Hello hunter :) You cant open invetory while you using those animations from last update.
It was set like this in last update becouse of problem with server crashing methods .. :)
So its not problem on your site - everyone has it like this.

But one more question just for make sure we thinking about same - CAN you do this animatinou while you dont have opened your inventory or no ? If you cant do this animations then is problem somewhere else in your setting becouse animations from F1 to F11 + salute or other normaly works for everyone. You only cant do them while you have opened your inventory.

Hello Huntervsgaming15 and thank you for the report.
As MarekQX has mentioned above, is it possible for you to use the gestures when the inventory is not open? And if not, can you try to remove the contents of your C:\Users\*username*\Documents\DayZ and let us know if the gestures do work with the default keybindings? (the gestures are set on the F keys by default http://dayz.wikia.com/wiki/Gestures).

Geez

My F1-F11 emotes are all default keys. The F1-F11 emotes work fine without the inventory open. When the inventory is open the F1-F11 emotes don't work. when I assign the Military salute, lay back sit, and the hand heart emotes a key they don't work.

Thank you huntervsgaming15.
The gestures cannot be used when the inventory is open intentionaly. However, key binding the gestures to other keys than the default ones should work. Which specific keys have you tried to bind and had issues with and which language settings are you using for your keyboard in windows? Also, did you remove the keybinds from their initial binding? (For example, if you have bound the salute gesture to Num 7 key, have you also removed the 7 key from its original (Look left up) binding?)
