[]Here is a note regarding ENB from user mfjade (thanks for helping):
"for all the enb users:
At the enblocal.ini I set the Key for KeyCombination=0 and KeyUseEffect=77
If i press "m" now the Map appears and ENB is disabled. If I press the "m" key again ENB activates and the map disappears."

[]Here's a note from user shaiwan regarding some users experiencing the zoom/pitch bug: (thanks for helping):
"I would like to share with the community a solution for the zoom/pitch bug that many have experienced with this map.
IF you are using SkyProcPatcher, dual sheath redux or similar, and you CHANGE any mod in your load order, especially if you decide to remove an .esp, THEN it can cause this map to not function properly. You may experience high zoom in your face and pitch angle problem.
Solution: Run BOSS, THEN skyprocpatcher (create new patch), then place this mod at the bottom of load order and viola, your map is fixed."
- []When using Sky UI, you may get the "SKY UI Error Code 5". This is because my mod edits the map.swf, as does SkyUI. To disable this error message, do the following:
- []As far as I am aware, this mod does not need to be cleaned.
- []This mod needs to be at the bottom of the load order.
[]The ini provided should not be altered, or the mod may not work properly. The zoom level

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 22,226 endorsements and 1.1M downloads
- Simple visual upgrade that makes the map look way better
- Lightweight and doesn't touch gameplay
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2013 – might not be compatible with the latest Skyrim version or mods
- Only changes the map texture – no other UI improvements

💡 Beginner Tips
- Since it's a texture replacer, just drop the files into your Data folder or use a mod manager – no load order worries.
- If you use other map mods, make sure this one loads after them to override the texture.
- Check if your Skyrim version is pre-Special Edition, as this mod is from 2013 and may not work with SSE without conversion.
