Waypoints

Kushiel · 07-30-07, 02:43 PM

Okay, i have read the FAQ, and scanned through the other posts. and i havent seen anything on way points. Is there any way to set the way points? i havent figured it out yet.

thank you

If you have cords, the format is /tloc 23,34

watch for extra spaces (no space after the coma)

Also, nQuest (i think that is what it's called) will have cords from wowhead.com. These cords can be clicked on to show an arrow that will piont at waypoint.

Last, right clicking on a discovered area on your map (i.e. flight plan, treasure chest, etc...) will show an option to "set as waypoint"

I hope this helps.

I usually type

Code:

/way x y

where x and y are the coords.

I use the /way x,y command myself.

Also, if you want to set up a macro to remove the waypoints I found that /noway will remove them all.

Thank you all, the /way x y seems to work. I tried clicking on them in the quest log, but nothing happned. Thank you for your help.

As a note, /way will create temporary notes, whereas /note will actually create a permananet entry on your map that you can edit and add information to.

You should be able to click on a lightheaded coordinate and have it automatically added as a waypoint. Does anyone else have problems doing that?

It won't add a waypoint without TomTom added, I don't think.

That's not true. It had support for Cartographer waypoints as well. When I made the last release, it was working fine. I haven't been in WoW for a while now, which is why I am asking.

I think something changed with Cartographer that it's not in the same format anymore... I believe LightHeaded has the coordinates as x, y (note the space) but Cart is only accepting x,y or x y now. It's been like this for a little while now.

Though I seem to remember it working sometimes.... Not sure really.... I haven't been using the waypoints lately since I know where I'm going while leveling my alt.

Nothing i clicked on worked, even the blue highlighted ones didnt work, BUT the /way x y DOES work, so thanks again

Lightheaded has code in it that calls cartographer stuff if its loaded, so the format of the slash commands really doesn't apply. I haven't been in game in a while, but next time I am, I'll check whether mine still works.

I am not having any issues with Cartographer Waypoints and Lightheaded. In NQL, I click on the coordinates of the comments of Lightheaded and the big Red Orange Yellow Green arrow show me the way. Also when I make a Waypoint on the Map with a right click option and when I die, I see the arrow pointing me where I should go.

I run Cartographer, Lightheaded, and NQuestLog together and have absolutely no problems generating waypoints from Lightheaded. Perhaps you're running an older version of Cartographer?

obsidianblack · 08-01-07, 03:37 PM

ever since i read that you could click on the coords in nquestlog, i've been using it and it works just great for me. I love it when that little red arrow shows up

!!!

**Seerah** · 08-01-07, 04:53 PM

I tested last night and it does still work.

doc309 · 08-01-07, 06:54 PM

waypoint in lightheaded work for me only if i click the name to reveal the x, y and then click that.

also in cartographer you can ctrl right click anywhere on the map to add a note then set that note as a waypoint.
