When I was using WeMod a week ago, there was an option that removes crafting requirements, which applies to Loom Upgrades and Trait Weaving to gears.
After the WeMod itself was updated a few days ago, this option seems to be missing now. I checked back the older Mod Versions but none of them have the option. I'm quite confused honestly, I even just enabled every option just in case if I'm seriously being blind but I still can't apply Loom Upgrades 😦
