The lucid nightmare maze may seem completely random, but if you retrace your steps you will find yourself in the same room. For this reason, a simple map that traces your movements (north - south - east - west) can help you go back to those certain rooms that have an object of interest.
type /lucid or /ln to open the frame (it's only useful in the Endless Halls)
The frame generates "rooms" as you move through the halls.
There are five "Set" buttons that let you change the current room color, which can be used to mark a room on the map where an orb/rune is found, making it easy to retrace your steps when you need to return to that specific room.
At any moment, if you feel the map has become unreadable because of the illogical pattern of the maze, you can use the Reset Map button and restart mapping from any point
This addon isn't the solution to the maze, but a helping hand to avoid having to manually map with pen and paper.
Any feedback is welcome
Please update.
I just looked at the images, none of them are at all alike what the mod looks like for me... It is just a blackness no squares, did try to use ctrl and left klick and right klick to mark the room nothing did happen. is the addon broken or am I doing something wrong? Did read the help and a lot about this addon. center camera do nothing and the coloring marking just make a colored square with no room attatched to and the same square just change color when you use the colors on the left on the side of the black square void.This addon is harder to use than pen and paper so I guess I go back to my pen and paper. :\

This need update for 8.2 -- i cannot litterly do this without and addon... spent more then 8 Hours in this place and i dont know what or where i run....
------------
Picture 2 of the Error
This addon dont work in 8.2 please update
Is it possible to get this updated? I've recently went back to work on this and having this add on work again would be super nice!
The map doesn't generate.
I integrated Harleyxxtv's fix into a fork of this addon that works on 8.2 (My fork also adds turn-by-turn navigation and it gracefully de-duplicates the map when you go through the teleport room)

In reply to raymar_of_brovaria:
tried to use your version but couldn't launch it. Does it use the same /lucid or /ln commands to launch?
In reply to pretofonseca:
Don't try to put the content of his LucidNightmareNavigator into the LucidNightmareHelper folder. The game will not identify the LUA files as belonging to the Addon, and so it will not register the addon or slash commands. (I made this same mistake)
Either rename the folder or just remove the Helper folder and replace it with the navigator folder.
In reply to raymar_of_brovaria:
Ty for this version, Raymar.
The de-duping when you run into the same room again, unexpectedly (due to teleport) is extremely helpful. I didn't even have to worry about feeling like I was running off into a rabbit hole because I knew I'd eventually run back into a room I'd seen before and the de-duping would fix my map.
Once my map was created, using this version, it took all of 5 minutes to run back and return all the orbs to their runes.
Yours is an entirely different version, really, with a different UI, different set of features (including the removal of teleport since you have de-duping.) You might consider adding it as a separate project, if you wanted.
In reply to raymar_of_brovaria:
Just wanted to comment letting you know your addon fork aided me immensely! The maze still took me around 45 minutes to complete, and I got nervous at one point where it told me to go a direction that was blocked, and the addon map even correctly showed that the way was blocked, but I just went another way long enough and got to the destination eventually!
Thank you so much!
I don't know if I can contribute an update. But you can fix it with these steps:
1). Go to your Addons folder.
2). Open the LucidNightmareHelper.lua file.
3). Go to LINE 188, you will see - playerframe:SetAllPoints()
4). Add playerframe:ClearAllPoints() in between line 187 and 188
Enjoy
In reply to Harleyxxtv:
Thank you, it fixed it for me
In reply to Mizumi1593:
Thank you, you fixed it, but for my case the add-on track the room inverse. If i go right it says that i've gone left lel
In reply to Harleyxxtv:
Same problem as the comment above, it fix the add-on but generates the map inverse. Is there a second fix for this new problem?
The last patch broke it
I used this addon and it was helpful, but there are two major things that make it not usable by itself: you can't reposition your arrow on the map, so if you get teleported, it just keeps making rooms. And there's no way to mark a teleport. However, it is much easier than a handwritten map when it comes to actually navigating the maze - especially once you have a map made of it.
So here's how I got around all of this. And, it's not the fastest way, but it was significantly less frustrating. I drew a hand made map at the same time as this one, and I backtracked. So I went until I found a glyph or orb, and then I'd expose one room and go back to the landmark to make sure I hadn't teleported. So I started to build a map that I knew was accurate. But, obviously, I did eventually hit a teleporter and here's how I dealt with that:
I moved back one room on the map, so that my arrow appeared on the map in the room I'd teleported from (the addon creates a new room rather than moving your arrow to the room you end up in.). Then I *closed the app*. Your arrow doesn't move while the app is closed (careful not to erase the map). Then I ran in a random direction until I reached a room that had an orb or glyph that was already on my hand drawn map, and I used the hand drawn map to navigate back to the room where I knew the teleporter was. Then I re-opened the app and used a wall to mark the teleporter (so because the map created an extra room, I knew that a wall between two rooms meant that it was a teleporter.).
But that wouldn't have been necessary if your marker could be moved around on the map that is created by this addon. Overall, it's a good addon and it helped me a lot.
Can you please update this addon for 8.0.1? Thanks!
I installed this and it does not show up in my addon list on WoW. it does show on my list in twitch/curse.
any way to resolve this?
