NEW VERSIONS

It works fine for me lol

I'll check if it broke on the latest version but it should work fine.

If the mod don't work for you (game v.1.21.0) then change game version in the modinfo.json to your game version. It is set to 1.18.0 by default. Also check the list of disabled mods in serverconfig.json if running local server.

Can confirm that Toolsmith seems to have updated to allow reading about axes, logs and sticks now for 1.20.X in conjunction with this mod.

At least with my setup.

It works fine on every 1.20.X versions. It should work on 1.21.X but I didn't tested it. DeadMartyr

I know the latest version supported is 1.20.4, but what's the likelihood of it working stable-ly on 1.20.11 (and the 1.21 pre-release)? I was just about to post on the discord with stoneage chiseling as a recommendation and found this mod, seems exactly like what I am looking for.

That's a Toolsmith issue, I can't do anything about it sadly. AzzyBunn

Combining Toolsmith and Early Chiseling causes the game to crash whenever i open the handbook to read about Sticks, Logs and Axes.
Here's the crashlog: https://pastebin.com/z0vruqKy

How to reproduce:
-Load the game with those 2 mods
-Press H on a Stick, any kind of Log or any kind of Axe / open the handbook page for them

I have left the same comment over at the other mod's page. 

The crash appeared on a modpack of ~120 mods, but i have narrowed it down to just those 2. Without Early Chiseling it doesn't crash.

Other rocks are too soft to be used as chisel. Flint is the only alternative I had to make this mod but it's not too hard tho.

Any chance to have a version that allows more kinds of stone to be used for the chisel besides just flint?

It's using the same code as the base hammer... I can't do nothing about it sorry ;-;

The wooden hammer appears to be able to be used for smithing, which is... less than ideal.

It should, yes. No changes where made to the chisel and hammer code so... RoseWillow

Does this still work on 1.20.1?

I'll check it out this week ^^

Thx for the report Pilzpott

Will lead to crashes after the current  1.20 rc.4 patch

gg

Thanks for the quick reply !

AntisocialCat Hihi, is not a mod issue, that's an already reported bug on the game a few versions ago. I'm using the base game chisel class so it has to be reported to devs.

Hello, there appears to be a bug where it doesnt actually destroy the flint chisel but instead it makes it invisible... it will still occupy the player slot and break after breaking 1 or 2 voxels. This can repeat a few times before being fully destroyed.

I've changed my local version of the mod so that it yields only 1 chisel with twice the durability. It's what happened to knapped knive blades in vanilla too. Sure, it doesn't feel as neat while knapping because you visually feel like you waste flint, but it's just neater to produce a single item.

Not a bad idea, I'll change it once I've some free time ^^

Have you thought about renaming the wooden hammer to mallet?

Thx to you for the great idea 😍

And if you want to continue with the developement of your mod you can use this code as it was your idea

Lith

thanks for continuing this :)

I could add an obsidian chisel, but it's what Sachmo and you said, obsidian it's very sharp, and for tools like spears, knifes or arrows it was a very good choice, but it's like cristal as you've said, it breaks when hitting something solid so... if you want I can make it, but it'll have less durability that the flint one to keep it a bit realistic ^^ (and obsidian it's hard to find but flint's appears everywhere)

Fun fact: the people of Rapa Nui, AKA "Easter Island", used basalt chisels to sculpt the famous Moai heads. It was possible to use basalt tools because they were sculpting tuff, which is a very soft rock composed of compressed volcanic ash. They had access to obsidian, but obsidian would just shatter against the tuff, so they didn't really use it for stone carving tools :)

That's fair. I like it as is, then. Perhaps maybe as a recipe for obsidian chisels would make sense. Obsidian is pretty sharp and glass like though, so I doubt it could realistically work as a chisel except for like, only wood/weak materials. Which I imagine is outside of the scope of this mod.

It's possible but I did it this way to balance it.

100 durability x 3 = 300 durability. A copper chissel has 600 durability and you need to find copper, mine it, melt it and then smith the chisel. With the flint ones you just pick a flint off the ground and punch it a few times so, to make the process of copper processing(and other metals too) have its advantages I decided to reduce the total durability of this ones.

Another option could be 70 durability each and 3 chisels for each flint, but you'll need 3 slots to store those chisels instead of 2.

CaramelGuy

Neat mod, but why not invert the chisel recipe to be able to make 3 chisels at once? Seems possible.
