3 things. 1. I do not delete the population file from each "slot" still works. 2. Population scanner is nice to have to identify fur types and diamonds. Id rather not waste months and years hoping I spawn something. It still took me an entire weekend of enjoyment to find a Gold/Diamond fur type. 3. I load into the map once then for every reset stay at main menu and check population scanner, not what I want...exit, delete population, restart game, check scanner, repeat. Note- resetting population to roll a diamond fur type is possible but could take a lot of resets. I got lucky with melan diamond tiger :) took 15 hrs to find and my enjoyment/excitement was still sky high!
Thank you for your time and so much effort I know you had to have put into this! But after having restarted 3 times already and being terminally ill. I just don't even want to try and deal with any of this. It's everything I can do just to play to begin with. Happy Hunting😊! And thanks again!
Thanks for the video it is very helpful. From what I have read online, population 5, 7, and 15 might be the trophy lodges, not actual maps. So be careful about resetting them if you don't want to lose your trophies.
Very detailed explanation thanks. Be nice if there was an option built into the game. Also be nice if the .223 could do more than barely hit a single lung of a 16 lb fox 😢. 🤘😎
I lost my game files a few years ago and started a new game. I had all my DLC's in the new game, but none of my maps reset animal populations. I will try this as I now haven't played the game in a couple of years.
@@MidWestMix no, unfortunately. The respawn rates will remain the same as that's a function of the game's algorithm. This just redownloads a population file that replaces the old population. Happy hunting!
@@FalxHunter do you know why the game does that? Or if there’s any work around me? It’s extremely annoying to have to pay in game money to have spawns work
@MidWestMix I have found that logging out completely from the game then coming back in at the top of every rotation works for me. This is the way it used to be before the main menu exploit was a thing. Try it and tell me if it works!
im having another problem...there is no animals on any maps i go to...i mean no animals....how do i fix that....there is no vid ive seen on this problem
Another tip for console players. You need 2 xboxs or a friend to help your MAIN character get to your RESET MAP.. if you have 2 consoles. 2 Xbox live accounts are also needed.. friend is WAY CHEAPER.. LOL

Thanks a lot. I don't need to hate grind anymore.

@@robertflint4115 if you’re on pc you can get a mod that makes it far better and more realistic
Great video again!

Thanks, I learned some new things!
So I’m doing a grind and I have to sleep 1 min forward to get deer to spawn in at every zone I hunt. Will this fix that?

It's not the result of resetting your own populations though, right? Also, what do you play on?
Very good video, glad I could help with it.
So you can’t reset your main accounts maps?
On console?
Does it also clear kill pressure??
yes

This does not work.
Thanks
Great
Hi Falk Games! 👋 I sent you a message on FB a good few days ago. Did you ever see it?
