About GatherNow
GatherNow - Gathering Level Helper
GatherNow aims to be a lightweight gathering profession assistant. Its soul purpose in existence is to provide a small visual queue for what resource to gather and where to gather it best.
The helper was designed from the point of view of a high level character skilling up a gathering profession. It is intended to provided the fastest possible route to max level as possible.
More details below:
Features:
- Supports Mining and Herbalism
- Interface provides a small icon for the resource(s)you should be gathering and the location(s) they can be found
- Mousing over the resource will tell you it's name and suggested zone for farming it. The suggested zone may change as you skill up, alternate zones included for some but not all resources.
- Display level as you skill up
- Remind you to train when available with a chat message and a sound
- Uses some ACE3 Framework
- When possible the recommended zone is based upon your current location. (This is mainly used in Kalimdor and Eastern Kingdoms)
IMPORTANT Things to note:
- Suggestions are based upon information gathered on Wowhead
- Rare resources are not required to level therefore currently do not exist in the helper
- You may come across ore or herbs that are not suggested to gather in order to level. This does not mean you shouldn't gather it. The suggestions are based solely on getting to max skill as soon as possible.
In Planning but might take some time to happen:
- Skinning Help
- More adjusting and clarification of the frame. Current resourece icons are too close together on the window.
- Way Point to next zone, map overly of where to find the resource in a zone
- Gathered material values, scan all gathering prof mats in the AH and give list of prices and suggested farming for profit
- Improved Character level and location logic to improve suggestions for lower level players
Things this add-on won't do:
- Track nodes or routes - there are already several great add ons available for doing this and I do not wish to reinvent the wheel in that aspect.
Known Issues:
- Screen location does not accurately retain it's exact location.
- Currently modes must be toggled by using the buttons on the gui. Tracking interaction hopefully will work in the future
- Does not remember your tracking on reload of UI (this includes login), therefore you currently have to select the toggle for what you are farming
- Does not properly hide if you do not have the gathering skills supported

This does nothing in my German client. Just sits on top of my character completely empty.
When will Gathernow be updated to Patch 5.0.5.. it gives errors in the game...
errors allso in mining
Update for patch 5.0.4 please!
Mining has been updated. Not that it was needed. Also working in best for Hebalism.
Had been working well, but lately displays the wrong skill level on the window, and as a result the wrong ore required to mine, and does not update as I mine. Is it possible to implement a reset option, eg /gn reset or perhaps reset when you open the professions window. I love this addon, and don't want to lose it.
I will look into this issue. Not sure if Blizz changed an API Call but will make sure it is working.
Seems to work. But the best place for golden Sansam is Swamp of Sorrows not Blasted Lands. Checked the Wowhead data base to find it. [lvl 261 herbalism]
Thanks for the information. I will see about correcting/adding that information when I work on the changes for beta.
Apparently its not showing the node locations, just shows the node i should mine
That is the intent Shamrom. There are many great addons out there that show you where nodes are located. GatherNow is designed to help you know what zone and material to gather to level a profession and not display nodes like Gatherer
Well, Gathernow seems not to work on frFR client. the squares remain empty.
I have not at this point attempted any localization at all. I may look into localizing and broader availability but it's currently not a top priority
It would be cool to be able to input your on locations and mobs for cloth and skin farming also for your addon to be complete you should include a fish tracker that shows the best place to farm schools of fish and also lets you fish by double clicking the water that has been a very good feature for fishermen in the past :)
Skinning is planned for a release in the near future. Adding cloth gathering, fish tracking and maybe even disenchanting information may be a very good idea to make the add-on whole. I will see about adding them.
how do you get this to work? i installed it via curse and it doesn't do anything... is there a required framework that also needs to be installed separately? I see mentioned this uses the ACE3 framework, but did not see any additional download links... seems very handy, would like to test it out, but after trying to install a few times, i gave up...
