EDIT: wait, if you have the .dds for the worldmap already, in the place where it was created, doesn't the worldmap now pop up when you hit 'M'?
No it didn't appear. The map was completely black. However, now that I have the Minimap added they both seems to work fine. I'll just have to scale down the minimap resolution.
Looks like one problem is solved now and a few more to go.
Thank you for your help.
