Okay, thanks for the steps to reproduce this, I am on another alt to test this issue

[Ozzi]

Okay I am unable to reproduce this issue even with your proposed settings, there must be something else that’s contributing to this.
To prove that there’s no taints I’ll attach a video here Bare with me being rusty with my evoker, it’s only used for guide writing.

I write guides regularly and do not come across these taints at all.
What else do you use?

Can you provide a screenshot of the addons tab in your character select screen please.
Does this occur with dugiguides disabled? this question was not answered.
You can repeat the ‘kill squirrels (100%)’ quest by instead of turning in the quest, to abandon the quest and re accept it, I might try this but on a different character.

Perhaps you can provide a bit of game footage with an example of whats going on.

To also note that when I answer threads/posts I answer with absolute certainty and I am always serious, I never answer with jokes or to provide any fraudulent motives. So, I am not trying to stall or cause a runaround with this issue. I am dead set serious to find whats causing this.

I use no other addons.

This issue does not occur with Dugi Guides disabled.

Please provide me with an exact quest that is a 100% completion quest that I can use for testing.  At this point I have only used natural progression through the guide until I find a completion quest resulting in significant delays in providing examples.

[mag046]

1. Installed guide version 9.043.
2. WTF purge of account folder while logged out of client.
3. Log back into the client/game/character with guide enabled.
4. Configured guide settings as follows:

• Questing -> uncheck ‘Floating Item Button’ and ‘Auto Quest Tracking’
• Dugi Arrow -> uncheck ‘Show Ant Trail’ and ‘Icon Arrow’
• Dugi Zone Map -> uncheck ‘Enable Zone Map’
• Display -> uncheck ‘Anchored Small Frame’ and ‘Fixed Width Small Frame’
• Frames -> uncheck ‘Small Frame Border’
• Maps -> uncheck ‘Hide Border’
• Taxi System -> default selections
• Target Button -> uncheck ‘Target Button’ (default unchecks all below)
• Tooltip -> default selections
• Gear Set -> default selections
• Gear Scoring -> default selections
• Gear Finder -> default selections
• Auto Mount -> default selections
• Notifications -> default selections
• Other -> uncheck ‘CTRL + Right Click Arrow Menu’
• Guide Sharing BETA -> Uncheck ‘Enable Guide Sharing’
• Profiles -> default selections

5. Waking Shores guide quested until I got to “Fight Fire with… Water” (100%).
6. Completed the quest to 100%, error encountered.
7. Reloaded the UI via the LUA error window and the guide advanced.
8. Abandoned the quest.
9. Re-checked ‘Icon Arrow’.
10. Completed the quest to 100%, error encountered.  Did not encounter in previous testing.

I am going to reset the guide settings to default and work through the quest as I uncheck them one-by-one and test further.

That’s a good idea, I will use these settings on an alt and see if I can get any taints.

There are several though out Dragonflight, some are through quest lines and there are some World Quests as well.

It would be easier to progress a character / alt through a guide up to “Some Objective (100%)”. I wouldn’t rely on a World Quest as they are limited on a timer, also there’s a chance that the WQ may not appear on another character.

[mag046]

With all settings enabled/checked, the guide progresses normally.  I have unchecked the checkboxes through ‘Show Ant Trail’ and no error encountered.  I will work through this more today as I have time.

There are a lot of settings combinations to try considering it may be one or a combination of multiple. I am at a loss as to why I could previously reproduce the error, multiple times, on multiple computers by unchecking/rechecking the ‘Icon Arrow’ box.

[mag046]

I have narrowed it down to the Display -> Anchored Small Frame setting.  I have left all other settings at default.

If I uncheck the Display -> ‘Anchored Small Frame’ checkbox, the error is encountered repeatedly.

I occasionally get the crash when just accepting the “Fighting Fire with… Water” (100%) quest used in the testing above.

Possibly related or a by-product of the ‘Anchored Small Frame’ issue I reported in the other thread?

[Dugi]

we made some fixes regarding the anchored frame and a small frame, this issue might be fixed as a result.  can you tell me if its still occurring with latest update 9.044

[mag046]

I installed the latest update 9.044.
I unchecked Display -> ‘Anchored Small Frame’ checkbox.
I left all other settings at default.

Unfortunately, the guide/frame still produces the error.

Thanks for the update!

[Dugi]

we’ll look into this 

[mag046]

I have a character parked on that specific quest.  I will continue to test.  Please let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks!
