📋 About This Mod
In the base game the minimap has three different zoom levels: you're inside, outside, or on a boat.
This mod adds new zoom levels for when you're on a horse or in combat, and an additional adjustment when using your witcher senses, and it makes all of those zoom levels configurable.
It also optionally lets zoom levels change in a smooth animation instead of with a jarring instantaneous change like in the base game.
(Configuration Menu not availalbe via Steam Workshop)
Installation
-
[]Drop moddynamicminimapzoom into your mods/ folder to install the mod.
[
]Drop DynamicMinimapZoom.xml into your bin/config/r4game/user_config_matrix/pc/ folder and add it to dx11filelist.txt or dx12filelist.txt to enable the configuration menu. Or simply use Menu Filelist Updater, it's way easier.Conflicts
This mod does not modify any files, it is completely done with annotation-based witcher script, no merges necessary.
However the smooth zooming functionality requires overriding a base game function (CR4HudModuleMinimap2. UpdateZoom), so other mods that also hook into it might be affected.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community trust with 171 endorsements and over 69k downloads

- Smooth zoom animation option is a nice touch for polish
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in April 2025 — might not be compatible with future game patches
- Only affects zoom levels — if you're looking for other minimap tweaks, this won't help
For players who find the default minimap zoom too limited and want more granular control. Also great for UI tweakers who appreciate smooth animations. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla minimap or want a full UI overhaul.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check if your game has a mod manager integration; if not, manually place the files in the correct folder as per the mod's structure.
- If you're using other UI mods, test for conflicts by enabling this mod last.
- Try the smooth animation option in the settings to see if it improves your gameplay experience.
