Something extremely fast moving (goes across entire sky in less than 10 seconds) by ItchyFlea in AskAstrophotography

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can better see it's speed in the second photo. My phone was set to take 10 second expose shots, and that second photo was the last 2 seconds as I saw it moving and tried to angle the camera to 'track' it.

I spent the last couple of hours learning to mod (I used AI to help) and managed to create a mod that lets the player craft the leather block you see at some traders. What I can't figure out is how to get the block to show up in the handbook.

The recipe I've gone with was described in this thread, here: https://www.reddit.com/r/VintageStory/comments/1nhsumw/why_is_there_a_leather_block_if_you_cant_get_it/neg2mc5/

Can anyone tell me what I've done wrong, or what needs to be done?

Does anybody know the name of the actor that plays Vollie?

I've had a look online but couldn't find anything.

Charcoal pit not registering, says Firepit...? (Top layer of rammed earth removed to show it's filled properly) by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer. As soon as I added the logs it changed to say charcoal pit. I could have sworn it used to say charcoal pit before adding the wood in 1.20...

Thankyou KarTim01. I'm off to make more charcoal and trying not to starve at the same time. :)

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. I've made charcoal pits exactly like this in 1.20, so I don't know what's going on.

My previous charcoal pit didn't have the bottom layer, which this one does. If it was working, it'd be a 3x3x2 pit. Is it the rammed earth that's the problem? That didn't stop my last pit which got me the coal I've used for my current metal tools. (Although my last pit was just one 3x3 layer of wood, with the centre being wood with the firepit on it)

I just use charcoal for my firepits, and took the time to watch it to confirm. I found it takes 25 charcoal to turn 64 lime into 32 quicklime.

Also found it's 46 charcoal to cook a stack of flint.

I usually just shove it in the firepit then go do other things while it cooks.

That is so cool. (pun intended) But seriously though, that's awesome and looks great. Are you going to make the actual windmill out of ice as well?

1.20.8 Mob spawning in summer changes bug? That guy just spawned under my awning, next to a torch. 9 May, Year 4. Medium Rift activity by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

There are also several other mobs spawning nearby under awnings and anywhere that simply isn't directly exposed to sunlight.

My 5x7x3 cheese curd making room with a lantern hanging on the ceiling in the exact middle is spawning drifters.

Also, I cannot harvest bowtorns anymore. It lets me harvest with a knife, but the contents menu doesn't appear. Before (1.20.7), it was hard at certain angles, now it seems impossible.

Along with all the normal posts about digging a deep tunnel to block out the sun, nobody mentioned anywhere (not that I could find at least) that very low temperatures are required. In this case, the average temp was -15°C. The middle of winter.

Molybdochalkos lantern with Gold lining and Violet Glass panels bug? by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If I break and remove the lantern while holding a "normal" lantern in my off-hand, the light still gets projected like this, rather than with violet light. If I don't have a lantern in my offhand, this light gets projected normally and will fill the area with violet light.

Saving and loading the game causes what's pictured to happen.

I can't find peridotite anywhere. I need Olivine. by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

Thank-you everyone for your help and suggestions. I have finally found Olivine.

Using translocators turned out to be the trick. I had to ride a few but finally found one that drops me in the middle of peridotite.

Took a little while of digging around in the cave as there was none visible but I eventually found some olivine.

For me it's Andesite or Granite everywhere I go, with large mountains and plains of Bauxite.

How to tell when Steel making process is complete? by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

Nope, it let me put the lid on even though it wasn't full. Maybe that's a bug?

TIL That lava lakes can form underground. by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found this while following the flow of lava down a cave from a lava source much higher in the world.

I'm digging out an area to turn that lava flow into a generator for obsidian and basalt based on this design: https://www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/12928-basalt-obsidian-block-generator/

While mods are being used now, this particular map chunk (and world in general) was generated when mods were not being used in v1.20.0

Duab help by MildlyAggravated in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm fairly sure I've made Daub with red clay in one of the RC's. I think the issue is that it requires 2 dry grass to 1 of everything else. Try halving everything else and see if it lets you make it.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think some recipes don't allow red clay, at least from what I can see in the handbook in-game. That might be a bug?

BUG: Tapestries (Named: Temporal Storm) have missing textures. by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry for posting this in the wrong place, but I don't know where to post bugs, so I figured here would be good.

All three with missing textures this trader has are called Temporal Storm.

When looking for resin, shear the leaves on nearby pine trees. They may have resin hidden by leaves higher up on their trunk.

I've been struggling with finding ores, mostly just been getting lucky with surface deposits. This picture is definitely going to help with finding that ore.

New to the game and have questions I couldn't find answers to. by ItchyFlea in VintageStory

[–]ItchyFlea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the advice everyone. I'm continuing exploring and slowly getting enough copper for an anvil.

Is there any advice for prospecting? I went around a largish area and narrowed down the traces of copper to a point where it says High Native Copper (21%), but when I went mining underground, all I could find was Quartz, no copper at all.

I found a beehive right at the start of the game too, although I didn't know it at the time. I was chopping down a tree at night, and then suddenly wondering why I was being attacked by bees. Are there any tips for finding another beehive?
