Legendary Pelts going missing after mission
So im trying to get legendary animal pelts/skin to give to my trader but most of the time when i start the mission from harriet, kill and skin i spawn with no pelt or skin. Its like a 1 in 10 that i actually spawn with the skin or pelt. Is this a bug or is this intended. Makes no sense

If the problem is related to previous pelt loss issues which it seems like it is, then sometimes verifying your files will help.

No solid solution yet though.

I also lost a pelt earlier. Started skinning, it takes control away and finishes out the mission. Plays the loading clouds and then I am standing in the area, with my horse nearby, but I was not holding a pelt. Got everything else except for the pelt that I should have been holding.

A short while later, the little "lost an item" message popped on screen mentioning the pelt.

A few weeks ago before the major patch, a lot of people were having "pelt disappears" issues and the same thing would happen. You would skin something and then while holding the pelt, it just goes poof and a few moments later the game tells you that you lost the pelt. We don't see the pelt disappear at the end of a legendary animal mission because we are on the loading screen when it fades away.

That is if this is a related or similar problem. It could be a new problem that is just as annoying because some of those legendary animal missions are totally crap.

seeing they did not patch the old "pelt vanish" bug, i don't see them patch this one at all. it is R* after all, they don't patch bugs, they make bugs go away with new content and create new bugs, sometimes they create a monster bug where the old bug gets worse then it was before.

From the minute the Naturalist update launched I had ZERO issues with pelts until tonight. Was broken af before.

yes like i said, they never fix bugs, they cover them up with new content but eventually the old bugs creep up again.
this game has the weirdest bug logic, i run this game fairly ok for weeks months even, nothing changed to the hardware and all out of the blue the game starts to boot up on the wrong monitor, before you ask yes the correct monitor is set in settings, in fact i actually need to set the wrong monitor in game to make it apear on the correct one! its INSANE.

same for my mouse software G-hub, i launch the game and the software crashes, and i can only load it again after the game is fullyloaded, how the F do you ♥♥♥♥ that up (make a note the software never failed before on me when booting the game)

all in all i really can't complain much, i see other people on here that can't play at all, i can ... the minor annoyances i have are really nothing to what i see others have. but still there is no logic in half the bugs this game has.

this is an old thread. If you respawn after getting the pelt there is problem for sure. If the pelt is registered by the system it should be marked in your inventory of the horse or when you go to a trader you should see the legendary clothing available for that pelt and not locked out.

Some other pelts are required to make various clothing or trinket options.

I have not personally experienced not receiving the pelt before.

I've had situations where I thought I lost pelts because they disappeared from the back of the horse, only to see them in the inventory when I went to turn in other ones to Pearson or the trapper.

Yes, I experienced samething. But one thing that does tick me off is if you have three horses and you load them up and then go out of sight of them the third horse despawns taking everything you put on it. unrecoverable. Two horses no problem, three and one despawns but is random as to which one. You always keep your main horse.

Skins are probably useless by now.

It's been virtually five years since the thread started
