Ok. I reinstalled Profit and it worked nicely. Added basic EQ2MAP and it worked just fine. Unzipped the MiniMap addon to the Profit UI and the map goes borked.

The zip, as far as I can see, contains the following:

Profit18\
Profit18\_Fetish_mainhud_minimap.xm

Profit18\eq2map\
Profit18\eq2map\_Fetish_TM_map_dock.xml
Profit18\eq2map\minimap_title.xml
Profit18\eq2map\minimap_window.xml
Profit18\eq2map\plugin_2.xml

Profit18\images\
Profit18\images\minimap_widgets.tga



Did that make sense?

So, I unzip this straight into my UI folder so that the files end up in their respective folders (i.e. the xml files go to the eq2map folder inside profit18, the widgets.tga goes in the images folder and mainhud in the root profit18 folder).

Am I missing something here? hehe. It works nicely up to the point where I unzip this file into the profit18 folder. Minimap shows up black in-game and after I activate the minimap once the regular size map goes funky too, losing some of the borders and whatnot.

As you say, it feels like it's just a matter of a misplaced texture but unless the files in the zip are placed incorrectly I just don't know where to try putting them.
