Re: Clare Hart, Secret in the Shadows: All hidden objects are listed as "undefined"

HI @jetmyx 

Would it be possible to get a Screenshot of how this looks on for you?

  1. Use the Windows Key + S to pull up windows search window
  2. Search for  "Snipping Tool" and open it
  3. Select the "New" Option and drag your mouse over the game screen to take a snipet of how it looks
  4. Once done you will have a new snipping tool window with the Floppy Disc icon at the top, This is the save button to save the snippet as a png/jepg
  5. Save the image, and attach it in a reply to this post.

    HERE'S THE SCREEN SHOT. SRY FOR CAPS

    M

  • Here is my screenshot. 

  • The problem with Claire Hart Secret in the Shadows, Episode 1, Chapter 4 has not yet been fixed. The problem is that all items to be found are identified as "undefined". See the screenshot that I attached to this reply. Thank you.

    Yup, same issue.  It's super great that they issued a challenge for a broken game.

    Um, you marled this as solved, when it is in fact, NOT solved.  All that you have explained is how to get a screen shot, not how to fix the error.

  • Agreed. IT makes it very difficult (and tedious) to win this challenge.

    EA -- how about a fix, or at least a workaround!

    I agree totally. I had noticed that it said solved as well, when in fact it is not solved.

    I would hope for a fix soon as well, seeing it is a challenge

  • here's a screenshot of it saying "undefined" where there should be an item name.

    Here's a snippet from the latest Pogo Insider: 

    EA Pogo decisively recognizes there's a few problems....

    Heads Up, Home Page Feed, Latest News, Pogo Insider Archive|May 16, 2023 12:50 PM 

    Pogo Construction Zone – 5/16 

    Next, here are issues we’ve resolved and issues we’re aware of and working towards a resolution:

    Garden Blast:

     

    • We’re aware players not having enough bubbles to complete Garden Blast level 284-287, 293-300

    Missing MnM Completion Badges:

    • We’re aware of players not being awarded when completing album

    [Due to new overhaul of player's badges & albums collection--removing the old (RIP) & replacing w "My Collection."]

    Claire Hart 2 Secret in the Shadow

    • We’re aware of levels having undefined objects in challenges

    [Kind of difficult to find a hidden object in the detective-cop office when items are listed as "undefined."]  

    There were no 'issues resolved' listed in this latest episode of Pogo Insider.

  • @lesleyc6 ~ The only workaround is to use the Hint power-up (magnifying glass). I had close to 30 Hint power-ups for the last wkly challenge and was left w 3 power-ups. (I only play this game for challenges.)

    @JayDeeLight I did that. It's not worth the effort for a game that should work; especially one that is a Challenge.
  • @lesleyc6 - I absolutely understand the ongoing simmering frustration.  The prolonged delay to take action to correct reported game glitches seems incredible for today's day & age--for many reasons. For at least a month,  I've heard about the ClaireHart issue (& more) from several of my pogo friends who previously enjoyed all the hidden object games for well over a decade.  Some chalk up the inaction to lack of tech staff. My pogo pals believe all was well and perhaps somebody went into the game's guts to add or subtract something for that last weekly challenge (perhaps some type of maintenance similar to what affected a related episode chapter when for some unknown reason, the long-established 'hairbrush' item appeared renamed as a "comb").  That there is not enough time, or EA Pogo tech staff, to retrace whatever steps were previously made in order to fix the glitch / "undo" mistakes is not a real good "sign of things to come," no question. Yet,"hope springs eternal".

     EA Pogo's hidden object games, Claire Hart especially, has a unique, dedicated fanbase who, with rare exception are known to purchase newly-released episode after episode instead of badges.  And maybe a few power ups. (Many HOG fans pride themselves on completing a game with No Hints.)  It's not hard to understand that after a lengthy period of time has passed, any fanbase would become extremely frustrated upon discovering not just one, but several episodes of their favorite game is still showing needed hidden objects listed as "undefined." 

    Again, it seems the only comfort we can take at the moment is that EA Pogo is aware of it.  Altho it's not easy waiting for Claire Hart to be restored, we've got to hang in there for hopefully just a little bit longer.  Take care & good luck to you & everyone ~

    @JayDeeLight We shouldn't have to use our hints , it needs to be fixed , I put a fix request back in February and played it today June 5th 2023 and it still says undefined

    @JayDeeLight~ Yep! I noticed that, except for maybe 3 hidden objects, the rest of the items were still listed as "undefined!" I do not buy power ups for this game. After using the Hint button, all I could do was slowly click on every item until the Hint button refreshed. I did "find" a few items using the "slow click" method, but mostly I depended on the refreshed Hint button. It took way longer than it should have but I eventually got the 100 pogis.
