Homemade Saw - Build 40 (Stable)

Description
Note:
This mod is ported from my "Homemade Saw" mod for Build 41+, and changed to work properly with the Build 40 - Stable version of the game.
To make Disassembling of furniture with Homemade Saw possible, a slight change (to include this type of Saw) needed to be made in the files: "ISMoveableDefinitions" and "ISMoveableSpriteProps". That means, other mods which are also making changes in these files, wont be compatible with Homemade Saw mod.

Create your own homemade replacement for saw or garden saw, if you cant find them anywhere.
(This mod should work without problems on existing saves, but in case - remember to make a backup of your save first)

If you were not very lucky in finding any Saw in your gameplay (like me), or maybe you would want to live in the woods, but dont want to spend lot of time looking for this important tool - then this mod should be helpful for you.

With this mod, you can create Homemade Saw with 3 Tree Branches, 2 Ripped Sheets, 2 Chipped Stones and 1 Stone.

Condition of your crafted Saw will be determined by your Carpentry level, and randomized between the specific range, as below:
Level 0 = condition from 0.1 to 0.2
Level 1 = from 0.2 to 0.3
Level 2 to Level 4 = 0.4 to 0.5
Level 5 to Level 7 = 0.6 to 0.7
Level 8 to Level 9 = 0.8 to 0.9
Level 10 = 0.9 to 1.0 (1.0 is max condition)

Saw can also be fixed/reinforced with 1 unit of Wood Glue or 2 units of Glue, for each repair. But to unlock the ability to reinforce these tools, you will need to have at least Level 1 of Carpentry Skill.
Reinforcing/repairing these tools is also related to your Level of Carpentry Skill, and works very similar as above.

Important note:
Theres also included additional extension for the mod - Homemade Saw with Vanilla Recipes - which can be enabled or disabled by your choice in mod list.
Some recipes are by default bound to the original Saw items, instead of all "Saw types" items, and this mod make it possible to craft them, using also your Homemade Saws.
Heres list of added recipes:
Make Mortar and Pestle, Saw Logs, Make Sturdy Stick, Make Wooden Cage Trap, Make Snare Trap, Make Trap Box and Make Pipe bomb.

Hope you will like this mod - and have fun without the need to spend lot of time to look for your precious Saw!
Thanks!

Hey! Steam finally restored my mod page for the build 41: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2488316681

Ok, no problem. Glad to hear you like this mod, thanks! Its been already 3 years since i made it, and its always nice to hear that people are still using it.

Yes, homemade screwdriver idea sounds good - though there may be already some mod on workshop that covers it, i would need to look around. But i will keep your suggestion in mind if i decide to work on some next 'homemade' mod.

Ok, at the moment i can live without my homemade saw since i have some wood stored in my base for the upcoming days, i will be waiting though.

Just a little suggestion; adding also homemade screwdrivers, would be really helpful for pure wilderness survival runs, since notched planks cannot be created without anything else other than screwdrivers i think, so yeah, would be absolutely amazing to have. Great mod anyways!

Oh, i see. Sorry about that - i already contacted steam support, hope it will be resolved soon and they will bring the mod back.
Until then, if its urgent - you can add me on discord (nheve), and i will send you the mod directly there.

Sorry, not sure since the moment i saw it was not loading in steam i assumed the mod was deleted, so i unsubbed to make sure my save wasnt affected by this sudden change.

Hopefully i can sub back again when the problem is solved, since its a very useful mod for foraging runs.

Hey. I updated the mod today with some fixes, and then after updating description on page it got hidden by steam 'automated content check system'. Sorry, i dont know how long it will take unfortunately. Are you able to still use mod in game or is it hidden there too?
~vicky.salazar92~ 16 Sep, 2024 @ 11:27am 
Hii, did you delete the b41 version of this mod? i cant load its page anymore :C
nnve  [author] 5 Mar, 2024 @ 6:20am 
Thank you. Are you sure that you are using the right version? This mod is specifically made for the old build 40 (before players and zeds animations update). But in the description you can also find the link to the latest game version as well.
Please let me know if that was the issue, or maybe something else is wrong.

This mod is a lifesaver, thumbs up! However, I've found its removed the ability to pick up and put down furniture..
