This is a Map FAQ:
Event on map with link to forum
  • I noticed that many young people did not see "Back" (and do not have access to the map of the New Lands of Atys). :)
  • In addition, the maximum number of markers has been modified, research and events are new features....
  • a Patch (in March 2020) added a command, to hide/show landmarks: /showHideUserLandMark (more on Special command and you can use it in macros).
  • the toolbar has been improved: a dynamic events icon has been added, search in flags, filters.... Silan has a detailed map of the Ranger camp Patch 916-921 (2022)...
Detailed map of Silan Ranger Camp

For new comers, start with the User Manual, the sections Maps and compas.

The map's toolbar

From left to right (3 lines): Since Sept 2022, addition of an Filter icon
Back (to navigate in maps), ; zoom + ; zoom - ; center the map (on your position, useful after a big fast zoom) ; ? to search ; Filters on your Landmarks (new in JA 2620) ; DE icon (see below #Dynamic Event)
Below: IG hour and date[1] ; climatic conditions (or cc, important for Harvesting).

The map - basics

You can open/close the map with m or using the toolbar - not to be confused with the compass or radar (you can retrieve an existing landmark on your map and add it to the compass).

CTRL+M open map in big.

  • The map (M) has 3 zooms. To change the view, or use the scroll mouse on map, and/or clic on a town to see its map.
  • To add to compass a direction: right clic on the compass, you'll see a menu (target, Missions, Mark, animal, team... and a zoom for the compass).
To use target: either after a macro, or after a tar (ex: /tar "harmful ragus"), space bar = in front of you (see all keyboard shortcuts by holding K down)
  • category:Starting Out as a lot of nice stuff for beginners.
  • In-game landmarks (or flags) are saved in a landmarks_hominname.xml file, which is stored in the save folder - more at Ryzom location.

    Macro to search the map for a landmark


Dynamic Event

Dynamic Event: since JA2603 (June 2019), a blue Events button has been added to the map toolbar (1 in the image below). This blue Events button makes a transparent layer appear/disappear on top of the map, which is useless if there is no event in progress . This layer has a red and white button in its upper right part (2 on the image), which is inactive if there is no DE.

If a DE is in progress, then it is displayed on the map (in orange in the map toolbar: 1 Dynamic Events + a big blue dot on the map) and you can also keep a separate window open to monitor it.

Open the DE window and close the DE layer and the map.

More on Dynamic Event.

Landmarks

Backup your files: quit game, and zip your folder save (check the date, to be sure it's the right one [3]) :p Your personal landmarks are held in a .xml file - named "landmarks_nameoftoon.xml" in the save folder.

To merge 2 files:

  1. quit the game, then
  2. copy the lines between <interface_config> into target file and
  3. relaunch the game. it will merge duplicate <landmarks continent> lines and remove duplicate markers.

If you want to share landmarks between characters on same computer, then rename landmarks file to shared_landmarks.xml


More on Ryzom location.

Tips

  • shared_keys.xml (to share macros with several toons) and shared_interface.icfg exists as well
  • On Various applications, for windows you'll find information about a windows software (from Fluffy Bunnies) to export your landmarks into an excel sheet, import, and more...

Persistent Map zoom level

Source: https://app.ryzom.com/app_forum/index.php?page=topic/view/32376/1

For example, if your landmarks_<char>.xml looks like:

 <landmarks continent="testroom" type="user"/>
 <landmarks continent="tryker" type="user" zoom="6">
   <landmark type="29" x="16658.34" y="-31713.11" title="Kami N"/>

then, change it to:

 <landmarks continent="testroom" type="user"/>
 <landmarks continent="tryker" type="user" zoom="6">
   <landmark type="29" x="16658.34" y="-31713.11" title="Kami N"/>
if(!element.attributes.zoom) zoom = 1 else try { zoom = int(element.attributes.zoom) except zoom = 1 }
