Not giving achievements
I had them unlocking early on but I haven't received any in awhile and I know I've done some of the things I should be getting an achievement for.

Do you have any mods going on?

Unless you want to be specific, all the achievements work so far for me. Certain boss achievements require specific methods of defeating them.

Achievements are not given with mods, right?)

Correct, unless you use the mod that makes it work

You can run mods, but you need to identify as not running mods, then you will get achievements.

Normally, yes. But there is also a mod to re-enable that, although the install instructions for it are a bit ... badly worded due to English not being the mod creator's first language. But it does work, I use it myself.

I install only Basket Equipment to Camp Clothing from nexus and have some trouble with save and achivments ) so, I already played the game without any mods, but I decided to play as the Dark Tempter and installed the mods)

Yeah that's the one I use. It is installed correctly but specifically I'm not getting the achievement for the Owlbear and Scratch. Don't want to post spoilers for people. But I got a good bit of achievements using mods early on but now its not giving any.

I got an achievement blowing up like a bunch of people with barrels (like a really whole bunch, don't ask) it popped up but never went to steam. since then I've gotten zero more achievements unlocked which seemed strange.

I think this is what happened to me. I did the same thing in the goblin camp. Haven't seen an acheivement since. Last one I got was for reading 100 books

not using mods and still can t get achievements to work. signed out and signed back in once and that helped but after that nothing helps. i did have to install in on my secondary drive could that be part of the issue

I have the same problem with Scratch and the owlbear. I know I should have gotten it, but I did not. I have played that scene twice. No mods.

Owlbear and Scratch one has a really specific method to get it cause it has to trigger specific dialogue option. I know when I did it if you had talk to animals on it would fail. Without that the proper dialogue choice triggered and I got the achievement.
I have only unlocked one and that was the first one (Descent from Avernus - escape the nautiloid), and then only when playing with a friend online. My games are on an external HD which may well be the problem.
