Turning Off Writhing Wall Phase Notifications

robbybobby82 · October 14

I don't know if anyone else is having this problem or if it's even an easy fix (I'm not very good with managing add on options) but these notifications for the server progress of the WW event keep popping up on top of my minimap no matter where I move it on the HUD. For reference it is Votan's minimap addon. I've tried digging into the options but I see nothing to turn these SUPER annoying notifications off. Again, they persist and show up right on top of the minimap no matter where I place it on the HUD. I don't want them on my hud at all. Anyone know how to get rid of them? Thanks.

I don’t think that is from an add-on, I am not using a minimap and I see it.

The problem is the way it interacts with the minimap addon.

The bar is shown for everyone. But players who use a minimap also have the bar on the minimap, but it’s specifically sitting on top of things then.

This may be a thing to highlight to the minimap addon author.

It is a base game thing. It appears as part of the main map and gets carried over to the mini map. It is happening with the mini map from Bandits UI, too. Thankfully, it only shows while on Solstice.

This seems like an addon issue, as it's not an issue for the regular map, where it's very unobtrusive. I don't see notifications, as in popups, but I do enjoy the progress bar.

Hopefully the addon author can address it—I'm sure they've already gotten reports, but you'd have to check their addon page or Discord server.

Thanks for clarifying.

This is sort of off-topic, but I have a question about the minimap. I don’t think I have a way to contact the author since I am on console.

I would like to use the minimap, but the north-up always orientation makes it more confusing than useful to me. Is there a way to get it to rotate around as my character moves, so the minimap is in the same orientation as my character? I did not see any option that looked like it would do that, but it’s what I am used to seeing in other games. I was using the circular minimap.

Unfortunately, no. The mini-map just takes the base game map and applies it to a smaller zoomed in frame. Since the base game map does not change rotation, then neither can the mini-map.

I tried to get rid of it, but it gets back. I think it happens then the state gets an update. That's why I did not see it happen on PTS.

Sadly, this didn't fix the issue for me. Do you know if there's a specific setting that's supposed to do it?
