TrueExploration

Until now you've had some magical atlas with a map for every zone, dungeon and even the daedric planes. Not anymore! With this addon, you have to "draw" your own maps.
Each map will start as an empty piece of paper, but as you travel and explore tamriel, your character will draw everything he/she sees.

This Addon is usefull for exploration fans and completionists, who don't want the exact locations revealed as in Destinations.

This addon is compatible with AUI's minimap and Votan's minimap.

Chat commands (should be used while the world map is opened):
/tedebug 1 activates debug mode
/tedebug 0 deactivates debug mode
While in debug mode, you can "draw" the map with your mouse. left mouse button to discover an area, right button to "forget" it again.

/discover completely discovers the currently displayed map.
/undiscover removed the previously set discovered flag.
/clearmap completely clears the saved data for currently displayed map.

Additionally the view radius and the opaqueness of the undiscovered texture can be set in the addon's menu.
ESC -> Settings -> Addon Settings -> TrueExploration



If you enjoy slow and immersive gameplay, try SlowDialogs.

Completely removes your Player Pin on the map.
Makes it impossible to hover over yourself and see your name on map.
Removes the flashing of your currently location if you have the "VOTAN'S MAP PIN COLORS" addon with option Show Player Pin : OFF
This mini addon is not found on the Minion Program or ESOUI.com, its made by Baertram as a request.
Hide Me

VOTAN'S MAP PIN COLORS

Allows to hide your player pin and allows you to change the color of some built-in map pins to your preferences.

Thanks for this addon!

Could I request support for votan's circular map? It does still make square map inside when circular border is selected.

can we please get an option for it to draw on the highest map layer so it covers up all map pins that are in unexplored areas? it feels so weird having a blank map with no details but yet showing exactly where every town, dungeon, and questgiver is without me ever having been anywhere near them. its even worse if you have extra pin mods like skyshards and lorebooks.

Suggestion: allow enabling/disabling the addon (and maybe different discovery radiuses) for different environments:
- overland
- cities
- interior maps (dungeons etc)

I like the addon a lot when exploring dungeons etc, but find it annoying in towns and cities.

It'd be nice if there was an option to change the layer of the opaque texture covering the map so that pins in unexplored parts of the map don't show on top. Is that possible?

Thanks a lot for this wonderful addon. Never had so much fun before while exploring all Tamriel.

One question though, would it be possible to change the color of the unexplored area within the lua file? Saw some color codes there, but not sure what they are meant for.

Thumbs up Thank you for this addon

Just wanted to thank you for creating this addon. I really enjoy an immersive experience, and this adds the "fog of war" effect I've been looking for. Great work!

Hi! Nice to see your addon is still going strong. I remember when I used in back in 2014 or aroundish. Thank you

I'm getting this after the latest patch:

Warning: Spoiler


I can't open a region on the world map. Happens on every maps region which I try to click open (left mouse) - except where I'm currently located. Any clue or should I start turning off addons one by one.
