Mega Minimap

• Description:

This mod increases the size of the minimap and zooms out so more of the map can be seen.

• Requirements:

The mod was built with Ultimate ASI Loader v9. 7. 2 in mind. But the latest version should work. (If not try version 9. 7. 2)

This mod is ONLY for the 64bit version of Grim Dawn. If the minimap looks strange or broken, make sure you are running the 64bit version. It should say, "(x64)" after the version number on the main menu in the bottom right corner.

This mod is ONLY for the Steam version of Grim Dawn. It does not work for the GOG version.

• Installation Instructions:

Download the 64bit version of dinput8.dll from the Ultimate ASI Loader repo.

Place dinput8.dll in the same folder as the 64bit Grim Dawn.exe:

steamapps/common/Grim Dawn/x64/MegaMiniMapMod.asi goes in that same folder.

Finally, place the settings folder in the Grim Dawn root directory:

steamapps/common/Grim Dawn/settings

SteamOS/Linux:

If you are playing on Linux the game may not open unless you use the "Compatability Mode (SteamOS/Linux)" launch option. This runs the exe from the steamapps/common/Grim Dawn/compat folder instead of the x64 folder. If you are using this launch option you must install dinput8.dll and MegaMiniMapMod.asi to the compat folder instead of the x64 folder.

Under Proton, dinput8.dll may not be loaded automatically. If the mod does not load, add the following launch option in Steam:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command%If you need to you can also add the typical Grim Dawn arguments, such as disabling DLC, after the %command%

Here is an example:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command% /nogdx1 /nogdx2

• Known Issues:

Black Squares: Unloaded chunks will sometimes show as black squares on the minimap.

Fog of War: The unloaded areas, normally shown as grey on the main map, are shown as already loaded in the minimap. (Unexplored areas are still black.) This is just how Grim Dawn's minimap has always worked. It's just too small to notice in vanilla Grim Dawn.

Icons: Icon scaling is sometimes wrong. And the distance at which they appear is farther than it should be. This can be annoying for new players who want to discover things for themselves.

These issues may be fixed in a future update.
