How to Use the DOTS Projector in Phasmophobia
As with any other gadget or tool in a game, your first step is to equip the DOTS Projector. Next, you’ll have to look around for a hard surface, such as a wall, door, or the floor, and press the “F” key on your keyboard. Once you’ve hit the “F” key, the DOTS Projector will do what it’s meant to. It will project hundreds of little dots in front of you, covering the room.
Whenever a ghost comes near, you will be able to see the shape of the ghost as a silhouette under the projector’s dots. However, ghosts can and will likely appear then very soon after disappear just as quickly. So, make sure you are actively checking the room’s hard surfaces. Though, since the DOTS Projector’s main purpose is to help you view ghosts in Phasmophobia, it will have done its job by that point.
If you’re finding that you’ve been using Phasmophobia‘s DOTS Projector for a while and still haven’t seen much, you can try communicating with the ghost in an attempt to raise its activity levels! Just make sure to stay safe and keep your teammates nearby.
