Examples¶
This will set a red CastRadius circle around your own spawn on the MQ2 map.
/mapfilter castradius color 255 0 0
This will display all NPCs between level 60 and 65 within a radius of 50
/mapfilter custom npc range 60 65 radius 50
This will display all NPCs within a radius of 1000
/mapfilter custom npc radius 1000
This command can also be used at larger ranges by entering a larger number.
To restore the settings saved in your ini and remove your custom filters use the command without any parameters.
/mapfilter custom
Troubleshooting¶
My map is no different than normal and /mapfilter all had no effect, what did I do wrong?
The /mapfilter all show command only affects map items that have already been individually set to "show". It does not enable all filters simultaneously as might be expected. You need to enable each desired filter type individually first (e.g., /mapfilter npc show, /mapfilter pc show, etc.) before /mapfilter all show will display them.
