Jachim 22 Posted July 12, 2012 Hiya,Just started Day Z a few days ago. Today my character seems stuck in freelook and I can only go straight and strafe. Also when I alt-tabbed a few times my gun randomly just starts discharging. =/ Kinda annoying.Any fix or just relog? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
decypheriify 2 Posted July 12, 2012 Hit 'Alt' twice, I had the same issue, till I realised that I'd toggled free-look on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

species5021 28 Posted July 12, 2012 Dont try to put rifles into your starter backpack, it will disappear at the moment. Also if you are stuck in walk mode double tap left shift. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sixbarns 217 Posted July 12, 2012 You need 10 slots to put a weapon in your pack. Anything less and the gun will vanish. Bug, known. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrispow 3 Posted July 12, 2012 Press * to get out of freelook.Before you ALT+TAB out press Esc/pause so when you go back into game your gun won't fire.Open your map, even if you don't have one. This'll stop you from firing when tabbing back in. It's slightly safer than opening the escape menu since there is a big juicy respawn button there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's slightly safer than opening the escape menu since there is a big juicy respawn button there!That is a very valuable piece of information, and it can save lives. Once, I had an accidental discharche with a CZ550 after an alt-tab. That gun is so loud, that everybody and his mother came running to my position after that shot. I had to run and fight for my life, almost didn't make it.Good tip, thanks for sharing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
