2nd half Antonica issue

posted this in another thread before I noticed this forum, sorry for the repeat

Not sure if this was posted before, however, I'm running into an issue where the map works great except when I go to the 2nd half of Antonica (where the rotstuff scarecrows are) and the map seems to get stuck there. When I change zones, the map switches to the correct zone, however it still keeps the 2nd half Antonica markers on screen as if I was still in Antonica. Also the map won't switch back to the 1st half at all. I eventually half to just shut down the game and restart it.

I've had this "wrong half of the map" problem the past few days too, in varsoon and feerrott at least. I start off on the right half then at some point while running around it decides to change maps when the changeover isn't due. Not sure what the prob is, i use the autoupdater and ThorUI with no other map related mods.

Same for CL and for Feerrott!!!! Map switches, but Icons remain for the other half. Only way I found to work around is to close the map via the "X" and reopen it, it will reset itself then fine. Pressing the Reset on the map (if you use the mod that adds any map that you can pull up) will NOT correct this issue either. Only way around is physically closing the map window totally and reopening.

Yeah...actually when this happens in Antonica, even if you close out the map with the X, it will not reset itself when it is brought back up. I even tried closing out the map and going to a different zone, say Qeynos or something, and then bringing it back up. Map changes but the icons remain and just make a huge cluster of icons everywhere. The only way I found to fix this is to actually log off to the desktop and re-log in.

By the way I think the map program is great and I'm not dissapointed in it at all. This is just a minor annoyance in an otherwise great program.

do all of you use the fetish ui or the fetish map mod?

Ok.....going off that question, I deleted everything in my default UI folder and reapplied OCD and the EQ2map only. That seems to have taken care of the issue. I went to the 2nd half of Antonica and went back to the first half and everything seems to work fine. Thanks for the suggestion.

Yes taco - is there any way to fix this?

zonx would have to fix it, its a bug with his addon. i believe you can just get rid of his map window and use the default eq2map window to fix it if you still want the rest of the ui, i know he has posted about it before, try doing a search on it or maybe he will see this and post.

Magus · #9 07-27-2005, 03:23 AM

That would get rid of the nice features on that window though, like the mini-map and the view-any-map dropdowns.

Yes the map mod I am using is the one with the pull down menus, mini map, docking, etc etc.

taco-man · #11 07-27-2005, 12:54 PM

yea, unfortunately its a bug that his window has, sorry

I believe the issue is specific to the "load map" plugin so you could theoretically just delete that plugin.

If i remember correctly, you can go to the zone you're having an issue with, load the map for that zone/side of zone, and then choose set as default map to resolve the issue. "Should be one of the buttons on the bottom".

Like I said though, been awhile since I used the plugin so I may be wrong
