Map not corresponding with buildings around
So I recently installed the mods from the collection using a fresh game and followed the directions given and it's been working fine but I've noticed that when I look in the map using M, it doesn't look like what's around me and after checking the map link I've noticed that my in-game map is broken.

https://i.imgur.com/SrHtc93.png This is what my map looks like and this is what the map link shows https://i.imgur.com/qbV0nir.png

If there's something that can be done to fix this or if you need more screenshots let me know and I'll pop them in.

Do you remember the exact spawn point you chose? Was it Ekron?

I believe so yeah, Ekron is placed where my section of map is showing in my game

Thank you, I've figured out what caused this. The IngameMaps mod got bumped down a little too much, to a point where it loaded after the modded locations, which means it tries to override the map with the higher detail vanilla map (which only affects the map you see when pressing "M"). Simply moving both IngameMap modules above the actual modded locations fixed this for me.

I will replace the current saved modlists file with the fixed version when I get the chance, wouldn't have even noticed without you so thanks!

Not sure if I'm doing something wrong but I've changed out my modlist for the new one and still have the same issue, I've even made a new solo game to see if I had to start over and it still happened on that one too.

Grab the file I just uploaded OR change the load order manually - Move "IngameMaps [Vanilla]" and "... [Main]" UP so they load before the actual map mods, in my file they load right after Common Sense.

I've done this just now and still doesn't seem to be working. I'll just use the website map to plan any exploring. Thanks for the help though and hopefully it helped others!

Could you try sorting the map priority order like so please?

I think this might be the missing piece.

Sadly didn't help. I've tried moving the main and vanilla around the load order and still nothing :/

i have the same issue

Do try the methods I've outlined to see if that helps. For the next version (mini-patch) I'll do another pass to make sure the map is displayed the same way for everyone.
