TomTom Issue..

Daniel Macbeth · 07-21-09, 07:57 PM

Hello there.

I am having some issues with TomTom. The arrow in-game will not pop up! I have successfully added and installed the addon with no problems what so ever, and there is no folder layer errors either. When I enter the characters screen and open up the "Addons" tab it sais that TomTom is activated, but in game there is nothing at all showing up. When I try typing in the "/tomtom" command I can not even press Enter.. It is REALLY wierd.

My OS is : Windows Vista Home Premium

Thanks in advance!

What version of the addon are you attempting to use? Do you get any errors? (Ensure that lua errors are not hidden via the Interface Options.)

I am using the latest version (3.1)
(http://www.wowinterface.com/download...32-TomTom.html)

And no, I do not recieve any errors at all...

I am recieveing an error now. It sais that TomTom is a "Nil Value"

3.1 is the current WoW version that TomTom is coded for. What version of TomTom are you using? Current version is r216. If you're not sure which you have, then open up TomTom.toc.

As for your error, there are probably others you are getting before that. Download and install BugGrabber/BugSack so you can get a stack trace for all of them. Either something is failing to load, you're not using the current version of the addon, or you're not using the current version of WoW.

I am using the most current version of tomtom with patch 4.0-4.0.1 and I cannot get the arrow to show up on my screen. I'm running Windows 7 home premium

I am having the same problem. When I type /tomtom I get /help .....I have downloaded Tomtom straight from Curse, assuming this is the correct Verizon. Why won't it work. I used to have it and it worked fine. I am also using Windows 7 home version.

Make sure you have "load out of date" checkbox checked at the addon selection screen before you login to the game.
[Addons] button at bottom left in character selection screen then top right of AddOns list for the checkbox.

I think TomTom author hasn't yet updated the addon interface number.
(that doesn't necessarily mean the addon is not working, it just means the game sees it as 'out of date' and doesn't load it by default)

I can report that TomTom works fine with 5.3 Escalation if you enable load out of date addons.
