Quack,

Thanks for making this mod.

Various comments:

• like others said, lack of directions, it would be nice to have a guide explaning the basics (and the watering can trick)
• I did not understand "Harvest to grind chisel/axe into shape": you need to "knap" with another stone (maybe there's a better English word for this)
• I'm not sure how to properly position the patterns. could it be possible to get some visual preview of the shape borders when you press control?
• the well-crafted knifes and axes are kewl but the durability is equal to copper which breaks all the progression: I would suggest looking at the bone version and adding 50-100 durability. Also that would make both variant (flint and obsidian, more for axes) more interesting: you start with flint which is abondant, then you make the bone version, then you make the well-crafted version, and if you find better stone later then you can upgrade before having reached the copper age and created an anvil, which takes some time. here well-crafted flint or well-crafted obsidian gives the same advantages despite obsidian being more difficult to find
• the axe works on tree as expected but the knife only allowed me to cut grass/flowers: I cannot fight with it as it refuses to hit anything, and if used in the crafting grid the recipes do not work

This mod is great, but could use some more HUD info and guides. There's no clear description on how to craft polished axe heads, for instace! 

Annastasija Oh, thank you very much for the confirmation! I was loathe to add anything that might break things, as the only time I play this game is on a server with friends.

You are very appreciated.

It works just fine right now. I have been using it for weeks. TheSinisterRat

Very excited to see this one updated - saving a spot for it in our server's modlist.

I was specifically looking for more cave art, but this adds many lovely pieces on top. Thank you immensely for your work and for sharing it with us!

does this work in 1.20.4

Aphemorpha You can erase wall art by spraying it with a watering can! I highly reccomend getting a watering can ready before attempting any complex designs so you can erase any misplaced symbols induvidually

Cuddly_Khan Will be fixed in the next update

how in the world do you erase wall art?

Purple Ochre is uncraftable because it shares the same recipe as Red Ochre (More symbols). 

really love this mod but i think it disables ground storage for ore chunks that can be used as pigments?

Thalius Hello, I have uploaded a mod called "No Ochre Tools", you can install that along with this mod to disable the tools.

Love the mod concept, but REALLY do not want all the stone tool additions and changes.

Is there a stripped down version of this that just adds the really cool wall drawing and decorating related stuff?

what are the clothing pieces?

Thanks for creating and maintaining this mod! 

I play without a map so this mod is indispensable for allowing me to mark out paths and waypoints, and generally post up directions around the world.

Am I right that simply deleting the JSONs for tools in the itemtypes folder would remove them from the game? Or are there additional steps I’d need to take? Seems to be working for me, but curious if you can see any long term implications. Just trying to keep the game as vanilla as possible from a mechanics perspective.

It seems like the purple ochre is uncraftable. The handbook shows putting 2 red ochre in the top left crafting grid but that just converts the red to the next shape set.

yapludepatte Yes indeed! The "More geometric shapes" item has multiple sizes of dots to paint with

does this mod adds a dots of various sizes ? could be cool to do writting and drawings on walls and all !

Woo, let's go!

Many Thanks

OMG It's here!!!!!

Yelb Annastasija Update 1.3.0 for Vintage Story 1.20 is out!

So.. 1.20 update any time soon?

Really eager to see this mod updated to 1.20 with the new stuff !

Maquin Solid squares and dots are coming next update! As well as other geometric patterns!

Yelb You make an excellent point! When I release the next update (thats happening soon!) I will include more screenshots here on the modDB

The added symbols are useful and they're fun to decorate with, you can make a lot of interesting patterns and emojis with them.

The only thing keeping this mod from being absolutely perfect is the absence of simple solid squares and/or dots. When I was using this I was thinking how great it would be to be able to make caveman pixel art. I know that you can do that with chisels but it would be nice to be able to do that in a more limited capacity with cave art decals since chiseling fundamentally changes the chiseled blocks into a different block.

@Yelb I went ahead and took some screenshots for you.

Hello, do you have a screenshot all of paints/arts/drawings we can do ? Thanks

Stratateles Thank you for the kind words! <3

Hey, just wanted to say that I'm super glad the mod is still receiving updates! Love the new cave art icons!

Tangvald It is a very similar process to the chisel, you craft the grindstone with two hard rocks to get the unfinished stone axe head. You place down the unfinished head and hold right click, it will take more time than the chisel.

Hey, thanks for asnswer!

Tangvald To craft the stone chisel you will need a grindstone, it can be made from any two stones. Then you need to craft the grindstone with a hard rock. (Granite, basalt, peridotite, or andesite) This will give you an unfinished stone chisel, place it down and hold right click for a bit to make the chisel.

Hi. I was just wondering how to craft the stone chisel. Can't find out how.
