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.

I also cannot see a red database tab...S@thi, how did you fix this? ive installed the add-on correctly with no subfolders in the gathererdb folder. When i click on addons at character creation, i see all of my addons besides gatheredb. The file path i have it in looks like this:
C:\worldofwarcraft\interface\addons\gathererdb\< files >


I also tried just extracting the bare files straight to the addons folder and it didnt show as well. like this:

C:\worldofwarcraft\interface\addons\< files >


What am i doing wrong?

Updates forthcoming?

It's been quite a while now since the data base went out of date, is there any information regarding when it may be made current again?

Also, while it was working I noticed that occasionally it would seem as if the game stopped recognizing the data base had been installed and synced. Has anyone else experienced similar?

Needs an update for 5.2

There are so many nodes from chests, herbs and mining that I have found that are not in the Database from last October that I have found. An update is much needed, I've been using the WoWhead client for years so everything I find is contributed to the WoWhead server.

Also I was showing my brother this addon and even though we have it all set up to load out dated addons, there is no import button within the Gatherer menu like I have in my game. Possible bug or am I doing something wrong? I'm not new to this addon so I am not sure. The HUD and Slidebar are activated and running.

I hope this didn't get abandoned, it used to be updated quite frequently till MoP.

Hear hear hear!
This is the same story I just wanted to post!
Discovering new nodes every day still, both in classic zones as well as the new zones.

Hope there will be a new database update soon, since for instance I got my GF to play finally.

My apologies for the lack of updates. My intention going forward is to update more regularly. I'm thinking at least once a month, but no promises.

There will definitely not be another eight month void.

NEED HELP!

Can anyone assist me with installing this addon? I cannot locate the database tab and cannot find the import button needed for this.

I've copied over the 3 files that were in this folder into the C:\Program Files (x86)\World of Warcraft\Interface\AddOns\Gatherer folder..

Please help?

That's because you've copied them into wrong folder.
GathererDB is an ADDON. On it's own. Install it as such.
That aside, move your WoW installation outside Program Files. Save your head.
