tried to cook and its not working. double click food,tried to find a frying pan(thought that might work) used stove,fire,and forge.....so is this a bug :?:
You need to use a cooking tool (skillet, etc) in order to use the cooking skill. It is activated by tools, much like other crafting skills (blacksmith, tailoring, etc). Using a proper cooking tool will prompt you the gump for cooking options, which will allow you to cook raw food.
I was asked to put list of item you should be able to cook.Directly out of the original UO book. To see if any of these things can be worked on. use------------------on------------to get-----------cook to make Flour(sack) water Dough Bread Dough Honey Sweet Dough Muffins Swt. dough Honey Cookie mix Pan of Cookies Dough Meat Meat Pie Pie Dough Fruit Fruit Pie Pie Swt. Dough Fruit Cake mix Cake Dough Vegs. Veg. Pie Pie And of course the usual items to cook is the meat(ribs,fish steaks,bird meat) You should also be able to pick fruit from trees and from the fields.
Cherie, The Renaissance expansion introduced a whole slew of changes to the crafting process. For Cooking, you need to have a skillet (note: there may be other cooking utensils that work, like tongs and smith hammer work the same for blacksmithing, but I am only a cook as far as making fish steaks) and a fire source (stove, forge, campfire, and heating stand, all work). You dbl click the cooking utensil, not the ingredient, and will then get a menu with all the cooking options that are available. Once you click the the item you wish to create, the system checks to see if you have the appropriate skill, ingredients, and heat source. If using a heating stand, make sure it is turned on. I always set it on the ground myself, but it might work inside your backpack, but I'm not sure. Bon Appétit
I looked up the timeframe of GM Chef items bearing maker's marks and found that it was scheduled to happen in Publish 14. http://uo.stratics.com/uohoc/logs/2001-11-02-pub.shtml
I'd just like to point out that Cherie was asking the same question that I am; where do I find the cooking utensils? I am guessing that when Cherie says "Tried to find a frying pan", it means she was unable to find the utensils required for cooking. I personally have been to three cities so far and cannot find a cooking utensil. Went to the baker, innkeeper, provision-er, tinkerer, farmer, nobody seems to have one Anybody know? ~D EDIT: Looks like, according to another thread, that I need to find a cook. Where do I find a cook?
There is a bakery behind the healer in brit. Also, the tavern to the south of the west brit bank has a cook npc that will sell you what you need!
Np! I invite you to take a look at the Cooking Relevency Brainstorming Session post. Lots of "History Perfected" - themed good stuff going on there viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1754
