Unable to sheath/unsheath since Update

[SnorlaxRae]

As of the 8/30 patch (and hotfix) I'm no longer able to sheath my weapon; a key (Q, toggle fists) I used often.

Started a topic about this issue. Nobody is currently able to... q.q

you currently just have to press the allocated hotbar key e.g. 1/2/3/4 etc to put something away.. same key as equiping the item.

I realize that but that's not what I'm used to doing when I need to use my hands for a moment. Nevermind the roleplaying aspect of being able to sheath something to your back. :)

that kind of mechanic is very rare even for pure rpg`s.. to name a few. skyrim. hellblade.. fallout with mods.

IKR i prefer seeing my weapon strapped to my back then seeing it just vanish. its little details like that that imerse you into the game without you even realising.
Same goes for the textures but thats been covered on other threads.
I hope this was just an oversight and not intentional.

Me too. We had it and suddenly not working so I imagine it was just something in the animations the got buggered. Sitting in wooden chairs is also messed up.

And I totally agree that it's those little things that make the game. Visible weapons mods are the first mods I look for in Bethesda games, LOL

Hard to play a ranger if you are walking around without a bow on your back while you cut wood.... this was one of those things that made me really enjoy this game over some others out there. Seems they are making changes in the WRONG direction and quickly loosing some player base due to some bad decisions.

I'm missing the Q to sheath quite a bit too. Got to be a habbit every time I went in my base or went into town to prevent me from miss clicking and damaging an NPC.

[KOBRA]

The same for me, i prefer to be ready unleash my fury at any moment, no matter wich panel currently on.

I change its keybind to TAB atm, works apparently, but I still prefer Q :(

How did you change the keybind? I didn't see it under the keybind options, or do you mean they changed it to tab?

[Zod]

I don't see how he changed it's keybind because shething was never listed in any form. Q was preassigned to that action. Now it doesn't work and Q can't be assigned to any other function, least it won't on mine. Just like when they decided to add the evade roll to left cntrl. You can assign L cntrl to some other functions but it will still roll the character as well. Honestly I hate to say it but in my 25 yrs of gaming, alphas, betas, tech tests bla bla like alot of you and seen my share of crap decisions and implementations that i'm sure ain't all the devs fault cause the head man makes the final call on all changes. This ain't the ark team and hope too see them get to that level but for now I just see a little too much sloppiness with what changes do get made and i'm not saying all of them but some. Mainly these unmentioned ones. If you make a needed change that breaks a function of anything for now because of upcoming changes at least state it. Like the Long Hair amongst some others,,, armor clipping. I mean really some modders could fix the armors. I fail to see why they can't take a small amount of time and just rerig them and be done with it lol. Oh well...

As well as the 'Q' button I cannot sit on my chair in my house and when I farm trees rocks it makes no sound - graphic - this is single player only though works in a server.

[William Bonney]

The "bare hands" deal doesn't leave it equipped, which is what you can bind to tab, though binding it to q doesn't seem to work.

Edited to add: not the same function though as the sheath/unsheath.
