If anyone is using Lightheaded and wants the links to work with MetaMap, here’s how. Whenever you click on a coordinate link in Lightheaded, it will create a note in MetaMap, bring up MetaMap, ping the note (or the nearest note if one already existed near the location), and bring up the waypoint popup. Links within comments will add the note to the current zone, so make sure you’re in the proper zone before clicking. Some coords, such as those for NPCs, actually have zone information in them and will automatically put the map into the proper zone before adding the note.

NOTE: The following code unfortunately won’t have any tabs or spaces in front of it, so the formatting will look off.

1. Install MetaMap and Lightheaded (you can find Lightheaded at http://www.wowinterface.com )
2. In the main Lightheaded directory in your AddOns folder, load the “Lightheaded.lua” file into your favorite text editor.
3. Find the function “LightHeaded:OnHyperlinkClick”
4. Within this function, look for the following code:

if TomTom then
TomTom:AddWaypoint(x, y, note)
end

5. Insert the following code AFTER the above code:

— MetaMap support by CaptCrunch
if(MetaMap_SetNewNote) then
local qid,cid,rating,indent,parent,date,poster,comment = self:GetQuestComment(lhframe.title, lhframe.level, lhframe.current_page-1)
local mapName = GetZoneText()
local cx = x/100
local cy = y/100
local name = “Quest: “..lhframe.title
local creator = “LightHeaded”
local inf1 = “Poster: “..poster
local inf2 = “Date: “..date

local noteAdded, noteID = MetaMap_SetNewNote(mapName, cx, cy, name, inf1, inf2, “LightHeaded”, 4, 1, 2, 3, nil)
if(MetaMap_ShowLocation) then
if (not noteAdded and MetaMap_CheckNearNotes) then
— If the note wasn’t added, find a nearby note
noteID = MetaMap_CheckNearNotes(zoneName, cx, cy)
if (not noteID) then noteID = nil end
end
— Opens the map and shows the location. If note was already
— added, noteID will be nil and the routine should search
— for the name of the note
MetaMap_ShowLocation(mapName, name, noteID)
if (noteID and BWP_ShowNoteMenu) then
— Brings up the waypoint popup
BWP_ShowNoteMenu(noteID)
end
end
end
— End MetaMap support

6. Search for the following text, again within the “LightHeaded:OnHyperlinkClick” function:

if TomTom and type(TomTom.AddZWaypoint) == “function” then
TomTom:AddZWaypoint(c, z, x, y, note)
elseif TomTom then
self:Print(“NPC locations are not supported in this version of TomTom.”)
end

7. Insert the following code AFTER the above code:

— MetaMap support by CaptCrunch
if(MetaMap_SetNewNote) then
local zone = select(z, GetMapZones(c))
local mapName = zone
local cx = x/100
local cy = y/100
local name = “NPC: “..note
local creator = “LightHeaded”
local inf1 = “”
local inf2 = “”

local noteAdded, noteID = MetaMap_SetNewNote(mapName, cx, cy, name, inf1, inf2, “LightHeaded”, 2, 1, 2, 3, nil)
if(MetaMap_ShowLocation) then
if (not noteAdded and MetaMap_CheckNearNotes) then
— If the note wasn’t added, find a nearby note
noteID = MetaMap_CheckNearNotes(zoneName, cx, cy)
if (not noteID) then noteID = nil end
end
— Opens the map and shows the location. If note was already
— added, noteID will be nil and the routine should search
— for the name of the note
MetaMap_ShowLocation(mapName, name, noteID)
if (noteID and BWP_ShowNoteMenu) then
— Brings up the waypoint popup
BWP_ShowNoteMenu(noteID)
end
end
end
— End MetaMap support

8. Save the “Lightheaded.lua” file
