DataBase Update: 

Cartographer_QuestObjectives.lua: This is a huge database of quests before patch 2.4 
its a must download. You lose your sunfury quest obj icons but this file contains 
68000+ locations for quest objectives and will let you power level like never 
before!

Cartographer_Quests.lua: Contains data on the locations of 2300+ quest givers. If  
you install it then you will loose data on any quest you already completed so it 
will look like that quest is again available. You can always right click the note 
and set it to done.

Inflight.lua: Horde Only. I just included it because it fixxes the glitched location 
of the flight point in Ratchet. (I think bliz moved the NPC slightly?)

Common questions and answers

Q: What is the difference in versions?
A: Adv takes less ram. Its harder to set up and take ‘/gathermate’ and  ‘/routes’ 
to access those menus. A few more options and easier route setup. 
(gathermate database available, next page of down load file list) 
A: Org is the full version of the original cartographer, easy menu access but 
more ram. Slightly less options.

Q: I’m getting error … What do I do?
A: Install update or Update the dependency files via http://files.wowace.com/

Q: How do I see the mining icons?
A: Turn your tracking on or enable it via the professions menu.
A: If you are using ‘adv’ version type ‘/gathermate’.

Q: Cartographer doesn’t work at all. What’s up?
A: Disable all other addons and try loading up using only cartographer and its 
modules if this works   then one you your addons is causing a problem with 
cartographer. See install page for known issues.

Q: Why do you include the dependency files when they are already in the 
module folders?
A: I get less error message spam.

Q: What do i do with the Tools and DB files?
A: The .luas are variable saves for the addon of the same name. Ergo, the 
GatherMate.lua is a GatherMate database. These Files go in your 
/wow/wtf/account/[accountname]/savedvariables folder.

    Mining and Herbalism weren't showing up, so I downloaded them manually, but they still weren't displaying. Then I saw above that I have to type /gathermate (brilliant), but it's still not displaying the icons.

    Edit: Nevermind, it's working, but apparently the database is empty... I'm used to it being filled in.

  • June 28, 2008, 03:07PM (6 days, 19 hours ago)

    Ok I cannot see the mining tins with this mod. I have it to where it should show but it doesn't at all. Is there anything I can do to fix that?

  • June 25, 2008, 05:45PM (1 week, 2 days ago)

    This is a great addon, however I did find a small, but correctable problem. When I loaded Cartographer anytime I changed the size of the map in the Look n' Feel part of the configuration and I closed the map it would default back to the original size. Also the improved error frame would always give me an error siting line 465. It said that 'this' was a nil value. I changed it to 'self' and that fixed the problem. However a new error arose. Improved error frame told me it was line 470 & 471 where the SetWidth and SetHeight is defined. I simply took that out and the error went away.

    Now, I'm not sure if my corrections are correct or will cause any unforeseen problems down the line, but it seems to work and I no longer have any errors. I hope this helps. Otherwise wonderful addon, much more stable than MetaMap

    Great Addon, I had a few problems with the mouse over feature over the world map but fixed it quickly by disabling it. I would however, like to see map coords outside the map, with the option to shift click them to make it echo into a chat channel with the location (coords).

  • June 24, 2008, 12:48PM (1 week, 3 days ago)

    I would be very pleased, if You add a feature to choose another icons for map notes, for example, just an accurate arrow... Because it's silly to see your world map in loads of bright purple diamonds or stupid skulls!

  • June 22, 2008, 10:01AM (1 week, 6 days ago)

    When i create a waypoint, the red arrow shows the distance in yards instead of meters. Is there any way to change this so i can see the distance in meters? I could not find this in the configuration settings.

  • June 19, 2008, 08:23PM (2 weeks, 1 day ago)

    I'm a little confused about Guild Positions. I had a member in the guild who was using cartogrpaher but I could not see him on the map - although I know this feature does work - as I was able to see my husbands character using it.

    Does the guild position work while you are in a party - as I'd love to see my party member as well as any quild members whom are not in the party.

  • June 19, 2008, 02:58AM (2 weeks, 2 days ago)

    Does anyone know how to turn on flight point icons in the map?

  • June 15, 2008, 11:52AM (2 weeks, 5 days ago)

    How do I get the Cartographer_Quests.lua? Or is it required with this mod? I seemed to get the herb/mining to work.. but not the quest givers. It records the quests I start, but I thought it came with a database with quest givers already in place?

  • June 13, 2008, 09:53AM (3 weeks, 1 day ago)

    When I create a route it tells me there is no data found for Cartographer, can you provide a link for the cartographer professions database. Also, I've created a route so far in Netherstorm and Arathi Highlands, on both maps there are MANY nodes shown in either unreachable areas or in the middle of ocean/abyss.

    I have used this mod in the past and would love to continue using it but I have a major problem.

    I can't zoom in or out of the map using the left and right buttons.

    Clicking with the left button is like the map isn't even up, I just click through it (at things I can't see because the map is covering them.

    I have tried removing everything and reinstalling. No idea what causees this.

  • June 11, 2008, 11:36PM (3 weeks, 2 days ago)

    Awsome Mod. This with QuestHelper will make leveing a bit easier. Not only that my herbalsit and miner will hve an easier time harvesting with the waypoint system. Well done!

  • June 9, 2008, 07:35PM (3 weeks, 4 days ago)

    Ok, I've installed the Cartographer Complete v4.6 org and have deleted all the old files I no longer needed. I walked out of Undercity and this big circle with an "N" on one edge appeared. Looks like a giant compass circle around my toon.......now how the heck do I get rid of it?

  • June 4, 2008, 12:45AM (1 month ago)

    Installs via the curse client are leaving out a lot of important folders, such as:
    Babble 2.2, libBabble_Creatures_3.0, libBabble_Inventory_3.0, and a few others. Even after fixing the problem by downloading the zip and doing it manually, I still get an error on startup:
    NotePoint.lua:61: bad argument #1 to 'format' (string expected, got nil)
    I'm not sure why that function is getting a nil for the variable 'zone' but it is. Any help would be appreciated.

  • June 3, 2008, 02:02AM (1 month ago)

    hey, i can't get it to track herbs, mining works 100%, i have clicked always show in /gathermate’, but theres not even an Herbalism secion in cartographer options, there is one in mining though. sorry if i make no sense :P great add-on btw

    EDIT: fixed by importing from /gathermate’. Thanks for this wonderful add-on!

  • June 3, 2008, 01:11AM (1 month ago)

    Has anyone figured out how to make the flight points come back on themap? I noticed a comment about this from another person but no answer was given. Please help.

  • June 1, 2008, 11:41PM (1 month ago)

    dude I cant see ore on the map !!

  • May 30, 2008, 08:13AM (1 month ago)

    make sure they are enabled and that you have 'load out of date addons' checked.

  • May 30, 2008, 02:36AM (1 month ago)

    Sorry to ask something so stupid... just downloaded version v2.6 adv and v2.6 org from curse's mirrorsite but i really cannot find any databases or merging tools in the rar files in contrast to the statement:

    "Also, Both the adv and the org versions of my cartographer mirror site have full DBs of all gathering nodes for the game. Org is automatic setup. Adv you need the DB i've supplied above."

    Am i missing something here? Thanks in advance.

  • May 30, 2008, 08:07AM (1 month ago)

    i dont think they uploaded properly or something.
