Synaux Posted November 27, 2011 Share Posted November 27, 2011 Okay, I have been playing Skyrim for several days. At level 42 I decide to try and use some arrows in a city (sorry forgot the name of it) where they were about to chop some poor sap's head off when I enter. I creep far enough to be hidden and get my bow out and shoot at the executioner, only thing is that no matter what i do the arrows only shoot ~5ft. This is an annoyance and makes my want to take a poo on my Skyrim disc and Fedex it in one of those cooled containers (you know for perishible foods) directly to Bethesda. I have searched for a while with no avail for a fix. I tried the max arrow shooting setting in the SkyrimPrefs.ini (got it from somewhere on this site). I installed a patch so i could actually use my Logitech Rubble Pad 2 (it works but doesn't help my dud-arrows) I disabled 360 controller--"oh wow I can shoot arrows now!" Then i restarted the game and cant shoot arrows again... I have tried disabling and renabling it MANY times, but it hasn't worked since that one time. In SkyrimPrefs.ini I changed "bGamepadEnable=1" or 0 and back several times too... Please help... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frapfap Posted November 30, 2011 Share Posted November 30, 2011 how about hold in yur shoot button till the bowstring's drawn all the way back, hold it there, aim, and let go of the shoot button (whatever it is for you, for me its left click)... or if yur very close toa corner of a building or a wall, it can hit it.
