Well, you're probs right about that. Was one of those days, I guess...It would have been better if you had kept quiet.
Here, the/a fix:
Long and short of it was that an in-game temporary language change was needed for that part so the game wouldn't soft-lock you out...Survivors Camp Bug Fix + Uncensor and Background Mosaics Fix
Before you install anything, remember that this is only for Steam version of the game.
Install those patches in this order:
1. Uncensor Patch (Steam only):
Mega
Install this only if your game is not uncensored already.
2. Mosaics Fix Patch (Steam only):
Mega
This patch further uncensoring game by removing censorship from background models and mosaics.
3. Survivors Camp Bug Fix for english language (Steam only):
Mega
After installing this patch you no longer have to change language to japanese to avoid survivors camp bug.
That said, I still really have the itch to quote or link a couple dozen of the ~100 posts talking about this issue, so I'm gonna stop here and quit while I still can... xD
