Cannot Craft Ferozium

Out of curiosity, Have you constructed all the lower tiers of armor and built some items from the lower materials?

I know that there are some items that when you craft them you are able to create a higher level version of it. Best example i can think of this is the Iron/Silver/Gold armor sets that you can craft in the alpha sector.

Maybe everyone else has crafted something that you have not yet crafted just by coincidence and we have not seen this bug because of it.. ?

Just thought after posting that it could be something to do with level of planet you are currently on, Maybe the planet level is not higher enough, dis-allowing you to gain the recipe. Like a limiter for when the game is fully released or something ?.. Try traveling to different planets also..

TL: DR... Try crafting random lower level items, Might unlock it somehow, Visit different level planets.

 

As far as I understand in the code, this should not be an issue. I don't know coding thio, so it's a very valid point

 

He could add it to the starter recipes, but if the problem is there then he can probably fix it anyway. Also, these item recipes can be ;earned on an existing character by using the item again, so, I find it more preferable to put recipes there for testing.

He's already stated that he can see the Ferozium furniture, so it seems to be a problem with the bar itself. If it's just a simple matter of case-sensitivity, it's an easy fix.

 

But if it's a case sensitive thing, then wouldn't everyone not be able to create the ferozium bar, see'ing as the code would be the same for everyone?

 

It could just be a small problem with the game updating on certain systems, or something more devious, I'm just fishing for simple solutions

 

Code:

{
  "itemName" : "Feroziumbar",
  "rarity" : "Common",
  "inventoryIcon" : "Feroziumbar.png",
  "description" : "It's a Ferozium bar.",
  "shortdescription" : "Ferozium Bar"
}

Don't think the case sensitivity is the issue.

EDIT: not in my files anyway

 

Yeah, the whole case sensitivity thing or even a misspelling were based on the potential that his files could be different to mine.

Edit: I'm afraid I can't hang around, It's 3:18 or so here in Australia and I'm tired
If you need to, just move the line { "item" : "Feroziumbar" } in the player.config up into the previous tier's tech unlocks, keeping an eye on the commas (all but the last entry between the [ ] should have a comma, so it's lke this:

Code:

 "level" : [
   {stuff},
   {stuff},
   {stuff}
 ]

 

Fair enough.
Go to steam\steamapps\common\starbound\assets and there should be a file named player.config right click it and choose the "edit" option
Scroll down and under level33 there is a line that says something along the lines of

Code:

{ "item" : "Feroziumbar" },

Second, go to steam\steamapps\common\starbound\assets\items\generic\crafting and do the steps above for the file Feroziumbar.item
If the itemName in the second file is not identical to the one in the first file you might have a problem.
you should also look in the file Feroziumbar.recipe located in Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\assets\recipes\level33

 

what he said earlier didn't helpp. i found a old forum post about how to change recipes. i used that and changed the way it see's weapons, armor, etc. so now i wont have to worry. but yes, i never got it to work. i tried everything. no luck. no way to craft the bars from a metalworking station :/ i managed to change the codes and i can get the armors now but i FEEL LIKE I CHEATED :/ but either way, it worked. thanks for the help guys, and to the gas posters.. stop that stuff! ofc wer'e gonna be frustrated when a tier of weapons/armor that we must have to go to X doesn't actually allow us to make the bars necessary. that was the issue here, nothing else. in the future guys (not dh or the.. other guy (oh i cant see his name while i edit this but he's awesome!) if someone asks a question stay on topic! thats a very bad way to frustrate an already frustrated player, and then to act as if the fact that i was angry is a bad thing.. well what do you expect? people get frustrated, and when they need help, they dont need people to troll them. if i post another thread, and someone starts to troll again, i'll start reporting people, like i did that one guy

TLR: Please dont troll people when they are obvoiusly frustrated (again, not dh or that other guy (i'm sorry i cannot see his name while i edit this :/ i'll probably reedit it later and put his name in, i'm so thankful he helped ) if i see anyone doing that on this forum, you can be assured i will report you for it. this is a beta, bugs are expected and we gotta communicate the bugs TO the guys making the game so they can fix them, NOT TROLLS, lol. just food for thought.

 

but it's working now?

 

well, sorta. i 'edited' my recipes so i could get the actual armor/weapons in question but i feel like i cheated to do it :/ but yes i can actuall go up now.. but i had to change things to do it :/

thats the problem: i coulda just changed everything to take coal ore, lol. i've looked and looked for a actual fix for this, sometimes people clicking the item twice (the upgrades) works, but it didn't work for me, so i did as Platoonsgt1 suggested (thanks buy the way dude, so helpful!) and changed the recipes. of corse doing that means i'm not legit.... how do i report this bug, or has it already been reported? i would hate for anyone else to go thru what i did.


ok to summarize:
i had a problem with getting the aegisalt upgrade which lets you make ferozium bars. this caused me not to be able to make the bars, which were made with aegisalt and coal ore. to fix this problem i edited my recipes so that i could make the items in question using coal ore instead. just to test what was happening, i went ahead and edited the upgrade recipes so that i could se eif it continued to be the trend, and it was. in fact, everything above ferozium is broken, i cannot make anything because the recipes to make the bars do not appear in any craftable workstation. my alleviation for this was editing the recipes again to use coal instead.

basically everything ferozium and above broke as far as making the bars themselves. everything else showed up, aka the furnature, the wearpon/armor recipes, etc.

 

trilith, please stop feeding the trolls. Also, use Edit rather than making double and triple-posts. If you have issues with people, rather than threatening them that you will report them, just report them and move on.

 

sorry. i was pretty angry at the time at not being able to progress. also, i apologize for my posts, please bear in mind i was frustrated.

if you mean have i crafted them since i had this problem, no. i crafted them before the upgrade. i have crafted items since then. if i find a easier fix, i will post it here. thanks for all the help.

ok, here's what i found in google's Cache: hopefully this helps those who have this problem: a big THANK YOU to Xuhybrid for this

Note: you can use this system to actually change the type of ores that frozium items use, and it goes up and up. check the level 35+ recipe folders for those upgrades, i changed mine to coalore, but you can change yours to whatever

NOTE: This is considered cheating/modding.

There seems to be a problem with crafting the two alloys in the unfinished tiers. These start after Durasteel so if you've not gotten there yet, this fix is likely irrevelant for you. However...

Ferozium Tech Upgrade
In \Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\assets\recipes\level33, you should find "techupgrade34.recipe". Open the file with whatever editor you like, Notepad is sufficient.
Change: { "item" : "Feroziumbar", "count" : 40 }
To: { "item" : "coalore", "count" : 1 }

Violium Tech Upgrade
In \Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\assets\recipes\level35, you should find "techupgrade36.recipe". Open the file with whatever editor you like, Notepad is sufficient.
Change: { "item" : "Violiumbar", "count" : 40 }
To: { "item" : "coalore", "count" : 1 }

Doing this will allow you to skip over these tiers and unlock weapons for the next tier. Im assuming all of these weapons from 32, 33, 34 and so on are actually going to be stretched out to 45, 55, 65 and so on when the tiers are finished. This access we have now is just a quick, easy way to tier up even if the content is limited to 3/4 tiers at the moment.

the person to post this was named Xuhybrid. big thanks to him for this!

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IS CONSIDERED CHEATING ON SERVERS!

 

or you could try and make the recipes available from the start

 

Just as a matter of intrest, what code was in your copies of the three files I listed? Could you upload them, or put their contents into spoiler tags? (Spoiler tags are {spoiler} and {/spoiler} with square brackets, not braces)
So those files are player.config, Feroziumbar.recipe and Feroziumbar.item. I will probably check them for irregularities.

Also, you could try adding this to aegisaltbar.item:

Code:

  "learnBlueprintsOnPickup" : [
    "Feroziumbar"
  ]

So, when you pick up the Aegisalt bar, the recipe will unlock.

 

bloody brilliant dude, once again you make everyones life easier thanks for posting this.

 

Hello friend, download this file and place the folder ... starbound / assets
must resolve. Thank you!

http://www.4shared.com/rar/xBcZwodN/playerconfig_starbound.html?

 

if i may ask, what does this do exactly? i've looked at the file in question (to make sure it was just a config file, which it is, lol) but i dont understand what it does precisely any help would be appreciated.

 

place it in the folder (with game closed), and try again to upgrade to use ferozium

 

What does it do? Not how do you use it. I've already given him sufficient code for him to obtain Ferozium, by making the recipe appear when he picks up an Aegisalt bar.
