Can't use arrows since 1.41... #228087 07/05/04 12:13 PM

OP bod1969 stranger Joined: May 2004 Location: United States of England	Anyone else had this problem.....? I've collected over 300 normal arrows, built up an archer, installed 1.41 (over 1.4) and ever since when I try to attack I get "no arrows" come up. I've tried swapping arrows with the skeleton doll and deathknight but still no joy. I've now decided to sell all my arrows in the hope of recreating the arrow stack....although I haven't found any new ones yet. Before anyone comes up with the mind-numbingly daft suggestion of starting a new game, I'm on my 5th new game as I type. Bod ps.how does the idea of going to the cinema 5 times to watch a long-awaited movie only to have the projector break down 5 minutes further into the film each time sound?? Any takers...? pps.I haven't had so much fun since 'Elite 3 First Encounters'. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cry.gif" alt="" />

Sounds weird but it happened to me after I patched, 1.41 didn't 'notice' it was quickslotted so they didn't work. Probably not the answer but worth writing anyhow. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/offtopic.gif" alt="" /> United States of England? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/ROFL.gif" alt="" /> ====== Monkeh see, Monkeh do.

Sometimes a game will "lose track" of data that's already in a data field. Bad games do it regularly. Good ones do it on occasion when you install a patch, and change things around. By removing and replacing the item, you're reinforming the game. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" />
