so, i updated my V1.6, MCP, to v1.9 the other day. I turned on the "tamriel rebuilt map exp-tender" and played.
i checked my map while walking around outside caldera, too see that it said i was in the ocean near hla old. i wasn't.

i ran "update map" in wyre mash, and i endup with a map like this;
TR extender:
on: http://i740.photobucket.com/albums/xx49/wollibeebee/Map-TR-on.jpg?t=1296904381
off: http://i740.photobucket.com/albums/xx49/wollibeebee/map-TR-off.jpg?t=1296904385

whats worse is that i so far haven't been to most those places yet..

and it effects new games, but they dont have the annoying "unvisited markers".

i;ve tried multiple settings to turn it off, different combinations of using TR extenderthing and wyre mashes "rebuild map" so far i'm still screwed.

heeeeelp!!

bump, before it goes of the 1st page.

I've only see this happen when you use the MCP map-extension mid-game.
And there doesn't seem to be any fix, including Mash.

I've never seen it affect a New Game, though.

sorry... not really helpful

Just guessing here, but have you tried reverting to the Morrowind.Original.exe (renaming it Morrowind.exe)? And perhaps then trying mesh? Good luck.

nope, still no changes, there's just alwase this sorta "shrunken" version of the map inside the real map.

Ask in the MCP thread perhaps. I mean, how does the map fix even work? Perhaps there is a texture it creates that needs to be deleted. Also, did you have TR installed when you used the map patch?

nah, TR wasn;t installed, not sure why i even did it, might of been a mistake even.

so, i uninstalled MW, and installed it again, uninstalled MCP, remade my ini, launched the game and...

thats A NEW GAME.
wtf?

it's like there's some permanent stain on my map.

please! i really need to resolve this. help!

Might be an obvious question, but when you uninstalled Morrowind, did you go to your Program Files (or whatever alternate location you had the game installed to) and delete the 'Bethesda Softworks/Morrowind' folder? When you run the uninstall program it only removes files that were added by the original installer. Anything added by a mod will remain behind and need to be deleted by hand. Also, if you ran mods that effect the Windows registry entries for the game, they may be left behind as well ... probably unlikely as I don't think many mods mess with registry entries (MCP might, FPS Optimizer might, MGE might though I can't say for sure).

How can you do that with a new game. Do you have FPS Optimizer? Turn it off.

This might be it. If you're using version 2.0
It conflicts with the Code Patch.

Be sure to use version http://planetelderscrolls.gamespy.com/View.php?view=utilities.detail&id=22. It doesn't conflict.

i'm using version 1.96. i'll still try though,

no fps (from now on)
update map
delete mysterious folder "morrowind launcher"
update map
reinstall MCP, no TR map
installed TR map
Update map

still doesn't work

it's got all the locations i've made on the map correctly.
just the "routes" and explored areas (the coulouring) is all shrink-ed-ed.

you on windows 7 or vista?
if so have you moved your MW install from Program Files (x86) folder?

windows XP.

well that rules out my prior ideas.

when you uninstalled and reinstalled MW did you do the same with Wyre Mash?
