Dropped your pack and it's stuck in a tree?

Then chop the tree down for firewood. Get your pack back.

Does that actually work?

[LeChat 131]

Yes it does work, Have happened to me on more than one occassion, the first two times chopping down a tree wasn't a possibility though as it wasn't implemented yet.

Nice, I lost count on how many backpacks and Mosins I gave up because of low branches ! 

Never happened since chopping is implemented.

 

Note to myself, don't drop axe under a tree...

Don't keep your axe in the backpack either...

I chop down trees in towns and across roads for fun. I hate when they don't fall the direction I want though...

For me, they always fall to the side that I'm standing on.

Yup this is how I got my buddies backpack back. He thought it would be a good idea to stash his backpack there while he scavenged Svetlo for me a backpack with loot. Turns out a tree is a good place to stash all sorts of gear so long as you have an axe. I leave scopes and pistols in them around big churches like ornaments for fresh spawns. Nobody ever searches for them though :D

I dropped an ammo box and it became a Christmas Tree ornament.

Doesn't always work. Painted an m4 stock and it decided to drop to the ground, ended up with the most inaccurate rifle ever.
