After I installed the latest patch the Qhelper addon doesnt show up on the minimap or any map. Any suggestions of why this is happening.

Apollo074

Yeah , I'm having the same problem. I even unistalled it and reinstalled it a few different times and it still doesn't work. If any one know what's wrong with QHelper please let me know!!!!

yep me too my QH is not working, How do I get it back up?

Same problem. Is there any suggestions of what can be done....or when it will be back up and running again?

i too am having this problem no quest helper. yes i uninstall and reinstall and no helper please let me know what to do

same here not working sence wow new patch today.....please help

Error when typing /qh:

Interface\AddOns\QuestHelper\textviewer.lua: 79: :SetText(): Font not set

Can't access it from the map either.

Ugh. I HATE patch day. :(

Tranquilo kiddies, it will probably be fixed with numerous bug fixes. Addons as complex as that tend to fail on patch day. Use thottbot.com or wow.allakhazam.com

same here too not working since new patch....i miss my questhelper :(

Yeah I agree its all crapping out it will be back in around a day im sure

my questhelper isn't working either,ever since installing the new patch.i really need my questhelper.its a life saver.hope it is back on really really soon

my questhelper isn't working either,ever since installing the new patch.i really need my questhelper.its a life saver.hope it is back on really really soon

i never noticed how helpless i was without QH!!

:(

Same here its not working.....what should I do??

Nothing any of us can do - I'm 2/3 of a level to 70 on an alt, was hoping to ding that tonight.
I NEVER REALIZED HOW AWESOME QH WAS UNTIL NOW. ><

Is there anything like QH that shows the objectives on the map? I tried Carbonite, but I didnt like it at all.

same here! NEED QH!

me too. This stinks. I'm lost!

here's the fix:

in \Interface\AddOns\QuestHelper\recycle.lua

Comment out lines:

line 150 so change "text:SetParent(nil)"
to: "--text:SetParent(nil)"
line 228 so change "tex:SetParent(nil)"
to: "--tex:SetParent(nil)"

In menu.lua
Comment out line 330 so change "self.text:SelfParent(nil)
to: "--self.text:SelfParent(nil)

You may also delete the lines.
Use wordpad. This works. Quest helper is running like a charm. Got this from the Questhelper forum. This is the only fix until a newer version comes out. No. This will not wreck your wow client. This is a fix for questhelper.

Has anyone tried all of the older versions or is it not even worth it?

Delete which lines?

files located in in usually c:\progam files\\Interface\AddOns\QuestHelper\

I used wordpad to edit the files. I found it easier to use.

in file recycle.lua

do a search for

text:SetParent(nil)

and

tex:SetParent(nil)

Either delete them or put 2 dashes in front of them.

in file menu.lua, do a search for

self.text:SetParent(nil) * Fixed typo -- thanks Tef

Either delete the line or 2 dashes in front of it.

ok, i'm an idiot...how do i find the files that you are talking about?

For those wondering, there is a typo in the above two comments refering to menu.lua

Line 330 reads "self.text:SetParent(nil)", not "self.text:SelfParent(nil)"

Just comment out this line as noted above, and it should work fine.

do i go to the command prompt, or are these files somewhere on my c drive......and if i am at the command prompt, how do i get it to just c:\ ???????????? please help!!!!!!!!!

I tried the solution Duck posted and it worked like a charm. I was much easier searching for the terms then looking for the # of lines, so i suggest that method to locate the lines to remove.

Thanks. I was lost without quest helper.

little - you need to locate the folder where you installed WOW. usually somewhere in c:\program files\

once you locate the WOW directory, then you can follow this path to the files:

\Interface\AddOns\QuestHelper\

it wont let me go into the recycle lua. now what?

Tararus - what program r u using to edit that file? I like using wordpad.

then do a find for

these two files:

text:SetParent(nil)

and

tex:SetParent(nil)

then either delete them or put -- in front of them (this comments them out)

UGH i hate not having my QH :( the cartographer isn't working as well..... I just dont feel like playing WoW without them, Its slightly Depressing lol.

Wow you people need to stop complaining no offense ... whenever a patch is realease fixes need to be made by theprogrammer of a addon and its not always easy so just everyone stop posting the same thing with different words and itll be back up when its back up all the pointless posts about the obvious arent going to get it down

I've been using Carbonite and i don't miss Quest Helper at all... give it a try.
