Mav,

the fix is to remove RFB 1.52 from activation in JSGME. Go into the RFB Data/Menu/Cfg folder and remove the file Maps.cfg from the folder (or simply rename the file to something like "RFB_maps.cfg").

Of course this will cause the maps to be displayed as the stock game. But, your really not missing any features except to have the "SymbolZoom=15" changed back to the stock "SymbolZoom=10", no big deal. If you want, you can manually change this parameter for both the Nav map and the Attack map.

The stock zoom levels will prevent the harbor docks from slipping about like their on ice and the positions are a bit more centered.

You'll lay a set of waypoints to take you out of Pearl. Then suddenly everything will be moved and your waypoints will go through land. It's okay as long as you stick with them, or just go out on VSR (Visual Sailing Rules), but once it's moved you face the possibility of running aground if you lay more waypoints after.

the problem seams to be the final zoom level for the most part.

if your carefull not to fully zoom you can avoid it but if you fully zoom you have to assume everything borked

If the zoom level at the closest setting is a problem for some, then remove the first level (I believe it's 1; they start at 1,2,5,...... and so on). Removing the first level (1) in both Navigation and Attack Maps should do it.
