Take the backup of Morrowind.exe from before you made any changes with the Morrowind Code Patch, and that has the normal sized map. Now just re-apply any patches you want to keep with MCP.
Doesn't work either. It seems to me that the issue is with the savegame, because even if I run it in Vanilla Morrowind it stays the same.
Luckily, I made a backup of it after making this thread so this issue remains the same as in my first post.
