- I'll try to keep this brief. Note: The formatting alone makes this look longer than it really is. This AddOn will give you your characters (x, y) coordinates located under the Mini map and it will updated in real time as you move around. Minor programming experience with any language is recommended. Begin: In a skeleton AddOn (bare bones) there are 3 files: an .xml, .toc, and .lua file all of which have the same name and located in a folder named the same which must be located in your Interface/AddOns folder. eg C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\eCoordinates\ eCoordinates.toc

Begin: In a skeleton AddOn (bare bones) there are 3 files: an .xml, .toc, and .lua file all of which have the same name and located in a folder named the same which must be located in your Interface/AddOns folder. eg C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\eCoordinates\ eCoordinates.toc eCoordinates.xml eCoordinates.lua Open up any text editor. Create and save each of these files with their respected names and extensions. Note: If you have eCoordinates.toc.txt or similar, you will fail. Warcraft will first read your .toc file as the program is first loading and logging into the server. Therefore, any edits must be saved prior to opening up WOW client for testing. If you edit this file at any point you must exit the game and reenter. The other two files may be edited while the game is open. Any changes you make to the .xml or .lua file can be seen after reloading [ /reload ] your screen. Two dashes (--) are used to create comments in both .lua and .toc file. I may ask you to run something in your game client. It will be between 2 braces [ /reload ]. Copy and paste into your chat box while in-game
