[edit] Map Cleaner
Similar to Seventh's mod above, this mod removes clouds from the main map, but also removes the thin black borders along the edges of the map and removes cloud shadows seen when the map is zoomed in. Be aware that removing the borders causes a slight DirectX glitch to occur along the left and right sides of the Tyria map; this is to be expected and not harmful. Epileptic users should avoid this mod for that reason, however.
