Randomdude818 2 Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Some things I can select/pickup just fine, some things I need to scroll for it to give me the option to pick it up, but some things I just can't pick up at all for some reason. Examples of things: Baseball caps, hardhats, knives (OF ANY KIND), backpacks (Except for small child backpack), and a Payday 2 mask that I found in a warehouse. These are the only things that I have seen that I can't pick up but im sure i'll find more. if anyone can tell me what's happening here, that'd be great, because none of my friends have the same problem. I understand it's in early alpha, but still this is a serious game ruiner. If anyone can help me fix this that'd be great, but if it's because of it being in alpha i'll just try to deal with it.

BadAsh (DayZ) 1513 Posted April 13, 2014 Can you pick up these items via the inventory (press tab)? They should appear in the box on the left side named "Vicinity". You should be able to drag the items to your inventory there. It can also be desync issues, they sometimes prevents the player from interacting with anything. If they are occurring without you noticing it, it may look like it is certain objects, when in fact it all objects at the time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Randomdude818 2 Posted April 13, 2014 It doesn't say they are in the vicinity. The only thing that i've seen that shows up in my vicinity is rags and ammo, nothing else. I found a baseball bat and a can of food lying together, and I could pick up and drop the bat and pick it up again, but I still couldn't pick up the can of food. So its certain items in certain AREAS I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott61 93 Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) Items also must be able to fit into your inventory slots that are open,like a canteen for instance needs to slots one above the other/vertical whereas a rifle scope usually take two slots also but needs the two slots to be horizontal to one another. If you can pick up one item you can pick up any items,just need to figure it out,use TAB key to select inventory interface screen to drag and drop or even double clicking on the item in the vicinity area will select it and move it to an open area on you in your inventory.If double clicking does not grab the item for you then check to make sure you have room and do not need to rearrange your inentory to pack that item.You can place the small white Dot you see onto an item and the items name should come up,simply press F Key and the item will get selected and moved to your inventory. Keep trying,it must be something simple I'm sure ;) Edit,just read your last post.There some bugs still out there with some items and where they spawn or lay around sometimes Edited April 13, 2014 by Scott61 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
