Avowed Interactive Maps & Locations

New Map Renderer

The interactive map has been completely rebuilt with a new WebGL2-based renderer, replacing the previous engine (leaflet). This affects all game websites and the THGL Companion App.

What's improved

• Map rendering is significantly faster and smoother, especially when zooming and panning
• Icons and markers are rendered more efficiently, even with thousands on screen
• Smoother player movement

3D Perspective Mode

• Right-click and drag to tilt and rotate the map
• On mobile, use two fingers to rotate and tilt while zooming
• Height indicators show elevation differences between markers when tilted
• New compass and map controls (3D toggle, zoom, reset view) next to the existing action buttons

New Settings

• Dynamic icon sizing: control how marker icons scale when zooming in and out (toggle + intensity slider in Icon Sizes settings)
• Trace line style: choose between dots (default) or connected line

Tooltip Improvements

• Tooltips now reposition automatically to stay within the map area
• Improve scrolling inside long tooltip descriptions

Text Labels

• Labels scale consistently with zoom level

Other Changes

• Responsive ad layout: smaller ad format on short browser windows to avoid overlapping map controls

Overwolf in-game overlays are not updated yet — I'd love to get your feedback on the new renderer first before rolling it out there. Let me know if you notice anything off!

Filter Macro Categories

Games with many filter groups now organize related groups under collapsible categories, making the sidebar much easier to scan!

• Palia — Bugs, Foraging, Fishing, Hunting, Lumberjacking, Hotspots
• Wuthering Waves — Echo Sets, Monster Rarity, Spawn Sources
• Avowed — Combat, Gathering, Interactables
• Pax Dei — Crafting Skills
• Blue Protocol: Star Resonance — NPCs, Documents, Monster Hunts
• Satisfactory — Resources, Deposits
• Infinity Nikki — Location Types, Collectibles
• Palworld — Pals
• Duet Night Abyss — NPCs
• Once Human — Creatures

Categories have their own All/None toggle and progress bar, and collapse to hide all child groups at once.

Unified Filter Sidebar

The entire filter sidebar has been reworked for a consistent, compact look:

• All filter groups, categories, drawings, and my filters now share the same interaction pattern — chevron expand, All/None toggle, and progress bar
• The top section (map selector, presets, global filters) has been restyled to match — smaller, utilitarian text with count badges
• Drawings and My Filters sections are now collapsed by default to reduce clutter

Settings Dialog Rework

• Settings are now organized into clear visual sections (Map Behavior, Accessibility, Trace Line, Audio Alerts, Labels, Icon Sizes)
• Reset Interface button moved to the bottom and now properly resets ALL UI settings — not just icon sizes

I'd love to hear your feedback on the new layout! Let me know if any categories are missing or if you'd like groups organized differently for your game.

Avowed Map Update - Anniversary Update

Updated the map data for the Avowed Anniversary Update. No new regions or maps were added by the update, but there are significant data improvements across all existing regions.

New Filter: God Totems

God Totem shrines and fragments now have their own dedicated God Totems filter group (28 types). Previously these were mixed in with Quest Items. This includes all 4 god shrines (Oathbinder, Schemer's Offering, Huntmaster's Spoils, Eyes of the Obscured) and their 24 collectible fragments (Agate Eye, Ruby Eye, Golden Scale of Justice, etc.). They now use the in-game God Totem minimap icon.

New POI: God Shrine Locations

God Shrine altar locations are now shown as God Shrine POIs under Locations.

New POI: Pargrunen Cache

Pargrunen Cache locations are now tracked under Locations.

Improved Spawn Data

Significant increase in tracked spawn locations across all regions:

• Emerald Stair, Dawnshore, Galawain's Tusk, Shatterscarp - thousands of new spawn points for chests, consumables, herbs, enemies, and quest items
• Dungeons and sub-areas (Naku Tedek, Grotto, Magran's Breath, Abandoned Mine, Sand Dungeon, Thirdborn, Northern Paradis) also received major data improvements

New Enemy Types

Many new enemy variants discovered across all combat tiers, including Dreamthrall variants, Sporeling types, Delemgan variants, Bear subspecies, additional Xaurip ranks, and more.

New Consumables & Weapons

New food items (Pepper, Cucumber, Eggplant, Carrot, Fiorian Rice, and more) and weapon types now tracked.

Multi-language support

The THGL app now auto-detects your system language on first launch. You can also manually change the language anytime in Dashboard Settings. This feature is not available in the Overwolf apps. Note, that the map language support varies per game.

Marker Labels

Everyone can now display text labels above map markers for easier identification. This is especially helpful for colorblind users or when navigating crowded maps.

How it works

• Click the settings icon next to any filter in the sidebar
• Set the Label option to control when labels appear:
• Off - No label (default)
• Always - Label always visible
• In Range - Label only shows when within alert range
• Hotkey - Label shows while holding the Toggle Labels hotkey

High CPU

Fixed high CPU usage and lag spikes during gameplay.

High Contrast Markers

You can now customize the marker outline in Settings: choose color, opacity, and thickness.

Username and Avatar

You can now change your username and avatar for node comments at th.gl/support-me/account. This lays the groundwork for more account features - cloud backup and profile sync are next.

Close Behavior

You can now configure whether closing the THGL Companion App minimizes to tray or exits completely.

Elevated Auto Start

Optimized how the app launches with admin privileges on Windows startup. This should fix remaining UAC prompt issues.
