Problem with Daggerfall: No map markers

Post » Sat May 28, 2011 4:17 pm

I've recently installed Daggerfall via Dosbox, and so far everything seems to be running fine, except for one thing. When I ask some people about finding a certain location, sometimes they'll claim to mark it on my map, but when I go to the map there's no markers anywhere! This has made a huge chunk of quests basically unplayable, since a lot of them require finding buildings in certain cities. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Have you patched the game to 213?

They mark things with text rather than with an icon.

Yeah, it's the text markers that aren't appearing.

Hmm, look at the map? With my eyes, you mean? Now there's a novel idea! I was actually gonna probe the map with my senses in reverse alphabetical order, starting with tasting and sniffing, but you may be on to something here!!!!!! :P

Oh, by the way, the problem seemed to fix itself after I did a fresh re-install. Thanks anyway!
