Question Tims Huge Minimap

Hi guys,

On a few of tims vids, I see he has a standard setup - 1 main 4x square windows on right. Now when he was in PVP he had his first top right windows showing nothing but a HUGE minimap (hunters, show hunmanoids) i.e shows alliance in red in battlegrounds.

I'm wondering how i can do the same? as i have 4x hunters & 1 preist

Anyone tell me the mod he used?

I'm having troubles locating some of his 4 hunter/1 priest PvP videos, but it sounds like Tim used the zoom windows in Pwnboxer to get the huge minimap you speak of.

okey ive managed to figure how zooming works problem is its extremly pixelated.
I've put the graphics on FULL for the slave that is being zoomed in on (the minimap) however it makes only a slight difference in terms of pixels and also now makes the game lag.

Also I still can't duplicate how tim has it so big in his video listed above.

Right click on the single "zoom" box in Pwnboxer (not the zoom bar) and up the zoom ratio. It can go all the way up to 500%. The pixelation if just a byproduct of zooming in on something. If you zoom in on an image in Photoshop it becomes pixelated too. The same concept applies.

Also, please avoid double posting.

Everybody is correct, that is the zoom feature of Pwnboxer, another awesome exclusive thing we have (until ofc somebody rips us off) .

There is also a Minimap Addon Called Mappy that you can increase the size of the Minimap to insane sizes lol. I use it and I will never go back. I would link to the site where you can download it but I prefer not to. I will say you can find this addon on Curse's website.

Again its called "Mappy"

best minimap addon ever... sorry to see Sexymap go bye bye... but much happier now. Especially while farming ore/herbs.

Mappy is good.

I like that you can have whatever resource you are tracking, set to strobe blue/yellow in a very easily noticeable way.
Combine that with a huge mini-map on the non-active windows...

I do have to say that it is extremely OP to be a multiboxed group of hunters and easily have access to track everything (humans, hidden) at once.
