The mini-map icons for herbalism still are not staying in the same place on the minimap when I start running around. This is true both with and without simpleMiniMap active. The pink circles to denote locations also are moving as if attached to the character arrow.
Also, the icons show a black background, instead of a transparent one. For cosmetic reasons, the black background shouldn't show.
I can't think of anything else to help with solving this problem. If you need anything else to help, let me know, and I'll do my best to provide it.
latest version (Cartographer-r21244.zip) - right click to zoom out does not work in EPL. Works pretty much everywhere else Ive tried (IF, WPL, etc),just not in this zone. Im not sure if it has something to do with the fact that its a world pvp zone or something (need to test out Silithus as well).
Update: right click zoom out doesnt work if the battle map is up. It was non functional in WPL as well (after leaving EPL) until I closed the battlemap.
Up on the SVN and Zip files archive is Cartographer_Import. Notes say it is for Gatherer data in Cartographer. Is this working yet? Any specific commands to use for the import? I would love to import data but have been a little gunshy with the scripts that are posted earlier.
When I run the loot-module of cartographer (show the loots from the bosses) and I try to outfit my char with the selected item, the Window with your char is always behind the map and not in front of it.
Is it possible to place this window infront of the map if I CTRL + Click items from cartographer?
I tried Cartographer_Import, however, it fails to import Gatherer resource node data. At startup it displayes a short startup message, something like: importing notes completed, but it does nothing.
A short readme.txt included with the addon would be welcome.
Is there any way to change the icons used on the map for mining?
Kinda would like to change the rich thorium vein to the same "crystal" icon that other addons use so that it is visually different from the small thorium veins, and if its possible to make transparant icons (without that black boxlike border).
Also one thing that im missing from Atlas is a list of the Tier sets for each class and the PvP rewards. Would love to see those as an optional database.
I toyed with Cartographer_Import last night and figured out how to make it work....only it didn't work that great for me. I changed the Gatherer TOC # to 20000 so that the GatherItem variable would at least be created in-game. That allowed the Import addon to convert a lot of the POIs, but it saved them as POIs and not under the individual Herbalism/Mining addons.
After fixing my Cartographer.lua file, I simply used the Perl script posted earlier and it worked like a charm. I merged the data from gather.reet.org into my Gatherer.lua file priot to running the script, and viola!

what did u fix in the Cartographer.lua file?
this is exactly what i want to do also. could u post a step-by-step guide? :)
edit: i tried to run the script but somehow it doesn;t pass form the first if. maybe the gatherer file i generated from http://gather.reet.org. with that .NET app is not the proper format :/

Just a sidenote about the 'icons chasing you' I find that it only seems to happen if you don't open the map first, it seems to go away, at least for me, after I open the map, they snap back to where they belong and stay there.
it;s a little trickyer than expected. the problem is: that .NET app does not generate the proper syntax for the gatherer.lua file. u need the old version of gatherer(http://gathereraddon.com/dl/Gatherer/gatherer-2.2.3.1.zip) to "reparse" it.
so..step-by-step guide to get all herba/mining nodes in cartographer (from zero):
1. go to http://gathereraddon.com/dl/Gatherer/gatherer-2.2.3.1.zip and download the old gatherer version
2. change toc version to 20000
3. donwload the tsv files from http://gather.reet.org
4. download and install that .NET application mentioned there
5. download and install the Perl runtime mentioned there
6. enter wow with the gatherer addon enabled and the exit
7. run the .NET app, select the \WTF\Account\XXX\\SavedVariables\Gatherer.lua file (that just appeared there)
8. import the tsv files with the .NET app into the Gatherer.lua
9. enter WoW and exit (this will reformat the Gatherer.lua to the proper syntax)
10. download the perl script from http://www.exiledguild.us/zj/converter/convert.pl.txt
11. copy Gatherer.lua to where u downloaded the pl file (renamed)
12. run the perl script (this should generate the "Cartographer_Mining.lua" and "Cartographer_Herbalism.lua" files
13. copy them both into the SavedVariables folder
Thanks a lot for fixing Cartographer_Mining to work with the German client. Additionally, the notes are now appearing at the correct places and are not following the player arrow on the minimap anymore. Fine! But, erm, does Cartographer intentionally display map notes _outside_ the minimap frame, or is it a bug? I'm using a revision around 21388 or so, and the area where the icons appear is about twice the diameter of the minimap. Could someone please have a look into this? Ah, and if the pink circle could please get a thinner outline (or could, even better, be made configurable), I would be grateful, too. This bright pink does indeed make the yellow spots nearly invisible (at least on _my_ screen).

i can't edit the targa files on this comp but its the one that gatherer uses... gonna try to cinvert the targa once i get to my own omp.

It makes me sad that I don't understand half of that. :)
hehe. I really am a newbie about some things. Thank you for sharing but I can't figure it out! I hope someone can either post a finished version or make it simpler somehow.

this addon looks like it;s meant to import nodes from gatherer. no "how to" documentation for it :/
my question/plea: i was using ct_mapmod for the mining/herba nodes. it there a way to import the data from ct_mapmod into cartographer?
The last change to
is not working for me. Please use the encoded version from above. :)
Is it possible to place this window infront of the map if I CTRL + Click items from cartographer?
Greetings
Timo
p.s. great addon btw. (I used metamap before)
A short readme.txt included with the addon would be welcome.

I also added new Icons to Cartographer_Mining. You will like them :)
