1.1.1 Patch Note
Functionality
You have a book shelf now! Click the left arrow on the top-right corner to return to the shelf.
Each Album has its own theme and the latest album features stories of the Titans and the Old Gods.
27 new cards were added. Cheers!
1.0.2 Patch Note
Functionality
You can now pick one from paperclip, tape and staple as your Pin Button.
File size has been reduced. Cheers!
1.0.1 Patch Note
Functionality
You can now use this mini-map button to open the Album. Or you can disable it and use /AAA command instead.
Two new buttons were added to the bottom of the panel. You can sort the cards by map. Progress will be shown here as well. You can also change some basic settings.
Readability
A Darken Background feature is added so you can concentrate on reading. It's enabled by default but you can turn it off.
Two fonts are embedded--Noto Sans for Chinese and Fremont for English. Please notice that you may not use the latter commercially without a proper license.
The Album now has a higher frame strata. It should overlap most icons from TMW/WA.
When you open the world map, the text area will rearrange itself so you will be able to see the coordinates.
What Is This?
You may consider it an achievement system 2.0 but it's more than that.
About a month ago when I was writing some guides for the achievement, I came up with an idea -- to make an add-on that will provide tips, track world quests and set marks on the map when you track a achievement. Then I realized I could use this add-on to create things instead of just making it an auxiliary. And that's how it started.
30 points of interest are now listed in this Album. Once you reach a specific location, a photo and related lore will show up in the Album. This lore can be a background of an Easter egg or a story of the character/place.
How Do I Use It?
POI are listed in the Card Area. The card will stay grey until it is collected. Photo Area is on the right column. The photo has a old paper effect and will return to its saturated state when you receive the card.
Move you cursor into to the Photo Area and the Location&Lore (text panel) will pop up. You may enable this paperclip-shaped Pin Button so that the text panel is always visible.
Where Do You Get These Contents?
I've been playing alpha and beta for months and I spent most of the time exploring new areas. Also, a few of my friends in WoW and people from this sub have provided some very interesting places. So thank you all.
I designed the UI (game icons not included) and the Logo, retouched every photo. I hope you guys like it.
Please enjoy and I would love your feedback!

Quite frankly, I'm amazed by the quality of your addons. The creativity and detail you put in to them really adds depth to the game and should be something That is part of the game itself. Hats of to you my friend
In reply to Eggmungus:
Thank you! And you can put your hat on now!
hello, I completely fell in love with your addon, so much so that I started translating it into French.
I only have one problem at the moment:
the addon does not display letters with accents (éèàê)
the font contains the accents I have already looked at.
if you could just fix this that would be great.
thank you in advance
In reply to Forge_User_32998733:
Thank you!
Do you think I should select a new font right now or just wait until you finish your work?
In reply to Peterodox:
Hi Peterodox,
thank you for your attention, hum do you think changing the font will fix this problem?
if yes: then yes you can update =)

In reply to Forge_User_20414294:
Hi! Thanks for the report. I'll update this addon soon. Currently, there are some bugs in Narcissus that demand my immediate attention.
In reply to Peterodox:
Don't worry, Narcissus is way more important to me than AAA is. I really like this addon too though, so would like to see those errors go :).
Il y a une traduction en français ?
so funny story I went on a crusade to find what was causing me errors because apparently the error was falsely flagged by bugsack to be Arh so uh long story short the C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(uiMapID, unitToken) error bugged me, this whole post was a pun goodbye
ok I'll actually give useful info down below in the reply on the other comment
I don't know exactly when this started, but I get this error upon login:
199x Usage: local position = C_Map.GetPlayerMapPosition(uiMapID, unitToken)
[C]: in function `GetPlayerMapPosition'
AzerothAdventureAlbum\Checkpoint.lua:159: in function <AzerothAdventureAlbum\Checkpoint.lua:157>

In reply to tanglies:
Since 8.2.5.
The good news is it only show up upon login and other functionalities work just fine.
Also, the entry related to Mekkatorque in Album #3 can be unobtainable for some players because you know technically he's still in a coma.
I haven't decided If should upload a fix (given the file size of this addon and the fact that there are not much users). I'm not sure how twitch client works -- if I upload a version where all pictures are excluded, will the old files in your addon folder get deleted? If it doesn't happen, I will update this addon as soon as possible.
In reply to Peterodox:
So here's the whole thing: Twitch does completely replace the old files, so one of the first things you'd maybe have to do is notify the user that the images have moved to a separate new addon in game (but I don't believe this should be necessary tbh.)
I believe Curseforge does allow you to list certain addons as hard dependency (like BugGrabber + BugSack) and when that happens, it will auto-install the dependency with it. BugGrabber for example is the base piece, while BugSack also provides extra. BugSack has BugGrabber listed as a hard dependency, and therefore it will install it. BugGrabber does not need BugSack, so it will not.
It won't however auto-install updates, so if you update AAAcode and not AAAimages then only AAAcode will install - which is good and the intent in this case I believe, to not install multi-hundred MB of images just for the sake of "toc bump".
In more testing, I manually installed an outdated version of BugSack, hit "update", and it auto-installed BugGrabber in its update.
Hypothetically, I believe this would be the same scenario: Push AAAimages as new addon (get it approved so no weirdness happens), list AAAimages as hard dependency, release new update which is just AAAcode. AAAcode updates, auto-installs new AAAimages dependency addon.
Since AAAimages addon also requires AAAcode to really do anything I think it should also have a hard dependency too in the reverse. If not, the worst that could happen is if one addon is enabled and the other isn't, just popup a notification saying a dependency is missing or something
but uh beyond that idk if I can help lol I spent like an hour hunting down the Archaeology Helper addon to the ends of the earth on my computer to find out it wasn't actually Arh bug instead BugSack grabbing weird data from .WTF files.
Hello! Is there any chance of this add on getting a kind update where users could make packs of cards? I could see this being used by Roleplayers for their events and storylines. It would be amazing to use it as a sort of 'scavenger hunt' or random encounter sort of thing.
All in all, I LOVE this add on, I find it tons of fun to collect the cards, and I wish you were still actively updating it. I would love to use it for my roleplaying events. Thanks for all your hard work and no worries if that's not something you're interested in opening up. (This is just a bump from the earlier comment, because I would kill for this lol )
In reply to Verisimi:
Hi Verisimi! Thank you for your comment and I appreciate your enthusiasm.
Sadly, I've shifted my free time to another add-on -- Narcissus, which renders this project inactive for the time being.
In reply to Peterodox:
I use that one, too, but I am very sad to hear this one is dropped! Thanks for the previous work.
It is an innovative addon, love it. I found this program from Narcissus. lol.
Well there is a bug that High tinker mekkatorque is not in the embassy of Stromwind，which is a mission of Album #3.
I think that he has been killed by the Horde in the 8.1 raid. So how can I find him and get the card?
In reply to apizjd:
Hi! I just logged in my Alliance character and visited Stormwind embassy, the High Tinker was there though I've "killed" him and completed related storylines.
I don't know what caused this sharding issue, factions perhaps?
Anyway, if you cannot find him:
1. close the album.
2. use /run TidesofV[5]["Status"] = true command.
3. Reopen the album.
The contents within this add-on was released before Battle for Dazar'alor. If you find other NPCs missing, please leave a comment here. Thank you!
make it able to be move dragged around
appears below weakauras and i cant move
PS new addon looks amazing
