ME1LE - Squad Member Map Issue (PC)

I’m currently playing through the first Mass Effect in Legendary Edition (PC) and I have a weird bug that is driving me crazy.  Squad member icons are facing the wrong direction on the map, I’ve attached a picture.  The red arrow notes the direction I am actually facing in the game but as you can see the map always shows me as facing off about 90 degrees to the right.  I don’t think it’s always off by 90 degrees either, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it show me facing the complete opposite direction.

I’ve done a ton of searching and can’t find anyone that’s had a similar issue.  I’m pretty lucky in general and don’t run into a lot of bugs in games, this is the first time I’ve ever had to post anywhere for help.  Would massively appreciate it if anyone had any ideas!  I wish I could ignore it but I’m one of those people that once I know there’s an issue there it bugs me.  

Thanks for reading 🙂

  • @kyulflan92  I've seen that a few times, and I always wrote it off as the squadmates pretending to be on alert for enemies that might come flying out of the rocks or walls or whatever.  Does it change if you're in combat, as in, when you know which way your character squadmates are supposed to face, do the arrows line up?  Does this happen on more than one map?

  • I am also having this error in Legendary Edition.

    Not just my squad members, but myself as well, we're all facing 3 o'clock instead of 12.

    So far I've only done the first 2 maps, and it was on both, when not in combat. Haven't seen if it also happens in combat.
