It must be just a few players that are encountering this problem because I haven't had this problem and I have two hunting characters.

Could it be the location that is the problem or certain animal?

Ditto to Apache... except I'm not in Doryiskom Mountains (north). Gahh, the lions are going to take over.

I have the problem in more than one location, and with all types of animals there. If it is not a problem for everyone, then it seems like a problem with players and not locations or animal types.

Some of my characters can hunt, while others cannot. Bizarre. :?
Was it for this my life I sought?

I also cannot hunt. Areas include the Siom forests, Quillanoi forests, Zhift/Baaak region, Akypor forests and so on. Other players are reporting similar problems ingame, so I would say it's a majority but perhaps not all. Animals include moose, horses, hawks and lions (in that last case I didn't have a problem but another character reported one).

The hunting works for my characters (at least the ones I have tried with) in the English area, but not in the Swedish.

You should really try to do something about that island...there are gorillas on every location and since the decline in players they are usually 30+, killing off the newbies.
Perhaps they could turn on each other when many enough, or die from some mysterious disease...just a wish :)

Better again. Still at a a loss to explain the actual reasons.

Thanks, Thomas. Seems to be working again. :)

Busted for me again. I put it in flyspray. Apologies if that is not what we are supposed to do.

I believe it has something to do with the time.

e.g. Let's say I hunt 4 of 5 species on day 555-5. At 556-6, I discover I cannot hunt those 4, but the remaining species and any new ones are available and keep working. This even works if somebody wipes out the last of a species (say a lion) but then a new lion migrates in.

Hope that helps.

Hmm. . . I'm having the same problem again. Is this the sort of thing that should be reported as a bug?

I'm also unable to hunt in Seatown Garden or Xiria Forest. (I would have reported this in Flyspray, but so far I can't figure out how to add a comment to an existing task report.)

I have a char in Blit Forest (west) than can't hunt. I last hunted on 1005-4 and it's now 1007-0 and I'm still getting the error message saying I can only hunt that pack once per day. Doesn't seem to be affecting my other chars, though.

Yeah I came looking for this thread, actually. Some characters are reporting this in-game, roughly the same time-frame as the above, and I seem to be running at least a few hours late with some of mine now.
