I cannot for the life of me find a meadow

[blacklock.logan1]

I don't know what happened. Every single other world I've previously played on I have been able to find cattle basically everywhere around spawn. I have dug up everywhere and at this point I can safely say there is no meadows anywhere at least from what I can tell.

This is frustrating because that limits my access to Wool (To my knowledge) I'm getting to the scarlet tier and am looking through azoroths wilderness for more since the wiki says some can be found there and have had no luck. did they change something or am I going insane?? I need the wool to craft gear etc.

Meadows are really rare.
In my games usually there is one near the Core and one in the Wildneris.

You can also get Wool from several chests types :
Scarlet, Octarine, Galaxite, Ancient, Golden Ancient, and several more Chests types

Note that you can upgrade any weapon and armor up to Lvl 19, so you do not necessarily need to craft Scarlet armor to progress. If you play mage you may prefer the Scholar's or Sorcerer Armor from the Sunken Sea anyway ...

Some maps the animals that produce wool are just crazy rare...

I think the easiest fix is just make a new map, bring a few livestock boxes and bring the animals back to your main map.

Yeah, just create a new world and bring some livestock boxes. In most cases, just digging around the core in the Dirt biome should turn up 1-3 meadows.

The meadows have been relocated to the Wilderness biome. It became much bigger too.

According to the wiki :
"The Meadow is a sub-biome that generates in the Undergrounds and Azeos' Wilderness."

I played two worlds, one in Early-Access and one after the Release and both worlds had meadows near the Core as well as in the Wildernis.

There is a chance to simply miss the meadow(s) in dirt biome when focusing on the ore progression (copper - tin - iron - scarlet - ...) leaving parts of the Dirt Biome unexplored.

Wiki updates are rather slow. The new world generation in the current patch doesn't create any meadows in the dirt biome, but only in the wilderness. There has been new reworks on some of the scenes, as well as unique boss area structures.

All of my worlds generated after 1.0 have at least one meadow in the dirt biome.

If you're so sure, make a new world and try finding a meadow in the dirt.

I'm CURRENTLY playing on a totally new world, and I've seen things myself. v1.0 you're talking about is already history(already couple of months ago)

I have a seed where there is a meadow extremely close to core:
609491049813
difficulty: casual
chaos: normal
ore density: high
tunnels: normal
chambers: normal
rivers: normal
lakes: normal
pits: low
ceiling holes: normal
it should be bottom-right

After some more testing, there is, in fact at least one meadow in the dirt biome.
I guess I was wrong.
