X4: Foundations – Locations of All 30 Data Vaults (As of v8.0 / v9.0)
A comprehensive list of sector names and exact coordinates to complete Boso Ta's quest "Historical Logs"
and the timeline achievement "Historian"
in X4: Foundations.
Essential Tips for Your Own Search:
- The Long-Range Scanner Mk2 detects objects ahead of the ship up to a distance of 200 km, within a cone of 120° horizontally and 90° vertically.
- It is best to scan in all 4 directions from the center of the sector (by rotating your ship). Wait a few moments after each scan to allow the ping to reach distant objects. I also performed this scanning process in all 6 outer corners of each sector — each roughly 200 km away from the center.
- Detected data vaults are highlighted in the cockpit with pulsating purple rings, and they appear as purple question marks on both the radar (gravidar) and the sector map (until they are identified as a data vault from close range).
- With the exception of "The Void", all data vaults are located directly on the sector plane (often incorrectly referred to as the ecliptic).
