Random Spawn Options not appearing
There are a few ways others have solved problems with the mod not working. Remember that these random spawns will show up under the new game menu once the mod is enabled.

1. Uninstall and reinstall the game on the C drive.
2. If you move the maps folders from the steam workshop to the PZ game folder they work. So move the folders from "SteamLibrary\SteamApps\workshop\content\108600\1911132112\mods\Pillows Many Spawns - By Location\media\maps"
to "SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\ProjectZomboid\media\maps"

I just can't get this mod to work. I tried the suggestions you posted and still nothing. Too bad, I was really looking forward to this

Hi Rohan, are you on IWBUMS branch of PZ? Is the mod showing up at all in your mod selection menu?

Hi PilIow. I am using the 41.5 IWBUMS and the options are showing up in the mods but not when I choose starting location. I just get the same 4 towns to choose from no random choice

That's unfortunate. I think the second option should be a sure fire way to get it to work. Are you able to verify there are files at the lowest directory level in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\108600\1911132112?

You could also try copying the all of "Pillows Many Spawns Pack/contents" folders from SteamLibrary\SteamApps\workshop\content\108600\1911132112\mods\ to C:\Users\uisername\Zomboid\mods

I have tried both options you posted as solutions. I will try copying all of the contents folders. Hopefully that will help. Thank you for taking the time to help with this

I've managed to get the locations to show up when picking a starting point but, still nothing that says random. I still have to pick a starting point, ie. Valley station, Muldrough etc. Is that the way it's supposed to be?

Sounds like you moved just the "By Location" folder. There should be like 4-5 "By Profession" , "Variations", etc. Put them all in the same place that you put "By Location"

Glad you got it to work. Was it just moving the folders around that fixed it?

Heads up, Pillow. Was having the same problem. Step 2 was what fixed it for me.

Hi! I've got the mods loaded already and follow your instructions however upon hosting a server I can't find any of these mods when selecting a spawn location.

Hi Trez, I set up something that might help you out - https://github.com/crispiboi/Pillow-s-Many-Spawns-Pack/releases/tag/1.2 check out the MP resources file with a readme doc. It should be able to be dropped right onto your server
