There is absolutely no difference between an addon on a Mac, and the same addon on a PC. They are the exact same addon. Addons are "operating system indifferent".

Thumbs up Yay!

I've been checking Curse and WowInterface everyday for an update since the patch and only just now thought of checking the forum!

I love Carbonite and have a hard time playing without it (is there anything that is nearly as good?). I did pay for a year long subscription when it first came out and its good to see that there is some development effort being directed to this. Thanks for sharing this!

Smile My hat is off...

... to Rythal and all the rest who have been helping out our gaming community. Well done. There's always a period of adjustment after an expansion and it's preload of patches, and we'll continue to suffer the occasional setbacks and user confusion, but with the kind of cohesive support and assistance we see happening here, we'll all weather it fine.

I see many hands reaching out here... a nice contrast to some of the not-so-honorable acts I see displayed from time to time within the game. Again, kudos to you all.

Now for my question: I noticed that the Hunter tracking doesn't seem to be showing on the maps now. Am I missing a check or addition somewhere? Is it a bug that just needs to be worked out? Has anyone else noticed a problem with it? My appologies if this question has already been answered, and I missed it.

Thank you again.

I think earlier, Rythal was asking about places that showed up blank on the map... I have found two: Wyrmrest Temple and the Ebon Hold (DK starting area).

I also want to say thanks! I really appreciate all of the work you are doing to update Carbonite.

Hey all I've been using Carbonite for many many years now and Rythal what you've been doing, I just wanted to say thanks, also I've noticed many bugs over the past few days (even after the fixes).

1st bug is in the starting zones atleast Tauren and Orc i've seen is the map transparency is that it looks as if the zone is completely zoned out but see the quest area and where you have to go to complete the quest etc. when i put my cursor over it i see the map like i normally do when i'm in Org, Dal or anywhere else.

2nd bug is if i go into a cave or tunnel of sort the map loses my location and shows me running all over azeroth as if i'm quickly traveling over a large area. If i stop moving it then finds me and shows where i am but at times it can just stay like that.

3rd bug (and its been around for a long long time) is if i'm in an instance of sorts, DM, HoT, ZA, ZG etc. the map is completely zoomed out and i have to zoom in to see the instance map, but when i finish the instance and zone into Org my map is completely zoomed in and have to zoom back out to the normal zoom.

4th bug certain BG's Alterac Valley & Isle of Conquest i've noticed there is no map and thus have to use Alt+M and use the standard map in those BG's

5th bug the carbonite map no longer shows mining or herb nodes and i have to make the minimap (my little square block on carbonite's map) and make it larger if i'm farming herbs or ore.

I took the sceenshots but didn't want to spam up the forum so here's a link to them all. (they're all zipped up since theres like 7 screenshot) http://tiny.cc/p2s9jw

Again thanks and hopefully these bugs will be fixed

There is no map for those zones anymore. Blame blizzard deciding to make them separate from the world. It was either have quest trackers break and say your 60000 yds from objective, flood the map with "city" style maps, or leave it.

It's a limitation of the system, an instace might be scaled at a rate of 0.4yds and the map needs to be zoomed to see it, the regular world is scaled at a rate of ~6 yds.. some instances might even be really small and scale at ~11 or ~12yds.. the game does not give information on what the scale is so there is no auto setting it.

Are they truely gone, or are you just saved at old map locations, try turning on the "Follow You" Map option while in the BG to see if it's just moved.

I was planning on trying to fix this over this weekend, bringing the newer POI's the minimap displays into the carbonite map (carbonite's options are quite outdated for what it thinks the minimap might display)... but, someone has mentioned to me they heard from the original authors and we might have a real release this weekend, and i'm not sure I want to put more hours into something that will be dead in the water when the real devs finally release one.

Unhappy Weird minimap problem

I'm having a weird problem with my minimap. When I mouse over the mini I see everything fine, but when I take the mouse away it turns all yellow. I have messed around with all the transparency settings to no avail. My wife also uses Carbonite (updated to your latest build) and does no have this problem. Is it a setting I am missing somewhere?? I am attaching pics to show my problem.

P.S. HUGE thanks for updating this addon!!! You are the best!

It's the area your in / zoom level, as I mentioned above start area's have no overlay map... you need to either zoom in enough the detailed map shows up or zoom out enough the zone map it's attached to pops up. Playing with the slider controlling what level of zoom detail pops up should help too

The only problem I am having is with my map/mini map. It just freezes when I use it, and I can't see outside that zone. It doesn't even show my character marker.

When I try and zoom out, I can't see any of the rest of the world map. It doesn't show icons (like where a mailbox is). And when I run carbonite to start up, I get this:

You didn't install the fan update right, I can tell because GetNumRaidMembers does not exist anywhere in the fan update since blizzard got rid of it.

Really Appreciate The Fan Update

Rythal,

Thank you so much for doing a fan update of Carbonite. I would have gone crazy without the addon. I however have noticed that some of the quests have extra blank objective listings i.e. quest called Breaking The Code where you need to get the bug brain. Also, my frame rates are jumping all over the place from 50 to 82 at all times. Not sure if that has anything to do with the addon or not but did not happen before I installed it and I am not about to not use the addon either.... Any suggestions?

Thanks again,
TigerBoi77

Problems with my Carbonite

First of all, thank you for updating this addon, since everyone says it's working for them.

Question #1, What do i do with the old carbonite addon, do i remove all of it? their name is:
Carbonite
CarboniteItems
CarboniteNodes
CarboniteTransfer

I think this is only me because i never see someone complaining about it, I was thinking about removing all the old carbonite addons, and i did, then i put the only folder that you gave us on the addon folder of world of warcraft and when i go in-game, when i press "M" to see the map, nothing happens, and i never get any LUA errors. Maybe this is happening because i removed all the old carbonite addons, please tell me what to do.

You keep the original addon, and put the files in this zip into the carbonite folder, to overwrite the original files, then it works for you
