More information about the author
Requires the TomCat's Tours main addon
Latest features: All rare addons now have a description panel available (similar to the quest descriptions when you click a quest in the log).
The current releases have updated loot tables but will need the spawn descriptions filled and translated. Any volunteers?
TomCat's Tours offers a lightweight tour of the Arathi Highlands rares
- View all of the rares locations on both the world map and the zone mini map.
- HandyNotes and TomTom integration if you have it
- Simple icons
- Star means you can still kill and loot the rare.
- Check mark means you have already looted this rare for the phase and have to wait for the reset to kill it again.
- You can view the stars on the Arathi Highlands map and Rares Log from anywhere
More features coming soon!
To enable Handynotes support, click Enable Plugin

Hi
Anyway you could possibly add a feature to turn off the minimap button for all characters (not just current character)
I can't remove the minimap icons either. I've turned them off in the interface settings but they still appear. I have been trying for weeks but still no resolution. I've taken some screenshots but I can't upload them here for some reason.
I have so many minimap icons that they end up getting lost behind others. As much as I enjoy the addon (and thank you Mr Dev!) I may have to uninstall it :-(
For some reason every time I log onto my warrior (my rogue works fine but has never stepped foot in Arathi highlands), even after removing saved variables for him, every tab under Tomcats tours shows Arathi highland rares. What that means is I cannot hide the minmap button for any of the other modules e.g. Mechagon. Any idea why this is happening?
Hi Th4n45:
Could you zip up all of the saved variables files for that character which begin with TomCats*, as well as any account saved variables file named the same and send that with your note as an attachment with an issue? (click issues at the top of this page). I would like to try to reproduce the error if I can. Thank you.

Is there anyway to make the stars on the main map (not the minimap) smaller?
Hi taradawes80:
Yes - under interface --> addons, under the HandyNotes section, enable TomCat's Tours as a HandyNotes plugin. From there, you can set the global icon scale and opacity which will affect the enabled TomCat's Tours icons as well.
I click the option to disable minimap icons and they do not disappear.
Would it also be possible to add an Icon scale option please?
Hi ashardiss:
Are you referring to the buttons that appear around the perimeter of the minimap, or the star icons that represent the rares? I've been having trouble to reproduce any issue, but a few people have mentioned this one, so I have to ask.

In reply to TomCat:
Minimap stars.
Icons around the minimap i can hide with https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/minimap-button-frame
In reply to ashardiss:
Icon scale, if using HandyNotes, is under Interface --> HandyNotes --> Overall settings.
Unfortunately the stars on the minimap cannot be disabled at this time without disabling the HandyNotes plugin (default sized stars will be on the world map and zone map in this case). You will have more flexibility in future feature updates!

thats what my options look like
Am I missing something on what to toggle off to turn off the stars on my map? It makes questing the zone on a lower level rather annoying.
Hi artiesaur:
The easiest way to do this currently is to disable the addon for your lower level characters. I hope this helps.

As usual Mr Cat, I love your add ons :D It'd be neat if, there were a few options for.. hmm.. personal notes on the list? I'm thinking a 'right click on Enemy name, select options from list' sort of thing, with a symbol showing up next to the name, or affecting the name somehow.
For example..
Bold/Green - I want this mob's drop
Strike through/gray - I don't need/want this drop
red text or marker - This mob is dangerous to me.
(of course, red and green are risky, due to color blind people.. so I'd probably make sure to use symbols too.)
Doesn't need to do any auto tracking or anything -- just let me change them for myself. (I tend to play with my spouse, so I might still 'need' to go kill someone even if I already have the drop, because he doesn't.)
(OTOH, auto tracking with group syncing could be neat :D )
I dunno, I love this addon, I just wish I could remember that I don't need to kill Korvok before I kill him again haha :)
