The only weapon that never worked on a weapon rack for me was the axe you get from the Jarl of Whiterun. Everything else works fine.

The one in Whiterun was a bit strange ... It wouldn't take one of my swords, and the Axe of Falkreath sits strangely ... other than that, it does its job for the most part.

I'm glad there's multiple posts about this. I'm hoping Bethesda sees this and adds it to their to-do list of things to fix in a future patch. Hopefully it won't take too long.

Equip the weapon you want to put on the rack, and click activate.

You should be able to simply walk up to it and be provided with the option to display your weapon. You must have it "equipped" but you don't actually have to have it out like many people think. But mine simply does not give me the option. Nothing pops up.

You don't get an option it simply puts the weapon that is equipped to your right hand in the rack when activated, it won't recognise anything you have in your left hand.

When I walk up to the weapons rack there is NO OPTION whatsoever. Not with a weapon sheathed. Not with a weapon drawn. It doesn't matter. No matter what there is no option, no matter what I try to get it to recognize anything at all. This is definitely a glitch. I just hope that someone can tell me whether or not this is an issue throughout all homes.

Also, a bigger issue is dropping items and moving them.

When you drop an item on the ground and then place it somewhere, say on a table and then leave the home and come back it moves back to where you originally dropped it. Not where you placed it. If you move it a second time I think it stays. Quite annoying. This problem seems to be consistent with people that suffer from the inability to place weapons on racks. Surely, this will be patched. Well, maybe. At least I hope so... (not holding my breath).

This seems to be a PS3 problem. I know on my PS3 the weapon rack in Whiterun house will not allow me to activate it. Maybe 360 problem too? Or maybe its that specific houses problem? All I know is, some weapon racks work..some dont...

I just wish ALL weapon racks allowed you to place stuff on them... same with ALL bookshelves..

I really its just this house. As long as its not an issue in larger houses, I'm fine with it. But something tells me this won't be the only issue we see with this.

I'm not saying your game isn't glitched I was just saying how the racks worked for me, as for your second issue I think that happened to me actually... Hope a patch fixes things like this soon.

Sorta stupid how something as basic as this could be missed when the other more complex details seem to be perfect... oh Bethesda how I love and hate you.

Mine doesn't either. Having several problems with Honeyside actually. Questmarker tells me to go back to the jarl to become thane but no dialogue option appears. I also seem to have an empty room in the basemant as if I missed an upgrade, but I haven't. My mannequins do work though :)

The strangest thing of all is how it works on some consoles but not on others. These are always the hardest bugs to find and fix.

There has been a patch announced for consoles. I REALLY hope that this issue is addressed. It would set my mind at ease if I simply knew it would be. As of right now I don't expect them to fix it. Also, placing items is an issue as well. Items that are dropped and then placed on shelves, tables, etc. appear where you originally dropped them after you leave the area and come back. This is a huge nightmare for anyone that likes to display items around their houses.

I know it may sound silly and many people may not like to do this but after coming back from a quest one of my favorite things to do was to come "home" and put all my new stuff around my house. This really messes that system up. Also the grab function in Skyrim is not nearly as good as the one in Oblivion. I'd like to be able to grab different ends of items and not have the game center the item automatically.

Are any 360 or Playstation 3 users getting weapon racks to work consistently? It seems that it is a major problem on consoles.
