Map Notes
Description:
Map Notes is an AddOn that helps you keeping track of interesting locations in WoW and finding them again. For this purpose Map Notes offers two main functions:

1. Marking notes on the worldmap
2. Showing one of these notes on the minimap (see MiniNote)

Beside these there are several other options to influence the appearance of the notes on the worldmap.

First Steps
Left Click (On The Map)

Left clicking on the map (or the player icon) opens the Map Notes menu, if the click has not implied a zone change. In this menu you will find 4 different buttons:

* Create Note
This will open the Edit Menu and create a note at the position you clicked (clicking on the player icon results in the most accurate positioning of the MiniNote).
* Turn MiniNote Off
If the MiniNote is enabled this is one way to turn it off.
* Options
This opens the Options Menu.
* Cancel
Closes the menu.

Additional note: A left click on a note also opens the menu, but "Create Note" won't be available. Clicking on the player icon may also result in "Create Note" disabled, if you are standing to near to a already existing note.

Move The Mouse Over A Note

Move the mouse over a note to see the tooltip with the information you entered.

Right Click (On A Note)

Right clicking on a note opens the other Map Notes menu. Right clicking anywhere else results in zooming out. Here you will find the following buttons:

* Edit Note
This button opens the Edit Menu to change the note you clicked on.
* Set As MiniNote
Sets the note as the current MiniNote.
* Send Note
Opens the Send Menu.
* Delete Note
Deletes the note without further questioning.
* Cancel
Closes the Menu

Edit Menu

With this menu you can create new notes and edit existing notes.

1. Select the icon style you want to use for your note.
2. Insert a title in the editbox and select a color in which it will be displayed in the tooltip.
Additional note: The title field is mandatory, you cannot create a note without any title - to prevent this the "Save" button is disabled when the title field is empty.
3. Here you can insert additional information for your note and color it in one of the colors below the editbox.
4. Same as Nr 3.
5. Save
Click here to save the changes (or to create the note).
6. Cancel

Options Menu

Here you can adjust how Map Notes behaves in different situations.

1. If the checkbox in front of an iconstyle is checked the notes of this style will be displayed, otherwise they will be hidden.
2. Uses this options to specify if notes from your character should be visible and if notes from other characters should be visible.
Additional notes: "your character" means notes created by a character with the same name as the character your playing with. All other notes (also your notes created when logged in as another character) will be threatened as "created by other characters". Notes are only shown if you enabled them in 1. too.
3. Uncheck these options to disable the red highlight of the last created note or the blue highlight of the note currently set as MiniNote
4. Uncheck the upper option to prevent receiving notes from other players. All incoming notes will then be declined.
Additional note: You can override this option for one note by a Slash Command.
In case the lower checkbox is checked Map Notes will decline incomming notes if they would leave less than 5 notes free.
Additional notes: You can override this option for one note by a Slash Command. This checkbox is disabled if accept notes is turned off.
5. Save
Click here to save the changes and close the Options Menu.
6. Cancel
Closes the Options Menu and discards all changes.

How To Use The MiniNote

A MiniNote is a note placed on the minimap. Moving the mouse over the MiniNote shows the title of the note.

* To show one of your notes on the minimap goto the worldmap, right click on a note and choose "Set As MiniNote".
* To hide the note on the Minimap, you can
o goto the worldmap, left click and choose "Turn MiniNote Off".
o use a Slash Command.

Additional note: The MiniNote is not turned off when the original note is deleted, so you can set a MiniNote up without leaving a note on the map.

Send Notes To Other Players

After clicking "Send Note" in the Map Notes Menu the Send Menu will show up.

1. Enter the name of the player you want to send a note.
Additional note: Targeting the player before opening the worldmap will auto insert the name.

Gatherer
Description:
Gatherer is a WoW addon for herbalists, miners and treasure hunters. It's main purpose is to track the closest plants, deposits and treasure locations on you minimap.

The addon does not track like a tracking ability does, rather it "remembers" where you have found various items in the past. It does this whenever you gather (perform herbalism, mining or opening) on an item, and records the specific map location in it's history. From then on, whenever the item comes into range of being one of the closest 1-25 (configurable) items to your present location, it will pop up on you minimap (see screenshot here).

Installation

Installation is easy, simply download the above zip file, and expand it's contents into your World of Warcraft folder. The final path of the files when extracted with full path information should be "World of Warcraft/Interface/AddOns/Gatherer"

Usage

The usage of Gatherer is fairly straightforward. You simply use the game as normal, and the tracked items will appear in you minimap as soon as you gather them.

There are several configuration options and commands that can be configured via slash commands within the game.

/gather on - turns on the minimap tracking functionality.
/gather off - turns off the minimap tracking functionality. (note, gathering activities are still tracked, even though they do not appear in the minimap)
/gather toggle - toggles the gatherer between on and off states.
/gather dist number - sets the minimap tracking distance to this number of units. (1 unit = 4 seconds of travel)
/gather num number - sets the maximum number of items that will appear in your minimap at once (max 25)
/gather theme name - changes the default icon theme (available themes: original, shaded, iconic; default = shaded)
/gather idist number - sets a pixel distance in your minimap before the icons will change to iconic (default = 40, minimap radius = 60)
/gather herbs (on|off|auto) - select whether to show herb data on the minimap
/gather mining (on|off|auto) - select whether to show mining data on the minimap
/gather treasure (on|off|auto) - select whether to show treasure data on the minimap

If you find any bugs, please send an email to Norganna at norganna@gmail.com - thanks.

Notes:
The herbs, mining and treasure options are per-character settings (meaning it remembers the settings for each character individually.
The auto setting uses the character's skills to determine whether they should see the herbs or mines. Treasures are always shown when they are on auto.

BigMinimap
Description:
Provides a binding to toggle the size of the minimap between 1.15 and 2 times
the normal size.

bc_TrackingMenu
Description:
Adds an icon to the minimap cluster (just below and to the left of where the icon for your active tracking ability appears) with a popup menu that allows you to choose which tracking ability to activate. The menu is displayed when you mouse over the icon and is hidden when your mouse is no longer over the icon or the menu. The list of abilities in the menu is automatically populated* with the tracking abilities available to your character, and should update when you aquire new tracking abilities.

AlphaMap
Description:
This add-on acts as a transparent world map which appears over the screen. While the map is open you can see where you, your party, and/or your tombstone lies. As well, you have full character control while the map is up. This essentially means you can open the map, and then run around as normal while watching your pin update on the map. Finally, there is a slider which allows you to control the transparency of the AlphaMap, so you can make it more or less transparent.

To install: Simply unzip the file into your World of Warcraft directory.

To Use: Go to your Key Bindings, scroll down to “AlphaMap Key Bindings” and bind the toggle to a key. I have mapped mine to “Tab” and moved my enemy selection to another key. Then make sure to say “Ok” when you close the key bindings window. Once out, simply press the mapped key to toggle the AlphaMap on and off.

Known Issues:

- As a result of indicating the player with an arrow, there is now an extra icon on the map which indicates the direction of your party members when they are sufficiently far away from you. This has to do with inheriting functionality from the Minimap. If you know a good way to fix this, please let me know. I have a few ideas, but am not able to implement them at this time.
