my gmap works fine in v2 but in v3 and v4 it blacks out all the spots i the player hasn't visited yet my gmap is as follows:

GRMAP001
WIDTH 45
HEIGHT 38
MAPIMG eden_nwmap.png
LOADFULLMAP

and i've tried adding NOAUTOMAPPING and when i add that the map doesn't even work at all. is this another v3/v4 bug?

Hmm, Graal4 isn't downloading the map image, but I don't recall having this problem on other servers. Your folder configuration looks fine (plus Graal2 is downloading it). I removed the LOADFULLMAP thing since you won't need it (it loads the entire gmap into memory instead of parts of it). Maybe Stefan or someone else knows what's up.
Edit: doesn't seem to be working on another server too, I will add it to the v4 bugs list.

It's actually not a bug, v4 doesn't support map images anymore, because they are most of the time too big anyway. It is always using automapping. This could be changed so that it at least downloads the image and prepares the automap (copy the parts of the map image into the automap parts), but this is quite complex, since it must also detect updates of the main map image and then update the automap parts.
So if its a big problem it can be added sometime soon, if not then it will take more time.

Its a problem where i have a big gmap. I can't use the mouse warping with out the img loading. It also makes it very hard to level it.
