there is nothing wrong with that map. That is all of map1.
below that where it looks cut off is map2. You actually have more map than most people. I for one do not use FPS optimizer.

So don't worry. Its not missing, it just hasn't been released.
theviking and MowSkwoz have it in theirs... soo: "We need quest designers!" - Stolen From teh Cutness.

Trust us, it simply wouldn't be worth it to add invisible walls or whatever only to have people redownload a new version of the map once Map2 is released.

You'll get the same abrupt cut for Map3 and Map4. Map5 and Map6, provided you have all other TR maps, will have natural walls along the borders to Skyrim, Cyrodiil and Black Marsh, so it'll feel more natural.

Because Morrowind.exe only displays on its worldmap cells between (-29, -29) and (28, 28). Everything beyond is ignored.

A somewhat-buggy tool that allows to correct this map problem.

There's about 678 threads on this topic already.

It works exactly as the local map.

You know what's also popular? Enormous flying cities and ridable dragons. Maybe TR should invest in navigable ships and underwater cities.

But once you get to the point on which you can't scroll any more, ie the parts where the map gets cut off, you can't scroll any more. If you go to Port Telvannis and try and scroll, it will just take your map view back to the far left side of the map.

This is hardcoded into the game. FPS Optimizer 2.0 fixes it somewhat.

FPS Optimizer v2.0 "fixes" the map scroll problem, but makes all of the explored areas show up in gray, not in shades of green. It affects ALL of the map, so your map suddenly becomes quite a bit LESS useful for the original areas you explored previously. The only way to restore the colored map is to remove FPS Optimizer and run Wrye Mash on your saved game, from what I've been told.
