Carbon Hunter Scope Issues

[Perfeckdark]

Hey all... Has anyone else had issues with trying to put a scope on the Carbon Hunter? I can't for the life of me get it working. I've tried all the rails, tried directly putting it on there, etc.....

You do not need rails if your placing a hunting scope on a Carbon Hunter. Place the CH in your hand, scope in your inventory then, place the scope on the CH...you have to be holding the weapon and the mod (scope) has to be in your inventory, not a chest/container.

Hello :),

The Carbon hunter aswell as the hunting rifle have a scope designed for them which will fit on both of the rifles. You can find the Hunting Scope in the game world or get it at one of the traders. For other Scopes you can attach the Improvised Rifle rail which is a side mounted rail. This should work with the hunter and the carbon version.

Hmm yes then I am doing it correctly. There's got to be a bug going on or something. I read maybe deleting the save game folder might help with scope related bugs? Anyways, Thanks for the help guys.

It may can solve the problem.
To do so you can follow these steps:

• Head to Appdata>Local>SCUM>SafeFiles
  
• Create a backup of your SCUM.db (Or entire Safefiles folder) somewhere else on your PC
  
• Head to Appdata>Local>SCUM
  
• Delete the "Saved" folder
  
• Start the game, the folder will be recreated up to date.
  
• Test if everything works before reimplement backup.

Note: Multiplayer characters do not need a backup. Characters are safed Serverside.

If this does not help, can you tell us the steps you did to install the rail on the Rifle ? A short video would help a lot to see what is happening.

Great thanks I'll try that and post a video if it doesn't work.

That worked. I am now able to have both in inventory and drag the hunting scope on to the icon for the Carbon Hunter and attach it. I still am not able to put it in the slot though whilst I have the gun in my hands.. They both need to be in inventory.. This has also been the case for any of the handgun attachments. Not sure if that's normal or not....... Thank you very much. Time for some bear hunting :) The long improvised rail still won't attach to the gun at all. Is that normal? Should I make a video of that?

Not all Rails fit on all weapons. The Side Mounted is especially for Semi rifles Like Kar98, Mosin Nagant and M1 Garand aswell as both Hunter versions because of how they are build. Assault rifles differ here and thus need another version of the rail.

Ahh thank you, that makes sense..

Speaking of that scope - if you put improvised bottle suppressor on your rifle, you can see part of it while scoping, but the issue is - in 3x and 12x scopes the visual size of the suppressor in a scope itself stays the same (like front part of a rifle with a suppressor it’s a part of a scope hud)
