Atlas Companion

Features

• Compass to anything: /goto how do i get to Razor Hill points an arrow to any place, NPC or mob.
• Proximity alerts: /find alerts you when you get near something.
• Shared guild map: classic herb and ore spawns built in; herbs and ore you gather are recorded automatically; /awpsave saves a spot the whole guild can use.
• Heal frames: click a name for a quick heal (choose your spell in settings, or hide the bars if you don't heal); aggro colors: red = you're tanking safely, orange = about to lose it, yellow = about to pull it.
• Guild database: vendor stock and prices, quest objectives, rewards and real XP/gold, trainer recipes, mob abilities, and banker/auctioneer/flight master/questgiver locations, all captured in the background as we play.
• Tools: /atlassettings settings panel; /atlasitems lists everything in your bags.

Install (do these in order, every time you update too)

1. Click Download installer below and run it. Windows will likely say “Windows protected your PC” since it isn’t code-signed — click More info, then Run anyway.
2. Finish the install wizard (default options are fine).
3. Launch WoW Forever. At the character select screen, click AddOns (bottom left) and make sure AtlasTracker is checked. This is the #1 cause of "nothing works" — the game unchecks new/updated addons sometimes, especially right after a patch.
4. Start the separate Atlas Companion program from your Start Menu (search "Atlas Companion"). This is a different program from the addon — the addon alone never uploads your data, only the Companion does. Leave it running in the background while you play.
5. Log into your character. You should see a chat message from Atlas confirming it loaded. If it instead says the addon is incompatible, you're on an older installer than the current WoW Forever patch — redownload the latest version here.
6. Optional but recommended: type /atlassettings in-game to open the settings panel and set your own heal spell, or /atlasvoice heal <your spell> if you use the heal-frames module.

Troubleshooting

• Nothing works: at character select, AddOns, make sure AtlasTracker is checked. The game sometimes unchecks updated addons after a patch.
• Addon says "incompatible": your installer is older than the current WoW Forever patch. Download the latest version above.
• Atlas warns the Companion isn't running: start Atlas Companion from the Start Menu. The addon alone never uploads anything.
• Full command list: QUICKSTART.txt under Start Menu > Atlas Companion. Still stuck? Ask in our Discord.

Release notes (older builds)

WoW add-on (official, sanctioned APIs — nothing that risks your account) plus a small local program that feeds our shared map, quest, and boss-ability database as you play. Includes a compass arrow that guides you to any place, NPC or mob — type /goto how do i get to Razor Hill — /find to get alerted when you get near something, and /awpsave to add spots the whole guild can use. Herbs and ore you gather are recorded automatically, and the classic herb and ore spawn points are built in. New in v2.0: an in-game settings panel (/atlassettings), /atlasitems to list everything in your bags, and passive background capture of trainer recipes, merchant inventory, and mob abilities to build out our shared database — plus an early, experimental heal-frames module that's still being tested, so expect rough edges there specifically.

• New in v2.0.13: banker, auctioneer, flight master, and questgiver NPC locations are now captured by role, not lumped in as generic NPCs. If you haven't updated since today's patch, please grab v2.0.13. Windows 10/11. One installer, nothing else to install.
• New in v2.0.12: quest objective text, reward item choices, and the real XP/gold a quest pays (captured at turn-in, since Blizzard removed the old API for reading it) all now build into our shared database too — the start of real "which quests are worth doing" data for everyone.
• New in v2.0.11: real vendor inventory capture — every merchant window you open now records what's for sale and the price (gold or alt-currency like Merchant's Favor), building a shared "where do I buy this" database for everyone.
• v2.0.10 (important, update now): today's WoW Forever patch (level cap 30) bumped the client to a new version, which made the AddOns screen show AtlasTracker as "incompatible" for everyone — meaning the addon stops running and ALL data capture (quests, positions, loot, everything) silently stops until this is installed.
• v2.0.9: the REAL fix for click-to-heal not working — it wasn't the threat-highlight work (v2.0.8's revert didn't actually fix it either). The true cause was health-percent bar coloring silently breaking click-casting every second in the background. That coloring attempt is now removed for good; health is still shown via the bar's fill width.
• New in v2.0.6: heal frames now highlight aggro — red if you're tanking safely, orange if you're about to lose it, yellow if you're about to pull it.
• New in v2.0.5: that quick-click heal (and the voice "heal <name>" command) is no longer locked to one class's spell — set your own in the settings panel, and hide the heal bars entirely if you're not healing.
• New in v2.0.4: click the name on a heal frame for a quick rank-2 heal, separate from whatever your main heal-click is set to.
• New in v2.0.3: heal-frame names are now actually visible (a real rendering bug, now fixed).
• New in v2.0.2: the addon now tells you in chat if the Companion program isn't actually running, instead of silently not sharing your data.
