Claw Hammer??????
I unlocked the perk that allows you to craft iron tools but I can't seem to craft a claw hammer, seeing that it is an iron tool I feel like I should be able to craft it. Is there another perk that I am missin?

you should be able to do that.
Did you unlock the Iron tools or only the forge ?
Pixie82 Dec 27, 2018 @ 10:36am 
I unlocked both, but it says I don't know the recipe

you started a new game in B240 ?

I just started my game 2 days ago after the stable update came out
Priest Dec 27, 2018 @ 10:41am 
hmm, strange
Sorry no more ideas

Two common reasons,

you are at the forge when you need to just do it from your inventory (exit forge interface).

You don't have the 12 iron and some wood in inventory.

I just checked and I can't make any of the iron tools so must be a bug
Pixie82 Dec 27, 2018 @ 10:43am 
I wasn't at the forge I was at the workbench, and I can't craft them from my inventory either so that is not the problem, and even if it were it wouldn't say I don't know the recipe

Just trying to help. I'll try one more time. If this time angers you again, I will stop...

Do you have any debuff active? Died lately? Taken off any glasses?

First of all I wasn't angry, I was just telling you that that wasn't the problem. And the answer to the rest of the questions is no. I am pretty sure its a bug I have seen similar bugs before the stable release in lets plays on youtube. But I thank you for your help, for now I am just spawning them in and throwing away the mats that are required to make them.

If you accept that crafting has bugs then it's possible it might say you don't know the recipe when the problem is something else. Suspecting a bug in one thing but insisting the msg to be 100% perfect accurate makes no sense. So I was just going through possibilities others have hit and I have answered many time before.

If you're 100% sure you have unlocked the perk to make them then sounds like a bug.

Just the the forge and tools are seperate perks since last patch and it would be pretty
easy to miss that and assume forge and tools are still the same perk without reading them.

did you verify the files after the download of the new "stable"?

If you did, then only way to fix it, is to delete the 7dtd folder in steam and let it redownload, plus delete all your old saves.

When alpha first came out the textures were terrible, Madmole was confused by this, but looked like much didn't get overwritten for some reason. I had to delete my save folder, delete 7dtd, I did a verify files, it downloaded the whole game again and everything looked good and behaved properly... minus the things I don't like about the new alpha, but that's in many different threads ;)

Yes, I am SURE tthat both perks are unlocked and I did verify files because I added smx and my old files had warofthewalkers installed so wanted to get that out of there and I did delete all saves because they were incompatable. I am almost 100% sure that its a bug at this point. Unless smx is the problem.

I have crafted the forge fyi, I had found a hammer so I already had one and was going to replace it because I was using it to craft the workbench. This is how I know both perks are unlkocked 100%
