Cartographer replacement(s)
 

I just found out Cartographer is dead, so I need a replacement or replacements since Cartographer had so many different features. Any suggestions?

Mapster + HandyNotes + TomTom.

HandyNotes also has various plugins available.

In addition to what Torhal said, Cromulent is great for adding the zone info that Cartographer did.

Others to consider are AlphaMap or Atlas

Yeah, it all depends on what Cartographer features/plugins you actually used.

Please tell me i just switched to a dead mod. This was and is SOOOO much better than alpha map. All the others hav so little you need extra mods.
:eek::mad::(

Where did you hear this? I can't find it anywhere... not even the primary Cartographer project site.

Cartographer isn't dead... I'm a subscriber to the full featured version and there was just an update like a day or two ago. What makes you think it died?

Carthographer3 isnt supported, BUT carthgrapher2 is updated .
I think thats the case :)

Does he mean Cartographer 3? if so, is it dead? I just looked into it, but as it is now, I think I am happy with Carbonite enough to avoid the trouble of trying to get old C3 files to work.

I think you are confusing Cartographer and Carbonite.

Cartographer 2.4 is awesome. No problems with it at all.
Still supported and updated...
Updated = 1 Mar 2009
Version = r2305

You forgot to add GatherMate to that list :P

That thread actually gave me some replacement suggestions, but since I just started posting here (actually joined.. quite a while ago :P) I thought I'd make a thread of my own.

I thought maybe that Cartographer2 was just not being updated here so I went to check on its status on Wowace..

Thanks, though. I'm using the Mapster + HandyNotes + tomtom combo. I only wish they were all uploaded on this website so I don't have to 'shop around'.

I forgot there was a Cartographer gathering plugin, or I would have. Hell, I forgot to add Cromulent :)

Cartographer2 is, for all intents and purposes, dead. It's being held together with band-aids, mostly by Arrowmaster - who is himself fond of saying that Cart2 is dead. The biggest reason why is because it uses the Rock framework, which ckknight no longer maintains.

Cartographer has a subscription system .. since when?? I know it's been a year or so since I last used it just didn't know they did that.

Or did you mean that CARBONITE was updated cause THAT is a subscription based addon and was updated a few days ago.

Either way I switched to the FUll paid version of carbonite and love it .. great addon.

I second the suggestion of Mapster + TomTom

3rd for Mapster/TomTom/Gathermate.

Carbonite is pretty and sparkly, but the "beta" (read: free and constantly buggy) version gets updated pretty much only when there's enough whining for it. If you're willing to pay for a time-based subscription for a mod, then go for Carbonite.

If you're wallet's already hurting, then use the suggested alternatives.
