VG:SOH PoI Maps (v2.5)

These are maps of the Vanguard world of Telon, with ingame locations or "Points of Interest" (PoIs) from the database held on this site. The following features are available:

• Full size terrain maps of the continents, with both Cobal's maps (as seen in the InfoMap UI mod) and updated versions of the old style (before Game Update 3) maps available.
• Individual maps for each zone, with options to search for zones or select from a grid.
• Cobal's detailed city maps available for some cities.
• Display any PoIs from the database, selected by category.
• View PoIs from your own CustomPoINames.txt files.
• Links to display a single PoI on the maps from an external source such as a forum post or an email.
• Search filter on the selected PoIs.
• Alternative display mode showing the distribution of resources and mobs by tier.
• General map controls including zoom levels, zone names and coordinates.

NB: Like the rest of this website, the maps are designed for best performance with latest version of Firefox. They will also display correctly in the latest version of Internet Explorer, however I make no guarantees about performance in other browsers. The maps also require javascript to be enabled.

Each map may take a few seconds to load the first time you view it, however once your browser has cached the image it will load significantly faster in the future. It is strongly recommended that you do not disable this caching or clear your browser's cache unless really necessary.

PoI Content

The following categories of PoIs are available:

Travel (e.g. Riftways and Telporters) Services (e.g. Bankers and Mailboxes) Quests (e.g. NPCs and Missive Postings) Locations (e.g. Towns and Outposts) Features (e.g. Crafting Areas and Player Housing)

NPCs (e.g. Vendors, Instructors and Informants) Resource Nodes (by type) Boss and Common Mobs Racial Starting Points Housing and Guild Hall Plots

For further details of the PoI database, see the database page.

Map Controls

Most of the map window controls are self-evident, but here are a few extra details.

• Zone maps maybe be selected in three different ways:
  • Click on a square in the minature grid map.
  • Enter a full or partial name for a zone into the search box. The search is case insensitive, however a single zone must be uniquely identified from the text for a zone to be displayed.
  • Enter coordinates for a zone into the search box, in the format "X,Y" e.g. "-27,24".
• The distributions by tier are separate to the PoI locations, the two cannot be displayed at the same time. To switch between them use Display Options: Markers under the General menu. The buttons for the PoIs and Tiers menus will then become available or disabled as appropriate.
• The PoI filter is applied to all currently selected PoIs, including both the database and your PoI files. For database PoIs it is applied against the full text, not the abbreviations. The filter reduces the number of PoIs displayed to a subset of the current selection; it is not a search on the entire database.
