When I make a map and copy it a few times (to give to other players and hang on the wall) the grey arrows showing players' positions and headings disappear.

The green icon for the copy on my wall is there consistently. And I can see the blue blocks indicating that a player is just off of a map but once they move on to the map I am looking at, the blocks disappear (as they should) and no grey arrows appear.

My arrow is visible up until I copy the maps and then it seems to disappear. Occasionally it will reappear, sometimes after I restart (but very rarely). I seem to recall that after I did the first map, I could see the player arrows for a short time, but then they were gone. I am fairly certain that it was before I created the second map.

I am running the SPhax Pure BD Craft (v.MC14) 128x128 texture pack on a Windows 7 x64 system. No other mods on the client.

I am playing on a personal server (running on Bukkit v1.4.5-R0.2) with a few plugins, but none related map modification (bPermissions {no perms set}, CommadBook, Giants V18, LapisPortals, LegendaryAFK, MagicSpells, MagicSpells Cast Modifiers, Pail {better server interface}, SafeCreeper).

Anyone have any idea why this is happening or what I can do about it?

Im not certain on how the player indicators work in pc minecraft but i am pretty sure that the map will only show players that have the same/another map in their hotbar(?).

I am not sure either, but in this case it is not even showing my grey arrow and I am holding the map to look at it. Also I can see that my wife has her's in her hotbar and it does not show her either.

Got onto my server with the wife last night and it was showing the arrow for her location but not mine (and not the other player, but I don't know if he had his map on him), the arrow persisted when she logged out. It stayed in the same place until she logged back in whereupon it started to move again like nothing had happened.

Anyone else have this issue or is it just me?

Also, is there a better place for me to post this? I figured Modded Client Support was the best option, but I am willing to take suggestions.

Please help...

I'm having the same issue but on a vanilla server. Find Any solutions?

The same issue started for me today. It appears to me that the arrows are being drawn under the map as I can see them poke out on the edge of the map when it is an arrow or a circle.

Client 1.4.7 with ModLoader, no other plugins. Server is CraftBukkit 1.4.7-R0.1.
