When i logged off i reloged on and now i cant gather resources off the creatures i kill ! Can any 1 help me !

What are you doing to try to harvest the resources (typing /harvest, using the radial menu, etc.), and what happens when you try to do it?

Make Sure you are letting the radial menu finish it's animation. Sometimes with lag that can take awhile. if you try too harvest before the little motes are finished in the menu, many times that will make the creature unharvestable.

Another thing to pay attention to is that sometimes someone else will have almost killed something before you got ahold of it, so when you kill it you don't have 'loot' permission which is required for harvesting as well. To check, if you don't get any response from a harvest command, try /looting the corpse to see if it opens up the loot window or tells you you don't have permission.

I'm also having the same problem. I've noticed this on creatures I've killed solo, and I definately waited for the animation to complete. Also, this started happening on my second logon, after I had switched from pistol to carbine.

How can someone give you permission to loot/harvest a corpse? Or can it not be done? Last night I was working with a marksman, and we decided not to team in order to get better xp, but he was doing slightly more damage, and I couldn't harvest anything (luckily I had a fair stockpile built up... but it's about to run low in about 5 camps or so).

I'm having the same problem. I haven't tried using the /harvest command, but it's definitely not working from the radial menu. I tried it on fresh creatures. I shot at at pile of leaves to spawn some chubas and when i killed them, I couldn't harvest. I killed a couple of NPC terrorists and wasn't able to loot them, either. Now I"m just sitting at my camp, trying to get to Survival II.

Another little bug I found that was similiar was when I wacked a baby(vynock babies give 10-11 units of bone everytime...sheesh!)of whatever species just so I can harvest them(I know u no longer get exp) it said:

I do not have the right to this corpse.

Weird since I kill all babies with one shot.

My experience with Harvest has been a bit buggy. There have been times when I have been unable to harvest anything off of 4-5 kills in a row. Not sure why this happens, but has happened enough suggest that some type of problem is going on.

I've had that exact thing happen to Saurin.

Someone suggested it had something to do with a camp being associated with someone's mission. Not sure if that's true, but it would be easy to test.
