Misaligned Points of Interest

I checked and didnt see a thread with the same problem as me, if anyone knows of one please forgive me and point me in the right direction.

I have used EQ2 map with no problem since the summertime, however when the new expansion went live, my maps went screwy. By that I mean a few things:
1) when I enter a new zone I have to open and close the map to make any of the locations, points of interest or any other markings appear
2)everything is waaaaaaaay out of alignment, but only the graphics for it. If I click on a location I want to go to, it still puts an X on the proper spot on the map and leads me to the right place, but the actual marker for that location is generally halfway or all the way across the map. As im fairly new to the game this tends to be a bit confusing especially in zones that are hard to navigate or if I am trying to find a certain dot :P

I have completely uninstalled my original download and reinstalled the newest version in order to try and fix it, but no luck. This happens on all of my pcs so I know its not just a problem with this one.

Any suggestions?

In which zones does this happen? Can you attach a screenshot?

It happens in all zones, ill try to get some better screenies but for now, here is one I just took standing on the griff tower near south q gates. As you can see the marker for North Qeynos is nowhere near the actual location... One of the towers and the gnoll cave are in the water etc. You cant tell unless you know all the minor points by heart, but they are all skewed the same way

Yea, notice this happening in a few zones myself.

Looks like its just the SOE ones that are all confuzzled. The regular POIs from EQ2MAP appear fine in your first image (the one of Antonica) -- I know as those blue dots run along the road as they should.

Interesting, though. I wonder if it has anything to do with the RoK changes and how they compensated for them.

This bug only happens in certain zones. It's a bug in the default map since November and it has nothing to do with the EQ2MAP.

You can /camp <your character> to fix it.
