Cartographer 

Just a read me would help. Great mod just wish I had a full list of slash comands for it.
Anyone have them?

When will instance maps for Outlands be completed with all boss locations and loot tables?

I have also been having problems with the Waypoint functionality. It was working for me this past weekend but has stopped working for me since. Attempting to create a waypoint from a note I've added to the map triggers an error message (which gets captured by Bugsac) as does the Cartographer module that uses the waypoint functionality to point you to your corpse when you die.

I update all my Ace2 addons everyday to the latest versions available from the Wowace website using the Windows program (WinAceUpdater) they provide to sync my addons with the latest releases.

In the error message that Bugsac captures (sorry, I'm not at home when posting this to be able to quote the message exactly) the Noteshare plugin seems to be implicated.

It would seem that one of the updates made to Cartographer or one of its modules since the weekend has triggered this problem.... but of course I do recognise that I'm essentially using Beta versions by running from the latest versions on Wowace.

Absolutely great addon though - Cartographer and all its respective plugin modules make for a brilliant package and generous praise should go to all who work on it. I've tried most of the other 'major' world-map replacements and I've settled on Cartographer as my preferred choice. Nice clean design, rich functionality and pretty solid coding. Keep up the good work guys/gals, it's very much appreciated here.

Just as a follow-up, the latest updates from WoWAce.com (via the WinAceUpdater program I mentioned) have now fixed the waypoint issue I had experienced.

Top marks for the speedy fix guys and many thanks.

Important notice to people using Wowace "beta" versions :

The latest Cartographer_Notes ignores Herbalism, Mining, Treasure and other module notes by default. You have either to change the option in note submenu to accept all notes or install and set up Cartographer_Noteshare.

hiya, i dont know if this has been mentioned/asked before but is there a way to make minimap icons show up on arrival and not fade in from a long distance away, like they used to do?..its cluttering the minimap and as it stands its more confusing than helping
..would be nice to turn that feature on only on waypoints, or have an option to enable it per note or note category ...

Thnk u for ur time xD

Hi all,

Is there any way to send ALL the POIs (like herbs and ores locations) to a person or to the guild at the same time?

I've got over a hundred mineral nodes, and it would be a major pain to click through all of them!

Any help appreciated. Thank you!

When using Cartographer without Bugsack ( I was using in a clean Titanpanel -interface ) it produces an nil-value- error when entering Deeprun-Tram .

Not that this is a major glitch ( plan to go back to Fubar anyway , as soon as Blizzard has sorted out the 131 errors loads of folks are experiencing ) ,but I thought it prudent to inform you.

I'm sure I'm not the first to ask this but I can't find an answer.

I have an older version of Cartographer where I've placed notes in various zones.
If I upgrade to the latest version how can I carry those notes over to the newer version? Is there a file I need to copy that contains these or what?

Could anyone please explain how to use Cartographer_import ? I have very much herbalism notes in Gatherer but i want to import them so that i can use Cartographer in full kind.

1) get the latest version of cartographer_import from www.wowace.com/files
2) copy over your "Gatherer.lua" or "MapNotes.lua" variables file from WoW's WTF folder to the cartographer_import folder.
3) Start WoW. You should see a bunch of messages in your chat window saying it imported a specific note.
4) Log out of WoW, and delete the variables file that you copied over in step 2 so that it doesn't try to reimport everything every time you log in.

FYI, I modified a recent copy of the import plug in that will import herb and mining nodes from CT_MapMod. I emailed it to "[email protected]" over a week ago, but still haven't heard anything. If anyone is interested, I can post it somewhere.

If there was such a feature, it would kick you from the game for spam due to the fact that the info is sent via the chat. And if it was timed to avoid that, it could take a long time to send the info..

I've been using the latest build of Cartographer for about a week now, and I went to the features section to request a feature that would add an automatic waypoint to the corpse on death. I was informed that there already is a feature like this in Cartographer.

After spending a good hour looking through all the areas in the options, and then looking through the files themselves for info, I can't seem to find out how to enable this. It doesn't seem to be enabled by default for me, and I'm positive I have the latest Cartographer.

Can anyone help?

Hello WolfSinger,

thank your for the description. I have done this exactly the way you showed up but i receive an error screen. I got something like "Cartographer_Import/Import.lua.254:Babble-Zone-2.2: Reverse translation fpr "nil" does not exist" Where ist the problem ? I´m using all the latest version that i can get using Wowaceupdater. Is it because i´m using the german client ?

EDIT: it seems as if there was an update for Cartographer and Cartographer_Import as well. Now i don´t get an error screen. In the chat there´s the message "Cartographer-Importone importing nodes" but theres no herbalism node on any Cartographer Map that was build with Gatherer.

Very sad, i would really like to use Cartographer instead of Gatherer but if i can´t import my gatherer nodes Cartographer is allmost useless for me

I was thrilled to see that the 2.0 database is now supported with Cartographer_Import, however for me none of my mining or herbalism nodes got imported. I'd be happy to provide a copy of my Gatherer.lua file if someone is willing to debug. PM me.
