I was wondering if it's possible to make a minimap addon that doesn't actually have a minimap, but instead a compass, kind of like what's in Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim?
I would like something like that, to use instead of a minimap.
If there is a way to make something like that, and there isn't an addon already made like it - how would I go about doing it myself?
I would love to learn.
Here is a screenshot of what I'm talking about
:
The compass itself is on the top. It's designed to move with your character's direction. So say you're facing a certain direction, and move to another direction, when you move it will show icons on the compass to indicate locations that are normally shown on a map, without being as cluttering as a minimap.
If possible, I'd love to see a User Interface designed off of this entire thing, but that's for another post, and another time.
