It is rather easy to add a custom item into the Alpha which will be craftable by the carpenter (as it is the only profession in the game at the moment). Get prepared: Unzip the “stonehearth.smod”-file Create a .png-file which represents the look of your item in the crafting UI Create a .qb-file w…

[image] Miturion: I tried to add a different category, but game crashed. Did you found out what you need for that? @Miturion do you mean a category in the crafting UI, just like “Construction & Furnishings”? For this you just need to edit the recipes.json-file in the professions-folder (carpe…

great, yea that was what I was trying. Maybe also some bracket or something or the fact that I had it in 2 categories at the same time. :expressionless: btw @voxel_pirate .

@Miturion I need to get into the topic first. I know there are some activities going in the Stonehearth Guru community… but did not look into the details yet.

What program do you use to create your icon images?
