Gatherer   Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Gatherer is an addon for herbalists, miners and treasure hunters in World of Warcraft. It's main purpose is to track the closest plants, deposits and treasure locations on your minimap.

The addon does not track like a tracking ability does, rather it "remembers" where you have found various items in the past. It does this whenever you gather (perform herbalism, mining or opening) on an item, and records the specific map location in its history. From then on, whenever the item comes into range of being one of the closest 1-25 (configurable) items to your present location, it will pop up on you minimap.

When you view your World Map, you will also see the item locations marked on the particular map you are viewing there.

For more information, please visit us at http://www.gathereraddon.com/


INSTALLATION:
--------------
Extract the data to your "World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns" directory so that the "Gatherer" directory is a subdirectory of the "AddOns" directory.


USAGE:
--------------
Just use the game as normal.
When you gather things, they will appear on your minimap and your main map.
If you want to configure the addon, click the Gatherer configuration icon floating around your minimap frame or type /gather options.

Re: Can't find myself on map

Imagoo99,

This was something none of us noticed, quite honestly. We did not even know about it until someone pointed it out a couple weeks ago.

It is on the "to do list", but no ETA as of right now.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

Can someone tell me it there is a way to enable that...since sometimes it is difficult for me to find my character arrow without the pulsing circles to draw the eye. Love this addon though!

Blink1ce,

Ensure that you have a gold checkmark next to the Gatherer, GathererHUD, Swatter, and SlideBar entries in the main WoW AddOns Control Panel and all should work just fine.

If not, try re-downloading and reinstalling. Gatherer works on all OSes in WoW 3.2, so long as you have the Load Out of Date checked, which is why we have not put out a new version simply for that.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

If you do all of that, try disabling your other AddOns to see if any are interfering.

Should there be other issues, let us know.

Happy Gatherering,

Gatherer is no longer showing me the nodes on my minimap, but they do show up on the main map. I use dMinimap, but have used to for a while, and the nodes used to show up fine even with this minimap addon. Does anyone know if there might be another addon known to cause this to happen? Or maybe something... else? Hrm.

As for the DB, that is referring to Gatherer, as it is a dependency. Once you load out of date, you will be set to go.

It would be nice if it did something like check the bags for the Zapthrottle Mote Extractor and, if present, show the "nodes" in the maps. Nice to organize a gathering route for clouds, for exemple.

Thanks!

Capthabbity,

Each node is not active at all times. They spawn randomly, in accordance with algorithms known to Blizzard. Each of the locations was verified at the time the DB was created and they have not been modified since.

As to the node type, for some nodes, there are "special" types that are possible to spawn, for instance Silver is a special or rare spawn that can take the place of tin.

Hope that helps explains what you are seeing. No, you are not doing anything wrong, you are seeing things as intended.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk
