There might be a simple answer to this: I’m new to terrafirmagreg and was confused about mining hammers, spades, and ore crushing. I’ve seen in videos and in this server that you can forge gregtech mining hammers on a tfc anvil, but for some reason I can’t seem to do it. It doesn’t show up in the plans. Also, I can’t mine ores with a regular hammer to get their crushed counterparts. Is there some config or something I need to be able to do this?

Are you trying to make metal tools on a stone anvil?
marble swan
Nope, bismuth bronze anvil
urban sierra
Can you show the anvil gui with an ingot inside?

Not atm, I play on a server my friend hosts and it’s down rn, but I can recreate it in single player so I’ll do that
Another thing worth noting is that spade heads and mining hammer heads have no anvil recipe in EMI for me.

What server core are you using?
marble swan
My friend hosts it through essential

That might be the problem but I can't guarantee it

Yeah, we’ve had a couple crashes (namely we added TFC woodwork and sawing logs crashed the client that did it) but beyond that it’s worked fine
Dammit my computer’s updating
I’ll test in single player when it’s done

Ok so this might just be tfc not really being built for creative or being progression locked or something: none of the ores i melt go into the crucible during testing. They all just get to brilliant white and sit there. also i can't put a copper double ingot in the charcoal forge. I have checked EMI though, and the recipe is here in singleplayer, and assumedly i could make a mining hammer if everything else worked.
Im not sure how tfc integrates gregtech recipes, whatever it is maybe essential messes with it

Im using essential aswell and its working fine. Did you use the essential installer or just put the .jar into the mods folder?
Im using Curseforge as a Mod Library and just put the latest essential 1.20 version into my mods folder and its all working fine. Maybe try it out, if it helps

I did the same here, it might have been something on my friend’s end. I’ll check in with them later, see if we have it set up the same way.
Come to think of it, when I hosted my game, none of my other friends could join. It told them they had the wrong version of the mod pack (or maybe it was the version of something else, don’t remember) but told them their version was the exact same as mine.
We only hosted it on their end because we couldn’t fix that
I haven’t tested if I can crush ores with the regular hammer yet, I’ll do that when I can

Got everything figured out, turns out a ton of the gregtech-terrafirmacraft compatibility files were in a part of the mod pack I didn’t export to my friends when we added tfc weather to it. Unfortunately it screwed up world gen as well so we have to restart
