It would help to know the name of the mod that created the problem.

 

I had a map mod problem that used resources from Shivering Isles, but didn't bother to tell me that.

 

It fouled things up pretty good. You will probably need to go back to a saved game, prior to installing that mod.

Thacadians_Colored_World_Map-2308

 

Colored_world_map_for_Elswyer_version_1dot1-25150

 

those are the names of the files containing the maps

 

I have allready tryed going back to another save game after my attempt to delete all the files and it didnt work. I deleted the esp for one and the other didnt have an esp file but it had 3 menu files in the data folder and I deleted those.

 

Knights of the nine pilgremage is a nightmare without my map working correctly.

I'm going to ask bBen46, to help you out. Simply because he will get to the answers much quicker. I'm pretty sure there must be some files left over from the map mod installation. Possibly XML files or changes in them, which is worse. Map mods usually get integrated into the menu system, and that's where these files would be. If he doesn't step in relatively soon, I will help you take the mod apart to find out what it put where, to see if we can reverse the process.

That's a new one on me. I'm going to have to research it to see where the map data is in the file structure. Then we can probably just remove that particular data to get the vanilla map back.

 

 

Edit:

C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\textures\menus\map\world

 

C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\textures\menus50\map\world

 

C:\Program Files\Bethesda Softworks\Oblivion\Data\textures\menus80\map\world

 

The paths for the Elswyer map are the same.

 

Start by deleting the \world folders from each one and trying it.

If that doesn't work, delete the \map folders.

Then if that doesn't work, delete the \menus, \menues50 and Menues80 folders.

 

That should get back the vanilla map.
