I have a bit of suggestion - and i am not sure it's possible at all what i have in mind - but what would be absolutely great it would be to have the possibility, after entering the numeric loc in the loc box, to show a temporary POI at those coord. - very similar to what has been implemented on the web maps with the "show loc" button.

Not possible. There's no way to split the location into top/left, and no way to merge top/left into a valid location.

Wait a minute, I may have read your post wrong. Do you mean ingame?
I thought you meant after you submit, but after rereading I see that wasn't said like I thought it was.
That has been implemented.
If you do mean ingame, it is possible, and I have a way to do it, it just needs to be put in...

You figured out how to dynamicly position a PoI in-game based on input in the PathFindLocation textbox? Ooh, cool. Share!

Indeed i meant ingame And yes, it would require to dynamically allocate a POI to be mapped to something you type on the pathfinding box (with all the complication of incomplete typing, erroneous loc, wrong format, etc. that might happen when typing a loc). That's why i wonder whatever might be possible at all or not.
Still it would be a pretty cool feature, sometimes you type a loc you want to go to and even if you can more or less figure out the general area in the map still don't have a visual representation.
P.S. sorry if i am not clear enough when i write - not english mother tongue

My suggestion would be to allow a POI submitter to change some data in their submission. I just posted 4 POI before realizing that was not the name of my character i needed to put in the Name line but the name of the POI.

I love the maps!
Only 1 thing I would love to see implimented:
I love to explore and see places and find things on my own, as do many of my friends and guildmates.
How about an option to turn on/off the POI's from the maps?
(a second probally impossible thing would be to put a fog setting on dungeons or places that didnt have maps)
Thanks for all that hard work!

We're working on a system to toggle the POIs. There's a rough POI toggle plugin in the EQ2MAP downloads section already though.
We cannot add fog to zones. Sorry.
You're welcome!

A most excellent tool, and one that I use daily... Thanks to all who have worked on this!
Suggestion... remove the entries for the instanced zones (pirate's hidden stash, rumbler caves, Vallon hoarding halls, etc). These zones are random spawns, and once used, disappear. Currently, all they do is clutter up the maps, as they're at the stated location less than half the time when you go there.

Why do you guys keep using works like "impossible" and "can't" when somebody asks for a change? Is there some sort of API which you guys have to follow forbidding some segments of code?
Adding fog seems relativly easy to me, create fog which cover the whole map, as a character's location changes remove fog from the area within a certain radius of their location.
My suggestion would be to allow adding of your own hotkey points ingame to the map.
Another idea is to add in the location next to the mouse as it moves over the map, so that we can see the location on that section of the map, rather than just at the given points on hte map.

Any idea when you will be able to have a toggle button for the POI's added to the map? Or will it always remain as an addon feature? The one currently out appears to have some issue(s) with the EQ2map Auto update. I haven't tried it yet but it would be nice to have it already included.
POI Color options would be a nice addition too.

Glowing trail
It seems that the glowing trail I get from clicking POI's dissapears when I close the map. I'm running my interface at 1280x1024 so I don't have enough screen realestate to keep it open. Is this a known problem?

Places that already has a POI
Hi guys, i'm just wondering if there's a list of places that has been already put in for POI, but haven't been implemented in the maps. I'm asking because I'd like to help out by listing some POI in high end zones like CT, LS, EF and whatnot, but I don't really want to post a POI that has already been submitted. Thanks.

There's not currently a list. And since this can and does change daily it probably wont be put up. If its not put up on the website or ingame, I would suggest that if you would like to, go ahead and do it. If its already done, maybe it will even be better than ours.

Yes we know about this, Quib is currently working on a fix for this. I think it may have been discovered that if you use the M hotkey instead of the X on the window that it doesnt get rid of the trail...it might have been the other way around. When we do find a resolution for the issue, we will post the news and you will see the new files immediately.

Not only does this pertain to the mod itself, and not the website, to which this thread pertains, but we are working on it, plus you did fine without these group members on the map before the update. Patience is Virtue. There are a few posts saying that this in in the works, if you want your own personal reply I suggest that you post a new topic in the EQ2MAP forum.

the group members work fine with the mod, perhaps he has a really old version. go download the updater and run it to get the newest version.

The group member icons were working, however I've noticed that they stopped showing yesterday, and I run the updater everytime before I log in, so I have an up-to-date copy.

Small suggestion
Hi all - first just wanna say that I love the EQ2Map mod - its become an indespensable tool that has increased my gameplay competence immensly - as a Guild Officer, its been a huge help in cutting down the amount of time I spend guiding my guildies with various tasks - you make me look good
the only real suggestion I have has nothing to do with the program at all - but for the website - I've noticed that you get a lot of comments for features that are just not possible to impliment - was thinking the FAQ could be updated with a detailed "what we cant do" section, might help cut down on all the comments you keep getting that are so frustrating and time consuming to deal with.
thanks for a great mod - keep it up, it gets better with each release.

Small suggestion
Don't know if its already mentioned but I can't exit the map screen by pressing escape like I could with the originial map interface. Maybe its possible to make this small fix?
By the way, what a great program!!!!! Way to go!

The map window not closing on escape isn't a bug. It is a change that was made intentionally. If you prefer the window to close when you press escape, you can get this mod : http://www.eq2interface.com/download...fo.php?id=3496.
