Did you pick up and move the stone? I hear a lot of people have trouble if they move it. Your right-clicking correct.

There does appear to be a problem if you use a stone block ( encountered this) ..for me it would only to work with quartzite block

[Serkas 14]

Its important that you click the top of the stone block with the hammer, not any sides.

For me it worked fine with a moved block next to my forge.

works for me as well as soon as I realized I had to make sure I clicked the top and not the sides. I think I read it also has to be a native stone of the area.

Nope. (did at first XD) but i now keep trying to dig down and do it with my thaing of Tin and nope D:

Maybe you could post an image of your anvil setup so we can see what your using?

I use shist by the way.

Oh now the anvil is working but now i can't bend eneything :/ i use the hammer the liquid tin and a plan

[Salvatos 10]

You can't shape a liquid. You have to wait till it solidifies into a malleable substance.

So wait for it to not become a liquid and then you have some time to work it.

Tin's temperature scale:

Also you can't use the plan until you have an ingot.

You work the ore to get an ingot, then with the plan you hammer out the desired material.

The stone anvil is indeed bugged. It simply won't work sometimes

Thank you so much.

WHY DID NOBODY EXPLAIN THIS ON THE WIKI!!!!!

This is nonsense.

[RogueHydra 32]

It does say it in the wiki. I actually read it in the wiki myself a few days ago.

[Salvatos 10]

Thank you so much.

Nonsense?

Seems pretty logical that in order to hammer out metal, you'd have to hammer it against the surface of the stone.

You'd have to be pretty damn skilled to successful make anything of use, when hammering it against the side of a a stone (i.e. a wall).

But as long as you've got it working now, that's all that matters.

I've found that restarting the mc client usually fixes the stone anvil not working bug. Ive encountered it a few times where no matter what you do it just wont work. Ive also fixed it once by moving to a neighboring biome.

Yes indeed, relogging fixes it but watch out for the bloomery bug! It looses all the output -only the output, not the ore the charcoal or the content of the mold slot-

[RogueHydra 32]

Re logging doesn't seem to want to fix my problem of not being able to load my forge : I did run across the issue of the anvil not working after a while but reloading the game made ti work just fine.

[Deathbytac0 46]

This may be solved but I fixed the vagueness on my update of the getting started guide. It now says you must find a raw igneous stone... keep looking... hit the top with the hammer... this is a bit buggy keep trying. You can check it out. Make sure to tell me of problems.

[zuupcat 0]

Does the stone need to stand alone or is a continous, plain surface okay too? I click on the top surface but nothing happens at all

[zuupcat 0]

Nevermind. Clicking a random surface worked in the end. It sure is still rather buggy.

[Arthur_Dent 36]

I've solved this problem by closing the client completely and restarting. Works 90% of the time

I believe the issue is this, from the changelog:

When creating a stone anvil, the gui will now automatically open. Note that the anvil can only be made if the player uses the hammer on a piece of stone that actually belongs in that location. i.e. Using your hammer on a piece of raw basalt while standing in a layer of chert will not work. You must use it on the chert instead.

EDIT: I take it back. This is definitely a bug, which I experienced earlier, and seems to be fixed by quitting MC and relaunching - just saving/exiting won't be enough, you have close and relaunch the entire application.

How does one restart the entire application?

Save & Quit minecraft, close the game entirely and relaunch it. If you just log out of your game/server but don't close the minecraft game client, it won't be enough to fix the issue.
