  • About FlightMap
  •  

FlightMap is all about the flights you take in the World of Warcraft. It draws lines on the continent maps, showing you visually where you can fly from each zone as you mouse over them, as well as showing a window listing all the available destinations, their costs and their flight durations. On the zone level map, flight masters appear as small boot icons, allowing you to see where they are. During flights, a castbar-alike progress bar will show you how long is left on your current journey.

Use /fmap or /flightmap to bring up the options window, or use the myAddons support.

The timer bar is movable if you hold down SHIFT and drag it.

Many thanks to Thorarin (aka Marcel Veldhuizen) who not only reported bugs, but also reported their fixes, and who supplied the Alliance default data. Thanks also to Simon, who has helped immensely with the German translations. And of course, thanks to everyone who downloaded betas, put up with bugs and helped me fix them!

BETA NOTES: 1.9-3beta147 adds two new "/fmap" subcommands: "/fmap lock" to prevent FlightMap from learning any more flight times, and "/fmap open" to open up the flight map window. It also should correctly remove Valor's Rest for translated versions.

1.10-1beta151 updates for the 1.10 patch. See below for 1.10-1 notes. This is flagged BETA because the test servers went down two hours earlier than the live servers, which was two hours earlier than I expected. It *should* work -- but it might not.

    Yeah dhask, perhaps you could default to showing the right bit of a string if its too long to show in the box? The destination name of the new island is so long you can't see the numbers :)

  • May 6, 2008, 10:11AM (2 months ago)

    Anyone know how to make the flight time "box" wider?
    Some locations are too long to fit in the box which is kind of annoying.

    I turned off the FlightMap timer bar and use the flight timer bar from Quartz (it still uses the FlightMap data, but allows whatever size you want for a bar)

  • May 28, 2008, 10:08PM (1 month, 1 week ago)

    How did you do that? because I have the following problem:

    I'm using the latest version from the Ace Website and have a problem with the flight module... I use FlightMap and Quartz hooks in and correctly shows a timer bar for the remaining flight duration using the castbar... but I also see the flight timer bar of Flight Map in the middle of the screen... how do I get rid of that? Don't know why the standard flight bar is shown, too... I did NOT have this issue when using eCastingBar.

    Anyone knows help? Some setting I missed in the options somewhere?

    Grizzly_UK, that isn't really an issue with the addon. The addon has its information of where on the world map the flight points are located, now that the map has changed, it has caused a slight displacement. All you have to do to "fix" it, is visiting the affected flight points again.

    I also have a suggestion/bug report. When you get summoned (and accept) in the middle of a flight path, the time is recorded where you got summoned off the path, causing it to be much shorter. Could you "fix" this?

    Most of the flight masters in Outland seems to be missing, will these be added?

  • April 13, 2008, 11:20PM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    FlightMap will learn the locations of flight masters it doesn't have in its default set as you talk to them. I play Horde, so I can add the Horde masters, but the Alliance masters are a mystery to me.

    oXid_FoX, sorry, I did receive that, but I didn't make the time to incorporate it. I will do a point release to also try and fix the problem Grizzly_UK is talking about.

    Grizzly_UK, I haven't flown anywhere in the Eastern Kingdoms since 2.4 launched.

  • April 13, 2008, 03:24AM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    Ah, well if you haven't flown anywhere in the Eastern Kingdoms yet then you wouldn't have seen the problem with the northern flight points showing in the wrong locations! I look forward to the next release and hope that you are able to fix this problem.

  • April 11, 2008, 01:55PM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    okay, I've sent you a new update ;)

  • April 10, 2008, 03:57PM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    I've done an update of french localization... how can I send you ? I've already sent at the mail mentioned in language files many days before you've update the addon, and it seems you don't receive it...

    @ Dhask:
    A simple version bump does not fix the problem with incorrectly placed flight map positions! Did you miss the part about patch 2.4 adding the Isle of Quel'Danas? This has resulted in a map adjustment of the Eastern Kingdoms. Now, for example, the flight point for Light's Hope Chapel is shown on the world map as being in Ghostlands and the Zul'Aman flight point is showing on the world map in Eversong Woods. Other flight points are also affected, particularly those north of Menethil.

  • April 9, 2008, 01:20PM (2 months, 3 weeks ago)

    i fix:

    us FLIGHTMAP_QUELDANAS = "Isle of Quel'Danas"
    de FLIGHTMAP_QUELDANAS = "Insel von Quel'Danas"

    [FLIGHTMAP_QUELDANAS] = {70, 70, lTYPE_CONTESTED},

    Seems OK to me, here's version 2.4-1 with an updated TOC.

  • April 3, 2008, 10:05AM (3 months ago)

    thank you,
    If you dont play anymore maybe see if anyone wants to take over the mod

  • April 2, 2008, 07:17AM (3 months ago)

    Hi all,

    I don't play WoW a whole lot these days, so I'm only just upped to 2.4 myself. If everything still works fine I will just version bump. No promises on when that will occur, but hopefully within a few days.

  • March 30, 2008, 10:13AM (3 months, 1 week ago)

    for me it works ok...

    just some worldmap pois not shown correctly... and maybe the cartographer support could be better

    Comment from other community:

    FlightMap is no longer showing flight paths or mouse-over tooltips for flight locations at flight masters in conjunction with the new Cartographer (Rock version) in WoW 2.2. Can get that version of Cartographer from the Wowace SVN: http://files.wowace.com/Cartographer/Cartographer.zip.

    The flight master special icons this mod creates still show up on the Cartographer world map, but the tooltip showing destination info no longer shows up when mousing over the icons. Flight path lines no longer do either (this is with the options to show that data turned on in FlightMap's options, of course).

    The only things that still work are the in-flight timers and the additional info at the flight master windows, which are unconnected with the world map. All of the icons, the tooltip flight data & the flight lines work without problems on the default Blizzard world map.

    PLZ update soon I consider this one of my essential mods

  • March 28, 2008, 10:23AM (3 months, 1 week ago)

    Please update! Thats much better than InFlight!

  • March 26, 2008, 12:16PM (3 months, 1 week ago)

    Any plans for an update for 2.4?
