Awesome!  Our cluster has been running smooth for a week now.  The nice part about doing a totally custom map is you control everything, and we're actually finding that with the redesign we could probably be happy on a single server for some time.  I did a little write up about the different island variations and I started trying to figure out where different resources spawn, so check out this thread too.  I'm not sure how correct it is, but hopefully as people try things we'll learn more.

 

 

Do any of your islands have Golden Age bosses/ruins? Or have you figured out how to make a specific island spawn GA ruins/bosses?

One point of clarification from @SixxGunZ, @NodOff, and a few others.  The directions above are necessary when running a custom grid of any sort.  I completely re-designed my 2x2 grid for our cluster, so it was necessary to get updated map images onto all the servers.  However, one issue we  ran into before we went fully custom was the lack of map images on expansions servers, and that can be fixed by uploading the map files to your expansion servers.

You can either copy the files from your main server's atlasmain/ShooterGame/ServerGrid folder to the appropriate folder on the expansion server, or you can generate the files via the Server Grid Editor.  The editor does come with the JSON file for the standard 2x2 setup.

Thanks, I'm planning to make a custom map now that my other 3 server pre-orders have been fulfilled, so this guide will def come in handy.

Open the big map that came with the ServerGridEditor and check "Golden Age Ruin maps".

 

Where is this setting/option?

OMG TY SO MUCH! I can confirm this as a working fix on my Nitrado server as well.

Np, just glad to have found a fix, just glad to have found something that worked, since treasure hunting is half the fun in this game!  

For those with custom maps, if this doesn't work, check this recent thread:

Do you have a invite link for that discord?  Thx

Made an account to ask the same. 

I was able to fix this issue on my server by renaming thesemap files from the default .png, to .jpg
