  • Dear AddOn author,

    Recent Information from WowMatrix: These Addons (in bold) cannot be installed or updated at this time, because it is being hosted at either Curse or WoWInterface.
    Both of those websites do not wish to have updaters connect to their sites, and have deliberately blocked updaters from doing so, starting right on the day of the 3.1 patch.
    Although we do not agree with the actions of these sites, we respect their position in this matter, and are working on ways to bring you a quality selection of AddOns without connecting to these sites.
    If any of these AddOns (in bold) come with a free distribution license (such as GPL, BSD, public domain, etc.), let us know and we should be able to get it back online relatively quickly by hosting it on our servers.
    Otherwise, if you know the author(s) of these AddOns, you may wish to get in touch with them and see if they would like to host their
    AddOn(s) on our servers, and have them contact us if they do.
    In the meantime, thank you for your patience and understanding.


    Here's my list of WoW AddOns. The bold AddOns are currently unable to be installed or updated through WowMatrix and I would ask you to please contact WowMatrix at http://www.wowmatrix.com/ to host your AddOn(s) on the WowMatrix servers, as this is the easiest way to update multiple addons, as well as it is less risky than using Curse client. I personally refuse to use Curse client because I have heard too many horror stories of people's WoW accounts getting compromised as a direct result of using that service.

    Thank you in advance,
    Diana Peek

  • lol Wowmatrix tried hosting addons once before and got into some trouble by not respecting author's requests or licensing restrictions. Then they changed to just stealing bandwidth and ad revenue from legitimate addon repository sites. Now they want to host again? At least they're asking first this time. That's a step in the right direction I suppose.

    Dear WowMatrix user,

    WowMatrix circumvents those little things like the Donate button, advertisements, notes, comments, link to the author website, etc. all while using the bandwidth of the service that is actually hosting the file (that is, until they got cut off).

    So while you find it aggravating to update and install addons that are provided to you free of charge (because most likely you are lazy) there are people who need to pay the bills.

    Why any author that would choose to do this is beyond me.

    I cannot get the map notes to appear. I have Cartographer installed but Cartographer_notes is turned off. Tried with and without MozzFullworldmap. Can't think of what else could be preventing the map notes from appearing on my map. Please help!

  • when i alt-right click on a map (in The Exodar for example) the handynotes interface pops up *under* the map .... not so useful.

  • Seems to be working nice side by side w/ cartographer and cartographer notes. Prefer some of the cartographer notes features but wanted the flight master info, ty for your work.

  • HandyNotes cant make note in addon 'InstanceMaps'

    It work normally, open map, then select instance by zone. When in instance open map show directly instance map. Gooooooood :)

    Now, just find how i make Handynotes for instance map,
    "Alt+right click" add notes manual notes under mouse pointer. OK it normal
    in instance, it zoom out. It bad.

    As i can find, when i try /hnnew x y Title, i receive:
    "HandyNotes cannot create a note here as it is unable to obtain
    your current location. Usually this is because there is no map
    for the zone you are in."

    Now i try look HandyNotes for more info (and copy this message to)

  • Most instances don't have coordinates that can be used by map add-ons. Until Blizzard changes this, HandyNotes won't be able to do anything about this.

    Cartographer's instance maps are special cases, I'm not even sure you can set notes with Cartographer_Notes on the instance maps. (The ones you do see are hard-coded into the maps AFAIK.)

  • I just retry with '/hnnew x y' in instance it show error, outside it add note to map of zone your standing not the instance are show

  • In future option can be useful: draw line for show way in instance like Black Rock Mountain or mob path.

    is this able to import notes from a) cartographer b) metamap c) mapnotes ?

    if yes , good,

    if no, some vital stuff is missing then, nopoint in changing to annother notes addon.

    this is a point, most authors dont seem to be aware of. Or just code some universal im/exort utility for notes addons with plugins/filter templates for any note mod outthere, so its easy to migrate for users in any direction.

    Okay, I've been looking at the Handynotes Addon, and I must say, I'm extremely interested and am wanting to try it out. I do have a few questions, if you could help me out :)

    I know you make the main & flight masters...I was wondering if you could post screenshots?

    Also, and I'm going to be asking this of the other two "additions" to this addon that I like (vendors/trainers sister project) what I should uncheck in my cartographer (regular, not 3) so that they are able to work side by side. Thanks! ^_^

    Ok I might be a bit retarded, not quite sure yet. But I just dled this mod and at first it appeared to be working extremely well, but where it shows me I have quests, I dont. And I know that I have completed a few that it already has listed...any advice?

    hi

    i'm working on HandyNotes_OpenPVP ( http://my.curse.com/downloads/wow-addons/details/handynotes_openpvp.aspx ) and other addons like this one.
    first i want to thanks yuu for handynotes, its a nice thing for me to realise my addon-ideas.

    so i want you to ask if you can implement follow features for plugins:
    - options to disable the showing of handynotes from a plugin on the minimap and or worldmap
    - options to spezific what kinde of notes from a plugin are showed, of course this has to specific the plugin, somting like a filter.

    thanks for your time

  • Being able to toggle the minimap icons would be a blessing. One of the problems I have is that the icons will overlap my quest icons so it's easy to lose where new quests are or where quests need to be turned in. Some areas (like the inn in honor hold) I have to just delete all my notes so i can find where the quest is.

    Either that or is it possible to change the strata level so the icons appear 'under' the quest icons? I doubt it though.

    You are correct, it cannot be under the question marks.
    I'll look into some of the above suggestions.

  • I'd like to also request the ability to toggle all notes off the minimap. As it is I have to /handynotes and disable the addon to see quest givers and whatnot.

    Thanks for a great addon!
