Maybe make the chests like the spots when diving?
Basically you would need to have the shovel and find the spot where your map leads you. If you find it you will see a spot on the ground to know where you can dig. You will be the only one that is able to see the spot and the only one that is able to dig the treasure up just like how the diving system works.

I would think if the map was clear enough and had like a big old red X on the dig spot the diving dots wouldn't be needed good idea tho.

Maybe there could also be an item to complement or go with the treasure maps. Like a "metal detector" that would act as a sensor and would tell you that a chest is near bye in the form of a pop up message. It would be similar to the goggles where you would mearly have to have it in your possession to gain the benefit.

How about treasure maps that allow a personal treasure to be found (one that other players can't find) and randomly spawn it... and on top of that they give you a time limit as to how long you have to find it before they expire?

They could have loots/gralats/hats/etc in them, and possibly even the first one a quest item that introduces the concept somehow?

The maps would show quite a small area so I eould prefer if I had to dig around instead o knowin exactly where it is

I like the time limit Idea

That way we don't have like 10,000 treasures spawned all over the world map - they eventually die off...

Just wanted to point out that like Mr. Sicx demonstrated We can all ready pretty much make and do our own treasure maps. With a little bit of photo editing and the use of the new layering system for furniture you could hide something behind or underneath something in your player or gh and take a pic then set it as your guild and/or status pic. Which isn't hard to make with a noob account and about 20 minutes of work doing pyrate bay and collecting all the hidden gralat chests. Then set the pic in the treasure map display form as your spare gp and even as your status pic if you wish as a point of reference for players trying to find the hidden item in your house or gh.

Yes its a little bit of work but once the initial work is done acquiring a spare guild if needed it wouldn't take much to change it or update it afterwords.

For once i fully agree with mr. buran.
until we get our content (if we ever) we are more than capable of making our own fun.

I'm working on a treasure hunt mini game type thing in my player house should be up by the end of the weekend.

I made this thread a bit back

Just wanted to say my treasure map gnome hunt quest thing is up and running my player house. Even tho somebody has all ready stole my idea lol

Just bumping this because, I was wondering if there has been any progress made on making this a reality???

I'm thinking just make it so they can be found from diving for loot or baddie drops and the chests will give loot items or small amounts of gralats.

Ya it has.

OoOoOoOoOoOhhh :o
