Hello community,

i have some problem importing notes of Gathere so i open this topic and hope for your help ;)

I have used Gatherer quite a long time now. But Cartographer is way the better programm fpr me, so i wanted to import my Gatherer notes into Cartographer. But somehow it doesn?t work. My chat says something like "Note import complete" but i don?t have any Gatherer note in my Cartogrpaher map. Could i be because off the german client i am using ?

If you need Gathere lua file i coul load it up or attach it here.

The only thing you should be needing to do as far as i know is to log in with both addons enabled at the same time and ofcourse have the latest versions of them and it should be done. then a relog and turn off gatherer and log back in.

If you dont get them by then it's most likely due to you using another language of wow.

Hello Groll,

exactly that i?ve done. And i have used the newest available versions of the addons. The problem ist, that Cartographer_Import says that it has finished importing notes, but no new notes appear in Cartographer.
And switching the language of WoW is not that kind of simple anymore. Besides that, my english is not that good that i want to use it as the default language.
Perhaps somebody can explain or show me what i heve to change in the lua file(s) to get the importing feature working.


Kind regards
Basti

Now i have reinstalled my complete WoW installation and i used the ELP (english language pack) before i have installed all the addons.
Now my complete WoW installation is on english.
But nothing changes, still i get the message that "Cartographer_Import: Finished importing notes" but no new notes appear.

So i think its a bug off one off those programms. Does anybody else also have this problems ?

You shouldn't need to have Gatherer loaded. Simply put copy these files from your WTF directory to the Cartographer_Import directory.

GatherNodes.lua
Gatherer.lua

The import program load them and process the imports.

Basti, which Gatherer version are you using?

I'm not sure if the import script is able to process the gatherer database from the latest Gatherer beta versions. At least I tried around a month ago with the latest Gatherer beta, and experienced the same: Just got "Finished importing notes", but no notes had been imported.

@sid67

Sadly your explantation does?nt work for me either.
This time i?m only getting some kind of error screen, i will post it later on.

Hello Aelfdane,

at the moment i?m using version 2.99.0.0472. Now i have seen that theres a newer version, i will try the newer version now.
But could this be the problem ? I think that the two files needed for importing allways stay the same, don?t they ?


Regards Basti


EDIT:
Now i have updated all my addons to the newest version available.
Now i get an error message : .../GathererNodes.lua35: attempt to index global "gatherer"(a nil value)

Does anybody now what that means ?

Hello Kagaro,

i?m using the latest version of gatherer since today. Before i had older versions and there importing didn?t work either. There was a message, that al was imported, but no notes had been importing to cartographer or there was an error message equal to the one i have posted above.
Is the german client supported for importing notes from gatherer to cartographer ?


Regards Basti

Ill look, it most likely wasnt supported unless gatherer always stored data in english.

Ill look into to it today

Thank you Kagaro, that would be great :)
If you need for example my gatherer.lua or somethin else let me know, i will load it up then.

Looks liek some of the german trnslations are in but not all:


["Added %s %s to %s at %.2f, %.2f from %s"] = true,

["Mineral"] = true,
["Herb"] = true,
["Treasure"] = true,
["Gatherer"] = true,
["Fishing"] = true,

Can i do something myself to get the importing feature work ?

I have the same problem, and I am using a french client.
I saw in the import.lua there is a part for spanish and korean translation but not german neither french.

I tried to add the french trasnlation part, but it seems I dont have the right "keywords"
It doesnt seem to the be tradeskills, and I am not familar enough with spanish to guess what I need to put in :(

I would think that if you added this line immediately after the spanish one, it should work fine.

L:RegisterTranslations("frFR", function() return {
	["Added %s %s to %s at %.2f, %.2f from %s"] = "A\195\177french word for to %s %s a %s french word for at %.2f, %.2f french word for from %s",

	["Mineral"] = "french word for Mineral",
	["Herb"] = "french word for Herb",
	["Treasure"] = "french word for Treasure",
	["Gatherer"] = "Gatherer",
	["Fishing"] = "french word for Fishing",
} end)

Obviously, everywhere I put "french word for" you should change.

thats what I did. But I dont know what are exactely the words carto/gatherer is using/expecting for the french language set.

The words I put in dont seem to be the right ones, cause it doesnt work
However I found in between some pre-BC carto base which I imported. Not all spots that I had for rare herbs are in, but most are, so better than nothing anyway.

Same for me, just can't get it to work! And I do play in English. My version of gatherer is v2.99.0.0448.

I copied the file Gatherer.lua from the the SavedVariables- folder in the WTF-folder.
I pasted it into the Cartographer_Import folder.
I logged in to wow with both gatherer and enabled. I get the chattext Cartographer_Import: Done importing notes. But when I turrn off Gatherer the notes disappear and I can only see the ones I have found after I got Cartographer.
