GatherMate2
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.
If you are looking for a pre-filled database for GatherMate2, get GatherMate2_Data here:
https://www.curseforge.com/wow/addons/gathermate2_data
When fishing in a pool that isn't in the database yet, the pool does not get added to the database and does not show up on minimap or map. Not sure if I'm missing something in my settings. Herbs do get added to the database.
how do you get this app to work with TWW any other expansion it is working, i tired deleting the app and reinstalling it still does not show any nodes
Since herb and mine nodes spawn with so many affixes the database is getting very large and laggy. Can it be made not to record affixes in the addon? For every crystalized/withered/ez-mine bismuth, just make it busmuth since they share the same spawns. Maybe convert every affix node detected to a regular node when writing to the lua file, so duplicates can be deleted and not bloat the database. I know its easier said than done.
Any shot of adding the Disturbed Earth for the gobs of wax?
I've put together an update for GatherMate2_Data that contains updates and data for The War Within if folks would like to use it until the author can provide updates.

In reply to Spiritwlf: Dear Spiritwlf (marthammor)!
It has been 3 weeks since you've released the initial Data for Gathermate2. However since then, I think more nodes were discovered and uploaded to Wowhead.
I was wondering if you could create yet another Data package for the addon itself? I would truly appreciate that!
Thank you in advance.
In reply to kalitka9: I was actually thinking of putting together an update with any new data. I know I've added a bunch of fishing nodes and have come across some mining/herb nodes that weren't recorded yet so I'm fairly sure WoWHead has some newer data. I've been fairly busy with work, but I'll see if I can carve out some time to put an update together soon.
In reply to Spiritwlf: sorry to say but for the characters in which GatherMate2 does not work - this did not resolve my issue. But GatherMate2 does work with my other character
In reply to wolfrider309: It doesn't work at all, or doesn't work in some areas? I've completed all of the campaign quests and haven't noticed any issues.
Well, finally figure out why GatherMate2 works on some of my characters and not others. The problem happens after completing the campaign quest line in Dornogal (version 11.0). After completing – GatherMate2 does not work but does if you do not complete that quest. Hope that this will assist the creator(s) to fix this issue. (the war within)
Thanks for your time and consideration
I cannot get anything ( that i haven't gathered my self) to show up for the war within ? the Gathermate 2 Data has not been updated? is this a dead addon because without the data on where nodes are Before i find them this addon is basically useless.
Update GatherMate2_Data?
Hoping for some help. For some reason today on 1 of my toons, no mining nodes are showing. On my others they do. I haven't changed any settings and it happens on both my pc and laptop. All the settings seem the same. Any ideas please?
Для тех кто играет на русском клиенте. Изза того что в файлах локализации с английского на русский язык не прописаны названия многих руд и трав из нового дополнения, игра не может поставить метку на собранную руду. Не знаю почему уже прошло пол года с выхода вар визин, а разработчики не могут локализировать свой аддон
For those who play on the Russian client. Due to the fact that the names of many ores and herbs from the new add-on are not written in the English-to-Russian localization files, the game cannot put a mark on the collected ore. I don't know why half a year has already passed since the release of War Visin, and the developers cannot localize their add-on
Still not woking in expansion.
Not even importing Data can show nodes on minimap.
The problem only occurs in pt-br version of the game
Addon works in war within but I guess there are no specific icons for minimap yet? they all show up as the same one
In reply to swiftpwns: how did you get it to work, mine wont import any data in TWW
In reply to TastyDactyl:
They didn't say anything about importing. The addon works in that it displays nodes that you discover by gathering them.
Tracking minerals doesn't work for expansion. Tried multiple times reinstalling and clearing database of mining nodes. Made sure all tracking options are checked for mining. So far only my fishing nodes are tracking.
GatherMate 2 Options Doesn't work, I can't put track only when I track herbs or minerals or excavation.
