Best way to find Calidor's chip?

[Starscream]

I've gone into countless fissures, found backpacks and the like, but I can't find the chip- I wish the mission chip was a different colour- or is it? its getting frustrating and I feel "no joy" in searching this particular one.

I had a VERY tough time finding the fissure chip. I ended up using a VTOL with a full container of hydrazine cause I had a feeling it would take a while to find. Spoiler alert: It did. I got so frustrated with it that I started putting beacons down at each fissure I came across so I didn't repeatedly fly over it wondering if I had already been there. I KNOW that I visited some many times over. Anyhoo, that allowed me to avoid passing the same area again and again and that's when I quickly found it after laying down a good 10 beacons at every fissure I came across.

Did you do the previous 2 EXO events and collect all the chips from them? If so, you can pick them up and it counts towards these missions.

hi to answer the other part of your question yes it is a different color its a sort of teal (unfortunately i didnt take a screenshot so i cant show you but trust me theres a difference)

[myprelink]

oh it might also help if you mess with other Usagi beacons to get them to stop broadcasting

i'm using the same method as him because i am getting tired for this and really frustated, but i did a copy of my survival world, turn creative on, and started to put beacon t EVERY fissures and right now, i still can't find the chip

And Yes, the chip A 3/5 has a light blue and a light green beacon if you use usagi

I already had the chips from the previous events dropped on the floor at my base but didn't realise they were the same after wasting a weekend on Calidor until I read this post.

I'm having the same problem. I've been to every fissure and put a beacon in creative mode. Is there a cheat to complete this quest? I've found other chips on Calidor but 3/5 one is might be bugged. I've been searching for days now

Again, I too had major problems finding that one. It probably took about 3 in game hours total before I found it. Almost all the rest of the chips/sites were relatively easy to find.

There is no cheat for this. Have you done the 2 prior chip events? If so, and you still have them, you can simply pick them up one by one and it counts towards this event if I remember correctly.

[Trouble The Cyclops]

This is a brand new save after a long while. I wasn't here for the chip events. I'm so frustrated with this one. 3/5 is the only one left. I found all the others on Calidor and the other planets. Only one left

[chicken007]

I found the chips with geography.
The chips spawn on large-ish structures with a green map marker. These structures appear on the surface of planets, close to on an invisible latitude line I call "Halfway between the equator and north (or south) poles of the planet." I always planned to rename it "The Tropic of"... of... something witty.

How I reached them:
• Turn compass on.
• Start from any equatorial gateway and travel north or south until the polar gateway audibly becomes 'closest' on the compass.
• Notice or mark that location.
• Turn east or west, and go that way, looking for larger structures.
• If you reach your marked starting location, try the other side of the planet instead.

Note that the equatorial gateways are not the equator of the planet itself. When not directly north/south of your location, these points on the equator will be significantly more distant than the pole gateway. Use the 'N' on the compass to maintain a true east/west heading.

[Geauxboy]

That's somewhat true, but I found a few on the equator.

The chip in fissure is frustrating me, I have spent few days searching for it. Tried every suggestions I could find on the net, beacons, fly slow & low with Usagi, creative mode. In order not to miss anything, I fly down to ground of every red-sanded area. I even searched in the cave layer with Usagi on. Beacons are filling the whole planet. That makes me curious, does it even exist in my save file? It couldn't be hiding below the cave layer, am i right?

I feel the same way as I have the same issues. In addition, my game tends to freeze every 5 minutes when I try to explore Calidor. No idea why, though my save size is almost 55MB.

I’m stuck too and i have done everything, this is the worst. Im gunna keep trying but ahhhhhhhhhhhh. If I start blowing everything up will I lose the chip???? Heheh
