-- House of Winters - Quest Journal
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

NB!!! The latest patch introduced a bug regarding the SavedVars file.
Read more about it here: http://www.esoui.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1843

The Quest Journal lets you keep track of your quests as you journey across
Tamriel.

Please note that the Quest Journal does not know about quests completed before
you installed this addon. You can however manually update which quests you have
completed or if you have previously installed the Esohead addon and kept it
running, you can import the quest data gathered by the Esohead addon to your
Quest Journal.

Instructions on how to perform the import can be found in the Change Log.

Suggestions and feedback are most welcome!

Best regards,
Kentarii

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.0.2 (2014-05-13)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Renamed zone "Stros M'kai" to "Stros M'Kai".
* Added import functionality to read data from Esohead.lua saved vars datafile.
IMPORT-HOW-TO:
1. This functionality requires that you installed the Esohead addon.
2. Verify the existence of Esohead.lua, usually in a folder similar to this:
C:\Users\XXX\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\liveeu\SavedVariables\
3. CLOSE THE GAME AND MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR SAVEDVARIABLES DIRECTORY!!!
3a. Why do I need to close the game?
- Because I told you to!
Main reason is that SavedVariables are only persisted when you do a
logout, reloadui or exit the game.
3b. Why do I need to make a backup?
- Again.. because I told you to!
4. Did you really make a backup? Don't come crying to me if you didn't!
5. Start the game as usual, log in to your main character.
6. To parse the Esohead.lua file and get a preview, please run: /qj import
7. The Quest Journal window will now list all the quests it found in the
Esohead.lua file. Already tracked quests will be marked with their
respective colors and will NOT be imported again. Only quests in white
will be imported. The bottom line lists some numbers.
8. To perform the import, run: /qj import-esohead
9. To go back to the normal Quest Journal window, run: /qj show
Note 1! The quest "One of the Undaunted" will be falsely imported for all beginner
zones.
Note 2! Any quest you have done on an alt character will also be imported.
Esohead.lua does not distinguish between characters.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.0.1 (2014-05-12)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Commented out auto-switch to quest info on add/complete.
* Added various settings to the settings menu.
* Added Betnikh zone along with 9 quests.
* Added public/group dungeon quests for all zones.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.0.0 (2014-05-11)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Quest Journal was separated from the HoWUI addon to make it more obvious what
the addon is about and make it more visible when searching on esoui.com

If you do a

Code:

/esohead reset - Completely resets all gathered data.

It will reset your data, but other than that.. don't think so.

Ah, thank you very much!

The reason it didn't appear here is because I'm using "ZrMM - Modified" addon which exposes LAM to the global scope.

Will fix this and release a new version asap.

Yes, I did the update and the error disappeared!!

user:/AddOns/HoW_QuestJournal/HoW_QuestJournal.lua:116: in function 'HoW_QJ.AddOnLoaded'

Got the same error after migrating from HowUI to QuestJournal only.

I've 'fixed' it by editing said file (AddOns/HoW_QuestJournal/HoW_QuestJournal.lua) :
on lines 548, 549 & 550, functions where called prefixed with "LAM:" (upper case) whereas similar lines around were using "lam:" (lower case)
So i changed the 3 lines to start by "lam:" and error disappeared.

Code:

lam:AddCheckbox(controlPanel, HoW_QJ.prefix.."SettingsVisible",...
LAM:AddDropdown(controlPanel, HoW_QJ.prefix.."SettingsFont",...
LAM:AddSlider(controlPanel, HoW_QJ.prefix.."SettingsScale",...
LAM:AddSlider(controlPanel, HoW_QJ.prefix.."SettingsAlpha",... 
lam:AddDescription(controlPanel, HoW_QJ.prefix.."AboutDescription", ...

Hope it helps.

Edit: Also just noticed that I completed my first quest since I loaded the addon and the addon doesen't show that I have a completed quest. should have one now.

I'll do some more testing and get back to you...

Not a problem. I am going to keep the addon installed. Do you think I need to have the HoWUI addon installed as well? I can try it and see what happens.

Should clarify that this is not part of any quest. This happens when I first installed the addon and anytime i start the game now or refresh the UI

Sorry, i am however not sure how to add a screen shot in this forum

To insert images, just post it to some cloud provider and link it.
But could you just post the line numbers mentioned perhaps?

Edit: Didn't manage to reproduce it here, but I think I might have found the issue (silly mistake), can you please try v1.0.3 and let me know if the problem still persists?

This is so weird.. can you perhaps try to delete the HoWUI.lua and HoW_QuestJournal.lua from the SavedVariables directory (or move it somewhere else).

Active, abandoned and completed quests as of now.

I don't have the data to provide location nor description for all the quests in the game.

Kentarii Forum posts: 42 File comments: 52 Uploads: 5	Import from Esohead.lua has been added to v1.0.2. It's not perfect, but will probably be ok for most people who don't switch back and forth between alts. Please read changelog for instructions.
