Turn VSync or Vertical Sync on. It tries to lock your framerate to that of your monitor's refresh rate to avoid screen-tearing

if you cant achieve the same FPS as your monitors' refresh rate, try turning down your game settings

What are your game settings?

 That’s ALOT of timber wolves

Vanilla Stalker, these are two groups of wolves, one from further down the road, and one from next to the prison 

HELP! They're escorting me to prison!

My suggestion is very simple, when auto walk is enabled, a little icon should appear in the corner to indicate that it is on. It could be something like a walking figure with a circular arrow around it.  
 

There have been many times where I think auto walk is off, but it's actually on and I almost walk off a cliff. And I've heard some people have fallen or even died because auto walk was mistakenly on.

The problem is "horror game" is not a great name for it. 
there really should be two catagoreys of scary game:

Horror and Unsettling. TLD in my opinion falls into the latter.

Horror should be a game that focuses on the scary elements, whereas unsettling is just that, a game with an unsettling nature 

Does anybody have the update on EGS yet?

I guess that's why they call it the long dark!

I was crafting a new bow but it got dark seconds before I could finish it lol

The point of having only two accessory slots and more than two options is so you have to choose what to bring, and can't just wear the same things all the time. That's also why there are limited amounts of clothing slots, to force you to choose

Spoilers for how to get the code:

Secret little spot!

Sometimes the admins can be slow to respond. This seems like a very strange issue, especially since it broke on both windows and macOS. 

A disk write error could be a whole number of issues, but since you had it on both OSs I don't know where to begin troubleshooting. 

This seems like a complex bug if it is one. Only Hinterland can help you with it. 

Unfortunately, the best thing you can do is wait for them to respond, or try another installation method.

You could try installing the game through a different service, such as epic games store, if that fails then the issue is truly the game files themselves. 

One other issue could be your antivirus preventing the installation, do you have the same antivirus on both machines? And if so, try disabling it.

That's all I can help you with, good luck!

Maybe this'll help with visibility: 

@Admin

Would it be possible to have access to the font package used throughout the game? I have some projects (non-commerical) that would benefit from the font used in-game. 

Does anybody have the file, or can the admins provide it? And what rights are we allowed with respect to using it? 

Thanks!

Well there aren't really many situations where this would come into play. The only locks in survival mode are some of the lock-box caches in TFTFT. And if we could pick them open, it would defeat the whole purpose. 
Additionally locks on car trunks and lockers already have a solution: pry-bar. Adding lock-picking would make the pry-bar almost useless.

So overall lock picking, while cool, wouldn't add much to the game.

My apologies @SpanishMoss, I missed that you had answered my question so perfectly. Yes, that is exactly the scientific answer I was hoping for! Thank you kindly.

No problem!

I got all five of the variant items on day one.

LOL I actually have a stalker save from the pre-patch as well with all the varients in cater dam

Unfortunately for some reason they won't go on a gun rack, I've tried. It's probably just an oversight by the Devs 

Finally brought them all together. 

All of them are fully loaded, with bullets freshly produced from Bleak Inlet

Vaughns: 

Barb's:

Curator's:

If you have cloud saves enabled, you can sync your saves. 

If you didn't have that enabled, or it didn't work, you can still access the physical files where your save data was stored, and copy it over.
But it sounds like that data isn't accessible anymore haha 

Итак, после того, как вы сохранили и вышли из игры, сохранение не удалось, и теперь, когда вы открываете игру, вы играете в эпизоде 3? Или вы все еще на 4 эпизоде, но он не смог сохранить ваш прогресс и откатился к более раннему сохранению?

(Google Translated)

At this point i think it has to have something to do with your save file, it's probably corrupt

I had an issue where my game failed to save due to "Not enough space" despite having plenty of space. I lost about 40min of progress, but other than that the save remains intact. 

If you haven't already, send in your save file for that game to the hinterland via a support ticket, sometimes they can fix it. 

Let us know if you need help finding your save file's location

SpanishMoss, yes it is 12 gigabytes of RAM (8 and 4 now).  I am planning to increase RAM to 24 this coming week by switching out a 4 with a 16.

I have my graphic settings on low already but I will try increasing the amount of memory the game is allocated by looking for that option in the quality section.

Thank you for your suggestions.

 

Yeah, the setting is called "Texture Streaming", try setting it higher as it will allow the game to use more memory.

And setting all the texture-based settings to lower values should also help.

Let me know if that works for you!

12 Megabytes or 12 Gigabytes? There's a very large difference lol.

And yes, the newer version of the game probably uses more memory.

Try lowering your graphics settings, particularly tree billboard distance and texture resolution, as these will contribute to a larger memory footprint. If possible, try increasing the amount of memory the game is allocated, I believe that setting is also in the quality section.
