Hi all, I have recently picked up Oblivion on GOG after having issues modding my Steam copy lately and ran into a small snag with one of my favourite mods.
Map Marker Overhaul
I am using Wrye Bash Now as i was having problems with Mod Organiser 2 and Oblivion and have successfully run the MMO wizard installer (after converting the wizard.txt to UTF-8 to enable it) but the mod does not take effect in game, I simply have the vanilla map and none of the mods features.
I have tried reinstalling it numerous times with the same result and even tried installing it with Oblivion Mod Manager as suggested on Reddit but the map remains vanilla.
I was using Dynamic Map but have since removed it (it wasn't working anyway) and have no other map or UI mods apart from DarNified UI and Minimap.
Oddly, using the Minimap mod shows some extra icons like wayshrines and rune stones but on tabbing to my main map, they disappear.
Edit: Even odder still, if i click on the map markers i have discovered, the MMO options come up (like quest/closed etc) but the extra icons do not appear and the map has not changed style.
Edit: I have tried changing the icons and they appear but the map is still the vanilla map even with the new icons.
Sometimes, the icons of discovered waypoints disappear entirely but i am still early into this save.
I have since removed Minimap but the issue remains.
I have also moved MMO as high in my load order as possible but it made no difference as there are no conflicts anyway but i am getting desperate!
I even had the option of paying a guard to add locations on my map and he apparently added four, yet they did not actually appear on my vanilla map anyway.
I have spent hours on this searching Google and reading pages of posts on Nexusmods to no avail, this is the only mod i cannot get working even though it worked perfectly first time on my Steam version of the game.
Can anyone help me? this is the last mod i am trying to install and everything else runs perfectly.
Thank you for your time and i hope you're having a great weekend!

SOLVED: Turns out i am an idiot and didn't realise that MMO does not come WITH the Elven map pictured on its mod page.
I installed the Elven Map Redux and redownloaded MMO as i was still having issues and all seems to be working as expected now.
