[Mod request/Help] More custom map markers.

Hello.

As I'm sure most of you know, patch 1.20 brought changes to the UI, one being the ability to place your own custom map markers, to go back later.

There's a small problem with this. There's a limit of 10 custom markers you can place.

I would like to see a mod that lets you set as many custom markers as you want to.


I already found where to start, in line 45 of ...\The Witcher 3\content\content0\scripts\game\gui\menus\mapMenu.ws there's the otherPinLimit = 10; line.

I tried making a mod and setting this value to 100. It worked somewhat, with the custom map marker limit being 20.


So, there's another value somewhere that I cannot find, or something else that's stopping me.


I'm using the latest patch - 1.22

If someone with more experience either make this mod, or help me out, that would be great.

Thanks :smile:

I have created a mod that removes the limit on custom markers. Get it from the attachment to this post or download it from here.

Unzip and place the files in your Witcher 3 directory in bin\x64. If there's already a "plugins" directory that's fine, just merge it with this mod's one.

If you already have a "dsound.dll", chances are it's the same I have included, so just try it without overriding.

It should work on all versions of Witcher 3 v1.24-v1.31 (and possibly even older versions), no matter if GOTY or not, on Steam/GOG/Galaxy and probably other platforms.

Use at your own risk, I provide no warranty at all. I don't know why the developers decided to put these limits into the game in the first place, I can't rule out technical problems.

Feedback on whether it works for you is appreciated, if it works well for other people I might put the mod onto its own page on Nexus Mods.

 

Credits: The "dsound.dll" I have included is a dll which loads all dlls from the "plugins" directory (so you can have multiple mods that use a dll for code injection), source code of it can be found at gamebooster/dll-plugins-loader, the compiled version I have used was taken from the Adjustable Weight Limit mod. Additionally I used some code/ideas from the aforementioned weight mod for patching the game's memory.

If there's interest I can release the source code of my mod as well.

Working here:

1.32, steam GOTY with all DLC

 

No other mods in place; believe it or not this was the first main feature I wanted changed but I just started into the game a week or so ago (working through my want-to-play-someday backlog).

Kudos on a sweet and simple (I hope) mod that solved my exact problem!
