NWN2 UI

- Jump to comments -
Name  Smaller Big Map
Author  cyricc
Submitted / Updated  11-22-2006 / 11-25-2006
Category  Minor UI change
Patch  1.02
Description
I felt the circular minimap was too constrictive, and the area map too large, so I shrank the area map to about half its height and width.

I was hoping to attain something closer to NWN1-style map, but all the actual map functionality is hardcoded and doesn't lend itself to anything beyond superficial changes. Oh well.

nice job!

Very useful

Fantastic! Loving it! Though I don't understand the need for the xml to remove the minimap, since it is toggled in the prefs (unless when this script was first made that wasn't an option?)

Like the author, I use this instead of his Square Minimap override (or the awful builtin minimap). Great stuff.

Absolute must-have. I wouldn't want to play without it. I hate the stock minimap. Sorry. I didn't realize that I didn't vote. I've used this for over a year. _________________________ "In life, one and one don't make two. One and one make one." -The Who "Bargain"

Very good add, it gave me an idea to remove the area map totally that can be really a must have for PW. size to 0, player arrow to nothing...area map is now totally gone ^^ Many thanks

It is astonishing how much this improved the look of my UI! A definite must have. You don't have to play around with the minimap. Just use this outstanding mod. Brilliant! The best ideas don't have to be big, they just have to make the gaming experience significantly better -- and this mod does just that. _________________________ Mediocrity ain't so bad!

Simple and effective. I much better like to play with this than the default maps. Thanks for making and sharing. _________________________ E.C.Patterson Gaming Parents Studios Trinity, the NWN2 adventure : Download now.

couldn't play without this.

Thanks, this really improved gameplay for me, as I didn't like the minimap at all.
