📋 About This Mod

Treasure Maps Randomized

Mod Description

Treasure maps 1 to 10 are scattered randomly across bandit camps.

Features

Treasure maps ranging from 1 to 10 can no longer be found on their default locations. They will now be distributed randomly to bandit

boss chests across Skyrim (Specifically, in any of the nine Holds). Their related treasure chests were not touched!

Due to the nature of this plugin, finding one or even more treasure maps on a single boss chest is possible, but also very unlikely. The more modded bandit camps you have on your load order, the harder it will be to find every treasure map.

Example roll:

Trace: Treasure Map I Location: Cracked Tusk Keep

Trace: Treasure Map II Location: Bilegulch Mine

Trace: Treasure Map III Location: Halted Stream Camp

Trace: Treasure Map IV Location: Gallows Rock

Trace: Treasure Map V Location: Redoran's Retreat

Trace: Treasure Map VI Location: Treva's Watch

Trace: Treasure Map VII Location: Bilegulch Mine

Trace: Treasure Map VIII Location: Broken Helm Hollow

Trace: Treasure Map IX Location: Robber's Gorge

Trace: Treasure Map X Location: Cragslane Cavern

PS: The maps are distributed once as you are done creating a new character. Using stock save files means that the maps are always going to be assigned to the same locations.

Compatibility

This plugin should be compatible with everything, but I recommend loading it as lower as possible.

Should be loaded after (below) the following mods:

Suinier's Evolving Locations

Patches available for:

Book Covers Skyrim (Thanks to GhoulSmasher)

Legacy of The Dragonborn (Thanks to zinghunt)

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

Treasure Maps Randomized scatters Skyrim's ten treasure maps across bandit boss chests in all nine Holds, removing them from their default locations. It's a lightweight compatibility-friendly tweak for players who want a fresh hunt, with patches for Book Covers Skyrim and Legacy of The Dragonborn.

✨ Key Features

Treasure maps 1-10 are removed from their default locations and randomly distributed to bandit boss chests across all nine Holds.
The treasure chests themselves are untouched, so the rewards remain in their original spots.
Maps are assigned once per new character; stock save files will always get the same locations.
Compatible with most mods, with patches available for Book Covers Skyrim and Legacy of The Dragonborn.
Load order recommendation: place it as low as possible, after Suinier's Evolving Locations.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Fresh take on treasure hunting—no more knowing exactly where to go every playthrough.
  • Lightweight and compatible with most setups, plus patches for two popular mods.
  • Adds replay value without changing gameplay mechanics, perfect for veteran players.

⚠️ Cons

  • Small mod with 55 endorsements, so it's not widely tested—expect potential bugs.
  • Random distribution can be frustrating if you're hunting a specific map; you might clear many camps.
  • More bandit camp mods in your load order make finding all maps harder, which could be a con for completionists.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want to rediscover the thrill of treasure hunting without knowing the map locations by heart. It's also great for modded playthroughs with extra bandit camps, adding a layer of unpredictability. Skip if you prefer guaranteed rewards or don't like randomized content.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Load this mod as low as possible in your load order, especially if you use Suinier's Evolving Locations.
  • If you use Book Covers Skyrim or Legacy of The Dragonborn, grab the respective patches to avoid conflicts.
  • Start a new character to get a fresh random distribution; using an existing save will lock the locations.
