v1.2.7
13 August 2009
(Written for Live Servers v3.2.0.10192)
Routes allow you to draw lines on the worldmap linking nodes together into an efficient farming route from existing databases. The route will be shown (by default) on the minimap and zone map as well.
Use /routes to begin.
Features:
- Select node-types to build a line upon. The following are supported
- Cartographer_Fishing
- Cartographer_Mining
- Cartographer_Herbalism
- Cartographer_ExtractGas
- Cartographer_Treasure
- GatherMate
- Gatherer
- HandyNotes
- Optimize your route using the traveling salesmen problem (TSP) ant colony optimization (ACO) algorithm
- Background (nonblocking) and foreground (blocking) optimization
- Select color/thickness/transparency/visibility for each route
- For any route created, finding a new node will try to add that as optimal as possible
- Quick clustering algorithm to merge nearby nodes into a single traveling point
- Quickly mark entire areas/regions as "out of bounds" or "taboo" to Routes, meaning your routes will ignore nodes in those areas and avoid cross them
- Fubar plugin available to quickly access your routes
- Cartographer_Waypoints and TomTom support for quickly following a route
- Works with Chinchilla's Expander minimap and SexyMap's HudMap!
- Full in-game help file and FAQ, guiding you step by step on what to do!

grum Thu, 21 May 2009 08:19:31Namj, try clustering your nodes before you optimize or select less points to optimize (ea difference sources), also turning off 'extra' optimization will reduce the time immensely.
Depending on the speed of your PC wow will hang for some time (normally not longer than 15-30 seconds with 'reasonable' amount of nodes).
When I just tried to optimize a route in the barrens with 712 nodes in it my pc hang for 11 minutes and disconnected after. I reclustered the nodes on 60 yards and ended up with 373 nodes which it optimized in 82 seconds (4 passes, extra optimization). When I unticked the 'extra optimization' it only took 35 seconds (also 4 passes, 3 took 27s).
If it hangs longer, you are selecting too much nodes for your pc to optmize over :)

Xinhuan Fri, 01 May 2009 07:48:11Routes does not and will not work with Carbonite, which tries to mimic the existence of Cartographer.

Kazragore Tue, 28 Apr 2009 04:47:42Don't work with cartographer anymore. Tried to make a cobalt route with notes from gatherer in borean tundra, bot nothing happens on the map. I see the route only on the minimap. -.-

Ithato Fri, 17 Apr 2009 18:18:18@Lastbreath, @ford9400: My installed copy of Routes (r221) works correctly for me in 3.1, I was just farming with it yesterday. I'm using TomTom r199, most recent version of Mapster, and most recent version of GatherMate, as of yesterday at about 5pm EST.

Pimpace Wed, 01 Apr 2009 15:15:23Hello!
This addon supports only Cartographer map addon? Coz I've got this error when my UI is loading up. I use Mapster and Gathermate.
