Questie-X

A universal WoW quest-helper addon with a plugin architecture for custom private servers.

Download Latest • View Source • Read Documentation

Installation

Download the archive.
Extract it into your Interface/AddOns/ directory.
The folder name determines which dataset loads:
- Questie-X — WotLK (3.3.5a default)
- Questie-X-Classic — Classic era dataset
- Questie-X-TBC — The Burning Crusade dataset
- Questie-X-Turtle — Turtle WoW dataset
If your server lacks a world map patch, enable Options -> Advanced -> Use WotLK map data.

Plugin System

Questie-X ships with a Plugin API that lets separate addons inject custom server databases (quests, NPCs, objects, items, zones) without modifying core files. This is a new architecture replacing the old embedded Database/Ascension and Database/Ebonhold folders.

Available Plugins

Plugin	Server	Repository
Questie-Ascension	Project Ascension	Questie-X-AscensionDB
Questie-Ebonhold	Ebonhold	Questie-X-EbonholdDB

Installing a Plugin

Each plugin is a standalone addon. Install it the same way as the core addon:

Download the plugin archive from its repository's Releases page.
Extract it into your Interface/AddOns/ directory alongside Questie-X.
The extracted folder name must match the plugin's .toc title (e.g., Questie-Ascension, Questie-Ebonhold).
Reload your UI or restart the game client — Questie-X will detect and load the plugin automatically.

Plugins declare Questie-X as a dependency in their .toc file, so they only load when the core addon is present.

Writing Your Own Plugin

Questie-X exposes a public API via QuestiePluginAPI. A minimal plugin registers itself and provides override tables:

local plugin = QuestiePluginAPI:RegisterPlugin("MyServer")
plugin:RegisterQuestDB(MyServerQuestDB)
plugin:RegisterNpcDB(MyServerNpcDB)
plugin:RegisterObjectDB(MyServerObjectDB)
plugin:RegisterItemDB(MyServerItemDB)
plugin:RegisterZoneData(MyServerUiMapData, MyServerZoneTables)

See Modules/Libs/QuestiePluginAPI.lua for the full API surface.

Fixes & Compatibility

Nameplates

Explicitly skips Ascension Nameplates to avoid conflicts while maintaining compatibility with generic nameplate addons.

Quest Tracker

Ascension API: Fully compatible with custom quest APIs; no crashes on auto-turn-in quests.
Header Persistence: Resolved issues where quest headers would disappear from the tracker.
Dynamic Updates: Instant refresh when accepting, completing, or abandoning quests.
Combat Safety: Protected with pcall to prevent UI lockups during intense combat updates.

Tooltips

Fixed all legacy Lua errors.
Displays if an NPC drops an item that starts a quest directly in the tooltip.

Maps (Minimap & World Map)

Minimap: Fixed zoom-related Lua errors.
World Map: Full support for Ascension's WorldMapFrame (minimized mode), Mapster, and Magnify-WotLK.
Icon Cleanup: Resolved "ghost icon" bug where completed quests remained visible on the map.

Custom IDs

Native support for large integer IDs common on custom private servers.

Features

Ascension Scaling

Quests automatically scale to character level, perfectly matching the Ascension Scaling system.

Visual Map Objectives

Notes for quest starters, turn-ins, and complex objectives are drawn directly on your maps.

Advanced Quest Tracker

Smart Tracking: Automatically tracks quests upon acceptance.
Expanded Capacity: Displays up to 20 quests (original limit: 5).
Interactive: Left-click to open the log; Right-click for focus modes or TomTom arrow integration.

My Journey & Quests by Zone

Journey Log: Record every major step of your adventure.
Completionist View: Lists all available and completed quests per zone to ensure nothing is missed.
