Missing Quest Markers On Map and Compass
So, since One Tamriel, 3 out of 4 of my characters can't see quest markers anymore, neither in the map or the compass-thing located in the upper side of the screen. If I open the map it also says there's not quests available in the area, but they do appear in the quest log. The 4th character seems to work, but that's just probably because I made him after One Tamriel came out.

I play vanilla, no add-ons or anything. Any solution to this?

Same problem. Thought it might be an add-on out of date, but if you play vanilla its a bug.

I can't tell even which area I am supposed to go to for half of them if it doesn't' say exactly where. I have to turn things in and the arrow doesn't apperar over the guy until I am standing right in front of him. It says return to the guy and it is part of the quest. Then the arrow pops up over his head to talk to him after iI walk 2 feet fro him. LOL

So if you don't remember where the quest giver is you are pretty much screwed.

also, another solution i was given in-game, it was to change the usersettings.txt file, more concretely

SET RequestedNumJobThreads and SET RequestedNumWorkerThreads, both having the value "-1" should work.

the problem? i already had them set to -1. and it still didnt work.

There are tons of bugs. Do you get UI error pop ups constantly too? I get them almost every time I move to a new area. Not a new map, just a newly named area int he same map.

There will be more down time this week I'm sure to patch this stuff. Probalby tonight unless they are going to wait until next week during maintenance. Surprised they don't need to hotfix anything yet.

I did this, and it did nothing. I've had a ♥♥♥♥ ton of errors ever since 1T dropped.
No quest markers, half my spells don't show up, using dark flare for some odd reason won't make healthbars go down even though it definitely hurts them, sometimes in a dungeon healthbars get stuck bellow full health regardless of the fact that everyone is full health, sometimes when I die I can't revive for no apparent reason, sometimes when other people die they stay a corpse even after they revive and I still get the option to revive them (though of course it doesn't work).
To make matters worse, I've been stuck in a loading screen for 10+ minutes now after adjusting some settings to try and get my spells to show up.

Most of those issues are hell for me because I main a healer. Seriously, I hope they do a bugfix soon, because the game is nearly unplayable for me right now. At least in anything combat related.

how long would this take?

UPDATE: it seems i only see quest markers when im very close to the location (very close as in i can pretty much see it on the map anyway), and even then it just shows up on the compass, not even in the map. the map keeps saying i have no quests there.

last night it finally worked for me. the markers in the compass now only show up if youre close, but they do always show up in the map. so i guess its intentional.

Nope I can see them on the compass even if I am far away. They definitely tried to fix it in last patch but it didn't work for everyone. One of my friends has the same problem, he can see them on map, nut not on the compass, only he is close can see them.
