Invisible Ghosts ?
Hello, sorry if this is not the best place to post this, but i think i'm having a problem and couldn't find it on the internet. Maybe it can be a mod conflict?

I am playing SP and exploring a bit, and now i am not seeing ghosts anymore. I hear the sound, but they do not appear. I was able to see the ghots in the Hand of the Maker (sorry if it is not right), and then i started hearing them but not seeing anymore. Can pick emotes but they are invisible.

Did anyone ever have this issue before? Can this be a mod?
I installed Extended Progression, Roofs by Accident, Immersive NPC Loot System, YetAnotherSoloHPMod, WYSIWYG Wheel of Pain, Iron Mines Matter again and Cinamon Candle.
Is it possible that one of them can make ghosts invisible? I am unsure if it is safe to disable/enable mods in this game, since there is no save option to return to.

Any help/insight will be appreciated, and sorry if it is obvious but i couldn't find.
Thanks in advance!

Check those mods workshop pages and see if anyone else has reported anything similar. AS far as those mods are concerned, I don't see how they could change the ghosts, but then again who knows.

Have you recently changed any of your graphical settings? If you can remember when it started, go back through your mods and check when they were last updated, if one of the mods updated around the same time you started having the issue that's most likely the culprit.

Thanks for your reply crgzero!

Hummm i updated to latest AMD driver and also installed Reshade, BUT i definetely saw the ghosts at the maker's hand after that.
I'll try disabling one by one the mods and test. I guess the best place to test is the ghosts at the bridge on the oasis.

Barbarian Armors was the only one recently updated.

So i presume it is ok to disable and enable then to test? I won't change anything, just open the game and run around until ghost appear.
Most pages do not say much about mods and I do not know how to check for conflicts.

Let's see if i find a culprit :)

Just backup your saved game, do the testing when finished restore your save.

Thanks Rogue, made the backup.

And the testing... I'm verifying the game with steam and will test w/o the mod for new roof parts and steel forge. I doubt this will get me anywhere though. All other mods are fine.
I'll probably just have to play this character with invisible ghosts...

I have not seen anyone else complain about this so I assume its a mod. You say all other mods are fine. Have you removed them all then added them back 1 by 1?

Well, now that's the question... I verified the game, tested the last mods i installed, and discovered that i CAN see ghosts.
The first ones appear as they should, but the one where you get the Harlot journal 4, if i'm not mistaken, is invisible.
I could try a new world to test and see if it's a save issue or a mod issue, maybe they started appearing invisible after something happened here. So the ones i already saw are normal?
Very strange.

I doubt it is related to not finding them in the right order.

When i get in the mood i'll try it, because damn, if i change the position of 1 mod, restart game. Then open the game (at least i can skip the initial video), then wait for game to load (takes some time)... It is veeery time consuming to test this here, without mod tools to look at files.

Thanks for the reply again, i didn't test 1 by 1 because i was seeing them before.
If i ever find out what is happening, i'll come back here.

I too have some missing ghosts, at least in single player, haven't checked in official servers for the ones I can't see in sp, will do if I remember, I hear the "ghost sound" and can learn any feats related, but I just don't see the ghosts. Only happens with some of them, no idea what causes it ,only mod I have from your list is WYSIWYG Wheel of Pain.

It's not a mod problem just tried on official servers at the harlot journal 4 and no ghosts.

Oh damn :/
The harlot 4 is at a big ruin that has no entrance, just after the river turns left (near some black hand camps), right?
Following the river, past a big ruin with skeletons that i forgot the name (i don't use map) and very near to this place of the harlot journal, there is a "cave" that is just a passage going up, with sound of ghosts but no ghost.

Maybe just a game bug then? I could list all my mods but if this occur even in official servers then there's no help. Bought the game recently and only played SP.

Thanks for the info guys, i'll just keep going like this, though i like the ghosts.

EDIT: my bad guys, i'm talking about the journal 5. I'm trying not to read anything about the game online, it's been very nice just experimenting everything.
But if i remember right, the 4 also didn't show any ghost, i just found the journal by chance.


Update: I was able to find in the oficial forums that this seens to be happening for a long time now (if i'm not mistaken post was from july 2019, had energy loss and lost the page...). Not all ghosts, only some, including Harlot's 4 and 5 journal locations.
