@casper613 I thought this had been fixed. Like you it has driven me nuts. I put the game down for a few months. Then an update dropped for Xbox in december or january and all of a sudden I am getting the intended audio in relation to wind. Ironically, I now have intermittent silent auroa's. transistioning (any type) however seems to fix it. I have not made it to the new zone of contamination. My current stalker save is 230 days and I just finished repairing all the transmitters. If I get to ZoC and there are silent blizzards again...I don't even want to specualte how mad I'll be. Are you getting wrong wind audio across all regions? Is your save older than the most recent update on PC?

I was today years old when I realized I can search the overhead bins in the fusalage of the crashed plane in PV. Can't believe I have missed them SO many times!

Revolver under crate at preppers abandoned cache in Pleasant Valley. (The cache that is always present, next to the climb to get into Timberwolf Mtn.) Snowpants under crate at the crash site for the start episode 1. (survival mode)

still happening, on xbox series s.

I had vaughns rifle disappear on me, I restarted the game and it was back. Careful though, if you have saved after your loss I'm not sure youll get it back.

thats an older bug that drives me crazy. You will need to restart the game to fix. Just going back to the main menu is not enough. It is triggered when you have one of those pages open (cairn location etc) and tab to the right or left. To make this not happen you need to make sure you back out of those little menus (B button on xbox) and then tab left or right.

same issue. started with new DLC

if I can get Madden or MLB 23 at midnight on the dot I should be able to get this game that I have patiently WAITED to make a new save for over 2 months!

On Xbox, there is no dev console.

Thanks for the thought. My 44 day playthough was made specifically for figuring out if auroras are bugged for me or something else. Alas, I adjusted my sleep schedule to stay up all night. I am positive I have not missed one. Now granted, the weather on Stalker is pretty bad. Lots of snowy nights and blizzards. That being said, I really doubt DEV's want you to play 44 in-game days without an aurora. I made a custom playthrough with Stalker settings but bumped the aurora frequency from medium to high. That playthrough has experienced an aurora almost every clear night. So maybe I really do have terrible luck with my 44 day file, or my 214 day voyager run that took me to this thread in the first place. Hopefully I can get some clarification from the Dev's once the see my ticket.

I created a ticket. I'll let you guys know what Dev's say.

I was thinking the weather was part of the problem too, but I can't envision the Dev's wanting players to go such an extended period of time with no Aurora. 44 days in-game is a significant amount of real-world play time.

I started a new stalker survival mode. I was encouraged when there was an Aurora on night one. Unfortunately it has been 44 days and not one more. I suspect I am still suffering from some sort of glitch.

I have the same issue with aurora's not appearing in any region. I too took a hiatus but much more recently. I played ep 4 twice and then put the game down. I started playing again 2 days before the patch on sept 9th (?) I'm on Xbox

ok good call on the compass part. I counter argue that the flashlight still has a battery unlike everything else that comes to life. Also, functionality which is where my battery idea came from. Who runs around going, man, I hope there is an aurora tonight so I can use my flashlight?! Cheers!
