Map markers gone =/

[Raidin]

As a Herbalist, I mark my map with every plant I find for easier access to what I need. Last night however, I had problems logging on my main character. The game would freeze up instantly after the world was rendered upon logon and my computer would lock up with it.

I read on WoW's forums that others were having the same issue, and it was due to Cosmos. By removing Cosmos, the problem was gone for everyone who tried it. I moved everything in the Interface folder to another folder I made. I also moved Cosmos***** and the Cosmos Prepatch text file.

I decided to try putting Cosmos back in after trying out the Gypsy mod which I didn't like. I moved the folders back into the Interface folder and put Cosmos***** back where it was. Now Cosmos is working fine, my second bar has all the stuff I had put in it just as before. Except one little problem, my map no longer has any markers.

How do I get them back?

You won't get them back, sorry :(

This is because WoW only saves variables that are "set" to be saved. If no script is running that says: "Save this variable" then the varibale doesn't get saved again and all the information ist lost. (This could also happen after a patch, becauce when the interface number changes, the AddOns must be updated and WoW doen't load them until they are.)

To mack a backup of your (future) notes, copy "World Of Warcraft\WTF\Account\<ACCOUNTNAME>\SavedVariables.lua" to a save place (you will have to do this regulary).


If you are human and placed the notes in elwynn forrest, you can get my file (this offer only applies to the topic starter)
