyoshi9 03-11-20 04:42 PM

Have there been any recent updates to Carbonite? Keep running into many errors with it.

Map icons only appear when moving
 
For some reason my minimap and map icons only appear when I am moving. Quest icons, tracking of nodes, vendors, trainers etc.

Any ideas?

Disable all other addons try only with Carbonite + Modules enabled, it might be incompatibilty with other addon.

Samething occurs. All addons disabled except for the carbonite ones.

It's had me stumped for a while now. Now error messages or anything

Just tested on Classic, no problems on my side.

I am not the only person having this problem. I did a google search and the problem existed prior to classic, just no posts on how it was resolved, or if it was resolved.

No one else is reporting this right now. No such problem on Classic or Retail.

Was reported on your Github last year, no resolution. Seems to be a rare but still occurring since I am reporting it ;)

Thats about world quest (that are not in Classic) and when they somethimes hiding when some overlays are over them selfs. Simple solution to hold Alt then active overlay will not hide. Nothing about hidding icons while moving.

If u can please record this issue and put it on YT. Also try reseting your profile.

Kingyoshi9 07-12-20 08:09 PM

Sorry to sound like a broken record but..

Will there be any new updates to Carbonite Classic?
There are a few things that still don't work, such as Carbonite properly showing maps, objectives etc. in Battlegrounds?

Will you be supporting it to work with the next phase? Phase 5, where AQ20 and AQ40 are released?

I am not sure how much developer time it takes to fix some of these. (Am assuming a couple hours to a few days of time for some of the pending items.)

I would be more then happy to make a larger donation to get some things fixed..

Maps in Dungs and Battlegrounds not working since start. Didnt have time to fix it. Dont know if this event posible to fix in classic since API is restricted.

Kingyoshi9 07-16-20 12:55 PM

I took a quick look.
It looks like a number of the functions needed to get it working (or at least partially working) are available in classic.
I can understand why this is such a large project.

UnitInBattleground
GetBattlefieldEstimatedWaitTime
GetBattlefieldFlagPosition
GetBattlefieldInstanceExpiration
GetBattlefieldInstanceInfo GetBattlefieldInstanceRunTime
GetBattlefieldPortExpiration
GetBattlefieldScore
GetBattlefieldStatData
GetBattlefieldStatInfo
GetBattlefieldStatus
GetBattlefieldTeamInfo
GetBattlefieldTimeWaited
GetBattlefieldWinner
GetBattlegroundInfo
GetBattlegroundPoints

Source: https://wow.gamepedia.com/Global_functions/Classic

I can understand why maps in instances are not working. I do not believe the API for dungeon maps was made available until much later on. But PVP it was, since I played back in vanilla and had a few addons that modified battleground maps.

ircdirk 07-17-20 11:54 PM

Ill check thouse functions later this month.

Kingyoshi9 12-02-20 10:15 AM

ircdirk 12-02-20 12:48 PM

Not getting any feed back about new problems. There was release of Shadowlands, so no time for Classic. Im only dev for both Retail and Classic...

Kingyoshi9 01-11-21 08:25 AM

Will you be updating it once Burning Crusade is released?
I believe the original developer had working versions of Carbonite back when Burning Crusade was released/ (In fact, if I am not mistaken, it was Burning Crusade when Carbonite first began to be developed.)

jeffy162 01-14-21 06:54 AM

It doesn't matter if there was an original version of Carbonite then, this version of WoW Classic is way different than the original. You have to hope that the dev's will have the time to update THIS version of Carbonite! About all you can realistically do is ... stay tuned (and, of course, have hope! ). :o

I understand that classic client is actually a version of the retail client. However, since there should be an older Version of this addon for Burning Crusade, it could make updating this version a bit easier, as you may have old code you can use as a starting point, rather then having to recreate everything from scratch.

Software development can be greatly misunderstood.

Thats bad assumption. Old Carbonite cant be used with new Classic client, code is not compatibile.

If TBC will come to Classic then ill think about updating it. We dont even have a date for TBC.

I mean no disrespect but I completely understand.
I had worked with a team that had to take an old application written completely in cobalt and have it updated to C.

Since we had the original source, the developers had an easier time producing new code using the same logic from the old code.
It is massively easier then having to reverse engineer the entire application and start from scatch.

For example, when reverse engineering malware, it is much more challenging then just writing a program from scratch, since you have to try reverse engineering it and try to understand the logic that the original developer used when creating it.

Sure thing, but old Carbonite code is completly unusable in this case, as there were so many changes since then.

OK.
Hopefully you can build on the current iteration of the addon and there aren't too many changes when TBC comes out. :)

Kingyoshi9 08-10-21 01:09 PM

Any updates regarding getting maps working in battlegrounds and Arenas?

Kingyoshi9 09-30-21 05:14 PM

Guess carbonite for TBC is abandoned?

Still doesn't work in battlegrounds..
And is missing almost all of the outland and TBC quests.

ircdirk 09-30-21 10:33 PM

No, its not... Lastest release is 17 days old => https://github.com/IrcDirk/Carbonite-Classic/releases

I would like to thank you and everyone who has worked on carbonite. Carbonite is to me a essential addon and I have been trying to get it to work on 1.14.1 Classic = 15 hours drunken problem solving (It feels like it should work since it's just going back to the old wow and 1.13 shouldnt be far from 1.14, but I guess there has to be some small customization to get it working.

I am prepared to pay some money to just get an update and I'd like to help organize finding someone else to keep the updates coming if you dont have time. (I say that, knowing that you're probably the only prospect.

I want to play wow, i look forward to it so much - But i'm not going to play with questie and tomtom which basically doesnt work. I will need Carbonite. It's amazing to me that you made carbonite 10x times better than Questie 10 years before.

Contact me if you'd like. We need to support you and many will.

Love you,
Tastlie
