Supporting LiteMount
If you are a rich person and would like to support me, I would love you to buy me a mount from the Blizzard store. You can see the mounts I am missing here, buy a mount I am missing from the shop and send it to me during checkout to my email address <mib@post.com>.
Otherwise, please continue to enjoy LiteMount for free and just have fun playing WoW.
Localization
LiteMount supports all languages. Please help with translations using this easy web interface:
Profiles
LiteMount supports profiles, accessed via the button on the top-right of most of the settings pages.
The following settings are per-profile:
- Enabled/disabled setting for each mount.
- Copy Target's Mount.
- Automatically exclude newly added mounts.
- Advanced action lists (for buttons 1-4).
The following settings are global:
- Extra mount flags (from the Advanced Options panel).
- Changes to mount flags (from the Mounts panel).
And these settings are per-character and not shared:
- Unavailable macro.
- Combat macro.
- Debugging enabled.
Action Bar Macro
To create a LiteMount macro you can drop onto your action bar, type into the chat box:
/litemount macro
Once you have created the macro you can edit it if you wish, LiteMount will not change it unless you delete it and recreate it.
Copying Target's Mount
If you have a player targeted, LiteMount will try to copy the mount they are currently using. You can turn this awesome feature off in the settings.
In-Combat Actions
LiteMount cannot mount in combat. It has a default set of combat actions which can dismount you, exit vehicles, or cast Travel Form or Ghost Wolf.
Getting Out of Water
Jump out of the water and activate LiteMount within one second to fly, float or run away.
For Druids
Activate LiteMount while moving or jumping to activate Travel Form.
Go into the settings and set the unavailable macro to
/cast Cat Form(Shapeshift)
and the combat macro to
/cast [indoors,swimming][outdoors] Travel Form(Shapeshift); [indoors] Cat Form(Shapeshift)
For Shamans
Activate LiteMount while moving or jumping to activate Ghost Wolf.
Go into the settings and set the unavailable macro to
/cast Ghost Wolf
For Monks
Go into the settings and set the unavailable macro to
/cast Zen Flight

If This AddOn Seems Abandoned
If more than two weeks go by after a major patch and LiteMount hasn't been updated, I've probably been hit by a bus. In that case I encourage anyone with the necessary ability to take over maintenance of the addon.
LiteMount is released under the terms of the GNU General Public License, which means anyone can take it and do whatever they want with it, as long as they too release their code under the same terms.
Hi
Please how do I limit mounts per zone in a way that my character uses the selected mounts only in that specific zone and nowhere else.
I want to use only mechanical mounts in Mechagon and don't want to use theme anywhere else.
I created flag called Mechagon and I added "Limit [filter=Mechagon][map:1462]" at the top of the string. I selected the mounts I wish.
It works fine in Mechagon. But I want to further limit these mounts that they are only used in Mechagon.
Is there a way how to do this?
Thank you
Hello :)
I cannot get favourite mounts to work per character. Whenever i create a profile for a character it just doesn't save the favourite mounts i check.
Always see the mounts from the previous character i tried to configure :(
Please help, no idea what i'm doing wrong
Hi there,
Absolutely loving the addon, I was devastated when I discovered /castrandom doesn't appear to work correctly with mounts but this has replaced that and more - thank you.
I was hoping for a little advice;
I've added
Limit [filter=MECHAGON][map:1462]
To the flags, and enabled the flag for "Rustbolt Resistor" - this works famously as I -only- mount that in Mechagon now.
However, because the Resistor is now enabled - I randomly get it as my mount outside of Mechagon. Not a big deal as I've got a number of mounts enabled for general use however I really don't like the resistor mount so I was hoping that it would ONLY activate in Mechagon and then nowhere else. What would be the best way of achieving that?
I love you, and this addon! <3
Any chance for Classic version?
In reply to GregoryWW:
No chance I'm afraid. Mounts are completely different in classic, just items in your bags that you have to use.
Happy adventuring, X.
Hi, thank you for the awesome add-on.
May I ask 2 questions?
1) By using 'advanced options menu; I'm trying to set one specific mount no matter the other conditions as my hotkey #2.
Can it be done as follows?
LeaveVehicle
CancelForm
Dismount
Mount 'mount ID'
2) Is it possible to list specific mounts on 'advanced options differently for each hotkey, which is different from Blizzard favorites mount menu?
For example,
hotkey #1 = x <- only contain mount 1,2,3
hotkey #2 = alt x <- only contain mount 4,5,6
hotkey #3 = ctrl x <- only contain mount 7,8,9
while mount 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 are all my favorites under blizzard favorites menu.'
I already have read all your instructions and documentations but was unable to solve this on my own.
Please direct me if I'm missing out anything.
Thank you.
Hi lightscamera,
1) You can do that like this:
LeaveVehicle
CancelForm
Dismount
Mount [filter=mountSpellID]
2) One option is to use the Limit action to restrict the list of mounts to consider from that line on if the conditions match.
Limit [filter=FLAG1][nomod]
Limit [filter=FLAG2][mod:alt]
Limit [filter=FLAG3][mod:ctrl]
You can also just call them directly:
Mount [filter=FLAG1][nomod]
Mount [filter=FLAG2][mod:alt]
Mount [filter=FLAG3][mod:ctrl]
Make sure that modifed keys are NOT bound in the blizzard keybindings.
Using the Budding Deepcoral, which lets you use Aquatic mounts anywhere in Nazjatar, messes up the SmartMount function. If you have an Aquatic mount enabled in Litemount, only that mount will be chosen.
In reply to danielfboone:
Yep that's how I intend it to work. If you use the deepcoral it uses aquatic mounts by preference in Nazjatar.
Although it has nothing to do with SmartMount, it's a completely separate line in the default action list
In reply to xodiv:
That makes no sense to limit the mounts in Nazjatar to only aquatic ones. Without the Deepcoral, I can use any mount there. I should still be able to with it. I have had to disable my aquatic mounts in Litemount and put a separate button with a flyout in my action bar.
Okay, I fixed it by completely removing the line "Mount [filter=mt:254][map:1355,flyable,qfc:56766] " from the action list. I then checked FLY for Fabious and Fathom Dweller in the mounts list. Now it works the way I want it to
In reply to danielfboone:
Can confirm that removing that line fixes it. I didnt mind getting the seahorse, but getting only that.... yeah :P
In reply to danielfboone:
Thanks for this info!
Heya mate.
First of all, thank you for a marvelous addon. Simple, but lots of fun, having another mount every time i travel. That is why i collect mounts.
It strikes me as weird though that in the twitch overview panel, although it is updated to version 8.2.8 , the game version still states 5.4.0
Minor detail, but can be confusing when i'm cleaning up with filter upon outdated game version.
Good recovery..

Hi draculja,
Thanks for the comment, I'm glad you're enjoying LiteMount.
I don't know how that addon version in the Twitch UI is calculated. I think it must be buggy, to be honest. I just loaded mine up and plenty of the other addons I have installed say 7.0.3 and one even says 3.0.2. The AskMrRobot addon, for example, says Game Version: 5.,1.0. It wasn't even around back then!
I don't think there's anything I can do about it. You could try logging it as a bug with the Twitch developers and see what they say.
Happy adventuring, X.
Crestfall island (expedition) is marked as flyable
LiteMount: Location:
LiteMount: map: Crestfall (1501)
LiteMount: mapPath: Crestfall (1501) -> Kul Tiras (876) -> Azeroth (947) -> Cosmic (946)
LiteMount: instance: 2124
LiteMount: zoneText: Crestfall
LiteMount: subZoneText:
LiteMount: IsFlyableArea(): true
In reply to Hemario:
Thanks again. I've just gotten out of hospital, but I'll try fix it up as soon as I can.
Happy adventuring, X.
Wonderwing is the only mount that now is picked, even when its unchecked and its flying is unchecked etc.
Edit: seems to have settled down and is working correctly again. Weird!
Very weird. :(
Doesn't seem to recognize the new Wonderwing mount?
