# Zquest changelog

## 1.23.4-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Click an upcoming step in the guide window ("Accept Goretusk Liver Pie"...) and the second, smaller arrow (the one the profession trainer uses) points there with its distance, while your main arrow stays on your current quest, so you can decide whether it's worth the detour. Click another step to switch; right-click the small arrow to hide it; it hides by itself once that step is done.

- Right-click an upcoming step to skip it (< Back brings it back). The blue Nearby box: left-click points the main arrow at it, right-click skips it.

- The "Now" step box works the same way: left-click puts the small arrow on it (handy when the main arrow is on a Nearby quest), right-click skips it, shift-click shows the quest details (what a plain click used to do).

## 1.23.3-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Click any upcoming step in the guide window ("Accept ...", "Turn in ...", "Complete ...") and the arrow points there: an Accept step points at the quest giver. Once that step is done (quest accepted, turned in or finished) the arrow goes back to the guide by itself; right-click the arrow to go back sooner.

- Right-click an upcoming step to skip it (< Back brings it back).

- The blue Nearby box works the same way: left-click points the arrow at it, right-click skips it (it used to skip on any click).

## 1.23.2-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Profession trainers you talk to now show up for the trainer arrow. WoW Forever titles them by trade ("Skinner", "Miner", "Herbalist"...), so Zquest recorded them but never matched them to "Skinning Trainer". They're now saved under the standard title, trainers you already recorded are fixed when you log in, and the same goes for trainers other Zquest players share with you.

## 1.23.1-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Dungeons tab: the "While you're here" box no longer shows world drop quests while you're leveling with dungeons. It comes back on the Quests tab.

## 1.23.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Settings page in Esc > Options > AddOns > ZTV Addons, with on/off switches and quick buttons.

- Guide, dungeon and saved-data switches on the settings page (also: Guide, dungeon and data settings button in /zq options, or /zq settings).

- /zqd cleanup tidies the dungeon data that came over from ZQD: removes empty or broken entries, keeps kills, loot and runs. /zqd cleanup old 90 forgets dungeons you haven't visited in 90 days, /zqd cleanup runs clears run history, /zqd cleanup all wipes it (asks twice).

- /zq cleanup also removes empty records from your recorded quest data; /zq cleanup info shows how much is saved.

## 1.22.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- "While you're here" box in the guide window: when a monster in your current zone drops an item that starts a quest you can do (Lakota'mani's Hoof, Owatanka's Tailspike, Washte Pawne's Feather, Croaky's Head...), the guide tells you who to kill, where, and which quest it starts. Click for an arrow to it, right-click to hide it for the zone. /zq guide drops on|off. Translated like the rest of the guide.

## 1.21.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Guides now start with a "bring materials" tip when the zone has quests that need crafted, bought or fished items (Thorium Bars, bombs, cloth, elixirs, fish...): which quest, who gives it, what it needs, whether it's for a profession, and what unlocks it. 23 guides (Alliance and Horde) have one. The tip clears itself when you do the guide's first quest step.

## 1.20.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Alliance guides 30-60: Hillsbrad, Arathi, Desolace, Stranglethorn, Dustwallow, Badlands, Swamp of Sorrows, Hinterlands, Feralas, Tanaris, Searing Gorge, Blasted Lands, Un'Goro, Azshara, Felwood, Burning Steppes, Western and Eastern Plaguelands, Winterspring and Silithus. With the 1-31 guides (rebuilt so quest chains carry over from one zone to the next), the Alliance now has 30 guides from 1 to 60.

- Languages: the guide window, arrows, reminders and dungeon mode now speak English, Deutsch, Français, Español, Português, Русский, 简体中文, 繁體中文 and 한국어 (picked from your game language). Quest names show in your language when the game knows them. Guide step notes stay in English for now.

## 1.19.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Alliance leveling guides, first part (1-31): Elwynn Forest 1-11 (Human), Dun Morogh 1-11 (Dwarf & Gnome), Teldrassil 1-11 (Night Elf), Westfall 11-18, Loch Modan 11-18, Darkshore 11-20, Redridge 18-24, Ashenvale 20-27, Wetlands 22-30, Duskwood 24-31. Chained like the Horde guides. Built from Zquest's WoW Forever quest data, including Forever's new quests, with every quest order and chain checked against the database.

## 1.18.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Trainers grow the database: when you open any trainer (profession or class), Zquest records who they are ("Mining Trainer"), which side they serve and where they stand, and shares it with your group, guild and the Zquest network. Trainers others find reach you the same way, so the trainer arrows (gathering and class) get better the more people play. Facts from strangers on the network still need two different players to agree before they're used.

## 1.17.0-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Click the gathering box at the bottom of the guide window: a second, smaller arrow points to your nearest Mining / Herbalism / Skinning trainer ("Upgrade your Mining here"), while the quest arrow keeps pointing at your quest. Click again for your next gathering profession, then off. Right-click the trainer arrow to hide it; it also goes away when you talk to a profession trainer. Right-click the box still hides the zone tip.

## 1.16.1-forever.1 (2026-11-14)

- Dungeons mode: the dungeon you're inside always comes first ("You're in this dungeon", no arrow to the entrance), and the other suggestions are ordered by how close their entrance is (with distance), instead of only by level.

## 1.16.0-forever.1 (2026-11-13)

- Zquest Dungeons (ZQD) is now part of Zquest. One addon: quests, the leveling guide, the dungeon journal, boss log, XP stats and dungeon quests. /zqd still opens the journal. (Remove or disable the old ZQD addon if you have it.)

- Guide window: new Questing / Dungeons switch. Dungeons mode shows the best dungeons for your level, the quests to pick up before you go and the ones already in your log, and the arrow points to the entrance. Click the step box to cycle dungeons. Switch back any time. Also /zq guide dungeons and /zq guide quests.

- XP stats button on the guide window (and the Zquest database window): XP per hour, time to level, rested XP, kills to level and your dungeon runs. Also /zq guide xp.

- Dungeons button on the Zquest database window opens the dungeon journal.

## 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)

- Author and copyright details updated (ZTV Addons by Ezequiel Marrero, Copyright (c) 2026 BIOWARE INC.). Zquest stays GPL-3.0 because its data comes from QuestieDB.

- 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.
