Horde Down Under Instance Guide

v2.0.0 — Major Release

Published: March 2026

This is a full rebuild of the addon from the ground up. Version 2.0.0 represents a complete overhaul in stability, automation, and content coverage.

New Features

• Full auto-progression system via combat log event detection — guide steps now advance automatically on boss kills and key instance events with zero user input required
• All manual "Click Here to Continue" prompts have been removed entirely
• Slash command system fully registered and functional (/hduig and all subcommands)
• In-game guide viewer rebuilt for reliability and clean rendering
• Boss notes and strategy tips integrated directly into guide steps
• HDU branding applied throughout — dark UI theme consistent with the HDU addon suite

Bug Fixes

• Resolved slash command registration failure that prevented /hduig from being recognised on login
• Fixed guide viewer failing to load guide content on first open
• Corrected combat log listener not firing correctly for certain boss kill events
•  

Removed

• Manual step-advance prompts and click-to-continue dialogs

INSTALLATION

Manual Installation

1. Download the latest release .zip file from the Files tab above.
2. Extract the zip — you should have a folder named HDU_InstanceGuide.
3. Copy or move the HDU_InstanceGuide folder into your AddOns directory:

World of Warcraft/_anniversary_/Interface/AddOns/

1. Launch (or reload) World of Warcraft.
2. At the character select screen, click AddOns and ensure Horde Down Under Instance Guide is enabled.
3. Log in and type /hduig to open the guide viewer.

CurseForge App

If you installed via the CurseForge app, updates will be managed automatically. No manual steps required.

Troubleshooting

• If the addon does not appear in your AddOns list, double-check that the folder is named exactly HDU_InstanceGuide with no extra characters or nested folders.
• Make sure "Load out of date AddOns" is checked in the AddOns screen if the addon shows as out of date.
• Type /reload in-game after enabling the addon for the first time.
