Annoyed with New World's lack of minimap, two players built their own
https://www.pcgamer.com/uk/annoyed-with-new-worlds-lack-of-minimap-two-players-built-their-own/
As far as MMO interfaces go, New World's is remarkably sparse. But while getting rid of stacks of ability hotbars is a welcome change, replacing the genre-standard minimap with a Skyrim-style compass has left some players longing for more traditional navigation tools.
With that in mind, two players went ahead and built their own minimap themselves.
Spotted by GameRant, Redditor Morbrid and their friend built their own minimap that effectively shows a portion of the game's standard map within a small portion of the screen at all times, removing the hassle of having to open up the main map itself. It appears fully functional, showing the location of vendors, resource nodes and letting you zoom in and out at will.
>> You can download it through Overwolf.
