Why this mod is included into baseline STEP, but the mod required for this mod - High Quality 3D Map - is not included?

[TechAngel85]

3D Map is in STEP. In the Interface section.

If I use the Medium Meshes version "High Quality 3D Map", should I use the HiRes Quality World Map or just the Quality World Map?

 

Or should I just get the HiRes Meshes version of "High Quality 3D Map"? Is there too much of a FPS hit?

How do I get rid of the clouds and/or fog in the world map and how do I zoom in a lot more?  I can't remember where I've seen these options...  Anyone?

[CJ2311]

For the clouds it's an option in this mod's installer. The zoom used to be controlled by some ini tweaks, but I don't know if it still is after the 1.8 update...

[ShadowNirvana]

STEP does say "DON'T use the clear map addon" though.

[phazer11]

Well if you don't like the clouds install the clear map add-on, it's just not the STEP recommended option.

To "unlock" the map limits so I can zoom further in/out, I've use a mod called EzEs - Remove 3D Map Camera Limits, because those limits can't be controlled by .ini settings any more.

 

Even if you don't decide to use it, the mod's main page lists all the .ini tweaks.

Is there a reason we don't follow SparrowPrinces recommendations regarding Quality World Map overriding EDT and EDT2?

Just asking as I'm trying to figure out where Ruffled Feathers should go in the load order, and wondering if maybe this recommendation was missed somewhere along the way.

[TechAngel85]

I'm sure there is a reason but it's been so long I can't remember. EDT only overwrites one file from EDT2 though so only EDT2 and Quality World Map have actual conflicts.

[Xaviien]

Yeah, I see you are correct.

 

The order of all related mods seems to have been extensively discussed in the EDT2 thread.

[EssArrBee]

Hey this mod just got a DB addon. Someone should check it out and see if it is worth adding.

[TechAngel85]

Guess I'll be updating the EDT file this weekend.

Installation instructions should be edited in the STEP guide to explain installer procedure for version 8.4 (current instructions are now outdated).
