sneakydudes 278 Posted November 27, 2015 SO i got so excited i found two of them, both different. Wanted to finally put a by pod on AK74, or the AKM. 1. Figured out the hand guards don't come off.2. Paint the one hand-guard on the AK74 and Whompa!, goes to my backpack.3. Try to paint the hand-guard on the AKM ----RED as shit. No painting allowed, i guess at 50% green can.4. No by pod on AK74 after putting the rail hand guard, ok fine it is not suppose to work. move onto the AKM which i want the hand guard on, and the bypod anyways. Painted the ak74 black and it came off finally the hand guard.Painted the AKM mag, green 100% and it paints it.Tried to paint the hand guard on the AKM and no fucking way will it paint or come off any way i try it. So run off to another area and low and behold lost my perfect m68 - ump pristine gun in my backpack. Fucking logged off This shit used to work, why all of a sudden is this so fucked up? wasted my whole day trying this shit out.Oh ya alpha forgot, went backwards. Still either make them work, stop making it different, your not helping us test this garbage out you know. Warn us or something your making it different, i am double handling my bug reports. today was my whine fest.... just pissed me off is all. /rant off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KenoSkir88 181 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) I've layed out easy instructions for handguard / bipod application in a different thread, think it was called "AK-74 Handguards" or something similar. If you follow all my steps correctly you can change any handguard, and add a bipod to any ak (except 74u). Edited November 27, 2015 by KenoSkir88 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sneakydudes 278 Posted November 27, 2015 Thanks bud, just needed someone to tell me how. I was like so furious over it losing so many weird things today. It was a massive bug day for me i guess. Nap time LMAO Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sneakydudes 278 Posted November 27, 2015 (edited) To swap a sticky Handguard : 1. Place weapon on your shoulder, have empty hands.2. Double click Handguard on shouldered weapon to take it into hands. Discard Handguard.3. Keeping weapon on shoulder, drag new Handguard to the weapon and click Attach Handguard. Now more wizardry to get Bipod on (AK specific atm) : 1. With handguard rail attached to weapon, shoulder weapon.2. Paint Handguard rail on shouldered weapon Black (yes it is already black).3. If Handguard jumps off gun during painting, re attach as above.4. Once Handguard rail is painted Black, attach Bipod. thanks to KenoSkir88 Edited November 27, 2015 by TheSneakyDude 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Red_Ensign 990 Posted November 27, 2015 why the f*** would you have to paint something to attach a part? sometimes the bugs here just astound me. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Still either make them work, stop making it different, your not helping us test this garbage out you know. Change doesn't necessarily mean improvement, but if you wan't improvements you will have to accept changes.You might not see it yet, but the inventory system has had some major changes, that we will benefit from, once the new UI is fully fuctional, implemented and designed. If weapon handguards break during this process, we shouldn't complain, especially not when there is a workaround. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sneakydudes 278 Posted November 28, 2015 oh give me a break, double click put into hand then paint black only to put rail on! complaining is our way, you should know that by now hasi :) Its frigging alpha...... we are allowed. still pretty screwed up way of attaching hand guards.

sneakydudes 278 Posted December 1, 2015 IT works but one heck of a work around. and green doesn't work btw. tried tested and messed up. Ready for the next one? Paint gun with ghillie wrap, with hunters scope and it crashes the game.Green or black, doesn't matter rifle but was a cr527 and can be a blaze too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
