Votan's Minimap  Popular! (More than 5000 hits)
Version: 2.0.7
by: votan [More]
DependenciesDescription
This addon reactivates the mini map from ZOS. Thus the mini map does not do less, but also not more than the built-in world map, because it is the built-in world map.

No artificial synchronization of (custom) pins between mini map and world map. All kind of pins are supported by design.
But also no border pins or rotation mode and such features. My mini map is intended to be lightweight and fast.
  • Includes world map performance tweaks, which can be disabled for performance comparison.
    The tweaks changing the pin rendering to utilize the CPU up to a framerate of 75 only. Seeing the pins rendered over time is not a sign of overload of this addon, but a compensation of others.
  • Conflicts with other mini maps can be expected. Therefore the mini map can be disabled to use the tweaks only.
  • I do not recommend to use the AUI mini map module at the same time as mine.
  • Gamepad support, but limited due to lines in ZOS source code, they call a "total hack" themself:
    Positioning and resizing in keyboard mode only.
  • The window is resizable via mouse. (this code is written by ZOS, not me)

If you think you need a full-featured mini map try the MiniMap by Fyrakin.

@Shinni did a great job creating a plug-in for a Circular Votan's Mini Map.
And if you want to show group pins in different colors and/or icons, such as showing a different color for dead players, you may want to use Votan's Group Pins.

Providing a mini map can be an unthankful job. I guess Fyrakin could sing a song or two. Therefore I can't resist to say:
The addon works well for me. Otherwise I would not have released it. If you think you have performance problems due to this addon, help tracking down or stop using.
Frame freezes are most likely coming from an addon providing a lot of pins without taking care about creating even a simple pin takes some time multiplied by hundreds.
In this case the author of that addon can make it more mini map friendly, only.

Thanks to @scootworks, @Anceane and @Drakanwulf for testing

Remarks
  • There are key-bindings to toggle the mini map on/off. For technical reasons the toggle while at siege weapons needs its own key-binding. But you can re-use the same key.
  • If you feel dissatisfied with the second main menu entry for "Addons", take a look at Harven's AS to LAM adapter.
  • In order to move or resize the window, you need to go to the mouse-cursor mode. You can do this by pressing the key-bind for mouse-cursor mode, which is "." (dot) by default. Or you press "Enter" as if you want to start chatting.
    Once you have the mouse pointer you can drag the window with the title-bar and bottom-bar. Or resize it using the border. The mouse pointer will change. Like in Windows. (And I guess MAC, too )

New Feature?

Can ya add a scale to the map pins?
The main map scale is perfect at that zoom level, but in the mini map they are even smaller.
I found "unitPinScaleLimit" set that to mac 2 but that just makes your arrow larger.
Still looking for the code that handles the pins, and hope find a scale factor I can tweak.

But if ya could add it as a slider in the UI, that'd be sweet.

Update: It seems to happen when I have minimap hidden normally but visible when mounted. If I have it already on then mount/dismount it doesn't happen.

----
I've been having a strange issue that I *think* is related to VMM or a library it uses; at least I can reproduce it with only VMM loaded. I also didn't see any recent posts reporting anything like this.

I began noticing that when I first ran to a wayshrine and used it, when I selected another wayshrine to port to, it wanted to charge me like I just opened my map and clicked on a wayshrine. If I close this dialog then open the map again it works normally.

I'm able to reproduce the problem by mounting, dismounting, then opening the wayshrine.

I narrowed down the addons until only VMM was left and I am able to reproduce this problem. I cannot reproduce this if all other addons are loaded but not VMM.

Here is an example. I am at the wayshrine in Wayrest. I mounted, dismounted, then clicked on the wayshrine. As you can see, when I select another wayshrine it wants to charge. If I do select to port then it begins the porting animation just like I opened the map and clicked. Thank you for your help!

Question Error at crafting station, when deconstructing:

I was getting a LibAsync error within this addon when deconstructing at a crafting station. So I tried LibAsync standalone (renamed the LibAsync folder within your addon), got the same error:
Code:
user:/AddOns/LibAsync/LibAsync.lua:35: user:/AddOns/RulebasedInventory/Modules/ActionExecution.lua:286: operator + is not supported for nil + number

It's easily dismissed, and doesn't always recur. (I've also posted this error under LibAsync.) Not a show-stopper; just annoying.

I think recently Zenimax implemented the ability to switch map levels easier when in gamepad mode using LB/L1 and RB/R1 (depending on what controller you use). They appended a UI element to the bottom of the gamepad interface's world map (a string and button images) that is now showing up on the bottom of your minimap when in gamepad mode (everything works fine in keyboard+mouse mode).

The result is a non-square minimap that doesn't appear to respect the boundaries you intended for it (overlaps with other things) with the aforementioned UI element attached to the bottom.

Here is a screenshot showing what I'm describing. As you can see, the recently added UI element by Zenimax seems to interfere with how your addon constructs the minimap from the official world map scene.

Is this something you could easily fix? Your minimap is better than Fyrakin's, imo, and unfortunately right now a lot of gamepad users are unable to use your addon.
Which version did you revert to? I'm sure I already tried earlier versions with no success at getting rid of this "LB/RB SWITCH LEVEL" thing.

EDIT: Yes. I just went back and confirmed that trying the last 4-5 versions before the current one don't remove this UI element. I think maybe you were testing it in Keyboard+Mouse mode.

And you say it isn't problem caused by Zenimax, but I think you are wrong. This "Switch Level" thing was recently introduced to the Gamepad UI, and it is displayed under the map in the world map scene. I think Votan's addon is compositing his minimap from this scene and is accidentally lifting the new UI element during minimap construction.

How do we revert to previous version? I use Minion & it auto updates.

Hi. Srry for takin minute to get back to you. Thnx for the suggested fix Votan. However, upon checking my minimap was already in 'keep square' mode. I use the Circular addon that complements your minimap. Upon further tinkering tho I notiuced in M&K mode it never happens. Goin into inventory or other menus, etc never alters the m,ap. It's when Im in controller mode (I use a Steam Controller ) that the issue happens. The m,ap is fine upon 1st loading the game but as soon as I go into my inventory the thing happens. Only while using the circular overlay in controller mode. I even tried resizing it but seeing as the issue doesnt happen at all in M&K I'm thinking it's something to do with how it handles gamepad mode or something? Idk.

If I hit WINDOWS button or alt+tab to desktop n go back to the game the minimap is fine until I press select again to open the world map.
Hm. Never seen, yet. Everywhere or specific location?
