Making spears

[aero160]

Hello to everybody.

I just bought the game last week and had the time to play a bit. But I have a problem.
I'm in legacy 41 build, and it may be the problem, i'm not sure.

I've tried with planks and branches, but I just can"t create spears. The menu does not give me this choice. It gives me a lot but not this one.

I don't understand.
If anyone could help me. it would be nice.
Thx in advance.

I'll just point it out since you didn't mention it, but...
To make a spear, you'll also need a knife of some sort to, you know, carve and sharpen it

Yes sorry...

As I've watched videos to search, i've had different kinds of knives in my inventory with it.
Maybe not a hunting knife, but the others yes.
And saws, hammer and all to be sure.
That is why i'm clueless.

Maybe the wrong type of knife? A plastic knife isn't going to cut it. You can see what type of knife you need by opening the crafting menu and under survival you can see the spears there, check for the plain spear and what knifes are accepted.

For a spear you need both a plank, treebranch and something to carve with. Are you forgetting the treebranch? You can check the recipe in the crafting menu and what's greyed out is what you are missing. Third down from the menu at the left side.

I'm almost sure it wasn't the case, but i"ll try it as soon as I'm home.
And if it doesn't work, i'll try reinstalling the game, since it's not heavy at all.
Thx for the answers!
