ZrMM - Modified Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 1.17

by: Aoon [More]

Based off of the original ZrMM by Zerorez. Will be updating with fixes and features as time allows.

** Added global functions to support showing/hiding custom pins **
function ZrMM_RegisterCustomPin(pinType, name) - pinType:Number(custom pinType), name:string(friendly name)

function ZrMM_UnregisterCustomPin(pinType) - pinType:Number(custom pinType)

function ZrMM_ExcludePinType(pinType, exclude) - pinType:Number(custom pinType), exclude:Boolean(true to exclude it from the minimap, false to include)

Current feature set:

Resizeable and moveable minimap.
Supports zoom in/out VIA keybind or settings panel
Toggle visibility VIA keybind
Supports displaying worldmap pins(filter and color options carry over)
Supports Group Member real time location in same zone
Configurable anchor position for zoom and zone label
Configurable color text for zoom and zone label
Configurable hide/show zoom and zone label
Select to use camera or player heading for player indicator
Tracks group members position live in same zone

Current features being investigated:

More robust group member tracking
Replace group member pins with imagery that conveys more info(class/role icon? names?)
Border/alpha/round look
Map rotation
Clamp certain pins to map edge

Tech debt:

Investigate existing API functionality
Code restructure/rewrite

v1.17
Added:
function ZrMM_RegisterCustomPin(pinType, name)
function ZrMM_UnregisterCustomPin(pinType)
function ZrMM_ExcludePinType(pinType, exclude) - pinType:Number, exclude:Boolean
These global functions can be used by addon devs to tell ZrMM to not display certain custom pintypes. The register and unregister functions only add to a list currently that I may or may not add configurable options in the minimap itself to toggle visibility. For now ZrMM_ExcludePinType is the method to hide pins.

v1.16
Fix:
Error upon logging in for first time

v1.155
Fix:
Group pins should now update properly without having to open world map
Actual current quest should now be represented/tracked without having to open world map

v1.151
Updated api version

v1.15
Fix:
Anchoring issues in certain transitions(map tiles not aligned properly)
*I forget if there was anything else...*

v1.14
Fix:
Map improperly loading with tiles mismatched or off centered
Map will auto hide if it fails to load a map properly(should fix zones with no map or black worldmap)
Map will center if no player indicator is available(in some zones worlmap does not show player indicator)
Fixed zoomlabel to hide properly when set to hide

Added:
Black background is no longer present
Settings are now global to all characters per account
Added binding to toggle visibility of minimap

v1.13
Fix:
Too many anchors issue
Conflict with incorrect LibAddonMenu-1.0 library

v1.12
Fix:
Cyrodiil map pins from staying on minimap when they should not
map changes when changing floors in areas that have floors
Bindings should work in all languages now(Scharesoft)

Added:
Setting for map to be clamped to screen(EnSabahNur)

v1.11
Fix for startup error with no saved variables present

v1.10
Fix:
Quest blob pins will now be properly sized on minimap(Arpheus)
Rouge group pin under player pin will not show anymore
Stutter issue should be resolved

Technical:
Reworked more functions addon is more event driven for "heavy lifting"
Removed delays for most functions as heavy lifting was separated.

v1.02
Added:
Configurable anchor position for zoom and zone label
Configurable color text for zoom and zone label
Setting to hide zoom label
Can select to use camera or player heading for player indicator
Different zoom levels for dungeons/towns and larger areas(Arpheus)
Map size can now be set in increments of 10 instead of 100(Arpheus)

v1.01:
Fix:
Zoom level not populating label on startup
Zonename showing extra characters for some languages

Added:
Support for color matching of worldmap pins to minimap

v1.0:
Fix:
Cyrodiil map issue
startup errors
group member pins location updating

Added:
Zoom to Settings Panel and and is also in Keybinds

Technical:
Restructured the update flow a bit so we do not load or recreate the map every update
Probably other stuff as well...

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but nothing.

Download this modified version. Extract the zip file. Move the extracted ZrMM folder to:

C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns

I only have this version installed I do not have the original. I do not use minion so I'm not sure the steps to get that working or if it's available with Minion as this is flagged as a patch/optional file for ZrMM

I got it to work now. I had to completely uninstall the game and then reinstall it. I made sure to delete all old files and even cleaned my registry. I read on the comments that some people who upgraded their game client from the beta version to live that it sometimes causes problems and by uninstalling and reinstalling it solves many problems.

Thanks for the advice!

Thanks.

Use this one by itself.

I suggest this go on the information page, maybe a short FAQ list.

did you move over from beta to live? if so you might want to try reinstalling the game one night. i uninstalled and re-installed one night and after that my game worked flawlessly. there is a small hitch but it is not unplayable anymore. seems there is something wrong with the client. try that first. i also have an i7 with lots of ram (14gb) and did all the things you did as well as far as deleting savedvariables.

when I uninstalled, I removed the game with the beta uninstaller, then had to manually delete the folder as it did not have it's own uninstaller. then i ran a "free windows registry repair"

re-installed and let it patch itself overnight. and now everything works fine. I was also having a ton of bugs not related to just this addon that kept causing me to client crash. so it was worth it. might be worth a shot if you don't mind doing it and can do it while you sleep.

EDIT: Seems that the hitching has to do with the number of quests you currently have in your log - or perhaps having to do with having quests in other zones. My main is currently in Shadowfen, and I had a ton of Cyrodiil quests. I abandoned almost all of them and the length of the skip went down a lot. It's still noticeable (for me) but not nearly as bad as before.

I just did that today. Used Revo Uninstaller and did a completely fresh install. Installed only the ZrMM addon and still got hitching. The skip is longer when exiting the big map and isn't as bad when coming out of any other window. Still consider it unplayable for my tastes. Strange thing is i get no hitching at all on freshly created characters. Maybe this has something to do with number of quests I currently have on my main or something - I tried picking up a few quests around the starter city on a fresh character and it's still smooth. Oh well, no minimap for me until someone makes another mod I guess :\

That is weird. I have 13 quests in my journal. 9 of which are cyrodiil, 2 guild, 2 in glenumbra. I'm running around glenumbra spamming worldmap show/hide and have no hitch what so ever.

Doing great work btw.

edit: How come the bugs/features sections are disabled for this addon?

When I first started messing with this addon the largest FPS hit seemed to be due to rebuilding the controls for the map and loading/reloading textures. The next largest hit is probably the drawing of the map. In all my testing when laying idle and running around my fps with and without the addon enabled has a 5 fps range. The baseline fps varies on what area and how much stuff is being drawn. On max settings in a very busy are my fps ranges from 43fps to 48fps with the addon disabled. When I enable it my fps ranges from around 40fps to 45fps.

If you wanted and were comfortable editing lua you could disable parts of the update and do some tests yourself to see if there was any one part of the addon that has the largest hit on fps, but it isn't exact science as your fps generally fluctuates anyways. For fun you could d/l the original and see how large the fps hit is from that version.

The hitching is just confusing as everything is already created at some point while playing and all that is happening is setting position and toggling visibility. Also the fact that other then visibility toggle everything is updating every couple frames minus the pin update which happens every .5 seconds. Since people are only experiencing the stutter/hitching at certain points or events and not all the time and the fact that I am unable to reproduce it makes tracking down the exact cause rather troublesome.

For instance I was running around Cyrodiil this past weekend and had about 18 quests in my log. I was pvping, doing quests, collecting sky shards, gathering materials, and going in and out of solo dungeons and I never once experienced the stutter or hitching being reported.

I do have other addons as well such as most of the other map addons(harvest, skyshards, etc..) since a possible conflict was mentioned a while back and still not encountering it.

I may dick around with this a bit and see if I can find out anything. Let ya know if I get anywhere.

*edit*
Just noticed some sort of blob(white quest area but not quest) in Cyrodiil. The size isn't being scaled properly. They also don't appear to last long, so I'll look into that if I can find them.

Hit a hitch with the fix, kinda short on time at the moment. When I get a solution that works for all cases I'll get it uploaded.

I would suggest, if it is not installing properly via Minion, to download it from here and then do this:
Extract it to any folder then take the subdirectory "ZrMM" and move THAT to: C:\Users\YOURUSERNAMEHERE\Documents\Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns

If you copy over the folder "ZrMM_1.11" and stick THAT inside of the AddOns folder, it will not show up. The folder in the AddOns needs to be the folder inside of "ZrMM_1.11"

Hope you can get it to work. This is assuming you are running Windows 7

that's so weird. my quests haven't changed in between my install and re-install and it worked, guess i got lucky. sorry to hear it didn't work for you.

if you could provide him more info he said that helps. i took a fraps of it and uploaded to youtube along with as much information as i could. sounds like it is one of those things that is really hard to pin down. i will ask, was it always like this or was it a recent thing?

You can move the minimap where you want it, if you want to move the quest tracker you will need one that moves. There are serveral.

Recommend one to me.

I use Wykkd's Quest Tools and you can move that. Just have to go to settings and select to make it moveable
