Bug in search quest

[Churro]

In all the search quests I'm trying to complete the item just doesn't show up. I found the spot behind the waterfall from the treasure map and the spot where the notes of the doctor are. There is a sound signal that the things are there, but I can't actually collect anything. Does anyone know this bug or how to fix it?

How close are you to the item? In my experience you need to be right to the item you are searching for for it to appear

If I compare it to the tutorial video I looked up I should have been standing right in front of it :/

In my experience, it takes a moment for the game to realize you're right on top the item.

So in every case that I can think of, there is some indicator that you're in the right spot - a sandy patch, a piece of paper, some old bottles, something. So be sure you're standing right on those, and not moving (because it doesn't work so well if you keep moving), before hitting the search pulse.

OK I will try that. Thank you~ :)

I have the same two bugs. Have you been able to resolve that?

Yes! The problem was actually that I was kind of dumb and didn't realise that there is a button that makes a search pulse (like cruinne said). I don't know how that slipped by me but ... yeah. Once I pressed that button when I was close to the right area the item showed up. I can't remember which one it was since it has been a while since I played this game but I'm sure you can find it in the key settings. Hopfully that will help you :)

Thank you! I had that button "pulsed", but I didn't realise it also showed the direction in which to go closer to the item. I don't think anyone is "dumb", it was not such obvious with these "when you're close they reveal themselves" objects, but awesome game anyway.
