yes! thank youd MKMoose! your response plus the stuff from xXx_ape_xXx form the solution! in my case, there are 3 important details i needed to understand: 1) tapestries are not items, they are blocks! and 2) understanding attribute formatting, and 3) learning types for tapestries. here is the solution that worked for us. i lost the full set of 3 Ambush tapestries. the code to replace it is: /giveblock tapestry-north 1 [my_player_name] { type: 'ambush1' } where tapestry-north is the block (it could have been east, west, or south, but north was a fine default). 1 is the quantity. i replaced [my_player_name] with my ingame name so the admin could give the item to me without spawning it in to himself then delivering it to me. and 'ambush1' is the left portion of this 1x3 tapestry set. i also did the same code for 'ambush2' and 'ambush3' to complete the set. et-voila! quick note: the type formatting is NOT consistent! if the entire tapestry is 1xN wide or Nx1 tall, it just uses the tapestry name followed by a number. ie: rickbat1, rickbat2. if the tapestry is NxM as in a 2x2, then you need to use a grid. but the grids appear to be alphanumerically iterative by revision, so sometimes they require something special in the numbering. this might become more of an issue in the future as the alphas of the game progress. example: tempstorm is 2x2, so the types are tempstorm11 tempstrorm12 tempstorm21 tempstorm22 whereas the schematic tapestry is also 2x2, but the types are schematic-a11 schematic-a12 schematic-a21 schematic-a22 note the '-a' there at the end- i suppose this is the second version of this tapestry. if you just use the numbers without the '-a' it spawns an invalid item which can/does crash the game. i hope that this info is helpful to players in the future! thank you MKMoose for your help!

hi all. i play on a large pop vanilla mp server. we had a server desync today while i was moving some complete tapestry sets. the items vanished. we can see them in the .json item logs, then they are gone. we have very helpful admins who can help, IF i can figure out specific commands. tapestries do not appear in the creative mode item menu. my question: how do i /giveitem a tapestry? xXx_ape_xXx has a great solution in the linked thread. but it is not working for me so far. tapestries appear to be unusual items? i ran around in a SP game in creative mode and found some tapestries to analyze. from those, i pulled some code. here is what i am trying as an example: /giveitem tapestry-north{"type": "tempstorm-11"} 1 p[] but no luck- it says error in argument- no such item exists. if anyone can help, i would appreciate it.

oh i see! this was my mistake. i missed 1 detail. here is the current process: 1) go to vintagestory.at 2) purchase game 3) enter your name, address, payment info 4) you get a few emails. one is a receipt for the game. 6) click the other email and go through the email confirmation to validate your FORUM ACCOUNT. 7) you will get a couple more emails. you dont need to look at these now. 8 ) then click the other ORIGINAL EMAIL to create a NEW SECOND ACCOUNT for the CLIENT AREA. this is a separate other website. 9) enter your name, email, a new password, etc. create the new client area account. the client area is the other website where you download the game from. 10) in the end, you should have about 10 emails and about 10 web tabs open. dont get overwhelmed by the process. just make sure to follow the steps. it all makes sense in hindsight. that is all! you should be good to go. when i went through the process i ended up with 10 tabs from all the different pages. and i clicked on the wrong tab from the third email for the second account, then i got lost in an endless loop trying to log into the second account with the first password. that was my mistake. thanks for your time all. i hope that this info is helpful to someone in the future. i love the game, i love the devs, ans i love the community. keep up the good work all! =D

hi all. it is currently noon on sun aug 24 2025. i purchased vintage story directly on the vintagestory.at website about 30 min ago. i have confirmed my account and everything appears to be in order. i would now like to download and install the game. it is my understanding that i need to click on the CLIENT AREA and log in a second time to do so. the second login screen at the CLIENT AREA menu does not accept my login. i assume there would be some delay as the databases sync for my new account. but i am starting to wonder if something else might be wrong? 30+ minutes seems like a bit much. i have tried multiple browsers- firefox, chrome, and ms edge. cookies are enabled, and i have tried both saved automated login and manual login. nothing seems to work. is the download site down? does the server need to be restarted? is this just normal and i need to wait longer? thank you for any feedback. hugs!
