Can't craft an Anvil

Post by CodyLeBlanc »

I've built a crucible and used it to forge steel, but i can't use the steel to craft an anvil. I'm assuming I need to do it on a crafting bench. The recipe I found was;

S S S
- S -
S S S

There's no photo and when I try clicking on the empty space it doesn't make an anvil either, so I know it isn't simply the graphic that's missing. Everything else I've tried to do in the mod has worked.

Has anyone else came across this?

Make sure you're using the most current BTW version (2.94).

Moving this to tech support since it's not a bug.

I ran into exactly the same thing; assuming you're running the latest version of BTW, are you using a texture pack? If you are, make sure it's fully up-to-date, otherwise you will have trouble crafting items not included on it.

I have exactly the same problem.

Not using a texture pack.
I even installed recipe book and looked through all the pages, anvil can not be crafted.
BTW version 2.94.

Also on side note, nethercoal is required to make steel, yet cant be made. I could not grind coal in the mill stone :(

That definitely seems like the wrong version.
Have you tried crafting steel tools in the workbench?

I think I know what might be going on. You probably downloaded from the thread in the Announcements section, which linked to an old version until yesterday. Sometimes FC forgets to update that link when he updates the mod. From now on download from the "New Release" thread in the discussion section, as that is the first one to be updated whenever the mod updates.
