GathererDB WoWHead  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 2.0.2013-06-15
by: Esamynn, dinesh, MentalPower, Nechckn, Norganna, norganna_uploader


WoWInterface is happy to announce that we have teamed up with Wowhead and the Norganna's AddOns Gatherer team to provide you with an exclusive downloadable Wowhead database for display in-game by Gatherer.

This addon will provide you with all the information currently in the Wowhead database showing all known locations of herbs, minerals and treasures. Now you can simply load up Gatherer, plug this database into it, and know what can be found in the zone you are in, without having to discover them yourself.

Wowhead will be providing regular dumps of their database to the Norganna team, who will then update the GathererDB Wowhead addon exclusively here on WoWInterface.


How it works
The import procedure is simple and painless. Once you have installed the AddOn and have reloaded the game, ensuring that both Gatherer and GathererDB_Wowhead are activated. When you finally log into the game, follow this procedure to import the new data into Gatherer:

  • Open Gatherer's configuration dialog.
  • Click on the red "Database" tab on the left-hand side of the dialog.
  • Click the import button in the main panel.

Make sure to add GathererDB-Wowhead to your favourites list here on WoWInterface and check back periodically to see if it's been updated, or get an email sent to you whenever they update it if you have those notifications turned on. Any time they update it, just re-download GathererDB-Wowhead and update your local copy.


Help improve the database
If you want to contribute your data back to Wowhead to continue expanding the database, please download and install the Wowhead client (available for both PC and Mac) and just follow the instructions on their site.


About Gatherer
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 the minimap.

When you view your World Map, you will also see the item locations clearly marked on each zone's map.


About Wowhead
Wowhead was created with one sole intent: to provide World of Warcraft players with an extensive database and tools to enhance their gaming experience. This website is our contribution to this wonderful game.

Our user community is a big part, if not the biggest part, of Wowhead. Almost all of our information comes from our users, through data uploads from the Wowhead Client, comments on database entries and screenshot submissions! The site also features forums, where users can ask questions, discuss important Warcraft-related topics, recommend and share favorite addons, and much more!

Updated to support Gatherer 4.0.4.

19 DEC 2010 Updated the node list and have included what data is available for the gigantic changes seen in WoW 4.x.

09 DEC 2009 Updated to the most recent set of nodes and updated TOC for WoW 3.3

18 FEB 2009 Updated to the latest nodes, including those recently renamed in 3.0.8.

29 DEC 2008 Corrected some inconsistencies between GathererDB and Gatherer. Included more node locations.

05 DEC 2008 Corrected issues in the script pertaining to Icecrown, node IDs, and a few more nodes included in the DB.

04 DEC 2008 Corrected Icecrown naming, items should now appear in that zone.

03 DEC 2008a The correct, expanded DB file and other changes.

03 DEC 2008 Added yet more Northrend and other WotLK node locations, formatting of file, et cetera.

Also, remember that you are downloading files from unknown sources, so be certain that your Antivirus/Phishing software is up to date- until the issue is worked out with the "official" version, a post for a file is fine, but any other questions/commentary should be taken elsewhere.

We do plan to have the DB updated, once we get some further data, and have the time to update it - likely the first week of January.
Actually this is being a bit much of a control freak about the comments. Here's why.

1) This "database" is completely broken. There are large amounts of missing data in it. I've gone through the file and found nothing for the Cataclysm zones.

2) Importing this database is messing up our existing database. So many unknowing users are downloading this and screwing things up worse. I'm not even sure why this file would still be available for download.

3) The file posted a few comments before mine, if it's still downloadable, works great. You just copy it in and as an herbalist/miner, I can say that this appears to be a complete database based on the numerous zones I've visited. That file is all anyone needs.

4) Stop trying to control the conversation. If you want people to respect you, don't tell them what they can and can't talk about. Other people stepping up to help while this mod is currently clearly broken doesn't hurt anyone.

Hello,

As I have seen so many people having problems importing Wowhead database, I have uploaded my own import of Wowhead database, full with all nodes registered by the Wowhead (to date 25.12.2010).

Download:
https://rapidshare.com/files/439173738/Gatherer.lua
It's on my own paid Rapidshare Account, so it wont dissapear and is small enough (5 MB) that it wont trigger your waiting que for next file, you just have to wait about one minute before download.

Instalation:
1) Download file Gatherer.lua from https://rapidshare.com/files/439173738/Gatherer.lua
2) Open C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft\WTF\Account\YOUR ACCOUNT NAME\SavedVariables and copy new file Gatherer.lua there. Click accept to overwrite the file.
3) Profit!

I hope you all enjoy this, may it help you solve your problems with Wowhead database. Also remember that Gatherer will have MY settings, so you may change your profile.

For the Horde!

I just wanted to clarify (for the next person to try this link) that you don't have to buy "rapidshare credits" or whatever to download the file. However, you do have to create an account.

Could someone please post a good /WTF/Account/######/SavedVariables/Gatherer.LUA file?

I tried doing an 'import' from a fresh build and it didn't come with ANY nodes for Elementium, for example.

Or, perhaps someone could update the main GatherDB_Wowhead page to indicate exactly what is included in the DB and what is not included...because, right now it is very vague and it's impossible to tell whether things are "not working" or whether they're just "not added yet".

Folks,

Kindly bear with us as we try to get things a bit sorted, there seems to be some disconnect between what is requested, what comes in, and then what is included - so it will be a few days. No access to the game nor much of any time until about the middle of next week, so do not expect much before then.

Still no idea what to tell those who cannot get "any" data, unless you are expecting thousands of points, when there are currently much, much less. For instance, see Netherstorm and Norhtern STV and see if any data is there with GathererDB_Wowhead as the source. Kindly only let us know if that is the case.

Please keep in mind that this is supposed to be fun, after all. Keep grabbing your own points and running the Wowhead Client and we can get things sorted, eventually- and take some time out of WoW to spend with Family and Friends!

Hope that everyone has a great holiday, whether you celebrate it or not, and wish everyone Peace and Posterity in the coming year.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk (and the rest of the team at Norganna's AddOns)
There is definitely large chunks of data missing. For example:
http://www.wowhead.com/object=202737 (make sure viewing map for Twilight Highlands)

See all those nodes on the map? Now look at what got imported for Twilight Highlands - not even close.

Import not working

It appears the import isn't working as I don't see any nodes at all. The import bar moves up to about 90% and then stops leaving only my own nodes with nothing new.

I did this, but it appears that Hyjal is still broken/unrepresented.

90% for me too

I try importing, it seems to stop at 90.x % - and I see nothing for Hyjal. If I do a search for CATA nodes in the search thingy, it finds nothing using "elementium" or "obsidium".

Agree - skilling herbalism seems a nightmare there!
pls fix Hyjal!
