Ascaron's Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is indeed a massive game and finding your way around the world of Ancaria can be quite a challenge. For that reason this interactive map is meant to help players pinpoint their location in the world and find all the goodies that Ascaron has prepared for Sacred 2 fans in this impressive game world. Interacting with the map is simple. Left click and drag to move the map around. Double left click on the map to zoom in and double right click on the map to zoom out (or use the mouse wheel). More can be learned about this map and how fans can modify it in the Discussion Topic for this page. Optionally, you may view the [1]Full Screen Map[/URL] or Download Schot's Sacred 2 Map of Ancaria and view it using an image viewer such as the free IrfanView.

In-Game Map Overview
When playing Sacred 2, pressing the "M" key will produce an entire map of the world of Ancaria. During the beginning of the game, when it first appears, the map will be in black and white, with only the area that the character is presently in showing up in color. The colored areas will increase as more of Ancaria is traveled through and discovered. It is a live map that will display enemies as red triangles as they move about or toward you:
- Tip- Items which increase Visibility Range will display foes at a greater distance.
Map Controls
By using the mouse wheel, it is possible to zoom in and out of the map to show more details such as quest circles, merchants, rune traders, resurrection monoliths, portals, etc.:
Also in the game's map, right-click and drag to move the map around. This is especially useful for traveling to a far-off portal, such as Christmas Island.
When in map mode, press and hold the mouse wheel (or middle mouse button) to produce a small, highly-detailed mini-map that can be scrolled about to better study all the terrain already discovered by the character.
Minimap
The minimap in the top corner can be customized by clicking one of the three available buttons in the Graphical User Interface.
1) Clicking the upper gold "eye" button produces the Show/Hide Symbols menu.
Show/Hide Symbols
- Merchant
- Quests
- Friends and Foes
- World Objects
Placing an X in the boxes will display these symbols on the map.
2) Clicking the gold "gear" button brings up Minimap Options and Tab-map Options.
Minimap Options
- Size
- Scale
- Curvature
- Icon Size
- Transparency
- Rotation
Tab-map Options
- Scale
- Icon Size
- Transparency
- Rotation
- Persistent
3) Clicking the gold "pointer arrow" is a toggle which shows or hides the minimap.
- Pointing up shows the map
- Pointing down hides the map
Tab-Map
Pressing the Tab key while in the game will enlarge the Minimap and display considerably more of the nearby terrain. It will return to Minimap size when the Tab key is released.
- Tip- Travel is possible while this map is open. This is more easily accomplished if the terrain direction (compass) corresponds to the Minimap's direction, i.e., both are pointing North. (If Rotation is unchecked in Options, pressing the Z key will return the compass to North to match the Minimap.)
- Note- The Tab-map can be used even if the Minimap is hidden.
