LUA error

[mouseymousey88]

I have had a LUA error come up can anyone help me?

Do I have to disable RatingBuster?

Or will it dissapear if I upgrade to Version 2 of the guide.

I use RatingBuster and have no problems using v2.0 of the guide. Can you post a copy of the LUA error?

Have you tried installing the newest version of the guide that was just released?

Yes the newest Version 2.0

I have the same error and posted it already HERE in the bugs and errors section.
It seems to be related to a non english WoW client (I use german).
I helped myself for the moment by just using the new guide files with the older version of the Zygor viewer as the most wanted feature for me is the automatic step advancement which also works with the older viewer and the new guide files.

Where can I get the older Version ? Iam finding only the version 2.0 for download.

[Cartman]

If you don't have the older version 2.0.566 you'll have to wait a bit.
Maybe they fix the problem later today, otherwise I can upload an older viewer (without the guide files which you can take from the current version 2.0.626).

The older 1.0 version of the guide is no longer available because it is not compliant with Blizzards policies.

Ok, but how I get my problem with the error solved ?

[ZG Support 1]

The best thing to do is to go to your World of Warcraft / Interface / AddOns folder, delete everything you see there with Zygor and Cartographer in the name, then download the latest version of the guide from the Members Area and install.

[Cartman]

As I stated in the other thread in the bugs and errors section this does not solve the problem with the lua error.
When I switched my WoW to english the error went away. But that is no option for me.
The 2.0.566 viewer works, even with the guide files from 2.0.626.
And it seems that the 2.0.626 viewer also works when you manually select a guide but it throws the error on login and does not remember the guide and position.

[Cartman]

I tested the viewer 2.0.626 again and I get the error even when I only have cartographer and Zygor guide active. And I tried deleting the saved variables also.
And the new guide viewer does not work, it does not automatically advance but throws the error again when part of a goal is completed (e.g. one item is picked up).
The error does not show when logging in with an empty quest log. But when accepting a quest it immediatly comes up.

I tried something. I added the line DEFAULT_CHAT_FRAME:AddMessage(QUEST_OBJECTS_FOUND) to the parseleaderboard function and it showed %1$s: %2$d/%3$d when playing a in german and %s: %d/%d in any other language.
It seems Blizzard messed something up with the constants in the german version.

I modified the function and got the guide viewer working, tested with german, english, spanish and french.
