@Dargaroth What tool would you recommend using to populate those locations?

Would it be an issue with my mod list if something like the temple of Frost isn't spawning?

@Junior Conterno. Hi! So at the moment the Ranger Armor pattern doesn't drop on the map (and the journey doesn't work), but I did make a scroll that can be spawned from the admin panel which will teach you the feat to make the armor.

@Archie. Thanks! The unpopulated towns and villages is intentional, yes. A lot of those areas are intended for servers to set up their own things in without having to worry about blocking spawns and such since this map is geared more towards roleplaying servers. Al-Zarah is the only outlier there since it has the Headhunter event merchants, the Sacred Grove opt-out NPC and a handful of guards / merchants. Although most of those can be blocked anyway.

Oh dude this is awesome. Though I have to ask, there's a lot of unpopulated towns and villages, is that intentional, or are they still WIP?

I probably don't even need to ask, but is this by any chance compatible with the River Boats mod?

How can I get Ranger Armor in Desolate Lands? Anyone knows? (I'm assuming every server with Desolate Lands is kind of similar to my server, and don't have the classic journey that originaly gives the knowlodge)

Not really. It isn't compatible with AoC or other mods that overhaul the Exiled Lands.

Also, I realized that I forgot to update the Steam patchnotes for today. It was just a couple of bug fixes and a recook for the Funcom patch today.

The Map is great, but is has a few slight Compatibility Issues with AoC, is there a known fix for it?

@dutchynl, erunest and neshri. come on peeps, downvoting the mod for that is low and well....its just not cricket. however i also dont like discord, infact i hate it. Now darg has been good with his description here, theres a growing trend of modders who leave description blank except for a discord link. These mods i pass on instantly. So to the peeps defending discord use, imagine coming back to ark, conan, skyrim in say....15-20 years for nostalgias sake and thinking "hey my pcs way powerful compared to back then, im gonna mod the hell outta that". only to find that modding has become a drop down list with a name and a link, no screens no description nothing? thats not progress. It may be an extreme scenario but if discord keeps taking more modders..........

pretty cool mod

It does not overwrite the vanilla spawn table.

Does your map mod overwrite the vanilla spawn table? With your mod installed, the vanilla NPCs have normal HP values even though I tripled the NPC health multiplier in the server settings.

Yep I'm aware. I am looking into it and trying to fix the issue with The Dregs.

hi, please check out the cloak dungeon. After the game update, the dungeon disappeared, but it works in single-player mode and on a server that doesn't have your mod.

And edit: To put insult to injury - for his Decorations mod, he provides patch notes.

@d2r2: No i did not. So... what? Just because he is not paid, there is no right to critique anyone? Thats basically your argument: He's not paid, so you are not allowed to give any feedback. Well, if that is your way of life - you do you. I'm neither "demanding" anything, nor am I unhappy. I'm giving constructive feedback, what can be done better.

@Dutchy NL Maybe he wants or needs more people to visit his Discord. It's his right. Some write in two places. And some don't write anywhere at all, like the author of the Dark Corner mod. And although he updates it, the status/condition of the mod is not clear at all. So what, should we shoot him now?

d2r2; many software developers do it for free too as a hobby, and many mod creators do it for free aswell. And they /do/ keep change notes easily accesable to keep their mod pages user friendly. No one wants to be forced to join a discord just to see what changed when Steam has a built-in function for this. Copy/Paste is literally a 5 second job.

@Erunest And did you give a lot of money to the author of the mod, so that you can demand something from him? When you pay him a salary, then demand that he follow these or those rules. You use the content for free and you're still not happy.
If you don't like it, don't eat it!

I’m not downvoting, because I like the map, but I’d like to contribute to the discussion. A commonly adopted habit isn’t automatically a good practice. In software development, many skip tests, CI, versioning discipline, and documentation—these omissions are still weaknesses.
patch notes: Steam offers a built‑in changelog. Duplicating notes there from Discord is straightforward and can be automated with a simple script or existing bots. Publishing only on Discord reduces accessibility for users who prefer staying within Steam.
Criticism of a missing Steam changelog should not be equated with hostility or ingratitude. the comments were reasoned, not spiteful. Labeling them as “hateful” risks shutting down valid feedback. The suggestion is simple: mirror patch notes to Steam (manually or via automation). Not doing so in this specific area looks like an avoidable omission—one that many modders share—rather than a broader judgment of the author’s effort

@Dutchy NL no one told you to join 40 different discord servers, you can always make a channel in your own discord server whether private or public then use the "follow channel" feature so the announcements from other discord servers show up in yours.......

And all of those creators will get the same downvote. A game, wether its free or not, should not require you to be in 40+ discords. Its absurd and malicious practise to gain big numbers on discord.

Ah, yes. The mod is great for all other reasons, but the author follows the same practice 90% of other mod authors do, so that is the (only) reason for the downvote. That seems like a very well-adjusted point of view.

What a weird and embarrassing opinion to have.

Yes, most mod aithors do it and its annoying as hell, I am not going to join 40 discords because the server I am in uses 40 mods. Take an exemple to those Crabby mods, they upload everything on the Steam Workshop page. Its not that hard to copy/paste instead of forcing people into 40 different discord servers. Its annoying and unneccesary. Great mod otherwise, but this is such a huge point downward imo its worth the downvote.

@Hela Helheimr You're wasting your time hating someone who's pouring his precious time into giving you something new and unique for free? interesting.

@Dutchy NL and @Neshri

Most mod authors, me included, like to update everything on discord for better reach to the community they're building and easier communication.

Most mod authors as well disable comments for various reasons..

Hating the insane amount of time, love and dedication that was poured into this mod just because the detailed changelog of moving a pebble from X to Y is posted on discord and not in steam's changelogs is just pure childish... you should rather be grateful that you have someone like Dargaroth spending his precious time to give you a unique experience in Conan Exiles and expecting less than nothing in return, not even a thank you?

If changelogs being posted on discord is the reason you're not using the mod then just keep your opinion to yourself and use another mod.. there's plenty other maps but none of them offer what this one does.

wtf is wrong with these people? im not sure if they are modders or not but for the way they complain, im guessing they are not, is true, Graver, they are ungrateful morons

What Dutchy NL said. Downvoted.

Great mod but its such a shame when a server has 30 mods you're just expected to join 30 discords. You got the ''Changes'' tab on steam for a reason, please use it. Downvoted.

I hope that the interior of a mountain fort will be finished sometime because it is the best place for a base

please will there be interactive map for this mod? i want to see if there hidden caves

Not sure if its a mod issue or if its a modlist issue, I've seen issues with flickering when it rains.

Awesome! the way it should be

The starting Journey steps are missing. The gather grass, make clothes, pick up sticks and rocks, craft first weapon and pick. Place bed roll. Learn to build sandstone base. A few other Journeys missing as well like the Ranger Armor dungeon one you're aware of already.

A change in cities would be useful
There is a lack of NPC integration: with doors, passages, when you try to set their walking route with the Thrall Ale Live mod, unfortunately the gates and doors will not open and there are bugs in the tavern, there is a bar that is not functional to add Thrall

You should add a powerful creature into unfinished places just as a punishment for people like me.

ive tested riverboats of the exiled lands with this and for the most part it works well enough. west of manhunter ambush and south of the guy that rambles about the sandstone {area where demonic cats are} inbetween these two points there is a terrain tear with a huge gaping void {if i had to guess the tear is about 50m long and 20m at widest point} riverboats edits this region heavily, likely a conflict between the two {it is in the verdant oasis region} its out of the way so not noticable for the most part but bit of an eyesore.

at bloodmoon isle, theres nothing - just a red column of light. i saw people there in my first survey but when i travelled there to investigate the island is empty. dont know if this is intended or another overlap with riverboats. theres some docks and a boat on the west bank opposite the island.

other than that it seems flawless and a great vanilla experience.

Extension works with River Boats of the Exile Lands. Excellent mod = @Dargaroth

@Zfx No, not suggested as AoC makes a lot of map edits.

@Snesha The mod loads up like any other mod, it will be where your other mods are!

@Dargaroth. Good day. Please indicate the path to your map file in the game. The host asks for it to install your map.

Is the map compatible with AOC? Thanks

@Dargaroth.Thank you very much.

@Snesha. Just seeing this now, sorry! You can spawn that specific NPC in game if you've accidentally blocked the one that spawn on the map. The NPC name if you're spawning from the admin panel is: Event_Gods_JS_Priest_EL

@Dargaroth. Good day. I want to thank you for the wonderful map you made - it is very beautiful and diverse. We used your map on our server, but we had one problem - we placed blocks in the city on Telif Island and the NPC Bloody tongue of the jhebal sage disappeared there and we can't place it now. It is not called through the console. Please tell me how to call this NPC on your map.

It's a great mod, I'm planning on moving there when this world ends

Hey. great map. it's really nice, feel lively.
Just a little thing, the stage 2 doesn't seems to work, the first one was ok but the second got me falling in the emptiness to my death.

Excellent map mod thus far, thank you for sharing! I haven't checked it all out yet but it looks really good so far, & I look forward to seeing any future additions to it.

By far the best Map-Mod - Great work!

This is without a doubt the best map mod there ever was and ever will be, you would be foolish indeed not to immediately use it for all your map-related needs and shower the author with praise and steam gifts

Awesome! Incredible work!
Perfect solo mode map!
