It's about time, right? 😅

🪷 Patrons:  you should have the most up-to-date files with the downloads folder so you can ignore this post unless you're interested in reviewing the changelog info.

This update brings a lot of changes to my files. If you use any of my recipes there's a chance that it will trigger an error because the game is looking for something that has been moved or changed so you may need to update your save. Follow the instructions below to avoid and/or troubleshoot issues:

🚨 Please read and follow my Installation & Updates post to install these updated files.

🚨 If your save won't load after installing, see the Save or Lot Won't Load instructions on how to fix it.

🚨 If you are triggering an LE or have some other issue after installing see the Troubleshooting Issues post.

You'll find the Changelog in its entirety HERE, which includes links to download pages for all updated content.

New Scripts:

This is my first time creating brand new scripts and they've been tested so far without issue, but if you have any problems with them, let me know. I don't go out of my way to track or integrate with other creator's mods, but please report if you come across any game-breaking conflicts so I can address them.

I don't know if you're aware of this, but clicking the "Download" button on the Tea Curing, Coffee Drying, Butter, White Vinegar, Cured Olives, and Dried Apricots doesn't lead you to the downloads for those items.

BrazenLotus

Yes, that's because they are broken and still need to be updated.

Kris

Oh, okay! I was just confused because the posts said the last update was 12/16/23 so I didn't know if it was some sort of glitch or something, that's why I commented what I did.

BrazenLotus

I'll fix that, thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Aquiela

The Preserving Shelf completely disappeared from my game after installing all the recent mod updates.

Aquiela

The liquid press and milling appliance don’t work either. I also don’t see the cheese wheel menu on the cheese press

BrazenLotus

That's because preserving still needs an update and is not available.

BrazenLotus

Make sure you have all required files installed. See the pinned post at the top of this page for links to that info.

2026-09-06 05:00 Are these changes pushed to Curseforge or only through here?

BrazenLotus

Yes. Anything on Curseforge should be the same version as what's available here but if something looks old let me know. It's not easy finding and updating content over there so I may have missed something.

Shayla

has anyone been able to touch their woodworking table?

BrazenLotus

Please review the instructions in the 'Install & Troubleshoot' section of the Collections section above. If you used the downloads folder also be sure to review the instructions in the 'Patreon Info' section for the Downloads Folder.

LightsMeAction

Hi! it appears I am missing the perserving rack, is it included in the crafting core mod or something seperate?

Curtis O'Day

2026-09-06 05:00 I may be missing something but I just paid for a membership. However, I cannot access the cookbook. Do I need to upgrade my membership in order to access the cookbook? Or do I not need to cookbook to use the foods?

You need the cookbook to cook recipes - it comes with the the Core Food & Drinks file - check out the download page on my site for details. You can also check out the info at the following link to get an idea of which files you need to use which type of content: https://www.patreon.com/posts/about-my-content-94137914
