Phasmophobia Dev Tracker

Hey, you can change the VR movement to be based on your head and not the controller in the VR settings menu. You can also change the controller rotations in the VR settings menu.

Hey, are you getting a black screen or are you stuck in the SteamVR loading screen?

Sorry about this. An update is coming to fix it.

There is no cloud saves at the moment. Did you reset your pc or doing anything that would have caused the save data to delete itself?

Hey thanks for taking the time to write this.

1 + 2. These are bugs, I'll look into them.

3. You can use Smudge Sticks when the Ghost is near you to stop it from attacking you.

I will look into increasing the range of the area light you have when close to a wall.

This is a bug that is fixed in the beta build. There are a few bugs left and then I will push it to the default build.

Hey, can you please join the discord and message Dknighter and send your player.txt file that you can find here: C:\Users\%USERPROFILE%\AppData\LocalLow\Kinetic Games\Phasmophobia

Just throwing an idea here but what if there was a button that had a very basic preset of questions(think like the Z button in Counter Strike), that you c...

Once the Ghost is in it's hunting phase the only thing you can do is hide. You should find the Ghosts room and place the Crucifix inside it and it will stop most of the Ghosts hunting phases.

How do you know when the Ghost is in it's hunting phase? Sometimes it appears right in front of you and then boom you're dead before y...

Originally posted by TCU FROGS!!!: I ended up refunding my copy and my gifted copy. Just tried again and the stuttering and tracking losses are extreme when right next to the computer in the trailer, and the fact that the devs are blaming us, I don't even want to support that.

Hey, sorry but I am the only developer so I'm not sure who is telling you that. The only reason I ask for specs is so I can narrow down the issue. Sorry that you had to refund, once the current bugs are fixed I will look into optimisations.

Hey thanks, I might make the sprint slightly faster but I don't want it to be too fast otherwise it will take away from the horror.

For that audio bug, there was an update last night that should have fixed that. Have you played since?

There is no push to talk for VR except for the global chat. Local chat is on by default.

Hey, are any of the controls working for the Samsung Odyssey?

Hey, it will stop working if the ghost is in it's hunting phase. Is this the issue? If not then it might be bugged so sorry about that.

Originally posted by Balten: Awesome, thank you! On the side note of stopping ghosts in hunting phases, we had an incident where taking a picture of a ghost caused it to disappear, which caused us to assume it was a Phantom due to our limited information. However, later one of us was killed by the ghost as it was completely invisible, and then found that it was in fact an Oni. Do some ghosts also react hte same way the Phantom is described to (being that it is supposed to disappear temporarily after a photo is taken), or was it just coincidence that when we took pictures it also was planning to yeet outta there?

Ah, that was just a coincidence. Once the ghosts are in their hunting phase there is nothing you can do except hi... Read more
