Load arrows into improvised bow

Recommended Posts

So i've managed to craft this bow, and i've got composite arrows. I equip the bow, drag the arrow and select "load arrows", but nothing happens. What's wrong?

I'm guessing the bow is on your back/in your hands.  Check it out, it should now have a long silver arrow on it.

You load the arrows, it makes a slight scraping sound like you've drawn them on, but i don't think it lists the amount or icon of the arrows.

They should be there, and ready to fire.  It's a bit odd I know, I only played with the improv bow the other day.

 

Get up nice and close, you're going to find that your arrows like to fly off everywhere but where you want them.  Also try to recover them from the ground/beast should you be able to (sometimes they disappear or fly off to nevernever land)

Uhm no sound nor anything. Tried to shot but all i've seen was an empty bow string :(

did you plug it in? :-p

 

sometimes ammo that's dragged from a weapon, even though it's in the pack, needs to be 'ejected' before it can be used or combined with similar ammo.  right-click on the ammo and see if 'eject' comes up as an option.

the other day I was letting someone try my bow and it wouldn't fire for them, but it would for me.  so I made him his own bow and that worked.

hmmm. if you did everything right and there's no ammo in there, may be a new bug.

If you dragged and dropped the arrows, maybe you accidently dropped them, missing the bow and dragging them out of inventory screen (onto ground).

Maybe check around you, or try again if you've logged out since :S.

You should get a sound though like a string being pulled back, or a knife over slate when the arrows are loaded.

The magazine system honestly sucks for the bows and the crossbow. You can't put more bolts to an attached quiver on a crossbow and you have to make stacks of arrows for your bow and "load" them to your bow if you wanna shoot them.
