Just wondering if anyone has a working set of mesh files for the CoTF zones they would be willing to share. Default downloaded meshes work to an extent but every zone has areas that it just won't path through. Very frustrating when trying to work through the quests from this expansion.

Question - CoTF zone mesh files
- Thread starter Saetun
- Start date
what zone(s), and what spots?
some instances have "alternate states" that meshgen doesn't currently handle.
cotf introduced some really fucked up ways of handing their zones - a few of us had spent quite a lot of hours editing and trying to make the meshes as functional as possible, but there's likely spots that aren't perfect.
any edits made from existing meshes in the repo, can be checked and uploaded

Well so far almost done working through Ethernere Tainted West Karana and Bixie Warfront.
Ethernere both in and out of HA's is pretty bad. Multiple "Walls" throughout the zone that just stop your followers in their tracks. Fire "walls" and tunnels in HA's cause all kinds of issues. And things like the bandit camp at the top of the zone.
Bixie zones are just a nightmare. Spiderwebs, houses, and other invisible walls all over the place.
I realize these zones may just be impossible. It sucks how the open world zones and HA zones are the same but different in some ways which makes fixing the problem in one area, break it in another. Just was wondering if anyone had ever made a better set of files. I've been using afollow to force follow through known issue areas, but this often causes characters to get stuck in new and interesting ways as well. But I get it, there just may be little that can be done.

Those "walls' are boundaries for the various Heroic missions, and don't have any way to get around em. ETWK is probably the most affected zone, and using FollowMe is generally the best way to move around and get past them, then back to chase. Dead Hills has same things, but there's really not much to do there outside of HAs. Doing the progression quest there you'll run into each of them pretty much once. Neriak $th gate doesn'y seem to have much of them, Bixie warfront is again pretty much all HAs.
