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.

If you are looking for a pre-filled database for GatherMate2, get GatherMate2_Data here:

Any chance of adding the various raptor nests to the list of 'treasure'? Would be very handy now that the pets drop from the nests, not the rares.

Thanks.

Is there any chance of adding the raptor nests (that you 'open' to get companion pets) to the list of 'treasure' nodes? This would be very handy.

I tried registering at WoWAce but could not do so (some sort of 'bad request' error).

Thanks.

Thanks for a fantastic add-on. I know there is a way to bind a key to toggle GatherMate2's display in the minimap. Is there any way to the same for the worldmap? Also, are there any slash-commands to do these functions so I can include them in macros? If not, could you please consider adding them? Thank you.

I have a question about this. It's a simple question. When I'm mining I use GatherMate2, GatherMate2 Date, and Routes. This works very well and creates the routes I need. However, when it builds the nodes and the paths there are many that aren't actually accurate. IE: 200 Copper Veins but in reality there only ends up being like 70. So I have to go through and edit the map and it's a pain. My question is, do you think that those veins are inaccurately placed by the makers of gathermate? Or if the veins are in fact there, but have been previously mined by someone else recently and haven't respawned yet? How long do minerals take to respawn?

Thanks maybe it wasn't as simple of a question. Any feedback/answers would be greatly appreciated!

It shows all POSSIBLE node locations based on the dataset you are working with.

The only way you can know if a node is spawned or not is by getting within that 80 yard range or whatever it is and then the server will tell you if it's there or not.

Assuming a node is invalid because you have not seen it spawn yet does not mean the nodes does not exist. Chances are some nodes you may never see spawn.

This is not entirely accurate but it gives you a general idea of how it works. As it works a group of nodes are tied together and only like 1 out of that group can spawn at a time. when the timer resets another random node from that group will spawn.

Isn't it possible to enter a preset for routes? could save you alot of time especially since you dont understand how nodes work. This will guarantee you an increase in production when farming nodes.

GM2 1.15.2 I still get the lipmapdata error when i enter the firelands. spams 4 lines of text at about 5 second intervals.

Disabling the addon turns off the spam.

Morning, It's been a while since I've extracted motes of air from Nagrand. Mid July I believe. And when I did I guess I posted the problem at the wrong half of the GatherMate program. Anyway, when extracting the motes of air GM2 had been leaving behind the windy cloud icons at the place of extraction, when all of sudden on that day in mid July it began to leave behind steam cloud icons. Now, it's not a big deal but my map is covered with the windy cloud icons and it is now making a very uneven look, just thought to let you know, and also that it isn't leaving any icons behind now in Zangarmarsh. (water vapor) Thanks for your time.

Is anyone using his engineer with zapthrotle to collect gas clouds in Zangarmarsh and they don't get recorded? But when I go to Nagrand to get the Windy Clouds for the air motes they do get recorded. I still haven't checked other clouds in other places of Outlands. This is after the Firelands "LibMapData 1.0 is missing" spam-eliminating patch.

Since the auther decided to change the addon name from GatherMate to GatherMate2, the nodes outlines no longer show up on the HUD map without a coding modification.

This code change is posted by Impurator at this link http://www.wowace.com/addons/sexymap/tickets/99-sexymap-and-gathermate2/

Can the authur implement a change so that a call to GatherMate:GetModule("Display") has a depricated function to actually call GatherMate2:GetModule("Display") to make this addon backward compatible since the name has changed.

Thx

This doesn't affect my post below as I'm using the exact same add-ons on two accounts with one showing active nodes and the other doesn't. It might be a conflict but I'm not sure what that could be as I have the same add-ons on both accounts. In fact, I renamed the Interface folder from the account that doesn't work and copied the Interface folder from the one that does work with no success. I deleted the Cache folder with no success. The active nodes will simply not show. This is getting frustrating as it's a great add-on which I have used from most of my WOW gaming. :(

FYI, Nodeflash also doesn't show the active nodes. I don't know if that gives any insight since I have copied the working Interface folder to the 'non-working' WOW folder.

I have two accounts, running the exact same addons including GatherMate2, GatherMate2_Data and GatherMate_Sharing, all updated versions as downloaded from Curse. I logged into two toons on separate accounts, both with Mining and Herbalism professions as well as one is Horde and the other is Alliance. I had both at the same coordinates in Arathi Highlands within range of an active Mine and active Herb node since I can physically see the Mine and Herb. One shows it as active and the other shows it as inactive.

On the account not showing the active nodes, I uninstalled all GatherMate addons and reinstalled via Curse. No luck. I physically removed the GatherMate folders from the Interface/Addons folder, downloaded and install the GatherMate addons physically. No luck. I physically removed the GatherMate folders and then copied the GatherMate folders from the 'working' accounts Interface / Addons folder. No luck.

Remember, I have compared both accounts and ensured they were running the exact same addons on both toons with one exception. The alliance is running Spellflash - Druid and the horde is running Spellflash - Rogue which should NOT be an issue.

Any suggestions?

There's an update - 1.15 posted. Have to manually push it via website for today. Looks like the date is set for 7/1, so it would be on the curse client tomorrow.
