Problem with FetishNightfall and EQ2map
EQ2map seem to change my FetishNightfall UI files..
I deleted everything and did a fresh install of the new Fetish Nightfall v9.5 and the new EQ2map v.1.0.13.
If I start the game before updating my maps the map window is perfect but as soon as I update my maps.. I get the default UI version of the map window with the toolbars of fetish and no fog check/uncheck option.
I tryed that option from EQ2map to not overwrite eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml but seem like it still doesnt work.
Please some help would be awesome.

Me too but it's working now
The exact same thing happened to me for the past few days and I posted a little while ago about it but just now I logged in and it's working fine again. Didn't do anything, the trouble disappeared as quickly as it started. Check yours and see if it's now working too.

thats not the case for me as ive just checked. will overwrite the files with clean versions from the fetish-archive.

btw: you can also change the attributes of files through the windows explorer (in XP and 2000 atleast, not sure about vista). Open the folder and select the files you want to modify (ctrl-a for all) then right click one of the icons and select properties..

ya i am aware of this
but imo the attrib-way is fast because it changes all 4 changed files at once and personally i extremely dislike clicking around in gui-windows

The EQ2MAP just got some major changes to work with GU40. For two weeks the auto updater is downloading certain files that it doesn't normally download. See these posts in the Fetish forum for more information.

Make sure to not run the EQ2MAP Updater anymore until Zonx puts out a new version of Fetish that addresses the current EQ2MAP Updater changes. Or be prepared to manually replace those files each time you run the EQ2MAP Updater.

If you make the following files readonly the updater will leave them alone
eq2ui_mainhud_map.xml
eq2map\core_menu.xml
eq2map\core_plugins.xml
eq2map\skinnable_Skinnable_Styles.xml
eq2map\skinnable_WindowElements.xml

no it wont leave them alone but instead spit out an error and stop updating alltogether:

so, that does NOT work
btw: to undo said read-only changes navigate to the fetish\eq2maps folder and do "attrib *.* -r" in there. ill stick with manually replacing those 4 files after updating and will now also try what the above poster said

Actually it DOES work.
However, only with the newer versions of the updater. So, make sure you are using the latest version. If you already are there may be a bug that needs to be ironed out in the code, in which case you should post a bug report in the EQ2Map forum, with relevant information like updater and windows versions.
btw: you can also change the attributes of files through the windows explorer (in XP and 2000 atleast, not sure about vista). Open the folder and select the files you want to modify (ctrl-a for all) then right click one of the icons and select properties..

This works great, thanks a lot. I have been having this issue too with the map window converting back to default and it's been driving me bonkers. Great fix here, thanks again

Hail all, I have the latest versions of both autoupdater and fetishnightfall -- everythign works fine, except that my maps sometimes are white, or different than the zone I'm in. Also, the 'standard' icons are not at their proper locations. Also, sometimes the wrong map's poi's show when the correct map comes up for the zone that I'm in. (i.e. in antonica, just came from thundersteppes, thundering steppes map shows with antonica poi's - or vice versa.) closing the map (pressing M) and opening it up again doesn't help.
I read this thread and did these changes, but it didn't help. I still have all the same problems (for example, right now, my map correctly states what zone I'm in, but the map that shows up in the window is a different map). Sometimes there are poi's with it, sometimes not. I've completely reinstalled my ENTIRE GAME. Fresh install for every single file for EQ2, Fetish mod, and EQ2 map mod. These are the only mods I have.
=\
