how to equip gloves?
« on: July 06, 2012, 07:47:06 pm »

Hi,

My dwarf had the gloves he started with equipped. I purchased a new pair and removed and sold the old ones. Now I'm holding the new gloves. When I press w there is nothing I can ware the gloves show up as a weapon instead of an equipped item.

Thanks for the help.

They probably don't fit you. Did you buy them from a human town's store? I think human gloves are too big for anything else.

Idk all the other armor I got fit even the boots.

Do I need to put them in a container first or anything? I'm not sure how it should work... My first gloves lol

Make sure it's a lowercase "w." Anything wearable should pop up on that screen. If the gloves fit, and you have nothing on your hands, they'll be on there.

It shows them in my hands as if I'm holding them but they are not highlighted like my other equipped items.

Are they Large gloves or Small gloves? If so you cant use them.

Make sure you arent already wearing gloves or mittens.

Try putting them in your backpack (assuming you have one).
