LDP487 What version of Vintage Story are you on? What version of calculator did you install? In your mods list in the game menu is calculator in the list and has a blue check that it's active and no warnings or errors? Finally in game, in the controls menu, is calculator in the list and if so is it marked in red and telling you another mod is also using F9? Let me know your results please.
I press F9, nothing happens. :(
LDP487 F9 :)
How to open it in the game? I don't see any hotkeys to use?
Madalovin Nope nothing changed, just updated to new version, cleaned a few things, but if you already have it installed you shouldn't need to update or anything. Old version is not broken, I'm just going through all my mods and spring cleaning since they're doing the update anyways :)
What did the 1.0.3 update do?
(1.0.2 seemed to work fine on VS 1.22+)
Also you can redact mod versions you've posted you deem broken by going to File -> Clicking on the Mod Version -> bottom right Retract Release. :p
Ready for 1.22, happy crafting!
Awesome! I'm happy it's working for you :)
forget the last comment
after downloading the latest version its all fine again
ty,good sir *bow*
Critcher
the ingame control settings? if so,it's not showing up
or i'm totaly dumb and blind
Added discord channel for bug reporting and back link to website
You can change this in the regular game controls config, it's adjustable there.
derp....suddenly F9 does nothing
don't know what other mod causes this
a config would be nice
ptrk That's a good idea, if I decide to go in a role play direction with my mods I will be sure to keep that in mind, thanks!
As a suggestion, if you're interested in making this something tied to an in-game item, you could make a little abbacus looking thing that a player could right click or carry around. In my head it's just a neat little idea to add near a forge for aesthetics and immersion.
@IILordTempestII , I'm sorry I'm really trying to understand where we are going with this. Are you suggesting just using the element symbols rather than the names? Like you would like to see the recipe for tin bronze say CU + SN rather than or in addition to the common names? Otherwise I'm not sure, things like bronze are an alloy, not a compound so there is no 'Bronze chemical formula' there would be many hundreds of different recipes that could formulate 'Bronze' and thus hundreds of different formulas.
Maybe let's try a different approach... If you were in game and using the calculator the way you would like to be, please explain what that would look like, what buttons would you press and what would you see on screen? What output do you see?
Critcher Perodic table. I tried to imply it but maybe didnt do the best job.
Like, Fe iron and Au gold. Combining stuff and adding numbers is for alloys or combinations such as the all too well known H2O for water.
IILordTempestII I'm very sorry but I'm not sure what you are requesting, could you please phrase the request differently for me?
If only there were some system to have elements and combinations of elements. Maybe some sort of table.
@TheRealFlynn Ah, yes you're totally right, totally didn't think about that on any of my mods, I will remedy with the next version and forward, thanks for the heads up
thank you for this!
Hi
Please consider adding a version number to your filename. Same fillename = utterly avoidable chaos
Critcher Actually it's really clear and comprehensible don't worry ahaha, with pleasure for the traduction, i'll send you with pleasure my traduction when it's done
@Maz Haha, that is so funny because the original version I tried to use icons for everything so there was no language barrier at all, but then I decided to go with the text labels everywhere. One day soon I will totally do that and I'll message you as soon as it's done. Thanks for doing translation services BTW, it's a really helpful thing for the whole community :)
Hey!
Just wanted to say thanks for the mod — really enjoying it so far!
I’m currently working on a French translation pack for Vintage Story mods, and I noticed that this one doesn’t use lang files yet.
Would you consider externalizing the text strings so they can be localized?
No pressure of course — just thought I’d ask 🙂
Cheers!
tymewizard Your wish is my command :) Pewter support added.
VaelophisNyx Haha, you win, I pulled out GIMP and the screenshots :) It does make all my mods blend in better with the rest on the site :)
Critcher nah genuinely most people dislike it at best. Lots of recent polls showing it around the web.
Just a screenshot of the mod UI would've sufficed tbh!
Is it possible to add modded ingots from like the Pewter Mod?
I saw other people starting to do it on other modding sites and I thought people liked it honestly. It's a lot better than I could do on my own that's for sure :) But I noticed around here people tend to use a lot more in game images so I might start doing that around here too.
but why the AI slop icon
Very nice. Thank you! :)
There you are, sorry this was part of a bigger mod package before and I've just broken it out into it's own mod.
Can you make it client side only?
Standalone version as requested
