http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?f...353&atid=738378

have found the problem...

This is great and the function is ok.
One little problem ist there, the player info, who made self it's not on the correct map.

patch is available on the sourceforge site (DL link in the 2.2.0 new announcement in the News forum).

Hiho got Gatherer-2.2.0.zip + DE_GatherRegionData.zip
but my herbs and ores are displayed in the wrong zones
un'goro items are at mulgore. silithus items are empty.

can some1 help me?

After the installation of the new version and the patch you have to use the "Zone Match" function to transfer your old collected data to the new position.

how 2 do this

Posted by: Medrox on Jan 5 2006, 03:06 PM
Hello. In patch 1.9 some translations of zone names were changed by blizzard (Darkshore -> Dunkelküste / Felwood -> Teufelswald). This also changed the zone order of the lua interface.

...

["DE 1_8_0"] = {
["DE 1_9_0"] = {
{ 1, 2, 9, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ,10, 18, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 19 ,20, 21 },
{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 ,15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 };
},
},

Due to the Incompatibility introduced in Path 1.9 with foreign language Clients (e.g. en client on de server
or vice versa), there is a quick fix for all players with en-client on german servers which basically modifies
the Zone name database on the en client with the german data. (http://www.malganis.de/forum/index.php?topic=5062.90)

However after installing these DB files on the english client, both the Gatherer Zone mapping data
(GatherRegionData.lua) for english servers and german servers is incorrect. (e.g. the STV data is
displayed in Evelynn forrest). It is consistent though between german server and english server with
english client.

I will try and swap the lines in the GatherRegionData.lua file and see which combination fixes this problem.

Ah, sorry. I first did not fully understand the Mechanism. It is a one-time manual process.

if you tinker with the game file itself, you go beyond the support we're willing to provide.

the english zone names didn't change, there's no problem with them.

the german zone names did change, and there's a transition matrix (in the special german patch file mentionned in the news section) to fix that, on a german client (same one that is mentioned in this thread).

if you start mixing files from both localisation, you're bound to have problems (not sure that's considered legal by Bliz either since it does incur modifying game files, even if it by other files that they provide).

Posted by: Daren on Jan 13 2006, 12:45 PM
The Problem is, that after Patch 1.9, the only way to play with the english client on a german server is to
change the location names back to german. So you have a german names for the places and regions, but
everything else is still in english (whoopi working Addons for a change ). This procedure of course completly
confuses gatherer. I managed with several zone matches to get the correct zones again (using the german patch) but now I have the moving circle problem. I know that you are not willing to support this strange client environment, but if you could point me in the right direction concerning this circle problem, I'll try to fix it myself.

that's pretty simple, Gatherer use the client locale to determine which table to use.

since you're using an english client, your locale is english.

since you swapped the zone name files to have german zone names (for channel I suppose), the zone order you have is german (Blizzard don't believe in standardazing index across localisations, they provide only alphabetically sorted tables, which means different indexes for each localisation).

so you have english scaling for a german zone order, since your locale isn't german you don't use the german table provided in the GatherRegionData.lua file (using the german table you wouldn't have wandering icons).

in essence just swap the tables defined in the GatherRegionData.lua file in the english and german section

There is still a problem with arthas' tears! Please look into my note on the kink above!

Edit [Islorgris]: yep, I've seen it this week end, didn't have time to have a look though.

Quote:I have the same problem ( Notes in Eastern Kingdoms displaying correctly, notes in Kalimdor being in other zones than they should be ). If somebody can post a easy to carry-out solution, then please do so, I tried moving around some indexes and it didn´t do anything at all.

On another note, due to me using the Gatherer in that semi-functional state and then doing the Zone Rematch, I now got some Blindweed I gathered in the Southshore region. How exactly can I get rid of that?

same ... if you have a solution for non technical profis ... plz post it

Server : Gilneas
Clinet : DE
Gatherer 2.2.0 with DE Patch

still the same

Darkshore/Dunkelküste displays in Darnassus/Darnassis and so on

Ho-boy... two *very* frustrating days behind me.

First off, I tried to work Gatherer with my English client, with the "Hotfix" which enables me to enter German channels ( change of zone names to their German names ). No dice, while the Eastern Kingdoms would display correctly, I just couldn´t figure out how to make Kalimdor display like it should ( Ashenvale and Azshare display correctly, as does Winterspring, but after that all other zones are at least one region off ).

Having finally despaired of fiddling around with the GatherRegionData.lua, I caved and installed the ELP German Client over my English normal version ( I despise translations... ), thinking that this would solve my problems.

Well, no such luck. Eastern Kingdoms displays correctly, Kalimdor still doesn´t ( I haven´t checked if the zones are still matched in the same out-of-order way they were yesterday ).

And, *also* instead of the icons on the main map, I got only green circles, showing both minerals and herbs at once...

Any idea what I still can do? I´m kinda despairing of it right now.

Magnus

just as reminder, the fix item name checkbox in the zone match dialog, does not translate anything, it simply fix the item name that have been localised differently in the client locale or recording errors that were made in previous versions.

if you want to translate your database from one client to another, you'll have to do it manually (hint: using the node editor for this does make it somewhat less painful).

Hi all,

i am having troubles installing the latest version. German Client, German Server.
Here is what i did:
- Extracted the V2.2.0 into my wow folder. -> /wow/interface/addons/gatherer
(logged in to check if its working: no herbs are displayed on neither minimap nor world map until i gathered them myself)
- Extracted the DE hotfix into the gatherer folder. -> /wow/interface/addons/gatherer
- logged in and performed a "zone match" from DE1.8.0 to DE1.9.0.
Same result as above.

Conclusion: Gatherer works but the RegionData file is somehow not loaded.

Anyone got an idea how to fix this issue?

Thanks in advance.

Hi!

I don't know why some1 should use the zonematch function. before I used it, everything was working fine for me. Darkshore items were in Darkshore and so on. After my husband told me to perform zonematch, the darkshore items were in darnassus and some other stuff isn't at the right place. As I looked at the gatherregiondata.lua, I've found that number 9 was now putted at the 3rd place. 9 is darkshore (dunkelküste in german) and 3 is darnassus. I think that's the problem. tried to change that all manually but it didn't work. I've lost all my data since the beginning of my playing of WoW now. Didn't have a backup, my fault, but I didn't thought that it'll mess up something.

Posted by: Islorgris on Feb 8 2006, 07:11 PM
Darkshore wasn't translated before 1.9 patch, so it was index 3. The zone match identify that the index 3 (third entry in the table, ie. Darkshore index pre-patch) should be put in the rebuilt database as index 9 (new index number for Darkshore post-patch).

ok, then the zonematch seems not functioning correctly... but it's weird that all data was ok before perdorming zonematch for me

Quote:
usually doesn't work if you don't know what you're doing exactly (which is really a matter of not forgetting to switch all indexes and performing the modifications offline).

The problem was, that some of the data was correct at this zone and some incorrect. I thought it was better deleting all collected data then looking which entry is wrong and which is not. And I changed some numbers of the entries and allways doing this type of things when WoW is not runnig

Quote:
there is a warning before the zone match is performed quite clearly stating that the database is going the be modified, that's a reminder to do that.

yeah... it will be modified... didn't knew that zones changed... thought only naming things of herbs and ores will be changed... and as i said... that was my fault...

With 1.10 again we have a change of the zone name in German. Does anyone managed to make changes like below? I tryed, but mixed some zones

Posted by: Medrox on Jan 5 2006, 03:06 PM
Hello. In patch 1.9 some translations of zone names were changed by blizzard (Darkshore -> Dunkelküste / Felwood -> Teufelswald). This also changed the zone order of the lua interface.

The corrected region table:
...
The corrected zone match table:

...

Maybe you want to change these values in the 2.2.0 release to enable this version to german users who are not able to do this changes themselfes.

Edit [Islorgris]: removed some part of the huge quote

Posted by: Islorgris on Mar 29 2006, 09:01 PM
just list the new zone order (ie order the names appear in in the world map drop down), I'll put together the new matrix.

PS: just as a side note, if someone had reported this from the test server, it would be ready by now.

it should be

"Der Wald von Elwynn"
"Die S\195\188mpfe des Elends"
"Die Vorgebirge von Hillsbrad"
"Die brennende Steppe"
"Die sengende Schlucht"
"Die verw\195\188steten Lande"

i postet only the part with the changes with the first and the last right one

Xandri

mhh i have made some tests.. it seems that blizzard have changed the german zoneshift to the english ones.. it seems that the have 1 zoneshift table for all countrys...?? but i can make not garanty on this.

I´m very glad that I found the Add-On Gatherer. But since Patch 1.9 I have big troubles with some regions. I don´t know how to solve them. In fact I have problems with these regions:

Dunkelküste (wrong notes from another region), Teldrassil (wrong notes from another region), Teufelswald (since 1.9 no notes at all), Desolace (there are notes from Un´Goro Krater), Darnassus (wrong notes from another region), Die Marschen von Dustwallow (wrong notes from another region), Die Sümpfe des Elends (there are notes from Die sengende Schlucht) and Die sengende Schlucht (there are notes from Die brennende Steppe).

I think there is a solution to sort them correctly, can you help me?

Thanks a lot.

ok the correct zone match is

    ["DE 1_9_0"] = {
        ["DE 1_10_0"] = { -- current for 1.10 zone name changes
            { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 ,20, 21 },
            { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 10, 11, 12, 14 ,15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 };
        },
    },
    ["DE 1_10_0"] = {
        ["DE 1_10_0"] = { -- Identical for name fixes purpose only
            { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 ,10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19 ,20, 21 },
            { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 ,15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 };
        },
        ["US/UK"] = {
            { 1, 2, 4,17,14,20, 5, 7, 3, 6, 9,10,11,12,13,15,16, 8,18,19,21 },
            { 1, 2,20,14,25, 3, 6,16,10,15,19,11, 5, 4,23, 9, 7, 8,12,13,17,18,21,22,24 };
        }
    },



i have uploaded the GatherRegionData.lua you can download it put it in the gatherer directory
and in the game make a zone match from 1_9_0 to 1_10_0

here ist the link
[removed]

P.S. i hope i have nothing done the authors of gatherer don't want but i like your tool very much and want to help the german users

Edit [Islorgris]: replaced the quoted code in the proper format (wouldn't fit correctly in the table otherwise) and removed link (since the new version is coming).

Did u convert the regions from 1.9->1.10 already?

Posted by: Guest on Apr 4 2006, 10:10 AM
Regions, which are "wrong":

New German Translations (not 100% sure):

Stranglethorn --> Schlingendorntal
Duskwood --> Dämmerwald
Redridgegebirge --> Rotkammgebirge
Thousand Needles --> Tausend Nadeln

Please fix, thanks in advance . Maplist will follow (by me or someone else ) if europe servers will run sometime today .

I have fixed the "GatherRegionData.lua" for the german zone shifting and renamed zonenames with patch 1.11.

You may download the new files here:

(German text there)

G######ings
Naturfreund

I assembled the mapping in parallel and think I can confirm Naturfreund's work
["DE 1_10_0"] = {
    ["DE 1_11_0"] = { -- 1.10 to 1.11
        { 1, 2, 4, 3, 14, 20, 5, 9, 6 , 7, 8, 10, 11, 12, 13, 15, 17, 18, 16 ,19, 21 },
        { 1, 2, 7, 10, 15, 24, 6, 13, 21, 12, 16, 20, 3, 19 , 23, 25, 4, 5, 8, 9, 14, 11, 17, 18, 22 }
    }
}
I created the mapping by correlating the German GatherRegionData from Gatherer 2.2.2 with the list produced by this little script:
LoggingChat(1);
for continent=1, 2, 1 do
    zones = { GetMapZones(continent) };
    for zone in zones do
        text = zone .." ".. zones[zone];
        SendChatMessage(text);
    end;
end;
Here is the List from the chatlog (timestamps trimmed):

good, I'll include that in 2.2.3 and make the release as soon as possible (no promise for tonight since this is raiding day for me)

Thanx <3 Gatherer

Posted by: Guest on Jun 22 2006, 10:39 AM
I can't confirm the data posted here.
With the line postet here I received a mix-up with

16 Sümpfe des Elends
20 Vorgebirge von Hillsbrad

At least those two are wrong. Somebody have an idea?

If these are wrong, what are the correct ones?

Posted by: Islorgris on Jun 22 2006, 11:56 PM
while we're on the topic of german localisation, if someone could hop to Felwood and write down the name of the 4 corrupted plants as you collect them, I'll be able to include that as well in the release.

I know only about 3 corrupted plant in Felwood (Teufelswald):

• Verderbte Liedblume
• Verderbte Peitscherwurzel
• Verderbte Windblüte

Pelion

There seems to be an error in the file GatherRegionData.lua for the german section:

For the german locale there are 22 entries instead of 21 for Kalimdor. "Marschen von Dustwallow" is falsely index 6 and index 10.

The line 96 should be deleted and "Dunkelk\195\188ste" should become the new index 6 and so on.

I know only about 3 corrupted plant in Felwood (Teufelswald):

• Verderbte Liedblume
• Verderbte Peitscherwurzel
• Verderbte Windblüte

Pelion

The fourth is the

[*]Nachtdrachenodem

I must confess, that I'm using a HerbsDbase, downloaded. [url removed] These should be from 1.8 or something. They worked fine, till 1.10. I had no problems with Regions Data. But with 1.11 everything changed. I downloaded 2.2.3 but the conversation of the Matrix didn't function right. I tried it by hand, doing it myself, the result was also false. I must confess I've got no idea, how to make this thing work again

Edit [Islorgris]: please do not post link to external database, I'd like to remind you that since we have no control over external database content, we do not provided any support for database related issues in such case.
PS: I'll delete the next post with the url name in readable text.

Can I repair this or is there some incorrect attitude? Or must I search all herbs new and delete all data, what must I delete in this situation???

In the Addon-file I have delete all from gatherer and extrectly direct 2.2.3. no result.

don't you get a warning when you log in a character ?

I suggest reading up the documentation about the zone match (that's in the basic help, there's even a german version, translation courtesy of one of the forum user).

it's very simple.

Zone Match is a dumb zone shifting utility.

That implies that if you gather things without fixing your DB fisrt you'll write them in the correct index for the game but in the wrong indexes in the DB (ie old zone indexes).

When you perform the zone match, all the current content of the zone index is moved to the new zone index, including stuff you added after the new zone indexes went in effect ingame but before you performed the shift.

Another reason why the zone data should be available before patch day and for which there is a warning in the pre-patch announcement (in the news section of the forum) to disable Gatherer in order to avoid these false records until the new version with the transition matrix to the new zone index is out.

I get an error, that the version is new. And when I say Yes, is this Problem, also when I delete all and say then no.

I have 3 Member, and must I need it for 1 member only, must I make I have the same option in all Character ?

the Problem is only in Un'goro Krater, anything else, also a friend has the same Problem, but her is deleted the complete Database!!!

After I wrote down the lines I thought about the same you mentioned...
I turned Gatherer off since the patch 1.11 was out until I got the new Version of Gatherer but forgott it after Patch 1.10...

If I install the old version of Gatherer I used before the actuall version and perform a zone-match with this Version, could this fix my problem or is the DB messed up anyway?

At this point the database has become slightly corrupted. There is no automatic way to fix this, and downgrading will not do anything to help the problem. In order to solve the problem, you really only have two options

1. If you have an old backup of your database then you could restore it, but you would lose any data you collected since then
2. otherwise your only option is to clean up the database manually

As a last resort, if the problem is really bad, then you could always delete your old database and start from scratch, but you probably want to attempt repairs before resorting to that option.

Cheers

Thx again for your help...

I think i will delete the wrong nodes manually...

Keep up the great work on (IMO) one of the most usefull Mods for WoW...

Hello,

maybe this sounds like a noob to you. But in some way I don't know how to do a zone match.

I disabled gatherer 2.2.2 as intended. Installed gatherer 2.2.3 and move my database file into my wtf folder.

When I start the game and log in I get a message that the zones have changed. I only can check this box with OK. I don't have any other options here.

My herbs still all show up in the wrong places. As mentioned here often I cannot find an option to fix zone match. Do I need a special addon for this to do so? Where do I find this option if it is also included.

Thanks for your help.

Edit [Islorgris]: there should be some explanation about that on page 1 of this thread as well as a link to the documentation section.

sgjp77 Great translations. Thanx.

But now my question to the developers: Is there already an entry-point (like for Auctioneer) where he/she could have entered it another way than via the forum? Or is that still under development.
