Markarth Paper Map by Mirhayasu for FWMF

Updated map with background (from 06.01.2023) requires a patch (in Files), if you use SSE Engine Fixes. If you have custom config for SSE Engine Fixes, just make BSLightingShaderForceAlphaTest false (this may disable LOD reflection fix, but let the map be properly rendered). In case of issues previous version with plain black background available in older files as well as version with different workaround (not tested thoroughly tho).

It is a first paper map for Markarth, drawn by Mirhayasu. Hope it will help you to navigate here and will add little bit of immersion. Mod continues series of paper maps for a Flat World Map Framework (FWMF).

Some things to know about this one:

  • Markarth is tiny comparing to its worldspace, so camera control in Map Menu for this area may be oversensitive. If it bothers you, use careful edge-panning with mouse or lower either fMapWorldMaxPanSpeed or fMapMoveKeyboardSpeed in FWMF config ini file, that will reduce pan speed for KB/mouse (but keep in mind those values are global, so it slows panning on Skyrim map).
  • Since Markarth with all its markers are in his own worldspace now, I've added global markers for fast-traveling from/to the city.
  • Plugin is ESP flagged as ESL this time.




Flat World Map Framework uses mainly vertical look at map, but allows limited inclination and rotation with held right button as well.
INI file with comments included in FWMF allows to tune map control (keyboard, mouse and gamepad), possible angles and blur.

Requirements
Installation
The archive is mod manager compatible.

Install FWMF FOMOD first (Fantasy Paper Maps package preferable). Make sure FMWF is the last in plugins list (only weather fixes or FWMF various patches may be lower), then install this mod normally and place it last in mod order.

Make sure Flat Map Markers config file (FlatMapMarkersSSE.json) has this part:

},
{
"name": "Markarth",
"editorID": "MarkarthWorld",
"markerHeight": 180000,
"enabled": true
}

Compatibility 
Compatible - SE/AE/GOG  (1.6.640 including), but be sure to pick your exact Skyrim version during FWMF FOMOD installation.
Not compatible - any map mods except FMWF.
Mods that modify Markarth worldspace may possibly cause conflicts too.

Recommended Mods
Atlas Map Markers - Updated with MCM works perfect and smaller markers make map more readable. Just be sure to put Atlas' .esp before FWMF in load order.

Get along with most UI overhauls. Dear Diary UI and its skins are highly recommended.

Known Issues
Oversensetive map camera control.
