Trying it out and it's pretty cool! I like that it's much less "click and throw money till you hopefully get the right one" and more skill based.

What I gather is that if you succeed in the minigame normally you just get a free random upgrade and then the Starred ones just get you the best (+4%) of one of the options?

Maybe, if I find the time

is compability with magic storage possible in the future?

I believe the hammer tool is described well in the description already. It says, "some items can be 'forged' rather than crafted to give more favourable initial prefixes.". When you craft a compatible item (a pickaxe, for example), you will even get a tooltip prompt indicating the feature. Keep in mind this doesn't support Magic Storage's crafting UI, which I realise is popular.

As Ivory mentioned, I also get terrible outcomes for reforges, which is fine since the minigame, as long as I don't fail, makes the reforge free.
But then I fail to see what the hammer tool does, that I bought from the tinkerer. I used it, it is gone. I can't seem to find any reason for purchasing it.

What this mod needs is a proper description here on the workshop page so basic functionality is explained.

@Ivory whats the name of the other mod

Correct

Hm, you said it may conflict with mods that modify reforge behavior, but mods that add new reforges should be unaffected, correct?

possibly, i have a mod that allows me to set weapons to one of their previous reforges, that might be the problem

Strange, the minigame normally selects good reforges when you succeed. There might be a mod conflict affecting the rates.

how does the minigame work??? i hit all three buttons in it and i still get a terrible reforge almost every time, and if i don't hit all three it doesn't reforge at all

this is so fucking sick, i love qte's!!!

There's no toggle for it to work, just press the reforge button. If you don't see the UI, it's possible you're using an incompatible mod

how i can use this mod, i dont know if i need to toggle something or something is missing in the UI
(using now mods that allow me to reforge armors and accesories, and calamity)

@Azrion The Many sorry for late reply but calamity does that to remove reforge rng

A bit of a UI overlap if using Off Hand Slot or Consistent Reforging, prob both. Reforged! moves the hammer icon to below the slot to make room for the minigame though due to this... Consistent Reforging's Undo Button overlaps the minigame. Consistent Reforging does have the option of moving the Undo Button to the bottom which sort lines up, but... it'll cover the "Cost" text.

If you have the Off-hand Slot, then the hammer icon will cover up the right side of it's icon, meaning you'll take out whatever item that's in that slot when you reforge things.

Wonder if some compact with those two mods can be done to avoid overlaps.

Thanks for checking. I'll see about getting a fix out

Incompatible with controllers

The reason why I’m asking is because some mods ui is incompatible with controllers

It's not tested for controller

Is this mod controller compatible?

Thanks for letting me know! I'll see what can be done about that

It's semi-incompatible with the Dialect mod framework.
Making weapons via forging works perfectly fine, but weapon reforging is just completely unavailable while the aforementioned mod is also enabled alongside this.

Holy shit!
This feels really close to the blacksmithing minigame in boktai 2!
I wouldn't be surprised if you got some inspiration from it, or even if you didn't, it's still incredibly awesome!

my man told us to play a mario party minigame to get legendary/unreal/mystic/i forgot

Do you have any mods that might be interfering with this?

hey. ive noticed a bug with this mod. ive not had issues with items never rolling certain perks, that has been good for me.. but seemingly anytime i reroll an item to godly it becomes a brick and can never be anything other than godly.. ive tried new goblin dudes and everything.. happened to a few pickaxes, melees and ranged weapons throughout me and my buddy's recent playthrough

That'd be awesome, thank you

Even though the repeat system isn't completely accurate, I'm surprised this still managed to happen. I'll look into improving that

This is great but I just had a horrible time trying to reforge ONE equipment for warding, I kept getting repeat prefixes over and over without failing the mini game until it got so fast it was impossible to keep up. Please add an option to completely prevent repeats

this is such a creative mod, but im too lazy :( good mod! download

This makes so much sense, it's unreal.

Thanks for reporting! I'll look into that

If I shift-click an item into the reforge slot with this mod active, the item I shift-click just disappears.

a unique.. minigame? MINIGAME? MINIGAMES!???? THIS IS ABSOLUTE PANDEMONIUM!!

Yes

does it work on multiplayer??

should try this out!

You aren't able to use the Forge Hammer's effect when crafting from an Interface

How does the Forge Hammer interact with Magic Storage? Are you still able to reforge it when crafting with a Crafting Interface, or will that method only use the default?

its fine.

It's not for 1.4.3, I'm afraid

also, if it isn't, don't bother trying to make it support 1.4.3, it'll be too hard, and I don't want to push you to do it.

Quick question, is this for 1.4.3? If not, I won't be too unhappy, the mod looks very nice and useful.

I'd appreciate that! I've attached the mod's source in the description

Can I make a Chinese localization for your mod?

Cool idea. I wish the UI was prettier

I can already hear the paper mario noises in my head.

After using the Forge Hammer upgrade sold by the Tinkerer, any item that can receive a prefix on craft will show "Right click to begin forging" in its tooltip in the crafting menu. Right-clicking will pick one of two minigames depending on the crafting station used (one requires you to click rapidly with a time limit, the other requires you to hold and release click with specific timing). If you fail the minigame, the crafted item will always have a negative prefix. If you succeed, it will always have a positive prefix.

It's not terribly useful, but it gives a bit more agency over your gear quality and, hopefully, the minigames are fun to play.

Can you explained this 'forged' mechanic I'm kinda confuse.
