Minimap

Hi,

For a few weeks now, I've had the problem that I can only see the minimap but no tanks on it, even though I haven't changed anything. Is there a specific setting that can bring the minimap back to life?

Here are the settings for WoT

I performed the game repair, started the game, and still encountered the same error in the game where no tanks are displayed on the minimap and the circles are not shown. I assume this can only be the XVM issue, correct?

I doubt there is any issue with mods, otherwise more people would report it, I guess it's just you and settings. However if you want me to check anything, I need logs, see my post signature, also show a screenshot from your battle, so I know what it looks like.

I have now uninstalled XVM and Aslains Modpack and had the game checked/repaired. The minimap remains the same and I cannot turn it off even when I press the letter “M.”
I'm really at a loss.

I can only send you the Python log because I only have the game itself at the moment. Could it be that it's an XVM setting that overwrites the map and makes it unusable? You can't even make the map disappear in the game, which is strange.

According to that logs you don't have mods installed. Are you even using my modpack? I see errors regarding the minimap. If you have such errors without mods and game repair didn't help then you should contact WG support.

 

I would reinstall the game, then mods.

Okay, where do you find the error for the minimap?

I've been using your modpack for a few years and uninstalled it on a trial basis so I could narrow down the error with the minimap, but apparently it's still there even without mods 😞

Edit:
I'm currently reinstalling the game and will report back.

After reinstalling the game, the minimap worked again (completely new without preferences.xml). When I used the old preferences.xml again, the minimap was back to how it was before, i.e. broken as shown in the picture above. Now that I've reinstalled your modpack, the minimap continues to work 🙂

Who knows what settings were causing the problem there?

I had the problem with some mod - but i don't not which mod.

My solution
If the problem happens, I delete <minimapHintSection> and <trajectoryViewHint> entrys
from C:\Users\MyUserNameIsNotyourUserName\AppData\Roaming/Wargaming.net/WorldOfTanks/preferences.xml 

afterwards the minimap was fixed on my PC.

scripting like this
cd C:\Users\MyUserNameIsNotyourUserName\AppData\Roaming/Wargaming.net/WorldOfTanks/
# Both entrys are not i a new installed WoT Client.
grep -v -e "<minimapHintSection> .* </minimapHintSection>" <preferences.xml  >preferences.new.xml
grep -v -e "<trajectoryViewHint> .* </trajectoryViewHint>" <preferences.new.xml  >preferences.xml
