Players still read the thread, but you should also check the thread yourself.
Two spots in Kaineng are on the map in #3 and explained in #4, spots 15 and 20.
The spots at Senji's and in Luxon area are not in the list of frequently missed spots, skip them and get the 0.001% you get there somewhere else I guess.

I have been using the cartographer made easy texmod, and I am 99.9% done... Now, I can see various spots that are uncovered, but I have tried to uncover these from all angles for an extensive amount of time. Any tricks on how to get some of those hard to get places?

Ancient,
Try comparing your spots to the ones on the screenshots in posting #3.
If they match, how/where to reach them is explained in posting #4.
Edbert,
I think it can be reached in the explorable area, start from Ran Musu Gardens.

With a non-canthan character it is much tougher. I used the exploit in Eredon Terrace and got 0.5%, that in conjunction with the portion on newbie island I had missed got me over 100%. If you have 99.8 without Eredon do that and you're all set, the one where you get a preist to run through the portal then you use a Sin skill to teleport through and stay "explorable".
Doing the map checks is really easy. I'd offer to do one for you but I'd get flooded with requests. Read the instructions, I found the paint-dot-net tool to be the simplest.
I should add that since I got GMC in Cantha I've finished the legendary cartographer title as well :-)

if i'm not mistaken those areas are not reachable.... but i could be wrong... i don't remember mapping them for my grandmaster.... but it would be a lot easier to tell if you had texmod loaded

lupul6666,
The help is already there.
Take the Kaineng map in post number 3 of this thread (the first one, not the updated).
Look at the map and you notice your spots are marked with 19 and 20.
Look in post number 4 of this thread and you will find the description where to explore.
This is a sticky posting for a reason

I agree, since I can't do texmod on my computer I tried mapchecking with GIMP (comparing my map with another map in layers as explained by the_jos )
I compared my "missed spots" with the commonly missed spots maps and guide (on the first page of this thread). Some of those places were the same so I followed the guide where to go, only in few cases I didn't manage to unfog those areas, but I didn't need all the map (maybe because I used the Eredon Terrace "glitch", mapped behing Shing Jea during boardwalk games and partially mapped Jade Quarry)
Finally with some aid from this thread my character just got GMC Cantha also getting her Legendary Cartographer.

I'm currently stuck at 97.5%
All i can see that i'm missing is JQ wich is deserted nowdays.
Will join a part this weekend so we'll see.
How mutch does it even give? 00.5%?
And do i need it?
Some people claim that you don't need it for the 100%
I don't wanna use any textmod! But some help would be needed.
Any tips on what i could have missed?
I have checked some common places in the Guide here but i got all of them i think.
Any help is appreciated!

JQ would give about 0.5%, so you would still be 2% short.
You only need it if you don't have the boardwalk area but it's an easy exploration if you can enter. Finding it elsewere would be a lot of scraping.
There are no map compares anymore but if you take a look at the first postings you will see a couple of maps with frequently missed spots marked and explained in the posting below that one.
Those screens are amongst the best around and comparing them to your own would give you 100%
Think it's posting #2 and #3 or #3 and #4.
One notorious spot is Eradon Terrace, check the wiki page if you don't have that one. It nets about 0.4/0.5 for most players.
Good luck exploring

Thx for the advice.
I'll do the Shadowstep glitch later on. That is one place i know i have left to explore.
Also i read the first page of the guide again and i notice ihave used if before, the common missed places that is.
It must be some fairly "big" place i have missed since i miss arround 02.5% atm. I have to take another look at a 100% map and mine.
Thx for now!

There are some great posts with people doing some brilliant work to help others in this thread, especially at the start.
Thanks alot
Just got my GMC Cantha and also Legendary Cartographer - was at 99.9% and spent 4 hours just going over everything for that last 0.1% - was worth it when I saw I got the title.. the worst of them all by far!

Ok got my Tyrian explorer title now & thought i'd finish this one off to
Points of interest are these really, i've 99.4% & having some real trouble with the remainder.
Small piece in the monastry overlook, quite a common one so ive heard, think it can be obtained via certain events?!
Jade Quarry, due to there never being anyone around
This 1 is just above this imperial sanctum mission, tryed running around the bridges round this area but cant seem to get it, theres also a small piece near dragon's throat, again tryed to get that via challenge but couldnt lol
These 2 small area's in the sunjiang distrist, cant seem to find my way to them at all.
Problem ive found alot of the time is your very limited to where you can go in factions, those arena's for example & the monastry overlook, unless theres an event going on or people in those arena's you've a very limited chance.
Any advice or help greatly appreciated
Nick

well let's see if I can help you out on some of those spots.....
the spot at sunjiang there is a shrine in the corner, and if you hug the walls in that area your small spot will turn to a vertical line like mine.
For Dragons Throat area do Vizunah Square and after the second wave area hug the wall (you should know when you get there).
For the spot near shiro I know you can get some of that from being banished. Hug the wall very closely and get into every crack you can. It took my a while before I finished off that area.
I am at 99.8% and have no clue where else to go. I've already gotten the blackspot on Eredon.
All I would need now is the Jade Quarry, but nobody is ever there. If anyone wants to try to get a group for it give me a PM or message me in game
