That map texture looks like you're using a no-fog mod alongside the carto mod. I've never made a transparent version of the mod, so it's either a mod conflict, or you downloaded someones custom version.

Ok so I'm now using the "cartography made easy" to get my cart title. (third time so I'm doing it the easy way now :P) and for some reason I can't seem to open this small area between the Great northern Wall and Piken Square. Any ideas on how to open this?

Hoping I posted this in the right place

It's been several years since having done the cartographer titles, so I'm a little rusty.
Anyway, no offense if you have, but have you mapped all around inside the mission itself?

Ok, so the only place I can think that would include that area is the Great Northern Wall mission. Here's what you do:

Bring both running and survival skills. Obviously, survival is easier if you're lvl 20 and doing the mission in NM.
Do the mission up until the cutscene, after which you have to run from the advancing Charr army. You can just run past everything.
Start running along the path back to Capt Calhaan (as per the normal mission path). Use as many speed boosts as you can to both avoid the enemies and to buy yourself time for later.
You'll cross one long bridge, and then enter a little "mountain" pass (or "hill" pass, really).
On the other side of the pass, there's another bridge. At the other side of this bridge is a large gate and the Wall. Don't go across the bridge!
Instead, turn right. You should see a medium-large group of Charrs running towards you (it's there to kill any players that are too slow in getting to the end of the mission).
Run past the Charrs, down the dirt ramp they're standing on, and just start exploring that area. Be sure to hit the tan-colored area to the south of that ramp.
Be aware that this needs to be done quickly, as the timer is still running while you do this, and the mission will fail when the timer reaches 0.

Hope that helps! Also, if you cannot get the area, be aware that each continent - Tyria included - has a pretty sizeable amount of leeway as far as its carto titles. In other words, the actual explorable area of each map is something like 102-105%. I managed to get 100% exploration on Tyria on one character with a whole half of Perdition Rock unexplored!

if memory serves.
it is part of the mission
you have to go right before the last bridge to get to it....there is a hoard of char coming that way (so I brought some heroes to give me time to get around)....and the screen shows where to stand to hit it.

I managed to get it. It was partly in the mission like others stated (thank you) and the other part was actually just outside old ascalon up the stairs near the gargoyles lol. Sometimes it's the simplest of things you overlook.

Thanks again everyone for the help.

get to the Falls area? Seems I must have died during the mission, and missed the whole area, while team-mates ran to the cutscene... And now I can't get to it, neither repeat the quest, so now I miss a big chunk of area.

The Falls isn't a mission. Perhaps you're getting confused with The Wilds? In any case, missions can be repeated as many times as you want. Just go back to the outpost and click the Enter Mission button. You don't need to redo the quests that lead up to it (in fact, you don't need to do them at all). Generally speaking, you can't cut yourself off from exploring certain areas. Only the low level arenas and the tutorial area of Nightfall has limited access.
