    Making a free leveling guide addon.

    So I've leveled 14 characters to 85 since Cata dropped and I think I've gotten down a nice pattern that levels pretty quickly. I was originally going to upload it here with the maps and long drawn out explanations and I almost finished that, but I decided I want to translate my leveling paths into an addon like Zygor's except I'm going to release it for free.

    This is going to be quite a bit of work, and since the only language I can actually write in is Java and Actionscript, I'm most likely going to have to learn an entire other language to do it. So I'm asking for someone to point me in the right direction programming wise, and I'm inviting anyone who wants to join in on the project to PM me. I do understand the amount of work that goes into things like this, but I have 12+ hours of free time everyday (am in HS, living with wealthy relatives who love me to be at their house because they are technologically retarded) so I am eager to start working on something that will fill my time.

    If you have any tips or things you would like to see included besides the obvious arrow pointing to the next waypoint and the clear explanation of what the quest requires, please comment and let me know.

    It's great you have some programming background, my best advice is to break apart Zygor, and see how they did it. As well as Zygor actually comes with a pdf of how to make your own profiles for it. Goodluck!

    You can get Zygor for free though. Would post a link but can't on this website.

    Good advice, it's what I was planning to do.

    I know, but I'd still like to create my own, and mine would be free legally.
