modmaker could in fact be the problem here. before using modmaker, make the vanilla edits and then test the change(s) If they work prior to making the mod, then modmaker has made a mistake. One notable thing that modmaker always gets wrong is the positioning of entries in a "......bytype". It simply doesn't account for the "move" that is often a requirement. https://wiki.vintagestory.at/Modding:JSON_Patching#Move_operation

Spawning mushroom
Spear and Fang replied to Dong Dong's topic in Mod Development Questions/Troubleshooting
you can grab them from creative inventory and place them on a tree. to place them you probably need to shift-right click (or crouch click) if you don't see them in the creative menu you can "expose" them by changing this line to creativeinventory: { "general": ["*-north"], "flora": ["*-north"] }, or even creativeinventory: { "general": ["*"], "flora": ["*"] }, I placed these mushrooms like this -
Creating Custom Cabinets
Spear and Fang replied to jun1per's topic in Mod Development Questions/Troubleshooting
I am not familiar with the new recipes, but your wildcard assessment seems about right. I suppose I'd temporarally edit OR json patch the cabinet block file itself with your new wood type to see if that is all you need. Not sure about domain though. EDIT: Also seems like I'm missing something else here - not sure if it's related to the new tags system, or it's hardcoded, or what...likely your wood type must exist in assets\survival\blocktypes\wood\woodtyped\planks.json. And then there's assets\survival\itemtypes\utility\cabinetdoor.json -
This has been discussed with the VS team and I don't think it will ever happen. iirc the decision made was that the modDB is for public mods only and anything else either needs to be in Server Tweaks or distributed via some other means.

Barrel Block Swap - Pre 1.19
Spear and Fang replied to EIDOLON-M74's topic in Mod Development Questions/Troubleshooting
probably like this is best. it's what I'd call a theme pack. By creating a "game" folder in your mod, you can put assets inside of it (in a folder structure that mimics the game's folder structures) to directly overwrite vanilla assets at runtime. In this case, I'm stomping over the barrel and related shapes with ones from an older version of the game. Lightly tested in VS 1.22. Should work with any version of the game I imagine. oldbarrel.zip -

While you may in fact be experiencing a mod related memory leak, keep in mind that by its very nature this game wants to use a LOT of ram, and more so when using mods. This game is written in C#/.NET and the longer you play a single session, the more ram it tends to use. C#/.NET memory usage is elastic — it grows to meet demand and may not shrink immediately, but that’s by design for performance. High “used” memory in Task Manager doesn’t necessarily mean a memory leak. A few simple ways to mitigate this, in order of importance: 1. Never exit to the main menu and then immediately load into a world again. If you exit to the main menu, exit the game completely. 2. Exit the game completely after x number of hours of gameplay. Some people say 3, but it depends entirely on personal experience. 3. Do not run any other applications while playing the game, and ensure that external startup apps (i.e. 3rd party antivirus software) are not running in the background. (not directly related to your issue, but these apps can "muddy the waters" so to speak). 4. Ensure Settings - Graphics - Optimize RAM is set to "Aggressively...". Warning: this change will probably impact performance. Anecdotally while playing game version 1.22 (lightly modded) I noticed that changing the view distance frequently in order to map more of my world seemed to cause a memory leak of sorts, or at least greatly increased memory usage. And lag. I believe that this was entirely related to the vanilla game and exiting the game completely and reloading cleared this up completely. Having said that, please consider disabling any "map" related mods to see if things improve for you. Shader type mods often use a lot of memory and are easy to disable, so also worth your consideration. This game is constantly being updated and the focus is often performance related. The trade-off for high performance is often high memory usage. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

Fair enough. I just thought I'd point that out, because I've found the moderation team to be fair and reasonable. I like Billy a lot but he brought this on himself.

no animals were harmed Primitive Survival
Spear and Fang replied to Spear and Fang's topic in Mod Releases
no. but that is the case with water in vanilla, so the same applies here. -
Same, but I feel obligated to keep updating it. And yes, my worms are still edible.

VS model crashing
Spear and Fang replied to swordman's topic in Mod Development Questions/Troubleshooting
if the file you are trying to open is not in a folder called "shapes", it probably isn't a model and will error out. -
HELP game keeps crashing when joining multiplayer server
Spear and Fang replied to xanh's topic in Using Mods Troubleshooting
hmm the timestamps on those logs don't seem to line up with the crash log you originally posted 2/27/2026 8:34:29 PM: Critical error occurred -
HELP game keeps crashing when joining multiplayer server
Spear and Fang replied to xanh's topic in Using Mods Troubleshooting
Not much to go on here other than this: RegenMipMaps_Patch0 This tells us that the problem is with a mod that is harmony patching RegenMipMaps Searching github, the only one I can find is Player Model Lib vsmod_PlayerModelLib/source/Patches/OtherPatches.cs at bb33d30abf18d731a9a09ca9af74ae4af32422de · maltiez2/vsmod_PlayerModelLib So if you are using that mod - this one Player Model lib - Vintage Story Mod DB I would make certain it is the latest correct version for your game version 1.10.11 It may also be a mod the depends on Player Model Lib - see "Some mods that use this library" on that mods page. Otherwise, posting your server-main.log file and client-main.log file might provide more clues - those two files are often much more useful than the crash log. -
New Squeezable collectible behavior
Spear and Fang replied to Moderate Hilarity's topic in [Legacy] Mods & Mod Development
I think the first thing I'd try would be changing the squeezeTime to 2.0, like vanilla has it. C# can be a little finicky about integers vs floats. https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/master/CollectibleBehavior/BehaviorSqueezable.cs#L13 -
not sure, but it was intentionally restricted to prevent people from posting logs in the comments section. Many people just use like pastebin, and then post a link to that in the comments section. Better yet and even more common is to use Discord for such things. Many logs get posted there, either via DM or just in the the modding channels of the official VS Discord.

Your new ingot is probably not getting past this line of code, and maybe others. Seems to me the forge is somewhat hardcoded. https://github.com/anegostudios/vssurvivalmod/blob/20fcf08a18091c735c04845e110dbec7b665d572/Block/BlockForge.cs#L36 You could try changing your "code" to "ingot-small" may or may not work otherwise, your code might have to be "ingot", and your first variant "small" in any case, after making a change that dramatic, be sure and start a new world to test
