Great it worked, - Thank you so much !
Ok. it worked before. Twice. Now its not anymore. It was about 100 hours from last map i've ever got (including lvl up map), i intentionally didn't played game besides checking spawns, no lvl up, no collecting maps, not even doing quests. So there is no way that cooldown was initiated again. No luck at all. Just no map spawn, every time empty tree. Camp in correct location, temp files deleted, solo lobby, PC, any condition is good, but its just doesn't work. i have no idea what to do, because i desperately need that lake isabella map to catch up with my friends, we never play online lobby, just private. Any ideas how to do it? I tryed hoping out sessions (Esc->camp) over and over again trough whole night (22 pm-5 am in game) no luck. Its just dont spawn at all.
I have succesfully done this trick, but once I cut off the internet too soon and loaded back in to see the treasure map was taken. Then after several days the treasure map wouldnt spawn at the location again despite me entering s solo lobby and spawning at a nearby camp before heading onwards to the same tree again.
Just tried on PC - Using Rocketstart launcher, there was no map spawning.
I did it on a private server, that me and my wife shares. Does this have to be a Solo private ?
It's been 2 days since I got a treasure map and it's not spawning at that tree. even after restarting my pc, game and respawning at my camp like 10 times
Hey I did everything correct and it worked but then i forgot to wait for the blink and now after 18 hours i repeated the steps but the map doesnt spawn.
Any idea?
If you go to the blackwater police dept and while standing outside send your camp to hennigans stead and it will go straight to where you want it in thieves landing
No time reset for me. is sure only temp file? other thing?
i did it , it worked and now it doesnt work.i did something wrong and now I waited 18 hours but the map isnt spawning
i tried your glitch and i tried others but none of them works when im on THREE days cooldown. this is my second time getting cooldown and i tried again to look if it spawned after 18 hours but it didnt. any ideas? pc
I did everything you said got a private lobby via the file, camp in hennigans stead close to thieves landing, deleted the temp files followed the video exact still no treasure map. Is there any other location the map would spawn? as most treasure map glitches have multiple location that the map could be (the collectables are re spawning after I've collected them tho)
If in the past 18hrs you had received a map in any manner (treasure map guy, looted from npc or chest, received from lockbox stash) you won’t receive another map spawn/loot until 18hrs later (real-time).
@@Quelxxx the map won't spawn in any other place but the tree right?
cause I've done other treasure maps glitches and the map spawns in 1 of 5 locations
Is there another location? either ways will try again after 24 hours and reply again
I used this tree as it is convenient, and doesn’t need running all over the place. Just spawn at camp and boom, it’s at the tree. However, yes, maps can spawn in many other locations, including treasure hunters.
Hi if i delete those files will i lose any progress? Thanks in advance for your help
thanks bro it took around an hour for lake isabella but its worth
It works, but i don't wait for menu blink after reconnect and i have 18h cooldown now, before that cooldown i take 4 maps
My map doesn't spawn for me what do I do, I made sure to do all the steps perfectly and it just doesn't spawn
waited out the cooldown and still no map spawn
How much mo why would you make for all maps total??
did everything up to deleting temp files, but when i load back in after, my camp is in a different location, how do i fix this problem
As mentioned in the vid, you need a private session so that your camp will remain in the same place. Here’s how: th-cam.com/video/5rYNoGLlINA/w-d-xo.htmlsi=HQ7IGZcRwnJhx0zo
It’s not spawning on the tree! I never collected any map besides the ones from the post office. Does this trigger the three day cooldown as well?
It works very well for me thank you! One time I picked up a treasure map by accident and no nothings spawning for me… :( it’s been almost a week since I last picked up a treasure map and now they’re not spawning anymore. Anyone has any tips ?
Map spawns also depend on a bit of luck under normal circumstances. If at anytime you receive a map into your satchel, whether you plucked it off a tree or a treasure hunter, or even if it came from your lockbox, there will be a cooldown of 18hrs, before you can get even a chance of a treasure map spawn
did it ever come back ? it’s been days for me and still hasn’t come back on the tree
Same here... Does it come back, what do we have to do? @@originalgangsterloc
Do you have to be a certain level for the map to spawn its not spawning for me in general
So i tried again after 18 hours of last tresure hunter - and it does not work. I created a new solo server, i spawned the camp, i delete temp file, go back in and no treasure map. For some reason you only mention steam and epic game - is this the same for Rocketstar launcher?!
for deleted files, won't it affect the game or other data besides RDR online? because I see some comments that say up to thousands of files
and is that temp folder hidden?
because I have seen that in the user file there is no folder that is the same as in the video unless I open the hidden file
I'm trying this way
btw thanks to u for this video
It’s a hidden folder for sure. Just set it to visible via window settings. Temp files…… are temp files. They are not meant to be permanent and won’t affect most, if not all programs. It just so happens that R* does it this way. It doesn’t change your gameplay in anyway either.
so deleting the file is safe right
the location is local disk c/users/(mypcname)/appData/local/temp
and delete all files not folder
is that the right way?
sorry if asking too much
just making sure not to make a mistake
Do you get the xp from getting the treasure
hi - many thanks for tip. however after first time when I've took it map doesnt apper again - i did all as you've mentioned with ethernet disconneting and so on ... any suggestion ?
what happen if i allready collected it before?
I don’t have the user2 file can you help
Where do i find that file location i cant find it
I've tried it before but after i disconnect the map doesn't spawn anymore, just wondering, what's the file in your description for?
Nvm, it doesn't always spawn, i just need to go to camp if it doesn't spawn, thanks!
It will work even without tinkering with the files but the conditions are as such:
1. Solo Private session is needed.
2. In the past 18hrs, you cannot have received a treasure map in whatever manner.
@@Quelxxx Thanks so much, that explains it. I have another question, if I quit the game and want to do the same again, do I get the cooldown? I quit by disconnecting the internet right after picking the map and then quitting the game.
@@Quelxxx i just tested it and it works, i just need to remember to disconnect whenever i pick up a map. Thanks so much for the knowledge!!
does it still work? Because i tried it, and it is more than 18 hours since my last treasure map, but it dosnt show. Is there something with the cooldown being 3 days?
If in the past 18hrs you had received a map in any manner (treasure map guy, looted from npc or chest, received from lockbox stash) you won’t receive another map spawn/loot until 18hrs later (real-time). It was never 3 days, that’s just a misconception someone came up with and everyone went with it.
Means timing was off. The moment the dialogue appears that you received map, you need to immediately disconnect. I’ve done this for all my 3 characters and they’ve all gone off well.
@@Quelxxx it is a bit tricky, cuz i didnt have a lan cable, now i have one, but something tells me that the cooldown is 24 hours, cuz i set a timer to 18 hours and i couldnt spawn it
How do I disable the internet on my PC? Or do I just remove the cable?
Either use airplane mode, remove/put back cable, or turn off Ethernet (if you are using an Ethernet cable)
What should I do if I didn't disconnect my ethernet in time. Is the only option to wait 18 hours?
I cant find the files location, is it necessary to delete them? (Im using the rockstar games launcher, not steam, nor epic games)
Be sure that you can see hidden files. The folder is hidden, so you have to show hidden elements
@@zibiesyea, found them and removed them, but the map doesn't spawn. I had an encounter where I bought a treasure map, after 10-15 seconds I realised that and insta quited the game.
@@thegodless100 i tried this last night, it did not work. But i think my wife whos account im trying this on, had already picked up a map some hours before.
@@zibies2 questions, does the NPC encounter give the map cool down, and does it matter if I'm on rockstar launcher?!
I have absolutly no idea. Im on rocketstar myself, and was wondering the same.
I think ill give it another try tonight - if I get it working ill be sure to let you know
Very well done tutorial, I've done everything step by step but it didn't work for me. I have the private lobby thing. What can I do??
Have you taken into account the cooldown of 18hrs since the last time you received a map?
@@Quelxxx does the brochures count? If not then I didn't get any map since last week
Maps that the game give you every 5 levels count as well. Any rewards that involve a map going into your lockbox counts too.
@@Quelxxx oh ok, that might be a problem too. Well if I want to proceed glitch I need to delete the temp files every time I do it?
What should i do if the treasure map didn't spawn in that point? Just spawn back to camp?
Means you are on a cooldown. If you had received treasure maps earlier through any means, there would be a cooldown of 18 hours before a map can spawn.
@@Quelxxx ok, I waited more than 18 hours but the map didn't spawn, what should I do?
@@Quelxxx what if I got it through a rank up reward would there still be a cooldown
i cant find the temp files
Dont know what i am doing wrong, i have followed the video and did everything as you said. Not only does the map not spawn at all for me and it has been well over 18 hours since my last treasure map, no collectables are respawning in thieves landing either.
@@kirajin7533 yeah, heard that as well. however a friend got a map by leveling up yesterday which he also collected and 5 minutes later he found a treasure hunter.
@@BackiePlays Levelling up doesn't count. I also have maps from levelling up on my mail. The 3 day cooldown includes maps on trees, treasure hunters and maps from enemies.
@@politecat9207 just tried again and it worked, i managed to get about 10 maps before probably messing something up with the timing.
@@BackiePlays Yeah basically the more you do this glitch, the easier it gets. I've been doing it since 2020 and it becomes instinctive after a while. Soon you'll be able to do it again.
What if I get a treasure map from leveling up is that still a 18 hour wait?
Yes, if you take the map out of the post office or lock box you will get the cool down time. Also there is a way to do this at bards crossing.
You don't need to clear files for treasure maps, as long as you DC you internet before the timer kicks in.
Yeah, but I think there’s only a need to show one. Thieves landing is just more convenient.
hey i can't find the map and the only map i received was in the lockbox what i can i do?
Any map you received, even if it’s from the lockbox to your satchel, will initiate an 18hr cooldown, before you’ll be able to receive any map. I suggest you wait it out, then try again.
Bro how do i delete filés on psn
whenever I quit my game, my camp location automatically changes to another random place :(
Are you in a private session? If you are, it would not change. I actually have multiple vids of me collecting from this glitch. From when I had 100+ gold, til I now have like 1300+/1400+
@@Quelxxx I get on a private session before leaving, set my camp at the right place, but when I quit the game and launch it again, the game puts me in a regular lobby and changes my camp location. I only know how to get on private sessions by using the resource monitor.
does this work on playstation???
does the game have to be on steam or epic, can it work on rockstar?
@Quelxxx I couldn't get to work so just got it on steam but now more problems
What do i do?
Mine doesent work at all I do all that
It doesn't work for me...
How do I know what temp files i have to delete to the glitch? I mean, theyre like 500 files
and if i've playing on a private session before the glitch (deleting temp files and the camp) i need to change the "password" of the startup.meta for this to work?
also the collectibles haven't reappeared which indicates that something is wrong, even though I did everything the same.
No need for that. Just login as per normal into a private session. Neither that file or the password needs to change.
Collectibles appear only after you clear the temp files, that’s how this works.
they dont respawn for me (the collectibles), i need the collector role for them to show after I delete the temp files?
You can do airplane mode instead of unplug wifi. I think it's better than to break ur port
Unplug Wi-Fi? I just clicked on a button. 😂 there are multiple ways of killing internet with just 1 button anyway.
@@Quelxxx yes, im using wifi dongle or something. It's plugged to my usb port on my pc since I haven't bought ethernet cable yet. But i think if someone were to use ethernet cable, they can use airplane mode instead of unplug? Im not sure.
5 July 2023, working perfectly
For the life of me, I can't get my internet to disconnect fast enough. Any advice?
@Quelxxx as soon as I start to pick up the map I alt tab out, go to my wifi in the system tray and click disconnect.
You should already have the wifi off window open. That way, when you alt tab, you go straight to that window and just click off. Having to open the system tray and then going into wifi and then clicking off will be too late
We agree that at the beginning of the video the treasure map isn't on the tree, but that you made it appear by manipulating the game files ? Shouldn't I wait for it to appear with a bit of luck? Because I can't manage to appear it with your method and more than 18 hours.
Instead there is a enemycamp spawning all the time
This can work at like level 3 right?
Great video , but I don’t understand that temporarily files :(
doesnt work, not for everyone at least, actually from friends i asked to perform this the ratio was 5/22 so not realy usefull
Most people I have assisted with this was on a map cooldown, hence the maps not appearing. There’s also the RNG in a map actually appearing. What this does is to exchange your odds as it narrows down to 1 location. Once you get it, it just keeps coming.
@@Quelxxx people did wait even for 10 days, still no go by majority of us, so not having luck would be a wast understatement :D
The hardest is creating a solo lobby. It just doesn’t work for longer than 2 minutes.
Here’s how to do a permanent solo lobby in order to get this to work. th-cam.com/video/5rYNoGLlINA/w-d-xo.html
Can you get banned? If not why.
I have no answer to that question. I’ve done it, I’m still standing is all I can say.
@@Quelxxx Ok thank you anyway for your time! It doesn’t seem to be working. Any tips?
At any time when you have received a map via the treasure hunter, tree, and lockbox for whatsoever reason, there will be an 18hr cooldown to when the next map will even appear.
This method, once your cooldown effectively passes, seek to increase the chances that a map will spawn for you on that tree. However, using a private session will be needed, as your camp would need to be at the same location.
can this work on console?
wtf dude... where is gta online glitch videos? 😕
Chill!! They’ll be coming later when I go back again and start testing them!! ☺️ but I appreciate the reminder!! Haha
TLDR
Oh my god, THANK YOU!!! It works and is so easy! I've done all the grinding for gold before with an old character, I was really bummed out at the idea of trying to get it all again to reunlock all the roles. Now I can just have fun!
🥰🥰
