Hey everyone my name is Doctor Get Sum and im new to the forums, Im currently working on a project that has had me busy for the past few days and im getting svck at one part in my creation in the creation kit for skyrim. i have started to create a new "world" aka island in a different world space, ive connected my world to skyrim via a boat, then the door on the boat telports you to the same boat on my island, everything worlds perfects other then when i push "m" for map, the map for my island is the skyrim map ive gone to world>Create local maps and i selected my land and pushed create local map. it says local map generations complete, but still does nothing... any help would be very helpful thanx!

Creating Local Maps does not do what you think it does... all this does is create a ton of Textures in your Textures\Maps and Textures\Maps\YourWorld folders, that can be used for other purposes but they are not directly used in game for anything I am aware of.

You need to generate LOD and a settings file (Along with setting up the correct values in the CK) for your custom world map to display properly. I've made a tutorial on doing just that: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kB2rqH7Ytko

Yeah, see the tutorial mentioned above. The in-game map of your new worldspace will only show up when you have generated & installed the land LOD for it with Oscape. Objects on the map such as buildings etc will show up when youve created object LOD.
