Need help with scaling back view of mini map screen - Guild Wars Forums

mdr55 · Jul 16, 2008, 04:57 AM // 04:57

Usually when I play I press "U" for the mini map screen to come up as it normally does and set it up to the left of my screen.

But I think I pressed something so when I do the same thing (press "U") for the mini map to come up it comes up but the size/view is BIGGER sort of looking through a magnifying glass.

What can I do to get it back to the regular size?

Thanks

Press U, put your mouse on the opened map, and move your scroll wheel towards you.

Ooh, that's helpful. I've had the same problem for AGES and didn't realize it could be fixed. Thanks.

That is kind of mandatory information for playing AB. You should always zoom out the U map as far as it goes so that you can see all the shrines at the same time. However, for whatever reason, every time you enter an AB match (or Fort Aspenwood or Jade Quarry) the map autozooms in to a silly level, and it will stay that way until you adjust it manually or log off. That may have caused the problem in OP.

Or, to put it another way - put your cursor on the U map and zoom in and out with the scroll wheel.
