Description:


This one works with controllers too 🙂

It’s a minimap mod with a bit of a different approach. (Watch demo video above)

Features:
  • Adds game-screen mouse support, hold F1 to use mouse and interact with + / – buttons as well as hover over markers to read the label.
  • 5 zoom levels (zoom gets saved across sessions)
  • Adjustable scaling in settings (change size)
  • Ability for users to hide the minimap completely so that servers where not everybody wants a minimap can use it as well (button is hidden in the very top right corner of the screen)
  • Ability to move minimap by grabbing the player icon in the center and dragging with the mouse to reposition
  • Shows guild members no matter how far they are (can disable guild tracking in settings or admins can disable functionality server-wide)
  • Shows nearby landmarks pinned to the edge even if they’re slightly off the map to help with navigation (adjustable range in settings)
  • Shows corpse location from any distance allowing you to get back to your body easier.
  • Compass mode (rotate minimap instead of player, North marker will appear when switching to this mode)
  • Clock that can display Server / Client / Game time (option in settings), still displays local time on hover
  • Adds infinite range marker to home (bed location) and bedroll
  • Several color themes for the border elements
  • Native support for EL, Siptah and Savage Wilds maps, works on other maps too but functionality is limited (no POI markers, sadly not much I can do about this in Unreal 4.15 since we cannot read rows from datatables not already in the devkit via blueprints)

Sadly it currently cannot show custom player-made map markers.
This is not a fault of the mod, I had every intention to add them, however it is currently not possible to do so without the devs making changes to the devkit. I have requested it though so, in time we might have that too.
(I am aware there are minimap mods out there that have them, however those simply make another instance of the real map and use that as the background with all the icons already on them.
This mod however is completely custom-made, as such it allows more freedom for further changes / improvements in the way it works and it’s not locked to Funcom’s default methods. For starters it works fine with controllers)

Compatibility:

Compatible with everything.
(Even other popular UI mods like Hosav’s, in which case users on a server having both mods installed can pick which minimap to use and disable the other)
The only potential issue would be a hotkey conflict in case you have the F1 key bound to something else or used by another mod (it’s still compatible with CE Helper’s shift+F1)

Some of my other mods:
  • Armor and Weapon Stats in Bench (shows you the stats of things in the bench before crafting)
  • Reliable Meteor Showers (tiny super-lightweight mod that makes meteors rain sooner if there are less than 5 nodes on the map, solving the issue of scarce star metal – also adds the smoke back to meteor nodes that was removed in Chapter 2)
  • The Damage Meter (measure yours and your followers damage done / taken and dps, can also track 3 additional players)
  • Inventory compactor (button that gets rid of empty slots in custom view inventory and benches)
  • Follower Remote (Lightweight mod that lets you instantly change your followers engagement settings (Passive / Guard Me / Aggressive) via hotkeys or the thrall radial menu without having to be close to them, also has a feature to make them switch to truncheons or use healing potions / bandages in their inventory)

Update policy
  • I will update my mods on my terms and my terms alone. If you don’t like my update schedule, don’t use the mods.
  • Mismatch errors are not the fault of mod creators. If you need help understanding this concept, visit the discord.
