Question.
What's the best method/how would one go about looking up the positions/coordinations needed for map.inis? I noticed Kamihr's is off by a bit and threw me when exploring the zone for the first time.

Viertel, I haven't touched any map.ini files so I'm not sure. Sorry!
Thank you Schliematt, I got the files just fine. Looking into them now.

Another mining point in Kamihr Drifts at H-6 in the tunnel. Entering the tunnel from the south entrance you will find the Mining Point on your right in the exact point where the tunnel starts a "turn".

Working on the FFXIDB plugin atm, and I noticed that the Yorcia Weald map is displaying lower than it should be. This is happening in both FFXIDB and on the FFXI client itself. The client's markers are tied to the actual pixels of the image itself, so they show in the right place on the game client. Just wondering if we know why that map (and possibly others) are displaying incorrectly.

It's been a busy time for me folks, planning my wedding and working overtime, etc. I'll save out these updates for now and get them up here tonight or tomorrow.
banggugyangu, was this related to the map issues from other areas? It sounds like the same problem. I haven't been there to see them myself, but I think someone explained the issue. I think someone had to edit the map to get it to line up correctly.

I explained it earlier.
SE released a bugged map.
So people released a custom dat to "fix" the position on map so it would correspond to the real position of players.
After some time SE fixed the issue but the custom dat never got fixed with the result that it's now off from where it should be.
If you use default SE maps for Yorcia you'll be fine.
Or wait until someone creates a new Yorcia Map starting from zero and not from the previous (now bugged) custom dats.

Well I have no idea how this happened, but all of my Photoshop save files are gone, even the ones I had backed up on my external. It's incredibly dumb because I still have all of the .bmp and .jpg files I was using and referencing. No one uses this computer other than me... Ugh, what a nightmare, and a headache.
I guess now would be a good time for optimizing what I had and cleaning up stuff, start fresh. Sorry everyone, I know this project has been on the back burner.
I want to incorporate some new things this time around. I'll try and make a new map soon. Don't let this stop anyone from sending information though, you all have been incredibly helpful.

i poisted this in another topic but was suggested to post here.
I could not find a fairly acurate map of Yorcia Weald so i decided to map out the path as accurate as i could. I tried adding in icons etc but when i added it to the DAT it looked horrible.
anyways here is the very accurate map of Yorcia Weald without icons ect. Could somone add in the icons to make it complete?

Ok so we have XI Vision and This thread.. which one is the one to use for map dats now? Kinda lost but would be surprised if no one is using maps in game now?
