GathererDB WoWHead

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.

The data in Gatherer and the data on Wowhead vary greatly, particularly for Frozen Herbs. All the mining nodes seem to be intact, and the rest of Northrend looks complete, it's just Dragonblight Herbalism.

Re: Dragonblight

Garylisk,

The data was the 'latest' when the database was created.

That said, there will not be another update until after Cataclysm launches and a reasonable amount of time passes to allow for all of the new/reloacted node locations. Our first priority is our other project, Auctioneer, its submodules, the rest of the Auctioneer Suite, Gatherer itself, and then the database. There is a fairly large amount of work to do, so no ETA on when to expect any of the bits, we hope to have all of the other AddOns set for launch day, but there are surely no guarantees.

The best thing to do, for now, would be to have a friend or clanmate send you the node locations via the built in sharing feature. See the FAQ for details, http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Gatherer/FAQ .

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

Re: Broken add-on

Stephey, et al,

The next version of the GathererDB_Wowhead will be posted after WoW 4.x/Cataclysm, since all node locations remain the same as in 3.x. If you imported in the past, all of that data is still in the Gatherer database and will show on the mini/main map when you move toward the nodes.

We hope to have the database during the first week, or so, of Cataclysm going live.

To that end, please be sure to run the Wowhead updater, available for MS Windows and OSX via http://www.wowhead.com/?client . The more data that comes in for Cataclysm, the faster it can be aggregated and supplied to us by Wowhead, coded into the AddOn, tested, and made available for everyone to use.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

The nodes are NOT in our database, despite having imported them "in the past", before this latest patch. We CANNOT re-import them - because Gatherer gets to 99.9%, and then bugs out. IT'S BROKEN. We CANNOT ask a friend for their nodes, because NOBODY HAS THEM - everyone lost their nodes with this latest patch! I'm sure the node locations are the same as they were before this patch - but nobody can use the database. I totally understand that Auctioneer is a huge project, and appreciate the time you're putting into this - but please acknowledge the problem with the current version of the database. If you can't/won't fix it before Cataclysm, then ok I guess, but you're trying to say that there isn't a problem here - and there most definitely is. Once the Auctioneer problem is tackled - please look at fixing this. We still have over a month, and there's lots of gold to be made. Thanks!

Re: Missing the point

Beebolini,

It is nice that you understand the other priorities, and that we all have lives in addition to putting out free software for folks to use but you are confusing two different AddOns.

There is a simple display issue in Gatherer 3.1.15, should be corrected to "show" the data in 3.1.16. The data, unless erased by some other method, is still there, and can be seen if you enter some relevant text in the Gatherer report UI search. That is the little box at the top of the report window, since folks sometimes do not realize it is there.

Of course you cannot import from GathererDB, but others can enter a term like Arathi- select all, and send them to you via the Gatherer sharing mechanism, covered on our main FAQ at http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Gatherer/FAQ .

The issue with the HUD not showing six nodes in Northrend, that were left out of 3.1.14/3.1.15 is fixed, is undergoing final testing, and will be included in Gatherer 3.1.16.

As noted, GathererDB_Wowhead, this AddOn, will not be updated until after the nodes move in just about two months.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

You say that "others" can select nodes from their database and share those nodes. Can you point me to one of the "others"? since the patch none of my friends have functioning databases to select noded from.

Thanks

Re: Re: Re: Missing the point

Stephey,

Yes, you are correct that the GathererDB_Wowhead AddOn will not be updated until December and should not be expected to work until then. Of course, if we have the time and volunteer manpower, we may put out an interim patch, but that is doubtful until after the nodes shift. We do plan to update this, but there is little reason and manpower is thin.

The Gatherer AddOn, itself, will have another update to 3.1.16 in the next few days to address some display issues that it has with WoW 4.x- but should be quite useable, even now. Already, a number of issues from 3.1.14 have been addressed, including the "ping" feature working and tooltips showing on the main map. (Yay!)

There were six nodes inadvertently left out of the HUD, but, the data is still being collected - and the locations/gathers are still visible on the minimap and main map. The other issue is that the database/report view will not show node data until a search is entered in the text box at the top of the window- but the data should all still be present unless some other issue caused it to disappear, over which we have no control.

Happy Gatherering,

Nikk

Re: Re: Re: Missing the point

GreenMan99,

Open up your Gatherer report UI and enter some text, like Arathi or Iron into the search bar at the top of the Gatherer report/database view. You should then see the data that is in the local database; there was nothing in the update that would have removed any of the previously-saved data.

If folks lost their data due to a failed patch, system crash, et cetera, then Guildmates or even folks from trade can either send them their Gatherer.lua file (only accept from more trusted sources) or enter some search text, highlight the node data, and then send the nodes to the person in need. For exact procedures/details, see the FAQ on our main site at http://Wiki.Norganna.Org/Gatherer/FAQ .

The main thing here is to realize that the GathererDB_Wowhead and Gatherer are two separate AddOns. Gatherere 3.1.16, which should be out quite soon will address the HUD issue for some Northrend items and the default, no text entered view, in the report UI.

Until December, though, folks can simply disable or remove the GathererDB_Wowhead; there should be no other errors on startup. As noted in the reply, above, we *may* have time to get a patch out for the old database, but with the node shift and all, that is a very, very low priority. Our volunteers have their collective hands full with other matters, so we do not recommend anyone holding their breath and waiting until about a week after Cataclysm officially launches. (But only if they have really, really big lungs.)

Happy Sales,

Nikk

DONNYBBAD2001 A Kobold Labourer Forum posts: 0 File comments: 1 Uploads: 0	The Database Problem I'm not sure if this is helpful or not but I opened DB_WowheadMain.lua and looked for a "then" statement that didn't have anything associated with it since the error I recieve notes a "then" = nil problem. I think it said line 104 but I also saw something about line 106. In any event, when I opened it in notepad I saw that the third to last if...then statement had nothing after the "then". It was followed by another "if". Here is the line: if locale == "enUS" then if not Gatherer.Nodes.Names[nodeName] then Gatherer.Nodes.Names[nodeName] = nodeId end if not Gatherer.Categories.CategoryNames[nodeId] then Gatherer.Categories.CategoryNames[nodeId] = nodeName end end end the "if locale =="enUS" then" line seems to need a then attached. OR I could just be totally wrong. I'm not a programmer or anything like that it's just that all the other entries have a "then [something] followed by the next "if" statement and this one doesn't. If none of this helps I apologize for wasting time. I was just hoping I could help make this easier to diagnose. Last edited by DONNYBBAD2001 : 10-18-10 at 05:04 AM.

I don't know what I would do without Auctioneer and Gatherer. If I am getting error messages from GathererDB, I haven't really noticed it. But I think what you are trying to tell everyone is that they need to disable the DB add-on until after Cata, right? It's not going to affect Gatherer and it will still store the nodes they find, correct?
