Does the correct order of installation solve the issue where map resolution is smaller, therefore icons are misplaced? I think that is because Stirk is added to the map, making it larger, but the icons still stay at the same place, making them off their position. I have the same issue as Azcemis above at the moment (haven't chnaged the order of installation yet), and wanted to see if there was a solution. Will installing Merged Maps (only ESP) solve that?
Yes, that is precisely what the Merged Maps esp is for (Even in that project the esp is ONLY for those maps with Stirk.)
As for resolution; it is possible that I made a mistake with the sizes, but as there are far too many for me to check easily - you can do it yourself:
Look in the file you downloaded and check the sizes of the three "cyrodiil_resized" files, they SHOULD be:
Stirk maps:
menus folder: 8.0mb
menus50 folder: 2.0mb
menus80 folder: 5.1mb
Other maps:
menus folder: 2.0mb
menus50 folder: 512kb
menus80 folder: 1.28mb
The maps themselves have no esp/esms so there is no load order. Just install the map set you want in your Data folder.
MergedMaps.esp, if using a Stirk map, loads (BOSS does it) right after the Bashed Patch - right neat the end of the load order
