I have tried to add a recipe to Make It and failed miserably, so Gouru suggested I come here to all of you for help ...


What I need is instructions on how to make (or add) a recipe for Wrapped Deadly Arrowheads. Yes, just the plain old garden variety heads - I use them to make barbed heads for my archers. This recipe is not in the program, and I can't seem to get it done properly. If one of you could provide assistance, I'd be most grateful

Just taking a guess, but I dont think I am far off with this. At least it is a start.


Under " <Category name="Deadly Arrowheads"> ", insert this:


<Recipe name="Wrapped Bundle of Greater Arrowheads" list="Wrap. Great Plain" use="Concentrated Bloodseeker Oil" on="Wrapped Bundle of Arrowheads" skill="Fletching" diff="??" burden="??" resttype="??" restore="??" cost="??" desc="??" verified="??"/>

<Recipe name="Wrapped Bundle of Deadly Arrowheads" list="Wrap. Deadly Plain" use="Concentrated Bloodhunter Oil" on="Wrapped Bundle of Greater Arrowheads" skill="Fletching" diff="??" burden="??" resttype="??" restore="??" cost="??" desc="??" verified="??"/>


Of course, before you insert this in, make a backup copy of your Recipe file in case you need to restore it (I am constantly backing mine up just in case). Let us know if it works.

Deadlys are a step proess in make it if your starting with the raw components.


Basic recipes can be found here:

You will have to back track to the Infusion* then make oils then make greater arowheads then turn them into deadlys.

I hate to sound... lazy... but does anyone have the edited recipe files with all the formulas currently hosted someplace I could download them?

ROFL

I don't do recipes...

Yet you want all product support punted over to Decal boards?


Recipes would be included... spell profiles for Einstein, tracking info for FindIt ...


If its not... then don't yell at people for discussing it on VN. Unless you just like yelling, which I can relate to.

I haven't seen him hollering, just stating that if you are having an issue with a plugin then ask on the correct support forums. Trying to develope a custom recipe is not having support issues with a plugin.

To be honest Maddy, this should not be considered a custom recipe ... as there is a barbed fletching tool ingame which only works with the plain arrowheads (I've tried it on others and it won't work LOL). This was a recipe that was in RoboChef, and I just wanted to have it in Make It! too, as Yew has been very busy RL and has not had time to prepare Robo for the new Decal. I routinely make up barbed heads in both Greaters and Deadlies. My archers using deadly heads use them all the time, and they are a nice starter head for a beginning archer (and a heck of a lot less expensive!!!).


And Gouru told me ingame, so unfortunately I cannot make your day by pointing out a post. I appreciated his quick reply to my tell of "hi", and he was most gracious with his response.


I'll be playing with the recipe today and see if I can make it work ... I'll let you know as soon as I've toyed with it

Thank you for the start ... however, a couple changes need to be made ....


The first recipe, for Wrapped Greater Arrowheads, needs to go under the <Category name="Arrowheads"> while the SECOND recipe, for Wrapped Deadly Arrowheads, needs to go under <Category name="Deadly Arrowheads"> That way, all the Greater wrapped arrowhead recipes are together (I know I know, small thing, but VERY helpful to people just getting started using the program).


I thank you kindly for the recipe, I made the wrapped deadly arrowheads without difficulty ... my archers will be smiling (if the toons could smile, that is!!!).
