I haven't actually tested it yet but it looks promising. I'd like to add a few extra bits of info that are required to follow your tutorial. First, if you were in my position you'd notice that there was no data under the gathermate data section when you went to create a route, so in order to import it you have to open up gathermate (Taken directly from the routes website): http://www.wowace.com/addons/routes/ type: /gathermate * Go to 'Import Data' and then to 'GatherMateData' (left side) * If you already have herbs/mines of yourself, select 'Merge' from the 'Import Style' dropdown, otherwise 'Overwrite' is ok. * Select which sources you want to import (ea: Mining/Herbalism) and tick their respective boxes. * Hit the 'Import GatherMateData' button on the bottom. Also, you need to set up a macro and bind it to a key. I didn't know how to do this, but you just have to : 1. Hit esc key to open up the wow menu. Click Macros. Click the New button in the macro window that pops up, and then name your macro. 2. Then, copy paste this into the macro window: /castsequence Find Herbs, Find Minerals 3. You're now done with creating your macro, but you now need to bind it to a key. You can either drag and drop it into your actionbar or bind it to a key of your choice. I chose to bind mine to the "`" key which is diagonal from your "q" key. In order to do this type the following: /script SetBindingMacro("KEY", "macroname"); where Key is the key you're binding it to and "macroname" is the name you gave your macro, in my case it was Findherbs/minera Hope this helps Thanks for this info, I was wondering how to get a neat looking herb/ore map.

Does the same as mentioned for gatherer more or less. If you need instructions on how to load the data just post another comment and I'll let you know as i dont have it in front of me now.

But it's turned out to be a good thing and is something I think you should share this tip as a topic. There's a fortune to be made in the low-level ores. Before TBC, a stack of copper ore would barely fetch 1g...look at it now. My alts are getting rich by selling low level ores on the AH. It's nuts. My point? When in the market for a big purchase with my mains (such as epic and cold weather flying), I can draw substantial funds from my low level alts because they can just quest and instance for their gear until they reach flying mount status. Considering you can easilly make the regular flying mount money from TBC zones while questing and grinding, they only have to have spell and repair funds until they reach 60ish. You don't have to choose between being a gold farmer or an alt-oholic. Sure, farm when you can or just want to do something mindless...but kill two birds with one stone. Gather, gather, gather.
