Hi just thought id let you know about a bug im experiencing. Certain sounds have started to sound strange and muffled. Things like shower, alarm clock, phone etc. started to happen about 10 - 15 hours into a save also only seems to affect the one save file, i tried to load a save from a previous game and the sounds were fine, but reloading my current game it persists. Not gamebreaking by any means but just thought id share.

this is what is in my traceback.txt i did manage to get past the event by using the skip function, but had another crash during a lexi hot coffee but that was a one off, so this might be related to that crash and not the samantha one. is there somewhere else i can see all previous crash texts?
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.
While running game code:
TypeError: cannot pickle 'TextIOWrapper' instances

I'm unable to hit your issue.
By any chance, can you join our discord (https://discord.gg/AAARSEG), create a ticket (#create-ticket) and upload a save just before the crash in the ticket?
I'll be able to dig deeper.
Thanks
im sorry but im not really comfortable with discords age verification requirements i live in the uk and cant access your discord without uploading photos etc, and unfortunately i no longer have a save from before the issue occured, i do have a save that is before it but will take quite a while to get back to that point. I appreciate your help.
I understand your position about discord. I'll do my best to find what's going on without a save.
I tried again to trigger the Samantha scene, no luck in hitting the issue.
If you ever hit the issue, press rollback, keep the last dialogue line somewhere and report the stacktrace and the last dialogue here. It might help narrowing the search.
