you sure? I coulda sworn I had the radar turn green with a map in upper left...

The game generates a new compass file from a reference image when you move. Therefore it's impossible to mod.

I'm not 100% sure, but it's definitely in the dat file somewhere.

The only issue is, because TexEdit works by intercepting DirectX calls, we won't be able to edit that source file (with TexEdit at least), since it never actually gets sent to the graphics card.

I've done quite a bit of modding and mapping, and have always loved it. I feel GW should be one of those games, especially with ONE data file, that should have a third party archive explorer.

About the Unreal Tournament sounds, I thought that was legit because the mod was a .dll file accessed outside GW, and not a modification to the Gw.dat file itself.

An idea...somebody take references from old screenshots of the Prophecies interface and remake it!

Of course there will be some complications, namely things implemented after its "termination" such as the hero portraits.

All the mods really should be "stored" somewhere. I mean that there should be place where is links for all mods.

I've done some modding on my own, but it's really amateur and nothing good looking, but fun to do

EDIT: Removed Image to save bandwith. Can still be found on this thread.

Also, is there a way to remove the blackness in Torment/FoW/UW/SF/etc...?

MrPanda at GWO is working on it already, imho

(not only prohecies are problems, quest dependant spawns too.)

hey I tried this mod for exploring Cantha but now I'm at 99% and no idea of where to go.
made a little mod of my own using the same concept as zweinstein, but with all the objects on the map invisible.
I was hoping someone here with 100% could try it out and take a screen, comparing both maps should be much easier now, giving the exact places left to explore using photoshop tools.

The mod is here, make sure you got GW to a 1024x768 resolution:

from what i could google all had 51085CD5 and when those get tested by http://virusscan.jotti.org/ http://www.virustotal.com/ they are quite infested by malvare (Trojan-PWS.Win32.Agent.BU it says)
..

texmod.exe is packed with nspack and some (retarded) antivir programs blacklist packers, this is why it shows false detection

I'm creating a mod with chest spawn locations for Old Ascalon as ppl use that area quite a bit to raise their lucky title.
