Is there a mod that can view the locations of enemies on a minimap

I know for some other MMORPGs it is possible to use a mod or a third party program to make it possible to view locations of enemies on a large minimap. This would come in incredibly handy for things such as vanquishing where you could view any enemies in the area and find the much easier than you would normally do.

Im just wondering if theres anything out there that has a similar effect for guild wars that i could use while working on VQ titles

It isn't possible because texmods only alter things that are 100% guaranteed to be there 100% of the time. Such as the cartographer texmod alters the map fog. It is based off a 100% map that som1 had and changed the color so that it then just puts there map over urs and changes the color to show you the fog left on your.

However since monsters don't spawn everytime and can spawn in different areas it breaks the terms to make such a mod. Yes I wish there was one cause it would make vanquisher easier to find that last guy. However this is not open battle net so we can't make one.

If you are having problems with vanquishing here is a tip: walk into area, pick a wall and stay about an agro circle off of it follow that wall all the way around the map killing any enemys you come across, and dont get to side tracked. next clear out the middle, check your mini map for spots you have missed.

btw this is a great way to get carto at the same time, the color difference on the main map will help with completed areas.

never used text mod prob never will.

ty guys ^^

In other games the mods read the packets the server sends to the client and then show the locations of where the monsters are. Is there definitely no way a standalone program could do this with GW?
