Sminky 5 Posted June 25, 2012 Love the mod, and played it solidly for a week or two when i first discoverd it some 6 weeks back. I and now dip in and out to try new features for half an hour or so over the last few weeks.With each new update i hope i can finally place my tent (resonable), that i've been carrying around for weeks.Each time 'nope'For me i really want to be able to carve out a little palce that is mine, my enjoyment of how i play would make that the intial ultimate goal.I really hope it' sorted soon. It jsut somehow seems hollow until i can Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nomorechillies 11 Posted June 25, 2012 open your inventory, and spam the tent while moving around, it works. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jaleno 4 Posted June 25, 2012 uh... They work pretty damn well at the moment, try spamming pitch tent, always does the trick for me.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JKflipflop 40 Posted June 25, 2012 you can still move around while the inventory is open. I just move around in a circle spamming the command until it sticks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Venomous (DayZ) 0 Posted June 26, 2012 Only thing stopping you from getting back into DayZ is yourself. Tents work fine at the moment. Albeit, it takes a little bit to get one down but as others have said just open your inventory, right click pitch tent, move around until it places. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrpiipe 1 Posted June 26, 2012 They are working pretty good right now.. Where are you trying to put it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johan (DayZ) 21 Posted June 26, 2012 I hear that moving backwards while trying to put one down tends to solve the issue for a lot of people Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fml 29 Posted June 26, 2012 Place it on a flat surface, and make sure if there is any direction that slopes down, face that direction and spam 'place tent' while moving around. If there is a slight downward slope in any direction you want to be facing that. I've placed many tents within 10 tries with this method. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aitloian 11 Posted June 26, 2012 yeah your playing an alpha game and quitting because one of the features is slightly glitchy lol. Go play a retail game Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jemoeder 51 Posted June 26, 2012 You have to open inventory / gear with G then walk arround and spam pitch tent it will happen after a 1-2 mins of spamming :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lahrmid 10 Posted June 26, 2012 The problem isn't setting up the tent, the problem is keeping your stuff inside them.Tent inventories are glitchy as fuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ZedsDeadBaby 2287 Posted June 26, 2012 Hint: Your hiding spot isn't as clever as you think. People are stealing from your tent while you're away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
