How to use Scent!
It would seem many, many people would get onto dev branch only to find that pressing -and holding- Q would not play any animation and simply... not work.

To each of the many threads that cropped up in response to this issue I replied the same fix to this and each time it worked. So, given there is no 'pinned' thread about the fix, here is the solution - hoping for it to be Pinned.

Step 1.
Right click The Isle in steam and select properties. From there, navigate to Browse Local files.
Step 2.
You should now have The Isle's installation folder open. Inside of it are two sub-folders; Engine & TheIsle. Remember them.
Step 3.
Each of these two folders has its respective Saved folder. Delete BOTH of the Saved folders, one inside Engine & one inside TheIsle
Step 4.
Launch The Isle in Dev Branch and the game will re-create functional versions of those two folders you deleted, now you will be able to use Scent by holding Q.

I don't see Saved folders in either Engine or TheIsle folders. I'm not sure what to delete. In both I only see Binaries, Content, and Plugins. Do I just delete Engine an TheIsle fully? My Game doesn't show many of the features that others have when streaming or posting online like the Scent function
