This addon allows you to use the fast travel functionality of the game in a comfortable and highly-customizable way. All fast travel options you have through your guilds, friends and group are listed in a clear way and are usable with different search and filtering features. To get the most out of it, as with any other addon, it is recommended to check the settings after initial installation.

LibAddonMenu-2.0 (to manage the addon settings)

Meaning of Colors:
- GOLD = player and zone favorites

Troubleshooting:
-
No players you can port to / empty result list
- Remember, free fast travel is only possible to your personal group members, friends or guild members. So first of all, you should check if any of your contacts are online and in a "normal" zone (no instance or pvp zone).
- If you still cannot see any port options, check your addon settings. You can also try resetting them to defaults.
- Finally, disable all other addons except BMU and its libraries and test again. Especially, language patches can corrupt ingame functions that are used by BMU.
-
Missing icons
- If you still cannot see any icons/buttons after the installation of the addon, please restart the complete game. Unfortunately, ESO loads custom icons only once at game start.
- Also, please check if you installed the addon correctly and that the addon folder BeamMeUp is placed correctly in \Elder Scrolls Online\live\AddOns\
- If you then still cannot see the icons/buttons, please close the game and delete the file ShaderCache.cooked in the live folder.
- In rare cases, the McAfee antivirus solutions can delete/block the icon files in the addon folder. You can try to disable the protection while downloading and installing the addon. You can also check if dozens of .dds files are in the /BeamMeUp/media/ folder.
-
Issues with Pan&Zoom
- When using BeamMeUp together with the outdated addon Map Tools, the Pan&Zoom feature might not work correctly. You can disable Map Tools or the Pan&Zoom feature in BeamMeUp.
-
Gamepad mode
- The gamepad mode is currently not supported! Gamepad Mode users have to use the mouse (or keybind) to open the addon interface manually. If you notice any bugs while using the Gamepad Mode, please let us know!
