Second Picture: JQ of course. (there's also a blackspot in some other Kurzick areas if you haven't gotten them.)

Third/Fourth: Above poster. Get banished for 3rd. for 4th, hug near balth shrine (thought I haven't gotten it yet either)

Again thanks for your tips and help. I was also lucky because the first time visited Jade Quarry for mapping i found full parties who wanted the same thing.
With your help i did 2 Grandmaster Cartografer.

Yea that did the trick, thx mate, found that amatz one as well, what you do is head towards the portal into mourning veil, but instead of going through continue going round the area keeping tight to the wall

Thanks Nick

*: Have you done Artistic Endeavors? It should lead you to it.
**: Corner of the 'fort' in Aspenwood I believe.
***: I think that's near Tarlok Evermind.

One is in town, one is outside.

NOTE: I see you don't have some blackspots that I have posted a few posts up.

Thanks very much for the maps in the first few posts! Got my title yesterday and am psyched! And for those of you worried about little tiny spots, don't. My title is without the Jade Quarry, didn't wall hug in Fort Aspenwood and have never been to a faction controlled area. Have never used textmod or whatever it is as I'm a bit too slow to work it out lol ..Good luck dudes

I'll be happy to help in game... just pm me. Am also Tyrian Grandmaster

I didn't unfog them - I got a lot of black areas instead.

Have you tried scraping all the Challenge Missions? Aurios Mines in particular has a wonderful black border.

Yup. I actually looked at some other topics and saw the awesome areas where you can uncover the black areas.

That actually bumped me up to 99.8%

Thanks for the reply too

Senzun tunnels, Part connecting to Xaquang and then scrape the north border.
Nahpui explorable, where the beastmaster boss is on his island, go as south as you can and scrape.
Xaquang, while heading to shenzun, just before the portal, scrape southern wall.
Sunjiang or Pongmei Valley, Scrape towards the big spot you still need, you'll probably have to come at it from 2 or 3 sides to uncover it all.
Zin Ku Corridor, Go to the ''Favor'' area (God shrines) And scrape southly/Southwestly.

There is an area just west of 11 in Kaineng, the south-east most part of Raisu, and part of Imperial Sanctum that I cleared with one char, but can't for the life of me figure how I did it, so, how do you clear there? (funny, the map with the areas marked shows the area uncleared, but your primary maps show the area cleared)

Is this what you're talking about? Try hugging the red dots where I marked. Also when you beat Shiro again, theres a little backway you can go to. It's not too deep though. Instead of going to Suun, just go backwards.

forgot to add the picture :P

Ok, I did try where indicated, but I will try these again and see if there is just some 'wiggle' I needed! Thanks.

Well. tried again, including beating Shiro again, with no luck. Is there a way to get to that south-east most part of Raisu during the mission (just above the left yellow arrow in above pic)?

Hi,

I recently started cartographing with another version of the .tpf file that shows all the unrevealed areas in red. I was wondering if someone give me the download link to the version u guys are using--the one that uses white outlines but tanned coloring inside?? If you could also post one for Elona, that would be sweet.

oops, forgot to do the tanglewood copse one. I think you hug the wall in the Arborstone explorable, exiting from Tanglewood.

Elite,

I'm not sure what you are asking here. Do you want a screen of a completely fogged texmod map?
Or do you want some kind of road map that shows you how to walk to the next place? If so, the quests lead you there and the green arrow on your compass shows the direction. And the place one quest ends the next one begins (usually). Just follow the primary ones and you'll be fine.

This is such a fustrating title to get...

which is the texmod package you guys are using? mine still shows the green stuff. I am probably looking straight past it but cant see it at MrGuildBois link above.

then I can post my stupid map for you all to point at and go hahahahaha and call me a noob for missing a really obvious area
