Haunting Photos Guide
By lake.kubilius
The first time I played this game, I was missing several bits of "Evidence," so I know that people might want a hand with this. (I was unhappy for years because I couldn't find the last photo. Turns out, it was literally impossible until now!) So here are all of the possible items, described as spoiler-freely as I could manage.

Sure! Glad that finally worked for you!

You're right! For the Phantom Photomaster achievement you have to complete the game (using the German version) and get to the credits (I actually left the room while the last few scenes were going, so I'm assuming it popped during or after the credits). Thank you VERY much for your guide and assistance! :)

If you try that, please let me know either way. I kinda feel bad that I don't remember what I did well enough to be more helpful!

If I recall correctly (no promises on that, it's been quite a while), the Steam achievement for this does not unlock until just after you beat the game. I DO think you're right that this one needs the language trick though. So... have you tried beating the game in German? :-)

Any suggestions if the language change trick doesn't work? ...I'm kinda in that boat at the moment. It did work for the Saxton Sherlock achievement, but so far this particular achievement is just stubborn.

Glad to hear it! :-)

yes sorted it out, back up english .exe, change to german, replace the exe with the english one, load a save at the end of the game and got it. :D

There's a bug in SEVERAL of the achievements. There are discussion threads about that in the main forum. The solution you'll need for that involves doing some odd things with the language settings of the game, unfortunately.
