Simple Skyshards  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 1.06
by: Alianym [More]
Welcome to Simple Skyshards!

Like the name implies this is a no-fuss custom implementation of Skyshards on the map (zone, delve, etc.). It works well with Votan's Minimap, AUI's minimap, and Minimap By Fyrakin. It'll also work with Map Pins, you'll just obviously need to disable the "skyshards" filter so they don't conflict.

What Does It Do:

I know what you're thinking. What makes this different, or a reasonable alternative to other Skyshard AddOns out there? Well instead of doing a direct comparison, I'll just list the core features of this one and you can decide for yourself, you discerning user!
  • Unlike other AddOns, Simple Skyshards does not need user input to update Skyshard data!
    • This means any time new skyshards are added to the game, this will populate them immediately on your map/s!
  • Works side-by-side with (and on top of) the base game Skyshard icons and logic
  • Showing skyshards on the compass is handled by the base game, simply get close enough and it shall appear
    • If all else fails, as it is visible accurately on the map with SimpleSkyshards; put a map marker at it's location and follow that on your compass!
  • Supports all languages the game supports (en, fr, de, ru, jp, es)
  • No libraries required. Cut down on the additional extras!
    • I may add LibAddonMenu-2 as optional if there are requests for certain options
  • Friendly AddOn author who's always willing to lend a hand if you need anything!
  • Fully compatible with Gamepad!

MAIN NOTES:
  • Delve or Public Dungeon Skyshards are noted in the tooltip where applicable, and on the zone map they are placed atop the entrance
  • 'Underground' Skyshards, (i.e. Delves and Dungeons on the zone map, and ones like Clockwork City – Fundament), are slightly transparent

QUICK NOTES:
  • This doesn't provide an option to see Completed Skyshards, because the base game does that already
    • It does however add to the base game feature by displaying underground Completed Skyshards on the zone map
  • It doesn't provide an option to hide Undiscovered Skyshards because the point of the AddOn is to show them.

If this suits your needs, great! Download it and try it out. If it doesn't, that's fine too! If it's close, let me know what I can add and I'll see what I can do!
(To other authors: if you're interested in a library version of this AddOn that provides Skyshard data, let me know and I can look into it.)

Gamepad Support:
Supports Gamepad! All features are available there as well.

Required Libraries:
<NONE>
v1.06
  • Didn't get to thoroughly test this, but also didn't change much. Let me know if you notice anything strange!
  • Fixed pin spam, tweaked some compatibility code
    • (Thanks Masteroshi430!)

v1.05
  • Efficiency Update (1) (Thanks DakJaniels! Completely forgot about ESO Profiler and profiling a UI reload)
    • Let's hope this speeds things up a bit. Maybe not all the way, but progress. :)

v1.04
  • BUG FIX: Fixed bug with Delve / Public Dungeon Skyshards not showing on Telvanni Peninsula zone map
  • (If anyone else is having freezing or delay issues, by the way, leave a comment or send a DM)

v1.03
  • NEW FEATURE: Simple Skyshards UI addition: Gathered / Total

v1.02
  • NEW FEATURE: Acquired Delve and Dungeon Skyshards will now be displayed on the zone map if the appropriate toggle is on in the map menu

v1.01
  • Renamed the AddOn folder inside the zip, because it had a version number in it accidentally

Hi there,
I try to make both this addon and my version of Minimap by Fyrakin work together,
I just integrated base game skyshards display in the minimap and wanted to disable it when your addon is running like I did with the skyshards addon, the pins are there but for some reason they do not display...
I don't know if I will let my integration run so that your users can see the pins on main map and the minimap of find a solution for your pins to display on the minimap and then block my skyshards code when your addon is running...

EDIT: Oh it looks like the skyshard pins are being added constantly...
"RefreshSkyshardPins" is spamming every few milliseconds, it looks like that if you remove:
Lua Code:
  1. SecurePostHook(WORLD_MAP_MANAGER, "RefreshSkyshardPins", function()
  2.     RefreshCustomPins()
  3. end)
and put
Lua Code:
  1. EVENT_MANAGER:RegisterForEvent(addOnName, EVENT_SKYSHARDS_UPDATED, function() RefreshCustomPins() end)
just before
Lua Code:
  1. EVENT_MANAGER:UnregisterForEvent(addOnName, EVENT_PLAYER_ACTIVATED)
your addon will spam a lot less and will still work good.

EDIT2: I have the display fixed my side, it looks like the pins were drawing under the map
---- version 2024.02.19 of Minimap By Fyrakin is fully compatible with Simple Skyshards ----
Fix the spam please

I recommend collecting data once per patch and saving it in savedVariable

Is it all characters, or is it specific to ones with lots (or few) Skyshards collected?
I'm talking about the addon in general, not about any specific version. I don't have an old computer, 8 cores, 16 GB of RAM, etc. Disabling the addon removes the freeze. It appears on any character - on the old one with all collected skyshards and on the new character. Apparently, the freeze is caused by the collection of data about skyshards that occurs when loading a character. I'm talking about the freeze that occurs after the loading screen, after loading the UI

Use this Addon since release but it would be much better if it has an option in the map filter to turn it off.
