compass

[Jonah_Hobbes 171]

Ok not new but I must have missed something. I have an old style bronze pristine compass. When I try and use it I get nothing, Have they changed how's it's used? All I can do open close and inspect;. I can't get to the old compass screen with the points of the compass on it, i don't actually need to use very often as I know the map but once or twice would be nice.

With the implementation of the newer compasses I think the bronze, older ones are just waiting to be removed. But  IMO they should stay, but just be an extremely rare but nice treat.

I have one, i put it in hands and go to first person and click the right mouse button.

Both style compasses work fine.

Just go to first person view, put it in your hand and "raise weapon", bringing compass up.  If it is hard to see, bend your head down.

It is set up now as you would use it in real life, not through a heads up display.
