Loremaster (the easy one)

I ran out of time tonight, and the heroic was Oculus (no chance getting a group for that), so I had to go for a fallback that I was hoping to save - Loremaster of Eastern Kingdoms.



The reason I ran out of time is quite interesting though - I was working on Loremaster (the addon). I want to be able to show a checklist of quests to complete but my coding ability is limited, so I wanted to piggyback on EveryQuest to do it. I have requested that the author add support but I'm not getting any joy, so I'm going to have to do something myself. I tried writing some code to show a similar window but realised I would need a lot more data than I currently am putting in to get that - I would basically be duplicating EveryQuest, something I wish to avoid. My next idea was to write a filter for EQ, but I realised that would still require the author to add it to his code.

However, I have a new idea. I am 90% sure it will work. If it does, there should be a new version of Loremaster in the next few days. Possibly after TAFTCITD is complete. Watch this space.
