    Default Grids on the maps

    Is there any possible way to NOT have the grids on the map? i know some people like them but i dont. Makes the maps hard to read. Thankyou in advance.

    Layer 3 in these maps contain the gridlines. Turn of layer 3 in the Cartography Tool.

    Everytime you zone, it is turned back on tho... get's annoying pretty fast.

    I'm assuming you could just delete all *_3.txt files in the maps dir.
    Or maybe it's possible to turn of layer 3 by default for everquest by editing it's ini file?

    Yes I'd also like to know if there's a way to permanently turn off the gridlines without having to delete all the 3 files in the maps folder. I figured there must be a command in one of the files somewhere in the Everquest folder that tells the map window which buttons to have pressed all the time and which ones to be left alone all the time.

    The grid lines make it hard for me to see to, so I'd like to get it so they don't show without having to hit the button in the map window every time you zone.

    Default Grid lines

    I wouldn't delete the files, move them to a new directory in case you want to ever restore them.

    If there isn't a way to set which map layers you want loaded by default, there should be. let me see if i can find an answer.

    Yeah those grid lines suck bad. Worst part is I used layer 3 for my own map notations. Now they are all gone since I downloaded and overwrote all the layer 3. Yeah my fault for not doing back ups. But it had always worked previously. What the hell good are the grid lines anyway?

    Another vote for getting rid of gridlines, all they do is confuse people. Have to turn them off every time I zone and some of them are messed up and the lines extend outside of the maps.

    Default ?

    Any word on this yet? Is there a setting in the Everquest files somewhere to make Layer 3 be permanently not displayed? Or do I need to delete all my layer 3 files in maps area if that's the only solution?

    I say start makin the all maps download not include the grid lines layer. They aren't too great, or useful.
