Default Cartography... ARGGGHHHH

I have 92 -95% on each section, I don't mind the grind, and have seen the suggestions about posting percentages to areas to show what is still needed to complete each zone.
Is there some way to turn of the floating clouds that pass by while looking at the map screen, its so annoying trying to guess whether somthing is clouded over because you haven't been there or is it just clouds. I have also found areas that are clouded over that I know I have been through (bonus areas in Proph) even though I have protector in each of the games.

There is a format called "Texmod". U can download it from wiki. It chages texts on GW of weps and colors and maps and whatever really. Wiki also has a list of mods that u can use in texmod, one of which being a cloud changer. It changes the clouds to a transparent brown or blue color so that you can see what u've missed. It is not a bannable offense to use Texmod, u can read on wiki. If you go the the "Texmod" page on wiki, it will give you the download, the mods, and the requirements.

I hope this helps,
Canto

I don't need help in that regard, my issue is when you press the "m" key to map to another zone or area, there are clouds that partially obscure what ever I'm looking at, they just randomly drift by making the actual detail hard to see.

TexMod will actually color coat the clouds showing which areas still need uncovering, it is quite helpful

Yeah, a percentage would be a nice option.

Use the "u"-map and expand it to fill the whole screen. No clouds or outposts in the way.
