@Izackl yeah, probably worth just waiting for b42 at this point tbh.

there's a few other items which don't work like grill pans too, but yeah.

I figured as much. I don't normally use Crafting Enhanced Core because of the workshop mod and now you Junk Metal mod but, if i wanted to use Yak's Makeshift Clothing mod i would have to use said Crafting Enhanced Core.

@xylr
It has different ID in the game - will update it the future (don't know when).

@SDgamer
Unfortunately 'Crafting Enhanced Core' is not supported.
SDgamer 31 May, 2024 @ 1:58pm 
does Crafting Enhanced Core screw with this mod?
xylr 31 May, 2024 @ 6:50am 
It seems Empty Beer Cans aren't scrap-able like pop cans and food cans.

In case of adding compatibility with other mods addon like 'Durable Scrap Spear' can be made.
You will need to create addon for JunkMetal that is compatible with 'zRe Better Lockpicking', 'Guns of 93' or any other mod.
I will not make any compatibility with other mods due to lack of time but you can. Use 'Durable Scrap Spear' as an example.

also could be done a patch for ammo for guns of 93?
aquelarrefox 15 Jan, 2024 @ 3:39pm 
the scrap crowbar, theres any easyway to make the mods zRe Better Lockpicking and Planetalgol's EVEN WORSE Looting (build 41) HARDCORE DIFFICULTY ONLY!!! take scrap crowbar as a normal crowbar in the tasks?

I can add it to the mod, but the next planned update for the mod is when Metalwork Overhaul goes live.
Francisco Jose 14 Jan, 2024 @ 9:09am 
@Bourne I'm pretty sure you're able to craft metal pipes as shown in the mod's pictures by finding the recipe. Still, this mod is more intended to do weapon and bullet crafting, so I would recommend you this mod for that:

Aww why can't we craft metal pipes with this mod? :( Metal pipes are needed for metal walls, would be awesome.

Bug reported and fixed :steamthumbsup:

@Kubolakuba
Check the progress bar and if it is stuck check logs for compatibility issues.

Can anyone help me to explain how to melt scrap ingots? I did put scrap metal into campfire, added fuel for more than 24h, lighted it, and it did not melt
Narcissakate0429 29 Mar, 2023 @ 6:39am 
melting the scrap metal to the campfire doesnt work
amagoi 9 Feb, 2023 @ 10:57pm 
It was a mystery that I couldn't use most of the recipes even though I had the Cairn and the ingredients, but it was because the welding mask was registered as a favorite.
LilYoshi 12 Jan, 2023 @ 8:36am 
The stone pile is the "Cairn" its in Carpentry-misq-Cairn
Klutz2020 13 Dec, 2022 @ 8:37am 
My scrap club always breaks after 1 hit is that normal?
The Eternal Crusader 21 Aug, 2022 @ 9:29am 
This mod looks great by any chance does it work for MP?
Philrick2 26 Jul, 2022 @ 4:40pm 
I am not able to find the recipe for the tongs or do we have to find them?
jswendsen 28 Jun, 2022 @ 5:28pm 
To create a stone pile, right click on the screen, go to Carpentry, then misc, the select cairn and place it. You need to forage for six regular, not chipped stones first. Best places to find stones are roads and urban areas.

To create ingots, build a campfire, toss on a log, add all the scrap metal uncooked, it will heat up just like food in the stove. Don't remove it when the red bar gets to the end, wait until ingots show up at the bottom of the list.

I have 3 stones, what should I do to make a stone pile? There is no recipe. If I just need to put them on the ground, then this does not work.
IZackI  [author] 12 Jun, 2022 @ 9:04am 
You have to build Stone Pile using stones.
lalahood 12 Jun, 2022 @ 7:29am 
Where i can find stone pile?
Impos! 25 Apr, 2022 @ 12:18pm 
Will the recipe magazines spawn into an already created world or do you have to start over?
KRITENKO97 16 Apr, 2022 @ 4:54am 
Add the receipt of threads and junk for fabrics from the fabric.
KRITENKO97 16 Apr, 2022 @ 3:29am 
Hello. Why is there no information about the manufacture of the ingot? Add it to the pictures.
Nappel 12 Apr, 2022 @ 11:26am 
how to craft the welding rods from the 5. picture ?
drknecro 15 Mar, 2022 @ 2:38pm 
After the author confirmed that it was working for him I started some troubleshooting, I think unsubscribing and resubscribing to the mod has corrected the issue, as when I got back in all 20 ingots were in the campfire. So as of 3-15-22 this is 100% working.
drknecro 15 Mar, 2022 @ 2:11pm 
I cooked the scrap ingots until they were complete in the campfire (I did 10 of them) then I selected to move them to my backpack. They vanished, then I waited till they were done and carried the mask and blowtorch etc. over to the fire and tried to make it from there but they vanished.
IZackI  [author] 15 Mar, 2022 @ 12:43pm 
Is the process of making Scrap Ingot complete? Maybe you are putting Ingots in to the backpack?
Just checked the process and it works fine at least for me. Can you provide more details please?
drknecro 15 Mar, 2022 @ 9:50am 
So, I just cooked some metal into ingots in the campfire to make tongs, but when I pick the ingots up they vanish, so I tried to make it directly from the campfire, it starts gathering the items but fails before it can make the tongs.... does anyone know how I can cheat in the tongs or something?
Bad_Karma 4 Feb, 2022 @ 5:59am 
Where can i find a Stone Pile ? Pls help me :D
maybe 23 Jan, 2022 @ 6:04pm 
oh nvm it just doesn't count unless i get enough materials
maybe 23 Jan, 2022 @ 5:58pm 
scrapping item gives me a 'uncooked' junk metal, so i can't make any item with it except consuming ingots. any way to solve it?
Bot_Elliot 16 Jan, 2022 @ 10:05am 
Yes, and I can scrap any part not broken.
IZackI  [author] 16 Jan, 2022 @ 9:42am 
Do you have Scrap Saw on your character?
Bot_Elliot 16 Jan, 2022 @ 9:16am 
Don't know why, but I can't scrap any (broken) part. I have a LOT of mods, anyone know if there is a incompatibility with some?
IZackI  [author] 9 Jan, 2022 @ 10:41am 
That is a translation error in the game. Build this:

@grey @IZackI I was wondering the same, what is a Stone Pile?, have not seen, found or been able to craft one....

By the way, excelent mod.
Grey 6 Jan, 2022 @ 1:39am 
scrap metal bat recipe requires a stone pile,
where to find it or how to create it?
TheomenyTangent 4 Jan, 2022 @ 11:13pm 
Thanks!
IZackI  [author] 3 Jan, 2022 @ 5:07am 
To make Scrap Ingot put Scap Metal to Campfire
TheomenyTangent 2 Jan, 2022 @ 3:56pm 
as far as i can tell, I cannot make scrap ingots, which are required by most recipes without the blacksmith skill, or have access to the crafting equipment (stone pile) required. I could be missing something though.
IZackI  [author] 2 Jan, 2022 @ 1:05am 
Mod uses Metalworking...
TheomenyTangent 2 Jan, 2022 @ 12:05am 
I think they removed blacksmith in the latest version... It breaks this mod. Could you update please?
IZackI  [author] 31 Dec, 2021 @ 3:45am 
That is intentional. Please check second image of the mod to view some of the recipes.
Whollyspokes 30 Dec, 2021 @ 3:42pm 
honestly dunno if this is unintentional or not but you use 2 scrap electronics to make a hacksaw
