Death Markers - how to remove them from Map?

[Nagasaki]

My map has now accumulated a number of death markers which are now redundant. I can find a way to remove them. Can some kind person enlighten me please? Many thanks

Mine are stuck too. No way to remove them.

The only way I can think of until someone makes a mod or they fix this would be to edit the database. This works for me. Unfortunately this doesn't work so well for a multiplayer server as the server would need to be shutdown, but for single-player you can just exit to the main menu, run the update and go back in.

Go to the folder with the game database. You can do this manually using explorer if you know the path. Or go to your games library in Steam and choose properties for Conan Exiles, on the third tab (Local Files) choose Browse Local Files. From there go into ConanSandbox\Saved

Create a new batch file (called mine RemoveDeathMarkers.bat) based off one of the existing batch files in the Saved folder. This batch file will run a SQL command to delete the markers for all players. Have used this safely with the latest game revision (#67264/13947).

@echo off
set db_file="game.db"
if NOT exist %db_file% (
	echo No game.db file in this directory!
	PAUSE
	EXIT /B
)

echo Removing Death Markers from %db_file%...
sqlite3.exe %db_file% "DELETE FROM properties WHERE properties.name = 'CharacterMapMarkerComponent.m_DeathMarkers';"

EDIT: Of course, Steam mangles the last command as it's too long - everything from sqlite3.exe to the end should be on one single line.

I wished my map worked. Official PVP server, and of course nothing shows on the map probably 80% of the time I log in.
I would love to see where I died.........

@Scumbumbo - many thanks for your batch file info which did the trick and worked perfectly for me as I only play single player mode (I should have said that in my original post!) Long Live DOS!! I am very grateful to you/

Log in, remove bracelet, enjoy markers, grab gear.
Each time you log in, they seem to vanish, but a death or suicide will make them reappear :)
It should always be working properly though, but for the time being, this is a workaround

I have yet to see a death marker on my map- I thinkm its broke for me.

Find the Config.ini called *ServerSettings*. For Single Player Games you can find this file in
ConanExiles - ConanSandbox - Saved - Config - WindowsNoEditor.
Search for a entry called: MaxDeathMapMarkers=
Set the Standard value from 3 to 1. Save changes.
After i died 3 times the changes kicks in and there is now only one Death Marker on Screen

Askavi - Thanks for your response. My ServerSettings.ini file in the singleplayer path you laid out did not contain the MaxDeathMapMarkers= line, however i put it in and test died 3 times and it worked as you said - just one death marker! Excellent

Much better option changing that server setting. Thanks for pointing that out, Askavi!
