im having radio trouble currently, I made sure that I had the audio in the correct format but I still cant play them, any ideas why this is happening? (picture of radio) 

Strange.  Does the status say that it is loading forever pretty much? Never plays anything because it doesn't load, perhaps?

yes, but I have no idea why it doesn't load, should I try to change the mp3 files or smth

No. I use MP3 as well. I would say make sure they're formatted correctly and whatnot. Have you gone into your assets file and tested to see if they work in there?

yes, all of them play normally, and I also have no other radios on the base so its not playing out of a diffrent radio or anything

Hmm. I suppose the only thing I could think of is making sure a firewall isn't blocking the game's access to files. Is the radio the only thing not working? Have you tried pictures and stuff?

good news, seems the yt to mp3 converter I was using just didn't comply with VOTV for some reason, used a diffrent converter and they work as usual. Thanks for the help!

Glad you got your issue fixed! Sorry I wasn't able to help more, but I can't help everyone, y'know? Wish I could.

i had the same problem,

Were you using a Youtube to mp3 converter? i just converted the videos using a different site and and the new files were playing correctly

(1 edit)

hmm might be the problem, what converter did you use then so I can test it out

So I have a problem, when I download the game i'll get the file but the file won't work. If you can help me it is greatly appreciated. 

Could you describe this a bit more? What do you mean by the file won't work?

(1 edit)

I see how that was a vague explanation, my bad. What I ment was that when I go to to extract the files its just stuck at zero percent. Hope that explains my situation much better.

Also do you extract the file or not? You usually do that with most games but I just want to be sure.

You would extract the files, yes. If the download is stuck at 0%, I would check to make sure your antivirus or firewall isn't blocking access to the download.

How would I check if they're blocking access to the download?

I am unsure. I would try turning off your antivirus before you initiate the download and see if it makes any progress. If not, you can turn it back on and try something else.

I got it to work, I just had to be more patient in the extracting process. Thank you anyways.

Glad you got it working. :)

do you know something about "solar" gamemode?

Like, how to unlock it? If that's what you mean, you'd either need to get through the story once, or experience the bad sun event for the first time. I am unsure which, but it will be one of those, if not both.

nonono, just asking, because after day 2 gamemode just dont work, the sun is not dealing damage 

Oh. Then I am unaware, unfortunately. Sounds like it might be a bug, but I would make sure, first. If you're SURE that it is never dealing damage to you, I would report the bug within the pinned bug report thread.

Did you equip the Welder's Mask at the hole? If so, I think that mask makes you not take damage from the sun. Make sense, if you consider the requirements for surviving SCP-001 "When Day Breaks", as people had to shield their eyes from the sun.

Как мне приобрести игру, кроме плат системы PayPal. Так как она сообщает о неактуальности моего номера пластика, дак и ещё требует от меня ИИН... А если пройти регистрацию PayPal выдаёт ошибку.

Тебе не нужно покупать игру просто нажми на кнопку No thanks, just take me to the downloads

Was just wondering how selling trash works? As im still very early game and I have seen that it can make a fair bit of money? Im just not sure how to do it

It's actually pretty simple. You buy trash bags or rolls from the store (you'll get more bang for your buck by buying rolls) you collect the trash into the bags, collect them into your inventory, put them into an Item Box (which you can buy from the shop in the Essentials tab) and then send it out the same way you'd send drives. Profit! 

are there any free item boxes?

(1 edit)

No. You will always need to buy them, but they are fairly cheap, so it shouldn't be a problem.

alright thank you

Always happy to help.

I'm just wondering how to get the game running because I've been stuck trying to get it to work 

Could you explain what's been going wrong?

I just got a laptop yesterday and I want to download a fun game so I chose this game. im a bit new to trying to download & play games so a basic step by step could work wonders. also the laptop is a windows touchscreen laptop from possibly 2020-2022  in case i have to say what type of laptop it is.

Okay, I'll try my best. Are you using Itch on the browser or the app?

On the browser 

Okay. First thing first. Do you own 7-Zip? You will need this program to unpack the files the game downloads with.

okay I have it and went to download what do I do next?

Particularly, you want to download the 7.0.0 update. 7.0.0b3 was a beta of the 7.0.0 update, and has bugs that were fixed in the official release.

I tried looking for 7.0.0 but I can't find it only the 7.0.0b3 one. Will that work?

It would work, but it isn't what I would recommend. Strangely, I cannot find a way to find the 7.0.0 file, and the dev must've not put it up or something. It would be a bit easier to do it through the Itch app, as you have the option to download updates more easily, and will let you know when updates go live for games. If you don't want to do that, we can just do it this way, but if you'd rather get the app and update the game that way, it should be a simple set up.

Hi, I have a problem: why i can't I lift the sockets in the game?

(1 edit)


I'm on version 0.7.0

Lift the sockets? The plugs for electronics?

Yes!

Are you sure you're on the official 0.7.0 update? The plugs for electronics were fixed in the recent updates.

Help me please

What do you need help with?

Whenever i try to open the front door of the base it opens slightly then closes how do i fix this?

This is likely related to an event in-game. Go through your garage.

yes i found it out thank you. You are very helpful from what ive seen

I appreciate that. I do try my best to help everyone I can. It brings me happiness to help others out and make them happy, so as long as I can help, I am happy.

Yeah I downloaded the game and went through the things and found votv. ede and tried opening it but it said 

C:\Users\MYNAME~1\AppData\Local\Temp\7zOC826FF19\VotV\Binaries\ Win64\VotV-Win64-Shiping.exe" VotV CreateProcess() returned 2. 

This keeps showing up when I try opening the game with 7zip so how do I fix it?

Is it still in the zip folder?

I got it to work now thanks.

Also I got another issue the game and mouse having a few inches of the button you want to actually get into and out of the menus in it

I don't seem to understand. Could you explain the problem a bit more?

it's like the mouse just move like one inch or several inches away from where your mouse is actually at after pressing start game and play select game and either get into inventory or pause menu my mouse placement is the same but the mouse is in one spot but the system or something believes it is a certain point in a different part of the screen. Either it's just a issue that is only happening to me or something else.

Hmm. This sounds like it might be a resolution issue. It could be possible. Try making sure the game is applying the correct resolution of your monitor. If it's correct, try changing the window mode. If it's windowed, change it to fullscreen and back. If it's fullscreen, change it to windowed and back. See if that does anything for your cursor problem.

Hello, to be honest, I don't even know how to describe the problem. After starting the game, it resets all settings, and the training has one black screen. (I am writing from a translator)

This is actually a common issue that the main page FAQ can help you with. Simply go to your settings, and under the Game category, look for Regenerate data.sav. Click that and it should fix your issue.

Thank you so much, now I can play this space project =)

Always happy to help. :)

whats with this vent in the stairwell is it a secret or something because i can interact with it

I am unsure. As far as I'm aware, it isn't anything special.

okay thank you

you can pull it off with a certain tool for heavy lifting... there is no purpose in doing so, but you get a very large and invincible prop object you can collide with, which has lots of potential for shenanigans 

Try shooting at it with the powerwasher. That should easily dislodge it.

I am genuinely surprised on how much I've been able to help people. I know this post is kind of unnecessary, but it really warms my heart to see how many I have helped over the time this thread has been up. Thanks to everyone for allowing me to help. I will continue to do my best to help who I can. :)

Here is another tip! May be a bit barebones, but it'll help you in the long run. Experiment with how much each food item feeds you. If you got spare money, don't be afraid to try something new. There might be something that is worth spending money on more than MRE's and such.

food boxes give the most food per volume in your inventory, shrimp gives the most food for the least amount of money.

What Are these weird face looking wisps and are they dangerous ?(there is no info on them in the wiki)

When do these faces show up?

(7 edits)

they appear when you approach the obelisk and return to your base according to my experience, you might see one passing by your base. they glow like wisps but look like three dots arranged into a face 2 dots on top like eyes and one dot on the bottom like a mouth

they are also capable of destroying your omega kerfur,

  the strange wisp looks like this: O           O

                                                                                O

Ah, right. These are wisps that will literally tear you apart if they get to you. Keep your distance and keep your Kerfur safe. Eventually, a game event will come by that'll remove them from the world.

that's a rendering error, they're supposed to be a big ball of firey light, I have the same issue too sometimes

(2 edits)

ok well they are not a problem anymore cuz the big pyramid dude zapped them away

another question  is the rendering glitch showing the wisps true face or is it just a placeholder wisp face

also i cant find the air rune slab its not on the pylon, i checked every transformer too

After extracting the game with 7z (Whatever it's called) the game will start for about 10 seconds before just freezing. There is no "VotV has stopped working" Message, or anything of the sort. I'd really like to play this game, but it's a bit difficult if I can't even see past the loading.

I would say make sure your firewall isn't blocking access to the game when it loads. See if that gets you any results.

помогите с настройкой графики, почти все параметры на максимум стоят. От всех текстур в игре при движении идёт шлейф (текст расплывается, только если приблизить глазами то не плывет, трава и прочее оставляет короткий шлейф) когда пингуешь сателлиты тотпросто сплошной столб из непонятного. Размытие в движении отключено.

I unfortunately don't know enough about graphics to know exactly what is causing the trails and whatnot. I would recommend not having everything set to max. Try defaulting things and work up settings one at a time to find a comfy spot for it. You're never going to get great graphics out of the game anyway, so there's little point to go overboard.

Posters  do not work with jpegs

i dont know why 

You can try converting your pictures in question to PNG's. They work.

thx for the help!

Always happy to help. :)

I don't understand how yellow wisps react like do they dissapear when loading a save, dissapear during morning and how close do you have to be to them for them to start following you because i have been killed multiple times by them because they just float through my doors and get into my base

simply hide or keep your distance, they appear in waves and go wherever they please. There is many ways to avoid them and besides being relatively fast they aren't that dangerous if you're aware of them and act appropriately, and they have a very large audio radius to warn you when they're approaching even if you can't see them.

Does setting the days backwards on your save break anything cuz im stuck on day 49 and it wont change + its always monday.

As far as I'm aware, if the day isn't changing, then you've likely experienced everything the story has to offer currently. To answer your question, reverting your day to a previous one shouldn't break anything, but I don't believe it'll save anything you had; you would just be starting a new game from that day, unless I did it wrong in the past.

oh well i dont wanna risk it, and the reason i aksed this question is because i missed a few events because i accidentally started on day 23

how can i get the  torrent to work  it always shows an error mesage

Could you explain or screenshot the error you're getting?

well my computer is czechian but ill try

(1 edit)

it says "cant load "pa07_0011"unknown error"

Have you installed 7-Zip? If you don't own 7-Zip, you won't be able to unpack the file.

(1 edit)

ill try getting it

still doesnt work i think im just gonna wait for it to get on steam

Could you explain exactly what's happening when you're trying to download it?

I have a problem with servers on the satellite dish - when i go fix the uncalibrated one i see it turned off. I've seen in other people's videos it should glow red when it is uncalibrated, but in my case it does not glow at all, like there is no electricity in the satellite dish. I am on 0.6.3 version btw.

If there are certain power systems turned off in your base, it can turn off servers and computer terminals. Make sure everything is powered on.

Thanks a lot! it helped

Always happy to help. :)

um maybe an stupid question but how do you fish in the game? theres those "bait" "lure" boxes that you can buy in the store, i both them and went to the water but no mater what buton i press nothing hapened, is it like still unfinished or something?

(+1)

You also need the fishing rod. However, you can only find this, and not buy it. First, you'll need the portable map, and you'll need to find a work area surrounded by a fence somewhere in the north-east part of the map. You will find a note there written in German, but it'll also have coordinates on it. After that, follow the coordinates with your map and bring a shovel. Should you find the coordinates, you'll find a site where you can dig up the fishing rod.

Ty i will try to find it<3
also i have a question does anyone know how to get the card from the bunker next to the base bc i want to build omega kerfus but i cant open the bunker to get the blueprint:(

You need a grappling hook. You can purchase them from the store. There will be a slit you can look through, on the back of the bunker. The card will be on the stairs, which you can grab and pull to your with the grapple. After you get the card and open the first door, you will need a password changer for the second door at the bottom, and then you'll be inside, and can get your omega recipe. 

(WARNING: Practice with the grappling hook first, if you don't know how it works yet. You could very well throw it and lose it if you don't use it correctly, and you'll have to buy another.)

Hi, I would like to ask me if the event with 4 rays in the sky has been running for 49 days and does not change further. I have updated version 0.7. I have seen many youtubers have a new version with other modes. Tell me where to get a more recent version on the site I cannot find (I am writing this through a translator) 

You're asking how to get the event to end, or how to get a new version of the game? 0.7.0 is the most recent version of the game. So long as you're not still in the experimental branch, you should have the most recent version.

I would like to know how to end this event and for some reason the days do not go beyond 49 days ( I write Russian through a translator)

You can end the event by jumping down the hole, where the lasers are coming from. Be aware that enemies will be around, so be careful. If you're quick, you can make it easy. Simply jump down the hole and upon reaching the bottom, you'll be teleporter back to spawn and the event would have ended. Be sure not to touch the central laser, as well, as it will kill you on contact.

It got bogged down, I already jumped there, there is no main laser and there are no enemies, too, maybe it's because I threw an ATV there

Hmm. Strange. And this is when the purple lasers are shooting up into the sky, right? I want to be sure I am not mistaken on which event this is. Or have you gotten past the problem now?

Я забыл сказать я пытался туда спустится но пару раз задел лазер и начанал все сначала после этого лазер пропал

I'm from Russia. Can you help me? When I try to write a hash code from the stations, if I get an o or 0, I can't figure out what to write (I'm playing on the bottom of the graph) is there any way to change the sprite of displaying zero or the letter o

I don't think so. Just think of it as the codes we normally use in real life, as we never use O's in codes. It'll always be the number 0. Hope this helps.

yes, I understand what you're talking about, it's just that when I look for 0 or oh in hash codes, I always make mistakes and the codes don't count

Well, unfortunately, I don't think I can help with that much, unless somebody else knows how to change those kinds of things. All I can really say is try to remember that it is the number, and never the letter. And later on, when you can make an Omega Kerfur, you can just have them do that duty for you.

Hi! I want to ask if you know how to fix the "Fatal error" error, which causes the game to crash for some reason...

if you know how to fix it, then please answer this question. (I am writing through a translator)

I unfortunately do not. Is there any events that lead up to this crash? This could also be caused by certain settings. I basically never modified my stuff and I never end up crashing, so I am unsure what setting could cause it -- if that is the case.

Okay... thanks for the answer, I will look for information on how to fix it

(1 edit)

I try my best, but I can't fix every issue. I'm sorry I couldn't help you further, but do let me know if you fix it, so we can help others with this issue down the line if it comes up again!

how do I unlock sandbox mode? thx

You have to go through the full story at least once to unlock Sandbox.

I saw a  lot of good things about this game but i honestly can't play, even the tutorial. The 0-9 hotkeys don't work, if i hit the windows key it windows  the game but in a corner and i have to restart the game, and there's so so many keys and combos i have no idea how that would work in a faster paced environment. Will have to wait for the alpha or full release :((

Strange. It hasn't been that hard on my end. It's not as fast as you may think, too. I don't think there's ever a time when you're being rushed to do anything. Most combos are just item and inventory management, anyway, so it's not too important. You can always take the simpler route for that one. The number keys not working is strange, though. Have you tried looking through your controls to make sure everything is set properly? And the windows key thing, well, I am unsure how this could be common for you, BUT, a possible workaround would be to set your fullscreen mode to Fullscreen Borderless. This may help the fullscreen remain so, while stuff is layered on top.

I figured the hotkey things, i was  in azerty so i had to rename the keys  in  settings. But for the  windows  thing its a bit annoying, i had  checked the setting and didnt find the  fullscreen setting but i'll look tomorrow/ Just finished the tutorial, the signal thing is really hard to understand but now that I know that theres  no  rush i can play and keep being dumb while not being stressed by time. Thanks  for your help, I hope it'll be  easier as I play!

It'll definitely get easier. Don't worry. Things aren't nearly as complex as they seem, and they'll become second nature eventually. And if you ever need help with anything else, I'm always willing to help.

Can i have some tips on where to put the 12 shrimp packs to get cyan argemia,  im planning on getting it and i dont know the specific location to place the shrimp

also when i try to print the hexagon for white argemia it just says "no  collision geometry detected" and "error importing the model"

i need a bit of help with this i guess

I'm actually unsure myself. I haven't done everything with those yet, so hopefully somebody else can help. I'm sure someone has done it before.

(3 edits)

UPDATE: i got it! i found a tutorial on the voices of the void reddit you just gotta put 12 shrimp packs in the pool in the central room and blow them up.

Collection update:

A fine collection, indeed.

thx!

How do you get your reputation down during very early game? I see that there are some events that activate at the Mean tier at the early state of the game (around 10 days-ish), how do I get the reputation all the way down to Mean tier as early as possible?

I am unsure, honestly. As far as I know, the only thing that really messes with them is trying to take their stuff when they start setting up their treehouse.

I think i came up with an idea how. Basically, on day 1, go to the console and type ariral.pls and swing your crowbar at them through a wall repeatedly, like this.

(4 edits)

Can i have some help with white argemia the 3d printer doesnt want to cooperate


did i mess something up in blender? because i used the turtorial from three cats in a raincoat

i also need a gold bar for golden argemia and with my luck theres no way of getting one without needing help

Unfortunately, I'm unexperienced in how to use the printer. I know there's an in-game tutorial for it in the options, under the hints section. If you already refer to it, though, I'm unsure what else to say. I wish I could help more, but I'm not sure how to get it working myself.

(2 edits)

i got the printer working! i just had to make another hexagon in blender and add the UCX_ thing

Well, I'm glad you got it figured out. Sorry I couldn't help more.

(1 edit)

Ok  I have a new problem now!I can't use my mouse in menus. Can't save or use any button of the pause screen, as well click in my inventory. Also when I came  to my base I couldnt switch the lights on inside so n idea what i had to do when i got there

EDIT:  so i use 2 monitors. Which caused the screen to be halfway through both monitors while only showing on one. I disconnected the second one, and it fixed the issue but playing on oonly one monitor (my main) created  the issue above. BUT when i use both monitors it takes care of said issue , but  its still unplayable cuz i have like, half the screen working. So idk what to do T-T

Okay, so you figured out what causes the mouse issue. When you fix that, you're still having the light issue? Just wanna be sure I'm getting that right.

(1 edit)

No no the light  issue is irrelevant, it  was  a one  time bug. Basically if i sum it up: when i have the screen issue i dont have the mouse issue, and  when i have a normal screen i have the mouse issue

Hmm. Strange. Have you tried different window modes, like Borderless Windowed, and normal Fullscreen? Borderless Windows are usually good for dual-monitor setups.

(1 edit)

There is no option in the game for it :(( at least i looked for it and it wasnt there (and idk where i could change that directly on my pc knowing its already borderless so i dont have access the usual close/reduce buttons)

There should be a tick box in the visuals somewhere to switch it from normal fullscreen to borderless. Now that you mention it, there may not be a windowed mode, and I remembered that wrong. I apologize for that. If you already tried the tick box, though, I would say make sure your resolution is set correctly. Or -- in games that have done this to me before -- try resetting from fullscreen to borderless, or the other way around and see if that improves at all.

I found the problem :) It was the resolution. Havent tried w 2 monitors yet but 1 is working. Thanks a lot!!

The game is definitely confusing and theres a lot to do but im starting to find a rythm, and i have to google lots of stuff but its ok. Thanks again!

Good! Glad you got the problem fixed up. And hey, if you ever need tips or help, you can always ask.

Is maxwell still in the game?

Should be.

I'm curious if it's worth it to sell extra drives. I'm at a point where I'm processing more signals than I am outputting, and there's two "special" level 0 signals I have that I would like to have sent but I don't want to fuck up the daily report either. I also just don't know if sending another box does anything

(+1)

The more you send out, the better your weekly review will be, basically. If you're making a comfortable amount of money, though, it's just extra. You don't have to send EVERYTHING out. Especially low rank stuff. You will not get paid for anything level 0 or special, I believe. Try to avoid sending anything under 0.5 MB's, as they're usually not good enough for good money, or usually end up special in some way. Anything else, you can send for extra money if you want to.

How do I get rid of the wasps (not wisps)? I've destroyed their nest, but they're still buzzing around the area I destroyed it at.

I'm unsure. Back when I found a nest for the first time, I don't think wasps were a thing yet.  For all I know, you can't, but there may be an item that can deal with them. Just not sure which.

(+1)

a curtain has somehow clipped halfway into my floor are there any tips on getting it out

(+1)

I am actually unsure. Going back to menu and loading back in might help, as it usually has to reload props and stuff, which may or may not get it unstuck. If that doesn't help, I think there's a way to regen props and stuff in the settings, but I can't remember for sure.

If grabbing and pulling the hell out of it doesn't work, best bet is to reload the save. I got my boy Kerfur stuck under the base and was able to wrangle him out from under it with a bit of time.

(+1)

i got it out! i used my broomba to collect it and that worked so yay i guess.

good forward thinking!

(+1)

Do you have any tips for the cleaning? i'm a beginner.

(+1)

you should buy garbage bag rolls for big garbage, use the broom to move small items such as paper trash, plastic trash, metal trash to the workbench and make them into more useful stuff, you should sell the filled garbage bags, wooden scrap, paper scrap and you should also sell small useless items that you can't craft with such as empty yogurt packages, empty shrimp packs

(+1)

Thanks

(+2)

Garbage bag rolls are a scam. They waste extra points compared to just buying multiple single garbage bags at a time.

TRUE the only real purpose is to conserve inventory volume i THINK, but it's a tax of 3 points. Which is crazy too, since there's also separate items for pieces of paper from notebooks, but there's no price difference between those

I basically buy a buncha garbage bags, clean up what I can, then sell em with an item box. For the little trash, I try to have my roomba run a day shift around a room to pick up the lil bits, but that can be hard when you still have trash piles around the base.

(+1)

thx

I feel like an idiot, but how do you use the bait when fishing? I've seen videos where people have bait on their line but it feels like no matter what I do I just can't use anything.

(+1)

Hold the fishing rod, look directly at fishing bait, and right click on it.
