📋 About This Mod
Apocrypha Paper Map for FWMF
It's a paper map for Apocrypha worldspace. Made in the same way as Soul Cairn map for FWMF. Hope it will help you to navigate here and will add little bit of immersion. Mod continues series of paper maps for a Flat World Map Framework (FWMF).
Some things to know about this map:
-
[]Apocrypha worldspace, one that is legit for map menu, doesn't cover all the 'books', most of those are standalone dungeons with their own worldspaces. So please don't expect all of those to be shown on the map.[/]
[]Labels for some 'structures' are made up, like The Amphitheater or The Island, lore doesn't have mentions about them.[/]
[]Map texture is 8K, plugin flagged as ESL.[/]
Flat World Map Framework uses mainly vertical look at map, but allows limited inclination and rotation with held right button as well.
MCM in FOMOD and config INI file with comments included in FWMF allows to tune map control (keyboard, mouse and gamepad), possible angles and blur.

Installation
The archive is mod manager compatible.
Install FWMF FOMOD first (Fantasy Paper Maps package preferable). Make sure FMWF is the last in plugins list (only weather fixes or FWMF various patches may be lower), then install this mod normally and place it last in mod order.
Mod goes with config file for Flat Map Markers (FlatMapMarkersSSE.json), that whitelists all worldspaces covered by paper maps, including Apocrypha. Alternatively you can whitelist ECSS in your custom FlatMapMarkersSSE.json by adding this block:
"name": "Apocrypha",
"editorID": "DLC2ApocryphaWorld",
"markerHeight": 180000,
"enabled": true
Version 1. 2 doesn't have custom Flat Map Markers config. If you are using it, make sure config on FWMF FOMOD side has Apocrypha whitelisting block.
Compatibility
SE/AE/GOG compatible (1. 6. 640 including), but be sure to pick your exact Skyrim version during FWMF FOMOD installation.
Not compatible with map mods except FMWF.
Recommended Mods
Atlas Map Markers - Updated with MCM works perfect and smaller markers make map more readable. Just be sure to put Atlas' .esp before FWMF in load order.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (880k) shows it's a go-to for map enthusiasts.
- Lightweight and focused—does exactly what it says without bloat.
- Endorsement ratio is solid (1.2k), meaning players actually like it.
⚠️ Cons
- Only affects Apocrypha—if you want other realms changed, you'll need more mods.
- Requires FWMF to work, so it's not standalone.
- No screenshots or extra details in the description—you're flying blind until you test it.
For Skyrim players who use FWMF and want a consistent paper-map look across all realms. Perfect for lore-friendly immersion buffs who hate the default 3D map. Skip if you don't use FWMF or prefer the vanilla map style.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure FWMF is installed first, then drop this mod in your mod manager and enable it.
- Load order doesn't matter much for UI mods, but keep it after FWMF to ensure the paper map overrides.
- If you don't see the change, double-check that FWMF is active and that you're viewing the Apocrypha map specifically.
