(Solved) Question concerning the "hidden" Supply Caches in the mapped maps (Expansion DLC)
Hello community! :campfireTLD::toqueTLD:

I'm currently having some confusion with few Supply Caches being unfindable, and I was hoping to have some help and explanation from players who can answer about my problem. I'll explain :

In my game, I have (almost) completely mapped Mystery Lake (My starting region), Mountain Town, and Hushed River Valley. However, I have noticed that in Mystery Lake and Moutain Town, that there are few supply caches. The problem with those "supply caches" is, I'm not able to find them, by going to their locations according to the map, which sometimes confuses me (Thinking that is a bug) or makes me think that they are in the maps but simply invisible, and that I need to do something in order to make them appear. I have made 2 screenshots of the 2 maps with each showing those supply caches that I can't find :

I researched online and found out that it is related to the DLC (Tales From The Far Terrority), I can't still find what I need to do in-game for revealing those caches.

My question is : What do I have to do to find and loot those hidden Supply Caches?

Here are few information maybe good to know to simplify solving my problem :

- I play in Stalker Difficulty.
- I own the DLC (Saying that, as I haven't mentioned it above).
- I have repaired one of the six transmitters in the game, Being the one in Mountain Town.

All the help and suggestions will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

Alright! So all those supply caches are indeed hidden intentionally and I must find the "Handled Shortwave Radio" in the DLC's Region, so I can use it during an Aurora to loot them, got it! :lunar2019grinningpig:

Thanks alot for your answer and help, very much appreciated! :painkillersTLD:

When you find the shortwave radio the 'Signal: Void' challenge will trigger. Don't forget to repair the transmitter in FA before you leave. You will get further instructions in your Journal as you progress.

I take note when I'll arrive there, thank you for mentioning it! :steamthumbsup:
