So I have some renamed diamond blocks and they can't be crafted down to regular diamonds. Not too long ago I could do this, but now I can't. I also heard that you can't craft anything with a renamed item. Can we fix this? Did Aikar change this due to people using promo items to craft different items?
Aikar said he will get to this eventually, but according to him it is a large fix. From what I know it has to do with the ability to craft dragon stones. The changes to the crafting system caused it. Hopefully aikar will fix it soon. Getting impatient.
Not really announced, but some players (like me ) had asked Aikar about it. @Aikar if you read this: Villager trading still works for renamed items.... So maybe making a custom villager or two with trades for iron => iron, gold => gold, diamond => diamond etc. with common items could be a viable workaround until the crafting system can be fixed.
