mjharper: Thanks for this :-) It does seem to point south for me, though...
Out of curiosity, can you let me know where - even a screenshot of the area, minimap, and main map if you have fraps and the inclination.

As I mentioned, all I can really know is your minimap's rotation amount, not for sure know which way the game world is always oriented.

It seemed to point south for me running around in Chapter 2 on Roche's path. But have a set point of reference is nice either way.

Thanks. I'm not sure if I can make a generic solution, but I wonder if I couldn't just detect which minimap it's using to know whether I should flip the pointer or not...

I installed the mod this afternoon when I was wandering around the harpy queen's area past the old quarry in Act II...

NICE! thanks for this :)

hm. I wonder if the Nexus will be open to starting a Witcher section. They started out as Elder Scrolls only but have added a Fallout 3/NV and Dragon Age section, couldn't hurt to ask them, especially if CDPR released mod tools. i would be nice to have a real mod community.

ETA: I asked them, we'll see if they go for it.

I have an idea for a general solution for making sure it points north; I don't know if it'll work though. Does anybody have any save games for the second and third chapter where it's pointing south (hopefully somewhat spoiler free)? I haven't been ploughing through the game, so I'm still in the first chapter.

Updated against game patch v1.2 and hopefully it keeps pointing north now, thanks to some save games from made.

See the first post for updated links.

Wow thank you for this! I questioned the map myself but thought I'd be alone on getting confused. Much thanks!
Can we get an update for Patch 2.0 ?
