Anyone else experience this also?

You are correct, the new InfoMap will not work in Drox 2.2.0. If there's a problem with the group loot options, that sounds like something you need to ask Drox about.

Okay... I have amended the installation instructions on my website a little bit, and added a couple more notes. And I've added an attention-grabbing line for the DroxUI users out there hehe. Let's see if that helps.

Cool, thanks!

I really like Drox's and yours / Cobal's stuff.

Why isn't this included in DroxUI as standard?...just crurious.

When Drox made his latest update (2.2.1 I think) this was not released as of yet.

He will probably include it when he does his next update.

For the life of me I can't get the minimap to work in either Drox or as a standalone (with this mod loaded and nothing more). The map itself works fine. The minimap absolutely refuses to appear. In Drox, the minimap outright vanished when I crashed the other day and restarted. Since then no matter what I've tried to do (I've done a full reinstall of Drox and this mod, and tried this mod as just a standalone) the minimap won't appear. Otherwise, this is a fantastic mod. I love the ton of detail I can bring up when I feel like harvesting. I just wish the minimap would work.

EDIT: After MUCH beating and kicking of the mod folders, I got this to work. Fantastic work, despite my initial problems.

Hi all. I just re-subscribed and this is the first UI mod I have attempted for VG. The issue I am having is that when I go into my vgclient.ini, modify it and then try to save, Vista isn't allowing me saying that it is an incorrect path/file name. Any ideas? And thanks in advance.

Do a systemwide search for vgclient.ini and see if vista has made a 2nd copy of it somewhere that its going to allow you to edit.

You can also try turning off UAC

Thanks a bunch. Will try it out tonight.

Glad you got it sorted out.

I currently use DroxUI myself. The only beating and kicking I ever had to do was with the old DroxUI v2.2.0 because it wasn't compatible with the map standards. But with DroxUI v2.2.1 InfoMap just drops easy, it's a piece of cake for most people.

Do you know exactly what was causing the problem for you? Was it some confusion over what to do, or a clash with another part of your Vanguard or Drox setup? Feedback from the people who have struggled with it would be very useful, maybe I can add more notes to the installation instructions to help others in the future.

So, you were able to InfoMap to work with Drox properly? if so, I'm wondering what I'm doing so differently.
