Revision as of 12:24, 28 June 2020
This is a Map FAQ:
- I noticed that many young people did not see "Back" (and do not have access to the map of the continents 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).
For new comers, start with the User Manual, the sections Maps and compas.
The map's toolbar
From left to right (3 lines): 
Back (to navigate in maps), ; zoom + ; zoom - ; center the map (on your position, useful after a big fast zoom) ; ? to search ; 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).
- 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.
Atys global view: to see it, clic on "back". Useful when you need to go in an other continent (using vortex).
Usual view. Here you can organize your flags - flags color change regarding the category (bandits, path, source...).
"Detail" view, for towns (here Pyr). User back to un-zoom
- 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.
The map - FAQ
- Coming back after a long absence? Patch 2020, Patch 2019... summarize the big changes in the game (with links to forum posts).
- Mektoubs/Gubani and Zig are shown on the map, but not your apartment or GH (add a mark on tour map). More on Mektoub FAQ
- Team members appear on the map. Not his friends (F) nor guild or league members.
- We see the resurrection points (rez points) only for the active subcontinent (the one where we are).
- You can now see the distance by right-clicking on the map.
- The landmarks on the map are stored in a landmarks_toonname.xml file, located in a save folder (which is basically under a 0 or 1 folder).
- a Patch (in March 2020) added a command, to hide/show player landmarks: /showHideUserLandMark (more on Special command).
- Now you can access Dynamic Events (Kiting invasion, puzzles, Storyline's Nexus Events...)
- The map take too much space on your screen (13")?
- use the 4 desktops (very often F3 is "less loaded")
- maintain the Fx key is very usefull, with x=1 to 4 (for ex, to add a 2nd "hand" toolbar)
Landmarks
Backup your files: quit game, and zip your folder save (check the date, to be sure it's the right one [2]) :p Your personal landmarks are held in a .xml file - named "landmarks_nameoftoon.xml" in the save folder.
To merge 2 files:
- quit the game, then
- copy the lines between <interface_config> into target file and
- 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 to export your landmarks into an excel sheet, import, and more...
