Weekly challenge not crediting
Anyone else having an issue with taking a photo of a Wendigo for the weekly challenge ?
I have taken multiple pics of both living and dead wendigos, close ups, distance shots, but am not getting credit for them.
Am I missing something ?

Need to use the Camera item from your inventory under the "weapons" tab. Aim at the Wendigo and wait till it says "Wendigo" at the top right of the screen, otherwise it doesn't count. Then snap the pic. Can't take pics from far away, need to move in close for it to register. Once it's registering it'll notify you of what you're taking a picture of at the top right.

Are you using a camera or photomode?

Exactly what does the challenge state?

ahhh, so I need to repair an actual camera ?

I was using the photo mode.

Thanks for the heads up :)

There is a "special" camera you have to find/repair/use.

If you have not yet, talk to Davenport in the Overseers basement and he will tell you where to find it.

Yea it's not superclear. Like BizarreMan says there's a quest to get one if you speak to Davenport.

FYI: You can take a photo of the remains and it will still count, it just needs to show the enemy tag in the upper right corner when taking a photo with the camera to count.

Remains, meat pile, pile of radioactive sludge. It all counts.
