So here's the VS Lumber issue I am encountering:

server-main.log
1.8.2026 22:20:07 [Error] Patch 3 (target: game:itemtypes/tool/axe-metal.json) in vslumber:patches/log-class-and-tiers.json failed because supplied path /class is invalid: The json path /class was not found. No such element 'class' at the root path

@Alodh: and what does that have to do with this mod?

My apologies, I must've misunderstood your response to others prior mine. But this does occur when both VS Lumber and this are used in-tandem.

Seems this doesn't play nicely with VS Lumber mod and Salty & Toast's Immersive: Minning mod sadly.

yes its incompatible with immersive mining, both mods do kinda the same thing. ill have a look at fixing the VS lumber thing

This also has issues with Logging Expanded too. I can't chop a log into a splitting block in that while this mod is enabled.

Tool Animations config has a option for the axe to split logs into firewood, it is set to true by default

what is weird is that this function is not mentioned in either this fork or the old mods page descriptions

 

I was having the same problem until I found this comment at the bottom of the old mod's page, while looking for the source of the conflict

https://mods.vintagestory.at/toolsanimations#cmt-65312

 

you can either edit the ""VintagestoryData\ModConfig\toolsanimations.yaml"" manually(notepad works) or use configlib to edit in-game

I was wondering what mod had prompted errors with VS Lumber. I'm gonna do some personal testing to see if I am having this issue at-present.

VS Lumber looks so cool and it wouldn't feel satisfying to have these two mods collide with each other. Perhaps, you can codify some behaviour to be bound with a boolean in this mod's config file and enable people to disable the colliding behaviour like Mira had with VS Village recently so Chiseled Block Retention would quit complaining about behaviours appropriated by it.

Thank you for updating the mod!

So after starting a new game the first thing i've noticed is that the axe refuses to cut trees. It will swing when aiming at nothing at all but the moment I point it at a block nothing happens.

@Alodh: can you send me your logs?

Well like they said, they can't cut trees to get any logs... 

 

 

/s xD
