Whats your favorite mini-map mod?

[HyrulesSoldier]

Hello,
I looked for one but could not find it so i am taking a poll on the most used mini-map mod. Vote while you can and if i missed one please comment it. Also if you care to leave your reasons why then that would be just as fine.

It's a requirement with OPIS, so I've gotten used to it lol.

And heya (check your enjin messages if you haven't today...)

My vote is for Zans... I use mapwriter but only because Opis requires it. So I actually have both loaded. I've rebound a couple of the keys for mapwriter so it doesn't interfere with Opis.

Opis and Zans

I like how Zan's looks and works, I like how JourneyMap looks and works, and I like the functions of OPIS/Mapwriter, so I have all 3 installed.

Zan's map is good, It's basically the same as rei's minimap, But You can tp to warps on zan's
JourneyMap Is good for the people who don't want to cheat, No warps, And you can only see near where you have been. So in all i'd say
JourneyMap For the player who likes less 'cheat'. And zan's for the player who just wants a good map!

I use Rei's minimap because I'm most familiar with it.

MapWriter
Is that the one where you press N to toggle size? If so, yeah, MapWriter!

I flip between rei's and zan's depending on minor things I can't be arsed to fix. Generally Zan's because I can TP to waypoints but when I first started up on monster with it the hotkey to bring up the menu and make waypoints/deactivate mob icons (which was "m" in Unleashed) didn't work, I was too lazy too faff about looking for the fix so I quit and reloaded the game with Rei's instead.

I use reis as I'm used to it, since it's the only minimap that's allowed on the vanilla servers I play on.

Strange, I understand that the idea went in this order:
- Zan's Minimap (Original)
- Rei's Minimap (Rei's -Own- Updated Zan's Minimap)
- Zan's Minimap (Back to zanz for 1.6 due to Rei's Minimap problems)

^^Is that correct?

Eh... Sorry but what? Are you sure you quoted the right guy?

Sorry, didn't explain what I was getting at:
You're using Rei's Minimap, while my (hopefully correct) list shows the order of newest and latest minimap. So I'd thought you would use Zan's for 1.6?

Oh. No, as I said, Rei's is the only one that's allowed on servers, as it, unlike Zan's, has no entity radar. Many server owner don't like that
I actually did use zan's way back in like 1.0, but I switched to Rei's later on and never really switched back.

I use MapWriter/Opis, simply because it has many uses. Chunkloading, teleporting to waypoints, stuff like that.
Plus it looks pretty in square mode.

1. Zan's minimap (Mamiya Otaru's version)... First favourite.
2. New favourite : JourneyMap All the goodness w/o the horrible lag that Mapwriter/Opis induces in my machine.

Never got into Rei's. Started playing with Zan, and just stayed with it. Journeymap can read and display Zan's waypoints. Which is neat afaic. And here's the kicker... I have no client side lag running two map mods at once, but if I run opis or plain ol'mapwriter, and my machine gets all FPS laggy!

Surely map teleporting defeats all purpose of IC2 teleporters, game fairness and most other mods?
