Console TMM 1 problem - now solved thanks.

[Bluegunk]

TMM 1 (toggle map markers on, allow travel) is something I frequently use when testing out my creaking load order.

But it has stopped working. 

All I can do now is place my own marker on a location on the map. And...that's it.

 

I've not altered my map mods, nor added anything weird about travelling. So, I'd appreciate any ideas folks might be able to offer on what sort of thing could change a base console command.

An INI file alteration?  I did start using (against my better judgement) BethINI recently.

 

Thank you.

🤓 Um ackshually, the command should be tmm 1 1 1 or optionally tmm 1 where the first 1 stands for whether or not to show the markers. The 2nd 1 is whether or not to allow travel and it defaults to 1.

 

Bad jokes aside.... the documentation does not mention any situations where this wouldn't work.

Any SKSE plugin. Whether it could be done through the SKSE interface or not I do not know, but regardless of this, any dll injected in SkyrimSE has the potential to do whatever with the game code. A wizard could turn Skyrim into a game of Minesweeper with a SKSE dll.

Here's some that contain the word "Marker":

 

[Display]
bLoadMarkers=1
bShowMarkers=0

 

[Gameplay]
fMapMarkerUpdateTime=0.0500

 

[MapMenu]
fMapLocalMarkerSelectionDist=0.0300
fMaxMarkerSelectionDist=0.0030

Hello again! Thank you for the pointers. I've walked 500 miles and 500 more - all on TMM 1 !    I'll try the extras but never needed them in the past.

SKSE - OK, at least that's something I can look at!

 

Many thanks!

Right so, had a look at this thing (previous post being a bit of a joke I admit). Try this:

1. Install More Informative Console if you don't have it already.
2. Set bShowMarkers=1 under the Display section.
3. Start the game.
4. coc Riverwood01
5. Walk to the junction outside the Sleeping Giant and Riverwood Trader.
6. On the ground you see a cyan colored marker with a large "M" in it.
7. Open the console and select the marker.
8. Its base form id is 0x10, the reference id is 0x162a4 and it is enabled.
9. Under "Form location information" the base and references are all defined in Skyrim.esm.

Do you agree with all of this, or is something different?

Sorry you have written this.  Many thanks for your help.  Oh, and that Show Markers is interesting. I'll give that a try anyway.

 

Amended solution:  At first I thought it was a corrupted save. But it turned out Survival Mode was enabled - but not switched on in main menu. The quick way to check this is to go outdoors, call up the main menu and reset it back to Default. Sure enough - up pops the Survival Mode check box all ticked. Untick it and save.  Problem sorted.
