What's new

DangerQuestAlert 2.0.0

New

  • Reads the game's own quest data instead of only a fixed list, so every quest is covered, including the 1,000+ new quests of WoW Forever:
    • Elite and group quests (the + in [24+] on WoW Forever, or "Suggested Players: N").
    • Dungeon and raid quests.
    • Quests far above your level: 5+ levels (the red ones) by default, adjustable from 2 to 10 (3 = also orange quests).
  • The 1.x list stays as "Known Deadly Quests" (escorts, crowded caves, underwater quests), used where the original world still exists (WoW Forever, Classic Era, TBC Anniversary, Titan).
  • Warns when a quest is offered, when you accept it (auto-accepted quests too) and when you track it by hand: once per quest per session.
  • Settings page (Options > AddOns > DangerQuestAlert, or /dqa): a switch for each check; Levels Above You; Only When Not in a Group; Center Text, Screen Flash, Sound (with a choice of four Blizzard sounds), Chat Message; Test Alert button (also /dqa test).
  • Now listed for WoW Forever, Retail, MoP Classic, Titan Reforged, TBC Anniversary and Classic Era (the old file's Interface number matched no client).

Changed look (Blizzard's own style)

  • "Dangerous quest: [38+] Colonel Kurzen" in raid warning text in the middle of the screen.
  • Blizzard's raid warning sound replaces the custom alarm sound.
  • Blizzard's red low-health screen edges pulse twice instead of the full-screen red flash.
  • One chat line with the reasons instead of two generic lines.

Quiet where it should be

  • No alerts inside dungeons and raids (you're already there with your group).
  • On Retail, world quests and bonus objectives don't alert when you fly into their area.

Unchanged

  • Everything is on by default, like 1.x (flash, sound, chat). 1.x saved no settings, so there's nothing to lose.
