Map Not Showing Location Correctly

[DirtyBongWater]

When I am in first person veiw the map does not show the right location I am currently at. I am in the lower part of the map and the map says I am at Far's Peak.

Mine's been doing the same since this last update.
It doesn't even show the crappy arrow anymore.

Freakin' BUMP.

Hello.
I have the same problem. I just see the word "Me" in the midle of the map wherever I am in game.

Open the map and then go to third person free cam. You see the word "ME" in the air behind you. This has been a bug since the start but never fixed.

The map has NEVER been right, The marker has always been off by a considerable amount, especially since Ragnarok was launched.

The last patch broke it so that it does not show the thumbtack anymore. The "me" does not correlate to your location either. At least not in my game.

For me, the map has always shown both "Me" AND the pointer, and both have moved along the map as I moved along the map and stayed relatively near my actual position.
Only now, the "Me" is way wrong and the pointer no longer exists.

the same thing has been happening to me. it's super frustrating since i can't see where i am. : (

Same here, is there anything we can do to fix this? Maybe an ini tweak or something else in the game's files?

If the map was too good, I guess there would be no need for a GPS. Would be nice tho, that if you had a GPS on your toon, the map was more exact. So instead of of large marker (which is way off) you get a exact marker (small but the exact XYZ location)

I say disable the map except for the one you draw yourself.

I would curse it at first too, but it would make a better game experience.

A majority of the servers I've played on, the map pin is disabled. I prefer that. Uncover the map with exploration, and then use it for reference with a GPS for hard coordinates.

Just as I was about to point out, the map pin isn't even a guaranteed thing. It's an option given to the server hosts (and single players), if they want to use it or keep it out and force you to use GPS.
There is GPS, yes. It's cool to use. It's neat and all. But there's also the option of using the pin.
Having an option doesn't make the game easier, better or worse -- your use of that option is what determines that for you.
Personally, I prefer to use the pointer and wish it was an arrow and not crappy thumbtack. I do however like to remove it and play the game with harder settings, sometimes, for a change in pace.

Regardless, this option is now BROKEN and that's the issue at hand here.
It's just too bad the developers won't notice or read this. :l
