Subject: ODST audio log #29 not illuminated, unable to download to VISR

I heart welding. And muffins.

Is there a fix or something for this? I've tried the Mombasa Streets mission, and I've tried to play through on a new Solo campaign. The logs I do have stay in my VISR...I can't "give back" the logs. The one I don't have is Circle 9, Arc 5, and when I get to the phone booth, it's not highlighted and I can't download it. Do I have to get all the logs in numerical order or something?

Black/Death

No matter what order you get them in, they register in the same order to preserve story continuity. You just must have missed one.

I have 28 logs total. Crap. I think I see what you're saying. Ugh. Back to the drawing board...

I'm actually also having this problem, I've used 3 different maps and have gone through the game a few times looking for the last one that I am missing and no luck at all. I'm currently going through a 4th time with a new map and a new campain on easy but the audio logs start out in my VISR time I finish the first Buck mission in Tayari Plaza. I'm racking my brain to finish this thing, any suggestion from the team or anything to help? Thanks.

i am also having the same problem with #29, Ive been through the city multiple times and still cant find it, but I have never tried finding them on normal so maybe thats the only way to find the 29th.So just try doing it on a different difficulty.

logs 1-29 are definitely in the city, regardless of difficulty. there are a few that are well hidden via inside buildings and such. just go around and look for indicators that you are near one (superintendent pointing directions on signs, car alarms going off, all kinds of wierd hell, etc.). the simplest answer is that you simply missed one. the last one, #30, won't be found in the city. i don't want to spoil it for anyone who is trying to find it without looking it up, so you're going to have to do that yourself.

if there is some sort of weird glitch in your game, well, sorry about ya

Well after my 4th play through with Audio File Maps, I FINALLY FOUND IT!!! Well I'm glad to have that done, just need to get the last one #30 but I know all about that already. If this is the factor for finding that last lost one, start a completely new game where not every area is unlocked yet and play the missions in their normal order while checking the Audio File Map in the link below. I got it right after I played ONI Alpha Site. anyhow WOOT!!!

The one that finally surfaced was #20 on this map:

another thing is that some logs are avaliable to be found only after story progression, so i went log hunting right before the last mission...it worked the first time and i got all of them

Something important you should take note of:

The Superintendent produces various sounds within the city whenever you come close to an audiolog. The noise is generally louder the closer you are to it, and it's usually coming from an area right next to the terminal you don't have.

This can range from police sirens, car alarms, broken ATM machines, etc.

These sounds will only occur near an audiolog you don't have. So just roam the city and listen for these specific noises, and you'll find it.
