Your Game Debug Logs

The game generates a debug log each time you play. This can be very useful for the dev team to diagnose problems, especially crashes.

If you ever encounter a crash or the game becomes unresponsive, please report it to our Public Bug Database with as much detail as possible, and attach the debug log. 

On a PC

The log is written to the data directory for the game. For Steam, this would look like:
C:\TheDirectoryYouInstalledSteamTo\steamapps\common\TheLongDark\tld_Data\output_log.txt

On a Mac

For Mac, the debug log is written to:
~/Library/Logs/Unity/Player.log

Note that ~ above is your home folder (little house icon).

It's possible the Library folder will be hidden. You can make it show up by typing the following into Terminal: 
chflags nohidden ~/Library

 

The debug log gets overwritten each time you play, so remember to send it along before starting up the game again.
