Not so much a wild idea but....

I am currently building a collection for our next "season" on our 50 man server. I typically wipe every 2 to 3 months when the active player base has reached "end game" and things get boring. Super interested in running this map but would like to ask a few things.

Are there going to be major terrain changes that will destroy bases in the playable area?

Can you add markers of some sort that will warn players of future ruin locations?

If the answers are "No and Yes" I will have this running Annunaki with players on it by the end of tomorrow. (This is the weekend, and coincedentally, my weekend)

I want to open a server on this map next week, but I have the same question. Are there going to be major terrain changes that will destroy bases in the playable area?
I really want to play on this map but if the base are destroyed, I prefer wait and see :p

My suggestion probably sounds nooby, but, on the Umassoura map, the dev on that one made two unique dinosaurs, a Colossal Rex and the Diamondback Rattlesnake.

Is it possible for you to make special unique dinosaurs to this map exclusively? If so, I had alot of suggested species. If not, I dont mind.

^^^^

This so much. Make a companion mod to add creatures if desired.

Hellow,

@t Judge Fear , KaTaLLaY no there won't be major changes, only at mountains/ocean there will be added more rocks.
If it happens, i will add markers 1 month before it will change.

@t TheIronWolf45 I will add new meshes at update 5. There will be an update 6... ( But those info will be added after the map will be completed)

I will not add new animals but thanks for the thought.

Strange idea here, but I'd love to see it. A cave system with no visible entrances. You'd have to harvest a boulder to reveal the entrance. Or perhaps the entrance is concealed by thick brush.
Just for that awesome 'Eurika' moment.

Good idea. Noted

I have no idea if this is possible with the game engine/etc but it occurred to me, based on the size of your map - would it be possible to have a looping map? As in, if you go all the way north, you'll come out in the south (same with east-west)? Like the map is an entire planet.

Many areas are very cluttered, especially areas which could otherwise be scenic. There are also a lot of rocks formations apparently everywhere, as opposed to just certain locations. This is probably just a personal preference though. I didn't like the center overdoing the vertical rocks either but I guess most people don't mind.

k, Thanks for you thought,
indeed i used those formations, cause its still a lot of work, when the map is complete i'll start to chance those formations in ruins, and use a splash of details. maybe own meshes. depends how long it woth take for the full size.

On update 5 i will change some clutters

Love the map so far and i have just added it as my fourth dedicated server with Annunaki and a few other mods...its called CyberBeaver's Oldest World Annunaki Modded Ark. Only thing is that we havent been able to finf cattails in swamp or harvest rare flowers from obsidian so we cant make sedative narcotics and secondly..angler fish seem to be hiding very well so hard to find angler gel eexcept small amounts in drops.Again , thanks for a great and beautiful map so far.

Hellow ,

Ty for the post,
yes the rare flowers are really rare, you can find the plants at 'the swamp' near the ocean and snow mountain ;-) , only at the foot of the mountain.

anglerfish, saddly enough are the ocean not deep enough on the part of africa , anglerfish and deepsea fish, 'dinos' , will be added with the next main update on the part of north america and south america will be the waters deep enough. keep in mind, that in the future all dino's will be spawn in continents ( you can find mammoths on the south part but will be rare)
