I started reviewing this last night, before you posted you later message with slightly more mapped (and at slightly lower resolution
). Please see if what is marked on the attached helps you out.
Good Luck

I'm at 98.x and I'm prayin its gonna get me atleast 1.x% to move me within .5% atleast. Derge..
Not sure myself how much area it has, 1% sounds high, but you never know until some careful person measures it out and tells us. Please let the group know.

Thanks for taking the time to look at the map for me , I have since got yet another 0.1% and hopefully with the help of your map i can get the final 0.9%
With the area on Dunes of Despair is that area reachable using only npcs? or will I need some proper help. The same goes for the ring of fire islands aswell, I find it very tough getting to the far left on the ring of fire mission with all the fire imps I think they are.
..I have attached an updated map 1280x1024 this time not to sure why I did it as 1024 before sorry

Attachment 46441 Mr Smiley,
Stuck at 95.3 is a bad sign. 4.7% is a LOT of map.
Check out my attachment, it should help you some.

Don't think the places marked will total 0.9%, but it should help.
Using the Necromancer spell Necrotic Traverse it is possible to do Dunes of Despair Bonus Area by yourself (with Hero's and henchies preferably). Doing it with a group, without using Traverse, is possible, but harder and I expect would take multiple run throughs. Guildwiki has a nice write-up telling how its done. That method is also needed to map all of "Rurik's Road", that's written up in Guildwiki also. The spot you are missing just South of The Frost Gate is almost sure to be the North end of Rurik's Road.
Good Luck.

up to 99.4% now got another 0.1% from The Frost Gate (the Prince Rurik route), another 0.1% from The Dunes of Despair although I haven't fully mapped it out yet and another 0.1% from Divinity Coast.
I managed to get to the SW corner of Dunes with my W/N using NT and just pegging it across one of the bridges using a charge/sprint and endure pain, still got a fair bit to reveal down there though I think.

Alright, I hate to ask for a recheck but I went through all the areas you gave me and only got to 98.8%. I retook the map, its at 1440 by 900, just like last time because my widescreen monitor doesn't get very big. Please help, I want to use the Hall of Monuments on friday! ^^
MarSgt Strongbow
This title made me hate life for a while. Just want you all to know i made it. My tip for you is NT(necrotic traversal). Use it in the Wilds mission, and for Frost Gate, and Dunes. the other missions(places i found the most missing map at) you need to pay attention to is Divinity Coast, Riverside Province, and Sanctum Cay. Those are the missions that most people take for granted, and don't talk about in reference to 100%. So good luck and always remember, Patients will see you through. Or a ton of beer.

I was here a while back when I was at around 94.7%....now I'm at 97.8% and I need more help...please?

Thanks!

I'm stuck at 95.8%. I would do my own compairisions but alas, my photoshop is dead. The map is 1024x768, I would make it bigger but sadly my monitor doesn't support any higher then that (but the graphics card does). Anything you could find would be a great help. Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance! Lady Ana,
The attached map should help you on your way. Among the marked places you should be able to find 0.5%.

Here are the much requested U-maps of Tyria. These are the most current maps I have and the same ones I use for my map checking service.
The maps are in "window" resolution. And are set at NORMAL interface size.
http://s241.photobucket.com/albums/ff59/jumpiu/
please keep in mind that I completed Tyria before the areanas were closed so I will have areas that will be impossible to reach. Also since Tyria has the largest leeway there will be lots of cloudy specs, specifically the Fire Islands.
Im currently working on stitching the maps together, but im waiting for the rest of GW:EN content to be opened up. So cheers for now.

It helps if you keep playing this game. I stopped playing for 1.5 years and forgot about which areas I cleared. Now I face the fugly prospect of going through all the cracks and holes of each area - not fun.

Can someone take one last look! Im almost done! 98.5%

japooty, you could just download a map mod, and it'll show you what you havent uncovered yet...
before you download the map mod, download this texmod so you can use it-> http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guide...-game_graphics
Then here's the Tyria mod-> http://www3.hrsv.de/Tyria_Cartography_Made_Easy.tpf
that will help you finish up in a few minutes

Seems too good to be true: "mods not permanent." I hope I don't have to re-install.
Thanks!
super strokey
Does the mod workt with vista? Im having troubles getting it to work.
CuzBar
woohoo got 100% thanks to all for their help much appreciated. I have attached my 100% map at both 1024x768 and 1280x1024. I have also attached the TexMod of my map as the TexMod tool is very useful for finding out some of the spot when you get over 99%
I used the built in Picture Viewer in Windows to flip between the maps to find out spots I was missing, while running the game within a window. I used the GuildWiki for reference, this forum and the two cartographer threads within it and the map done by TCFish (http://tcfish.teutonictemplar.com/map.shtml) plus the map generated for me by Bill (thanks!)
One thing I can tell you is that I missed out a fair few areas. Hell's Precipice, Ring of Fire and Iron Mines of Moladune are all missing some bits. I got the title after going around Riverside Province by the coast. I did the majority of the title using just Henchmen, no heroes as I have only got Prophecies
I used the NT trick on Dunes of Despair and Frost Gate using henchies, they add a fair amount to the total. As far as I am aware I think I missed some of the old arenas so I don't think they are on the map.
..strokey, the mod does work on Vista, as I am using it.

Ok I need help guys, I'm stuck at 97.5% and I'm at my wit's end
http://i44.photobucket.com/albums/f4...llik/gw267.jpg
However I do know that I still have the very tip of THK to do as well as the Evennia and Frost Gate trick left but I doubt those would be 2.5%.
I will reward whoever is able to help me with my plight
If my map is too small then could someone tell me how to make them bigger. I've tried to take bigger resolutions but it didn't work (I play under 1280xxxx)

I've tried to map compare with Paint Shop, but it either doesn't work quite the same, or more likely there is user input error. I priced Photoshop to follow the directions listed previously, but it is a little out of my price range for now.
This is a great thread. Thanks for all the good info and in advance for any help.

FYI I'm still looking for help doing the Wilds section with the Evennia corpse trick. If someone's willing to help, please PM me in-game or send me a message on the forums.

Well folks, good things must always come to a end. Its been fun checking maps for people, it has helped me find some missing spots on my own map. But with the new game/module coming on-line shortly I will be playing that.
Check Livingston's Guides in all of the Explorer forums for lots of good advice.
See you all in-game. Good Luck.

All advice I can give you at the moment is to take a look at:
http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/s...php?t=10160387
I stopped comparing maps a while ago and don't have the time to do it anymore.
Perhaps someone is offering a paid service for map compares?
