Mapster is a very simple world map enhacement addon, which was designed to work in conjunction with all other map addons out there. The idea to create Mapster originated from pure lack of a simplistic addon that only modifies the world map, without adding a full scale feature set.

Features

Map Style (Scale & Alpha)
Coordinates
Fog of War removal
Enhancement of the raid/party group icons

You can access the Mapster configuration menu through the new button on the world map, as shown in the screenshot. All features (except the style) can be turned off individually if you do not need/want them.

If you're looking for a replacement to Cartographer, i also recommend the following addons:

Gathering -> GatherMate2
Waypoints -> TomTom
ZoneInfo -> Cromulent
Notes -> HandyNotes | HandyNotes Modules

Note for WoW 8.0/Battle for Azeroth:

Mapster had to be practically rebuild from scratch for WoW 8.0. More functionality will be returning in the future.

Is there a way to disable the red directional arrow? I don't use it and it gets in the way. Also, I use a Mac and I don't know if that makes a difference. Thank you - love your addon :)

I have been noticing that the mapster options button is not on the map like it used to be. it is in the upper right corner of the screen.

Thank you for making the map moveable again :)

It disappeared some time ago and I missed it.

Getting this error any time I try to interact with the map while in combat... and it's always faded out.

Same, also you cannot close the map while in combat by pressing <ESC>, you have to press whatever your map keybind is which is super annoying.

I've rolled back my installation of the addon to 1.8.0 and everything works again. I haven't, and don't care about moving the map. If adding that functionality causes so many errors, I'll just stick with the old, working version.

There you go:D,

recent Release update seems to have fixed everything :), be aware those like me who used "Move Anything" to move the map will have to either disable the addon completely or uncheck the World map frame "enabled" in the options where you moved it, then hit Reload UI or log off / in

Can any one suggest a good addon replacement for mapster? Specifically an addon that removes fog of war and allows for MOVEMENT of the map.

Still throwing .LUA errors as well as you cannot unlock and move the addon anymore. Likely related.

Any idea if you are going to add the coords to full screen map? It gets annoying having to go from full screen to small to get the coords.

@Nevcairiel i know you have other addons to work on including Ace3,

but can we please have an ETA on a fix for the unmovable world map and half the options not working ? (for example the player arrow scale and EJ/POI scale .... )

I don't believe Mapster is a priority for the dev. I messaged him and he considers the map not being movable a missing "feature" (not a bug) despite it having worked in the prior release

Techinically it is a feature since it's not throwing a .LUA error, however it needs to be prioritized since it's a MAIN FEATURE not just some little unimportant one.

In reply to cleric670:

I disagree. This is clearly a regression bug. It was working in the previous release but no longer is. Either way we're stuck with it. Who knows if or when the author will ever fix it

It's a technicality, there is no .LUA error being generated therefor it is not a BUG according to how it's classified. I agree it sucks but it's not going to be prioritized since it's not causing any issues within the client.
