Description

#143 mentioned an issue with Quest Names not showing up. This has been a thing since AAP, where to keep the addon size down, the Names of NPCs or Quests are not loaded into the Addon and instead use just the QuestIDs and Quest Parts.

AAP and now APR hook into the character's cache folder to grab the QuestID to Quest Name conversion once they have been interacted with at least once, on a previous character.

Solution

Possibly hook into more Addons for databases, currently APR is moving into Ace3, but Grail was brought up.

Grail: https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/grail & https://github.com/smaitch/Grail (

Note: It has not been updated to the current patch level, and includes both Classic, PTR, and Retail. We would extract just the Retail information.

Alternative solutions

Look into other alternatives with Ace3 to compile a list of all Quest ID's to Quest Names, that way the Quest Name will show up right away from the first time playing, regardless if you had interacted with it previously (new character, or new expansion).

Any additional information?
