Zquest

Quest smarter in WoW Forever with map markers, leveling guides, a navigation arrow, corpse tracking, flight timers, and helpful reminders. Zquest records discoveries as you play and shares quest data with other users to grow its database.

## 1.15.1-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- When you die and release, the guide arrow points to your body (red "Your body" label), even if the guide window is closed. Once you're alive it goes back to the guide. /zq guide corpse on|off.

 

## 1.15.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- New "Q" button on the guide window: see-through quest tracker. Fades the quest tracker (and the quest log and guide window) to 20% so you can see the world behind them; mouse over one to read it. /zq guide ghost [on|off|0-90] sets it and how faint.

 

## 1.14.2-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Guide: your gathering levels (Mining, Herbalism, Skinning) and the "gather before you leave" tip moved to a
  small green box at the bottom of the guide window, under the quest steps, so they never push your current
  step down. Right-click the box to hide the tip for that zone; the levels stay.

 

## 1.14.1-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Fixed "Zquest tried to call protected function SetPassThroughButtons" in combat. "Show on map" (and ZQD's quest list) no longer opens or switches the world map itself; that tainted the map's quest pins. It marks the spot and tells you which zone to open.
- Auto accept/turn-in pauses during combat (do it by hand; it resumes after). Shift-click waypoints are blocked in combat.

 

## 1.14.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- New flight timer: when you take a flight path, a bar shows where you're flying and how long is left. The first time on a route it's an estimate from the route length; every finished flight is timed and saved (shared by all your characters), so next time it's exact. Shift-drag to move. /zq flight on | off | reset.

 

## 1.13.1-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Guide banner: the gathering-profession reminder now sits at the bottom.
- A flight path you haven't picked up stays at the top of the banner (with its distance) until you learn it or right-click to hide it, even after you leave the area or /reload.

 

## 1.13.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Gathering reminders: if your Mining, Herbalism or Skinning is below what the zone you're in can still level
  it to, the guide reminds you to gather before you leave, and to train the next tier when you're near your cap.
  Right-click to hide it for that zone. /zq guide gathering on|off|reset.

 

## 1.12.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Nearby quests: if a quest you can do right now (pick up, objectives or turn in, from the guide or your log)
  is within 1000 yards and closer than your current step, it jumps to the top of the guide window and the arrow
  points to it. Click it to skip that one. /zq guide nearby off|on|<yards>|reset.

 

## 1.11.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Vendor reminder: after a quest turn-in, if you're carrying junk or have 4 or fewer free bag slots, the guide
  shows the nearest vendor of your faction in your zone (click for the arrow, right-click to dismiss; opening a
  merchant clears it). /zq guide vendor on|off, /zq guide vendor <free slots>.
- ZquestAPI: other ZTV addons (ZQD) can read the quest database.

 

## 1.10.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Flight path tips: when you're near a flight master of your faction you haven't picked up yet, the guide
  window says so. Click to point the arrow there, right-click to hide it until you relog. Zquest learns which
  flight paths you have whenever you open a flight map. /zq guide flightpaths on|off.

 

## 1.9.1-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Guide window is scalable: drag the grip in its bottom-right corner, or Ctrl + mouse wheel over it.
  Ctrl + mouse wheel over the arrow scales the arrow. /zq guide scale and /zq guide arrowscale (0.5-2). Sizes are saved.

 

## 1.9.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- "As you go" quests (sticky steps): slow-drop collection quests like Plainstrider Menace and Raptor Thieves
  sit on an "As you go" list with live progress while the guide moves on; a catch-up step before the turn-in
  ticks itself off if you already finished. Added to the slow-drop quests in every guide.

 

## 1.8.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Level-up reminders in the guide window: unspent talent points (from level 10) and new spells at your
  class trainer (every even level). Click the banner to point the arrow at the nearest trainer of your class;
  right-click to dismiss. Visiting a class trainer clears it. /zq guide trainer, /zq guide reminders on|off.

 

## 1.7.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Party announcements, like Questie: "{Zquest} Accepted: ..." and "{Zquest} Completed: ..." in party chat.
  Objective progress and turn-ins can be switched on too. /zq announce for settings, /zq announce test to try it.

 

## 1.6.1-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Guides skip quests you never picked up that are grey for you or that you can no longer get
  (skipped chain, exclusive, hidden). /zq guide lowbie <n> also skips green quests n+ levels below you;
  /zq guide lowbie off shows everything again.
- Go-to and note steps tick themselves off once the quests after them are done or skipped.
- Logging in above your saved guide's level range moves you along the chain to a guide that fits.

 

## 1.6.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Horde guides now run 1-60: added Un'Goro Crater 48-54, Felwood 50-54, Winterspring 53-58,
  Western Plaguelands 53-58, Eastern Plaguelands 54-58 and Silithus 55-60, plus a Burning Steppes 52-55 side trip.

 

## 1.5.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- New Horde guides, chained from level 1 to 50: Stonetalon 18-24, Ashenvale 20-26, Thousand Needles 25-30,
  Hillsbrad 28-33, Arathi 30-36, Stranglethorn 34-40, Badlands & Swamp of Sorrows 38-45, Feralas 42-47, Tanaris 43-50.
- EnemyCount fix noted separately (1.6.1).

 

## 1.4.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- New guides: Mulgore 1-12 (Tauren), Tirisfal 1-12 (Undead) and The Barrens 12-20 (all Horde).
  The starting-zone guides hand off to The Barrens automatically.
- Guide arrow: new beveled art that blends from red (far) to yellow to green (close) and pulses when you arrive.
- Click a quest in your quest log or tracker and the arrow follows it (objectives, then the turn-in).
  Right-click the arrow or /zq guide clear to go back to the guide.

 

## 1.3.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Leveling guides (Zygor style): a guide window shows your current step and the next few, steps tick off
  on their own from your quest log, and an arrow points at the nearest quest giver, turn-in or objective.
- First guide: Durotar 1-12 for Orcs and Trolls (Valley of Trials, Sen'jin, Razor Hill, north Durotar,
  then on to the Crossroads). Picked automatically for new Orc and Troll characters.
- Guide quests are accepted and turned in automatically (hold Shift to stop it, /zq guide auto to turn it off).
  Quests with a reward choice wait for you to pick.
- /zq guide, /zq guide list, /zq guide <number>, /zq guide arrow, /zq guide lock, /zq guide reset.

 

## 1.2.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- The Zquest network: every player's quest database now swaps with every other player's, and whatever you
  receive is passed on to the next player you meet, so data spreads to everyone over time.
  - Group: automatic, as before.
  - Guild: guild members running Zquest swap databases one to one.
  - ZquestNet: a hidden chat channel every Zquest player joins (kept out of your chat windows), so strangers
    in the world can swap too. A fact from strangers is only accepted once two different players have sent it.
- Messages are packed together and back off when the game throttles them; nothing is sent in combat.
- /zq guild on|off, /zq net on|off, /zq sync now; /zq mydb shows Zquest players seen and unconfirmed facts.

 

## 1.1.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- Your own quest database: Zquest now records what you see while you play (quest givers and turn-ins,
  quest levels and objectives, kill targets, where quest items drop, use/explore spots, quest chains, and the
  game's own quest map markers). Saved account-wide in ZquestRecordDB.
- Group sync: group members running Zquest swap their recorded data automatically (only recorded data, never
  the legacy data files). Only accepts data from people in your group. /zq sync on|off, /zq sync now.
- Recorded data shows on the map and in tooltips right away, next to the legacy data.
- /zq mydb shows how big your own database is and how much of the legacy data it covers.
- /zq legacy off (or the checkbox in options) switches the legacy data files off to preview Zquest running
  on your own data only.
- OwnData\Shipped.lua: your recorded data can be built into the addon itself (tools/zquest-export/build_own_db.py),
  so every player starts with it.

 

## 1.0.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)
- First release for WoW: Forever (interface 16001).
- Built-in quest database: 5,515 Forever quests, 7,206 NPCs, 1,171 objects and 3,906 items,
  with Forever corrections, Horde-specific fixes and unobtainable quests filtered out.
- World map and minimap icons: ! quest givers (yellow, grey for low level or coming soon, blue for repeatable),
  ? turn-ins, and kill / loot / use-object / explore spots for quests in your log. Finished objectives disappear.
- Filters by level, race, class, prerequisites, exclusive quests, breadcrumbs, professions and reputation.
- Tooltips: quest progress on NPCs, items and objects, plus "!" and "?" lines on quest givers.
- /zq search window: find any quest, NPC, object or item by name or ID, see its status, who starts and ends it,
  its targets and prerequisites, and pin it on the map.
- Pin clicks: click for details, Shift-click sets a waypoint, right-click a ! to hide that quest (/zq unhide).
- Options window (/zq options) and an entry in the game's AddOns settings.
