Help, I can't forge/enchant weapons

[Faultier]

So I tried to upgrade my weapon (galaxy sword) in the forge. However, it's grayed out, I can't even put it in the slot. I realized that for some strange reason all my weapons are categorized as tools and now suspect that could be why I can't upgrade them.

Has anybody had a similar issue to this and maybe got an idea as to how I can fix it?

fyi, I have mods installed, but ofc I don't know if any of them caused this.

So far I only tried verifying the game cache. My next step would be to deactivate all my mods, create a new save and check again. In case that would make the weapons be classified as weapons again, I'd load the old save file to see if that one was okay, too. In the new save I'd reactivate the mods one at a time to find out if/when anything changes. If weapons were still shown as tools after deactivating the mods I'd reinstall the whole game and again check if anything had changed. Anyone got a better idea for this?

Can you enchant your tools?

Replying here to help others, as this seems to be the only half decent google result for this problem..

Figured out the problem that is causing this is the mod "Yet another harvest with scythe" - there is an option to allow harvesting with swords, which changes all weapons to tools. Either change the option in the mods config file, or under 'mod options' if you have genericModMenu installed. This fixed it (and reverted the weapons back to original) for me.

Apologies for the ressurection.

Thank you so much for your reply! I didn't figure it out yet, so I'll try it asap. I bet that's it because I have do indeed have this mod installed and deactivating + reactivating all my mods only temporarily solved it.

Edited to add: It was the "Yet another harvest with scythe" mod!

I"m having the same problem, and I don't have any mods. I enchanted my Galaxy Sword the first time I made it to the forge because I didn't have any other gems in my backpack. Now when I go to the forge, all of my weapons and tools are grayed out. I can't enchant them or forge them anymore. Would love to figure this out. Any suggestions?

First, the 1.5.4 version update added enchantments. Normally you can only enchant with Prismatic shards once, and a second enchantment changes the power that was added.

However if you use mods, you can use the MANY ENCHANTMENT mod in which
you can enchant your weapons and tools many times, in different ways, but only a certain number of times each way. Except for with the Galaxy soul, which needs 3 enchantments to get to full power.
You can also enchant once or more times with each of specific gems. Using prismatic shards you can enchant 5 times to get a random power added to you weapon.
Using Ruby will increase the damage power of your weapon, I have upgraded my Galaxy sword many times with Ruby's to max 220 damage per hit.

But you will need to collect A LOT of Cinder shards.
There is a mod that allows you to add more items to Crystalariums, including Cinder Shards, which helps to get enough for upgrading your weapon and tools.
