anyone had an issue with the zoomed in map

[Deltobbi]

not working right when outdoors?

 

When in dungeons, towns etc it's fine. But when outside, my map is there...but...there is nothing on it showing my location so it's hard to know where I am

 

 

 

Here is the pics...

 

Inside a city(arrow is there):

Outside the City, I'm standing right by the lighthouse in the middle (no arrow showing the location of my character):

is that map key in vanilla oblivion? And if not does anyone have any idea what mod it might be as it might be whats causing the issue.

How many mods are you using?

 

That doesn't look familiar to me. You might just have to disable all your mods and then re-enable them slowly until you find out what it is. Hopefully, it's not too many.

The map key is used in Darnified UI (UI=User interface). There are countless variations of it so I don't know exactly which one you have (I don't have the colored markers, but my map is colored....green for grass, blue for water, etc.). The marker for the player location works on the version I'm using.

 

If you have the full Darnified UI install, there should be a 'darnified settings' tab (first the section that shows your health and then the last tab on the right), and one of those settings can turn on (or off) the player marker. Check to make sure it isn't turned off.

Edit: Nevermind, I think that changes something else since I turned it off and my marker is still on the map.

Edit 2: Player position is the one, not player marker. You have it turned on, so it should be showing, so it must be something else that is not causing it to show up.

I had the same problem in one of the Oblivion realms, it was solved by saving and reloading though, I assume your issue stayed?

I have witnessed this problem in a mod with a new worldspace. They say that if cell 3,3 in a worldspace is modded, it makes it so you lose your marker and auto-centering on your close-in map. I would guess that you have a mod which mods that cell in the Tamriel worldspace. If you found and disabled that mod, the problem should go away.

Thanks for that. That's helped me figure out what it was.

 

I disabled all my mods that add new areas to the game one at a time and found out it was Fort Walastar so no big loss.
