Stairway has what appears to be a naked woman (or the ugliest dude with moobs I have EVER seen) intruder, it is highly suggested you move on and report, otherwise you get a jumpscare/game over

So the reason i din't add it as a seperate anomaly is because the aanomaly with just one Extra Light Switch or where it spawns a million more is the same anomaly. Basically if you see alot of Light Switches the game Dev is actually saying you are blind and adds more of them as time goes on.

Hello Trogam! The shortest answer of how the lightswitch anomaly works in OBS 5 is by saying it works like MOST Human anomalies work in Obs 5. Which is if you do not spot the human anomaly or take too long on cams it will creep closer to the camera(resulting in most of the time a little cheap jumpscare).The lightswitches works in the same way. Instead of creeping closer to the cam it just spawns in more lightswitches.
More Details below of how the lightswitch anomaly works! Hope it helps

Hi Evelynjekyll. I have mentioned the Light Switch anomaly in the older comments.

Again like i mentioned to the previous person, the light switch has phases ,but it is still the same anomaly. Let me explain the light switch in the study has a few phases it will first spawn in a second light switch on the left wall (phase 1). If you fail to report the newly added light switch on the left wall or you are just casually too slow through the cameras, it will then go into phase 2. Which then it will spawn a lightswitch on the right of the painting and as you mentioned to the top/mid left of the back wall.

Sadly if I remember again correctly this is one of 3 newer maps that had a new game mechanic where you can't spam false report. Because spamming false reports has been proven and confirmed by the dev to spawn more anomalies.

But you can't do it here sadly. So my advice will be to just replay the map until you find huge map.

Hey Evelynjekyll. First of all your English is perfect. Secondly Huge man only spawns on the Apartment map. Yes it is Random for him to spawn. If I remember correctly for me he always use to spawn around 3/4o clock in game time.:zero:. Thanks for checking out my guide.

thanks you for the help but i can't have huge man, i did everything :astariondisapprove: (move the cam fast, wait 3 or 4 minutes in game) and do 2 or 3 times the map but still don't have it... do you have a speacial technic or it's just random and my luck s!ck ? it's very fustrating (sorry for my bad english mate i'm not english xD) but thanks if u can help me :galelove: :zagpls:
