#Sundarpatan: New species not spawning

My friends keep telling me "just move around more" or that I "haven't explored enough" - well, after exploring half of the map, I can say with a very firm confidence that the new species aren't spawning. The only thing that's spawning in low numbers are blackbuck, water buffalo, and the geese, all species that are making a reappearance. When I travel further north (which I'm assuming is out of their spawn zones), there's not a single thing on the entire map. No warning calls, no tracks, no zones, and no animals. I have tried reverifying my game files, not once but twice. I have even gone as far as resetting the population file, thinking maybe then they would spawn in. But it's as if they simply don't exist in my game.

Additionally:

  • I'm one of the people experiencing the bug where I crash when I try to join multiplayer lobbies. I don't crash on single player, but again, spawns aren't working properly. Unsure if this is connected or not.
  • I was checking out the new multi-mounts in the trophy lodge, and when I clicked them, it didn't list the required animals, once again acting as if those specific animals don't even exist. Older multi-mounts and their UI are perfectly normal.

@royal trail will do, wont be long

#

@royal trail seems to work for me! Delete this file: global_animal_types.bl (not blo) in this folder: \SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\theHunterCotW\dropzone\global

#

ive also deleted animal population files in \Documents\Avalanche Studios\COTW\Saves\"number"\

This is an issue caused by mods and other people had this also happen when emerald coast came out. Same with the negative trophy score that someone else reported today

#

Only mods i got on is graphical and fast walking speed. Strange it affects animals

median wraith
#

Yea but it does, probably because you have to install other stuff to make it work

Maybe if you have them in the same folder, I dont know. But you do have or had some mod installed, that's what the dropzone folder is used for afaik

royal trail
#

It could be a location issue then, because I've never installed anything like that for this game
Thanks for your help!
