Greetings. Mine only works in Felluca. I know that's not a solution, but try there. If that works then we may have the same problem and it may be out of our hands. I don't know enough to comment on that just letting you know my similar situation

Further down in the help forums is a post I did on this exact issue. Its located here http://www.uoex.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=8457 . This should fix the problem with the black screen. Post back your results as I would be interested to know if it worked for you.

Thankyou for the replies, I have got as far as
"For Automap the main problem is that you may get a black screen. This is caused by Automap looking for your UO client files. To fix this under the Map menu open UO client data files location. Once in there uncheck the box to have UOAM find it automatically and then in the UO Client Folder type in the location of your UO folder. Ie c:\program files\Ultima Online. Once that is done you should be all set."
But I am unsure where to find " Map menu open UO client data files location" TIA

You have to activate the menu bar across the top of the page I believe it is done by clicking on the screen if that doesn't work try going ahead and right click and see if you can turn on the menu bar

All sorted now, I have both chars up and running, uo auto map seems to be working fine except I cant seem to get it to track my location. I have done a bit of research on the net, do I have to be using uo assist ? because im using razor. Thankyou again for all your help

Sounds like you need to calibrate it. Get a sextant in game and get your coordinates and then there is an area in Automap to Calibrate it. That should fix it
