Honestly dude, you made AMAZING job with all your UI mods, ALL OF THEM should be in Vanilla. I really hope Indie Stone will reach you and pay you to add your mods in Vanilla, because let's face it, we can ALL agree that the UI of the game is one of the worst aspect of it, and it need a BIG modern fresh upgrade since years. So they, and we NEED that in Vanilla. <3

@Praisethevillain Thank you for your feedback. I’ll consider replacing these icons when I have time in the future, but I’ll use icons that better match the game’s style instead of switching to text. I’ve always felt that PZ already has a lot of text, which can be unfriendly to new players. Using icons can help beginners quickly grasp things more easily, as people tend to process images faster than text when looking for information.

Do you have a version of this without the cutesy icons? I like the mod, but I'd rather have something more plain and informative to match the rest of the UI. Also I'm not a child.

Also, is "AI slop" the new buzzword or something? Seems like a lot of ignorant reactionaries love to scream that when they see anything remotely AI generated. It's really not that serious, guys. Generative AI is just a funny little tool. It's not going to go all Skynet on us, good lord lol.

Just want to leave a big THANK YOU. This makes cooking actually fun for me. Love all your other mods too! :er_heart:

stop crying about ai lol. if you are butthurt about it then make some icons for the dude ig. great mod
61-TON KILLDOZER 21 Jul @ 2:54pm 
REEEEEEE YOU USED AI!

Great mod. Personally I don't give a fuck if you used AI to generate icons. These entitled mfs expect modders that work for free to be expert game designers, coders, and artists all in one. Entitled mfs can make their own icons if it's that concerning to them.

Would probably use if it wasn't for the use of completely unnecessary Generative AI. If you needed icons, PZ has hundreds of sprites that could be used on their own, combined, or with simple edits. Soulless icons of inconsistent art styles made from stolen art and constructed by environment destroying monoliths does not leave a good taste in the mouth.

@PyroPiroco
i believe this mod was made to restore the old cooking method of build 41 because in 42 cooking is more strict and you need pasta or rice to make stews which made cooking a luxury that needs rare items and not a basic activity you do in early game
MikeyRyu 17 Jul @ 6:18am 
this works for Sapph's b42 cooking mod too right? just double checking!
bingley 14 Jul @ 11:44am 
Great mod, but you should make one for destroying for fuel too! That would make using antique stoves/campfires a lot less annoying when it comes to fuel
PyroPiroco 13 Jul @ 6:03am 
Any plans for release for build 41? 🥹

AI就是新时代的产物,未来的动向,用AI做模组完全没问题,完全支持!!!:spiffo:

@mel 傻逼玩意爱用不用,就用AI就用AI,气死你个傻逼,不挣钱的免费MOD用AI咋了?非得要所有人即会写代码又会做美工?你这么牛逼你来做一个?什么?看不懂?自己滚去AI翻译去!什么?你也用AI翻译?哦!上帝,你违背了你的誓言,你竟然也用AI!:steamhappy:

Seems like ingredients dump doesn't return ingredients.
ibewdave 10 Jul @ 7:56am 
@mel...dam big guy, show some respect for the time and effort the mod creator has put in to this great mod.
1..its just a game
2..mod is free for every one
3..make your own ducking mod if you dont like this one
4..why do you care what the modder uses to make free content.?
5..dont like...dont use..simple right?
6..have a great day
CarltoN. 9 Jul @ 6:07pm 
@sungod you literally just need to have tried cooking in vanilla pz to see that this is a complete overhaul to cooking in the game. rather than being in the right click menu, all food prep is brought into a cooking ui made by the modder that makes cooking not just significantly easier but also more info on what the things you're making will provide for your character nutrition wise before you make them. you can add multiple ingredients and create an item with 1 click that would otherwise have taken half a dozen clicks in vanilla. you can also search to cook different things by recipe

@mel correct me if im wrong but im pretty sure the icons tell you what they represent when you mouse over them. and please remember that this and all mods for pz are completely free content when they've taken the developer dozens maybe hundreds of hours to design and code so maybe give them a fuckin break if they used ai to help in some areas.
SunGod 9 Jul @ 6:04am 
Maybe it's just too early in the morning and my coffee hasn't kicked in, but... I think this mod's description needs a quick 1-2 lines that explains what the heck it does. It's honestly not clear. When I'm going through looking at new mods (and haven't heard about it from a YouTube review), I rely HEAVILY on the quick TLDR at the top of a mod description to get an idea what it does. Suggest tweaking for this one, as I'm guessing it helps me cook more easily?
mel 8 Jul @ 11:37am 
the icons for this mod are terrible and extremely unclear. what on earth is "Pizza holding a magnifying glass" supposed to mean?? what is crying bread?? what is bored ham??? ah yes this dish gives me 16 bacon points and 22 egg points. quit using AI generated bs, plain text would be better than these confusing ass icons.
Midnight 7 Jul @ 9:25pm 
great mod,

mod author should totally call it Project Cookboid.
Nosta99 6 Jul @ 2:18pm 
wasted opportunity to call it project cookboid
Köygöçüren Mantarı 6 Jul @ 9:36am 
is this compatible with sapph's cooking?
hitnec 3 Jul @ 10:53am 
just wanted to add, this mod does a huge difference in making it more easy to cook :)

OMGitsJoemo 29 Jun @ 4:09am 
Do these mods only work for B42 or can I use them on older builds?
ivmakk 28 Jun @ 5:04am 
@Rocco, thnx for the mod, it’s one of my favorites! :cherrypie:

One missed feature for me is an ability to sort ingredients and seasonings. Typically, I'm looking for the most valuable ones for me in terms of specific nutrients, such as which ingredients will give me the most calories, fats, carbs, etc. It would be great if clicking on such an info icon in the left panel would perform such a sort.

In case it is too much to support with the current mod, I can try to build it on my own, which would use Project Cook as a required dependency and extend it a bit with such sorting functionality.
Claritas 26 Jun @ 7:29am 
:cozybethesda:💯!

Small suggestion if it can save last window location or make it pop-up to the side - It pops up in the middle, blocking your character. Neat Crafting already does this if I'm not mistaken.
SchrodingersGun 25 Jun @ 1:22am 
Damn good job, Indie stone should recruit you to the team
Medusa 🐍 24 Jun @ 6:07pm 
I just wanted a mod that brought back the B41 style cooking, but this is so, so much better! Both the functionality and the polished look of this mod are unparalleled! Seriously great work, best mod I've used in a long time, and there are a lot of good mods out there!

This mod made me unable to open cans and bottles with pickled stuff. Removing this fixed it.

The Flawless 14 Jun @ 7:45am 
if we can pick area like "animal farm" thing.and when we do someting its acts like kitchen we can see all food etc. like if I want to put salt from other counter I press it and game search nearest salt location pick it self and adds to recipe
Cyber_D 13 Jun @ 4:21am 
@Piedra Táctica, use right click on the ingredient. You'll see variants of what you have.
Piedra Táctica 12 Jun @ 3:51pm 
Does the mod also separate the meats I want to put in? For example, I have a chicken that fills 30 and another that fills 15, but I want to put in the 30 instead of the 15.

I'm using a translator to write, so if something isn't understood, I apologize in advance.
