TR WorldMaps v1.1 

These are in-game worldmaps for Morroblivion featuring the additional lands from Tamriel Rebuilt.  They will work perfectly even if Tamriel Rebuilt is not installed (if you're interested in learning how to install it, look here).  There are two maps with two different resolutions each.  The "Satellite" map uses color maps and normal maps to simulate a 3D terrain view.  The "InkPen" map uses an inkpen-styled outline with some coloring and normal maps applied with a simulated paint effect.  The regular versions are 2048x2048 (same as the vanilla Morroblivion worlmap) and HD versions are 4096x4096.  

I made them using the LOD color- and normal-maps generated by MPGUI/TES4LL/TES4qLOD with help from the TES4Edit script "Worldspace browser.pas" to stitch them together into one bitmap.  Further image manipulation done with GIMP.  GIMP data file is available upon request.  

Installation:
I recommend using Wrye Bash or Nexus Mod Manager to install the mod so you can conveniently uninstall it as needed.  The mod will intall 4 texture files and 4 ESPs into the Data subdirectories.  Activate one of the four ESPs and make sure the Load Order is near the bottom, after anything that modifies the exterior worldspace/lands/objects.  

Recommended:
Get the Dynamic Map mod so you can zoom in and out: http://www.nexusmods.com/oblivion/mods/35969/?

I love this mod. I'm using the TRWorldMapSatelliteHD.esp. It was fun zooming in and around and finding the smiley faces. [External image]

Awesome, thanks!  I love those Smileys too!  But I can't take credit for them -- those are Easter Eggs by the Tamriel Rebuilt landscapers. [External image]  Obviously, the only choice was to keep them in there when making the map.

I posted version 1.1:  It adds full mipmap levels to the dds map files.  This fixes a bug where the map displayed a garbage checkered pattern unless high quality level was set in the Oblivion Launcher.  A side benefit is a significant performance increase when opening the worldmap!

Very nice. I'll try this new texture out.

I would love to see a Version of the Morrowind Map that looks like the Oblivion map.

Here are two additional maps: one is a performance optimized version of Yali's map based on the Morrowind Poster, and the second is a version of the Satellite map overlayed on top of a version of the Tamriel Rebuilt made by Atrayonis.  All credits/rights to their original creators.  Please contact me if you wish for me to remove any content that was created by you.
