GatherMate2

Table of Contents

GatherMate2 is an addon to collect and track herbs, mines, fishing pools, gas clouds, archaelogy finds and treasures, and displays them on the world map and the mini map.

This is the Retail version of GatherMate2, the version for WoW Classic can be found here

GatherMate will remember the location of every herb you pick or every ore you mine, so that you can easily find the positions of the herbs and mines again. Once you come into range of a recorded spot, GatherMate will show an icon representing the type of herb/ore/fish/etc. on your mini map, directly allowing you to decide if its worth checking out. Additionally, all spots are shown on the World Map, to ease navigation to certain types of nodes and making gathering more fun.

To give you a head start, GatherMate2 also offers a pre-filled data module, so you don't need to discover all herbs and mines yourself, but instead can just start gathering right away. Simply install GatherMate2_Data and hit a few buttons to import all the provided data, and you're good to go.

Video about configuring this addon.

Usage

Using GatherMate2 is straight-forward.
After the installation, GatherMate2 is automatically active and collecting data.

You can configure which data should be shown on the World Map or MiniMap in the Configuration Dialog, which can be accessed either via the /gathermate slash command or be found in the Interface options in the WoW Menu.

Localization (Translation of Nodes)

GatherMate2 relies on the node names to be translated in all languages WoW supports. You can contribute additional translations for your language here using the Localization tool:
https://www.wowace.com/projects/gathermate2/localization

Any translations submitted through that tool will be automatically included in the next release.

GatherMate2_Data

GatherMate2_Data has been updated with all fresh data from Wowhead, including support for Shadowlands, and will be continously updated throughout the coming expansion.

check your map scaling, the new wow 4.0 rescales icons a lot smaller than they used to be.

Same issue as some others.
I can see nodes on minimap but not world map, disabled all aother addons, even chose options "always show" instead of "only with professions" and still nothing.

I stumbled on GatherMate2_Data purely by accident when looking at Routes. The data package is not showing up in any variety of search I tried.

Ah, I see. Ok, but perhaps the rare ore was a bad example. Icecrown is full of spawns that are both Lichbloom and Icethorn for example - not rare versions of each other, just different things completely.

We convert rare spawns to the normal version when found close by. If your pulling data in via gathermate2 data, run a cleanup and it should consolidate them

Firstly - love the addon. Together with routes, it just makes flower picking sublime :)

So, I have a suggestion.

Clearly nodes can be one of several different types of things (eg Lichbloom / Icethorn, or Saronite / Rich / Titanium / etc.), presumably randomly selected by the server.

This leads to GM storing these as seperate nodes, with practically identical co-ords, increasing storage space required, cluttering my map, and increasing processing required for addons like Routes.

Howabout we track these as a single node? A bitfield of possible types, instead of just a single type? What do you reckon?

Cheers,

go look at wowhead, you will see the above posted maps match what you see on wowhead. since the extract just pulls the coords form those maps if they are wrong there they will be wrong in game as well.

Having a strange bug with nodes. In many zones addon shows nodes OUT of the zone's border. For example - could show them far in the sea or there where should be another zone.
For example:

I have the same problem. I think this is incorrect data being entered into gathermate2_data.

hmm, it's still importing everything for me in V1.0.1. The steps I do:
- delete herb brushes under database maintenance/cleanup database
- check to see that really no herbs are on the map of some old world zone
- import "wrath of the lich king" data with "expansion data only" enabled
- recheck the old world zone, and it's full of herbs :-(

GM2 is using circa three times as much memory as with just the wotlk-data I think, not dramatic enough to stop me from loving it, but still a bug ;-)

one question. after installing this addon i do have a link with an icon on my screen - klicking on it opens the settings. (the same type of icon + link i get from the addon bigbrother) ... is there any way to hide this icon?

i noticed that after installing auctionier + sidebar the icon is also in the sidebar but the link also remains in screen.
