Diamond Hunting Made Easy: Quick Way to Find a Diamond Animal

1. Download the Animal Population Scanner tool:
   
   • Visit Nexus Mods[www.nexusmods.com].
     
   • Download and unpack the tool.
2. Launch the Animal Population Scanner tool:
   
   • Open the tool and select your desired reserve.
     
   • Locate the "animal_population_x" file in the list below and open it.
3. Check diamond population:
   
   • Select the tab for the desired animal species.
     
   • Look for the number next to the diamond icon, indicating the amount of spawned diamonds.
     
   • If there are diamonds present, proceed to step 4.
     
   • If there are no diamonds, close the game and delete the "animal_population_x" file.
     
   • Note: Disable Steam cloud saving to prevent the automatic restoration of deleted files.
     
   • Launch the game again to generate a new population file with fresh spawns.
     
   • Return to step 2 to continue the process.
4. Check the TR value:
   
   • If there are diamonds, check the TR value of the last diamond in the list.
     
   • Take note of this value as it will be useful in the second part of this guide.

1. Access theHunter: COTW Map tool:
   
   • Open the website[mathartbang.com].
     
   • Select your reserve.
2. Load your game save data:
   
   • Locate your "Saves" folder in %USERPROFILE%/Documents/Avalanche Studios/COTW.
     
   • Drag and drop the "Saves" folder into the designated area to the left of the map.
     
   • This action will load your population data into the tool.
3. Locate the desired animal species:
   
   • Select the reserve where you want to find the diamond animal.
     
   • Expand the desired species row in the list to the left of the map.
4. Find the highest-scoring spawn:
   
   • Look for the spawn row with a score greater than or equal to the TR value obtained in the previous part of this guide.
     
   • Expand that spawn row.
5. Identify the group with the highest score:
   
   • Within the expanded spawn row, locate the group row with the highest score.
     
   • This group should contain the diamond animal you seek.
6. Check the wandering cycle:
   
   • The wandering cycle of the selected group should appear on the map.
     
   • To narrow down the location, check the current time in either the Animal Population Scanner tool or the game itself.
     
   • Drag the topmost slider under the map to match the current time.
     
   • The irrelevant areas should now be filtered out so you should see only one area on the map.
7. Go and get that diamond harvest:
   
   • Return to the game and navigate to the indicated area on the map.
     
   • Use your tracking and hunting skills to locate and claim the diamond animal.
