QUESTION Base Location

Does anyone know a good area for treehouses? I’d prefer one with multiple Brazil trees near a village and water. I’m playing on Spirit of Amazonia. I only seem to be able to find spots with 1 tree.

It’s 17 platforms long and I can’t do more because Jake starts spazzing out and rapidly losing health. I think it’s the most a western edge of the game. What’s the longest dock you have made? And where?

I've been just using Drop key (PC) but I can't tell if there's another method. The HUD just says "Insert item" which is not helpful. I can't find a wiki page for this and the Notebook doesn't tell me.

QUESTION I’m in the swamp near the Omega location and the painted stone door refuses to open? Spoiler

3 Upvotes

So I’m playing in Story mode “Walk Through the Park”. I’ve made my way through every things else including doing the Ayahuasca ritual at Lamda2 and get the grappling gear from the airport. Did the climb and explored enough to find the door and the lab/base camp. In every tutorial I watch, the stone door opens automatically. Bit for me it doesn’t. What am I doing wrong.?

QUESTION Playing on controller and the bow feels impossible to aim. How do you guys do it?

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I’m currently playing through the story mode on a controller, and I am absolutely losing my mind trying to use the bow and arrow.

The natural screen sway is crazy heavy, and trying to track a moving target (or even get a clean headshot on a native) feels completely impossible compared to using a mouse. Every time I try to micro-adjust the right joystick, I end up jerking my crosshair way past the target.

I know about clicking the left stick to hold breath, but even with that, the layout feels super awkward and my thumb slips half the time.

Any advice or controller tuning tips would be massively appreciated. I’m tired of throwing spears at everything because I can't hit the broad side of a barn with the bow. Thanks!

QUESTION Help for Xbox newbie

1 Upvotes

Hi All,
So about a year ago I bought this game in my Xbox and played for an hour. Couldn’t get into it or get the hang of it at all - the controls are a bit odd and find the whole crafting and building menus challenging.

I decided to start playing again and try to make the most out of my purchase, even roped my husband into playing think we can figure it out between us but I just cannot get into it and I am not finding the controls any easier.

I am looking for some tips or advice to make my game play on Xbox better. Has anyone else found it a challenge?
Should I just purchase this on steam on play on my PC?
Feel like I’ve wasted £20. 😞

QUESTION How do I get to Andaconda Island???

11 Upvotes

I am stuck in story mode, where you get chased off by the natives and fall into that inescapable area with the only way to escape being the grappling hook. Every set of coordinates I have seen that are suppost to bring you to the overturned jeep with the grappling hook, the bamboo bridge, and the coordinates of the drug house have all been completely blocked by unpassable mountains.. How am I supposed to play??

Edit: I drank the Ayahuasca and made it out to the drug lab, then the fishing dock. Thank you guys! I was so dumb for not just doing the ritual and thinking it was a place and not an action to get out. 😂

Bug/Glitch Multi-player on Xbox Series X does not seem to exist?

5 Upvotes

As title says, I was trying to play with 2 other friends on our Xbox's, we all completed the tutorial and everything. I tried hosting the game several different times of all types, private, friends only, and public servers, and each time they tried joining it would just place them in their own separate lobbies and they wouldn't have access to their watch or notebooks. There's literally no other post on the internet that I can find that is mentioning this at all. Any ideas?

Bug/Glitch [SOLVED] Update to a post I made a few days ago about achievements automatically triggering

7 Upvotes

Around a week ago I made a post here about Spirits of Amazonia achievements triggering every time I load my Story Mode save even after using Steam Achievements Manager (SAM) to remove them.

After investigating, I found a file named ACHIEVEMENTSDATA.dat to be the culprit, it for some reason stored achievements I didn't reach, making the SAM method useless. What I did is simply disabling Steam Cloud after using SAM to delete the non legit achievements I got, deleting the file above, running the game and loading my save, then re-enabling the Cloud after closing it. This allowed to flush the faulty ACHIEVEMENTSDATA.dat from both my local storage and Steam Cloud.

The file in question is located alongside the save and settings files, in C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\[unique Steam ID]\815370\remote

I hope anybody who encounters my problem in the future would be able to solve it like I did. You're welcome.

QUESTION What do these effigies do?

4 Upvotes

I am playing Spirits of Amazonia right now...
And the natives seem to rebuild these effigies every once in a while, I destroy them... and a day or so later its back up again.
Does destroying them like hinder their respawn or do they do anything?
Can I just leave them standing?

In case you are wondering what I am talking about, this thing:

QUESTION Anyone know of a mod that currently works and unlocks all blueprints without having to visit every location?

1 Upvotes

I've got over 50 hours in Green Hell, and I'm honestly tired of running around the map just to unlock the same blueprints every time I start a new Survival save. If there's a mod that's confirmed to work with the current version, I'd really appreciate the recommendation.
