Harven's Custom Map Pins (Markers) 
DependenciesVersion 3.1 is a major update! Please backup your SavedVariable.
Description
This addon allows you to place your own markers anywhere on the map. You can place them by typing a command in the chat window or by pressing 'x' key (default) when the map is open. Then a dialog window will appear that allows you to enter the marker description. You can delete and edit markers in the map window by pressing left mouse button on a marker and selecting corresponding item from context menu. There is also an option to share a pin with other players who have this addon installed. Select the "Share" option from the context menu and some text will paste to the chat window entry field. Don't change that text! Just choose a suitable channel and press enter. Requests that arrive at zone, say and yell channels are ignored.
Commands
- /custompin - will place a marker at your position,
- /importpins - will import pins stored in the ["import"] section of the HarvensCustomMapPins.lua file. Read below for more details. (Still available, but out-dated)
How to add your own pin textures
- Create your 64x64px pin texture (must be .dds format - there is a Gimp plugin which can export to this format),
- Copy texture file to the addon folder (the one with "pinflag.dds" file) - (Optionally you can create a new folder within AddOns folder, lets say "MyCustomIcons" and put texture file there),
- Edit Icons.lua file and add your texture filename at the end (take notice how other filenames look like),
- type /reloadui in the chat window - that's it.
How to use colours
When entering pins description you can use colour markers. To start some color simply write |cRRGGBB where RR is a red compoment in hex, GG - green component and BB - blue component. To end the colour, write |r. Look at the third screenshot for exapmple.
Import/Export pins
Beggining from version 1.5 all custom pins are account wide (the same pins will be visible to all your characters). To import your pins from other characters just login to the game with those characters. The pins will be imported automatically.
Share pins
Clicking on a pin, there is an menu entry "Share". It will create a chat link. You can send it to any channel or copy the selection to the clipboard and store it outside of ESO.
Everyone, having this addon installed as well, can click on that link and gets a dialog to confirm the pin.
The dialog will tell you whether the pin is new or would replace an existing one.
Donations (for versions up to 2.1)
If you like my work you can make me happy by sending some in-game gold/items to @theharven on EU server (but please, no lockpicks
), eventually you can help me pay my monthly subscription by donating some money.
[Edit 09.31.2015]
Since monthly subscription is no longer required to play the game I decided to transfer all future dontations to charity. There is a polish site where you can chose a person you would like to support (mostly children) https://www.siepomaga.pl/. I will be anonymously transfering your donations there, to a person of my choosing and then I will post a link in The Great Donor Hall so you will know who gets your money
I would love to help this people so I hope this doesn't discourages you from donating.

This is one of my fav add-ons. It helped so much through the years. I am wondering if you plan to add the tales of tribute icon in an update? I just wanna go through the map and add an overlay to the spot (in GOLD) for all the tales of tribute locations. Just to easily see where they are at a glance in cities and regional maps
 Thanks again for all of your wonderful add-ons. I use most of em! |

Do you by chance already know, what's the issue?
I do not know, when they disappeared, but newly added Pins are saved and shown, but all my old Pins are gone now  |

The data variable should look like this. First a long string, which is the texture name, when the floor and when the pibs. Code:
...
HarvensCustomMapPins_Data =
{
["artmapsrivenspirenorthpointbasedds"] =
{
[1] =
{
[74501584] =
{
["icon"] = 1,
["x"] = 0.7450155907,
["predefined"] = "Chest",
["y"] = 0.1584054134,
["description"] = "Truhe",
},
...
}
...
}

Sorry for the delay but the new update got in the way. First, thanks for the advice about the browser. I used a different one and that got me the old version which seems to clash with the new update, so I'm back to your rewrite. Your advice on that helped too, but somehow I still seem to do something wrong.  Currently, my SavedVar is your default version. Below is a very small part of what I tried to use and which upon login is changed back to the default version. What am I missing? Any help is appreciated.

To 3.: That must be a browser cache problem. I download the older version and it is definitive not 3.1. hmm. I'm quite sure there is a data migration done. There $AccountWide does not exist anymore. Right. This belongs to HarvensCustomMapPins_Data. You should copy it there instead. It should look like this: Code:
HarvensCustomMapPins_Data =
{
["artmapseastmarchdirefrostkeepsummitbasedds"] =
{
...
Can you show me how your SavedVar looks like? |

Hi there,
need some help, please. Today I finally updated my addons with Minion. Unfortunately, I found out that ingame I now didn't have any of my map pins any longer. So I went to check on the addon website here only to find out that there's been a major rewrite which apparently messed with the old lua file. What I tried so far to get my pins back: 1. Simply replacing the new lua file with my backup file didn't work. As the addon doesn't seem to be able to read it. 2. Trying to copy and paste all my pins into the new lua file didn't work either as I couldn't find a corresponding "$Accountwide" section in the rewrite. 3. Trying to re-install the previous 2.10 version didn't work either since the unpacked Zip file also contained only the new 3.1 version. So, could someone please explain to me how to get all my pins back? Thanks |
