I know my map of Wintergrasp works fine, with C2. Mind you, I had issues with Cart after the 3.02 patch, so I:

1. deleted my old Cart & Cart plugins folders in \addons

2. removed every mention of anything Cart-based from my WTF folder

3. installed the latest version of Cart, plugins, and some of the ones I missed which have not been updated

4. restored my backed up _mining, _fishing_ and _herbalism savedvariables to the WTF folder

Everything works, tyvm.

Its because the addon hasn't been updated to include Wintergrasp yet

It is not a bug with the addon itself since my version (current) works like a champ.

Did you try any of what I suggested?

One last thing to try if you have no joy otherwise. DO ONLY AS A LAST RESORT. Rename your WTF and Interface folders to anything you like. Then run the repair.exe in the WoW installation forlder. This will reset everything back to the default. You will lose all your keybindings and such. Then install Cartographer ONLY and log in and see the results. If you are still having issues then you will need to reinstall WoW from scratch. If it works properly you can then install all you addons one by one and see when the problem occurs again. You then know where the issue lies. If the problem still presists with ONLY Cartographer installed then just delete the new WTF and Interface folders and rename the original ones back to what they were. You will have your game back to where you were before you started but with the problem still there. GL to you.

Hmm, I didn't want to do it, but I'll try it when I have time. Thank you for your help.

I have exactly the same problem. When setting the transparency to 0 all zones appear fine except Wintergrasp.

Meh, seems like it really is an addon bug and not an install bug. Doobyman can you try contacting AbydosLanti please? Maybe he/she answers you.

Thank you for all the help, but I'll take some printscreens of the game so you see the difference I think it's easier to do.

This is Cartographer and Cartographer options open in Wintergrasp's zone map with the Transparency option ( inside the Look 'n' Feel options ) set to 100% :

This is what happens when the Transparency option is set to 0% ( still seeing Wintergrasp' map ), yeah it may seem like not but cartographer is open and you can see it :

And this is what it should look like with transparency set to 0% ( this is the map of The Storm Peaks, random, just so you can see how it should look like ) :

See, this was the bug I was speaking off. This is why I want to contact the author but I can't :S

I think you're not understanding....Can you please contact the addon author about this transparency bug in Cartographer? I tried, but AbydosLanti won't answer me :S

I guess I am not understanding. Sorry, I can not contact the author since I am not the one having issues and could not be available to answer questions.

Well questhelper was working fine for me.

Then when i went to my friends house.

I got on and it didn't show the arrow showing me where to go.

So i went home, thinking it was just his computer.

But when i got home it still wasn't working.

So i uninstalled the curse client and the questhelper addon.

Then i reinstalled everything.

But still questhelper doesn't work.

It doesn't even show up in the curse client.

So some help please?

What about creating your own thread and not spamming anyone else's one? Did you think about that?

Ok so let me ask this first. Do you have the foglight option enabled? If ynot all you will see is a somewhat blank map because you have not explored the area yet. This is the correct behavior and you can try either enabling or disabling the setting.

I think you're not understanding, what I mean is if I set Cartographer's transparency to 0, and I'm seeing Wintergrasp's map, it's transparent, I mean if I open it in Wintergrasp' with transparency 0 I can still see my character because there's nothing there. Can you please contact the addon author about this transparency bug in Cartographer? I tried, but AbydosLanti won't answer me :S
