running TFC 0.79.13 with OptiFine_1.7.10_HD_U_A4 with Forge-1.7.10-10.13.2.1230 and it works "fine" had the see-through problem with Forge-1.7.10-10.13.2.1236 but I could run the latest version of TFC (0.79.13) with optifine with forge 1230.

your idea DOESN'T support personal tastes at all... you might think that steak and potatoes is compatible since you like it, but not everyone like right? what if a person form some country never tasted steak and potatoes , and therefore never knew that they are compatible, so to him it's just like the same current system. a slot machine. and therefore it's impossible to make fixed compatible food types that everyone would know, but everyone have tasted the 5 different tastes, an there for knows that sweet taste good to him (for most people)

ok after giving this some thoughts i'm gonna sum up some of the ideas that where suggested here with some of my own... ok first: 5 types of taste scores : sweet, bitter, sour, salty, umami each food type have a range of the five taste scores.... (for example an orange would have a range of 40%-70% sour and a range of 20%-60% sweet with the other tastes as 0% so if a random orange is 70% sour and 20% sweet it is too sour and if it was 40% sour and 60% sweet it will be too sweet) so when make a meal the sum of the different taste scores (multiplied be the different amounts of food) will be the final taste score of the meal (for example a meal of 90%-100% sweet and 30%-50% for the result would be too sweet and unpleasant, a meal of 70%-80% sour and sweet with the rest as 30%-50% it will result in a pleasant sour & sweet taste) the taste score of the meal (pleasant or unpleasant) will affect the amount of how much it fills your hunger meter the creation of meal will reduce the amount of nutrients the food gives you the higher you cooking skill is the lesser the amount of nutrients is reduced when you reach a high enough cooking skill you start getting more nutrients from a meal than of the food second.... nutrients instead of the (protein, fruit, vegetable, grain, dairy) it should be (Carbohydrates, Protein, Fat, Vitamins, Minerals) each food type have a range of each of the five different nutrients the meal's nutrients is the sum of all the nutrients of the different food types minus the variable which is determined by your cooking skill Carbohydrates would affect your Stamina (if you are planning to add it) the higher the carbohydrate the higher your stamina Protein would affect your regeneration the higher the protein the better the regeneration Fat would affect our stamina and our walking/sprinting speed the higher the fat the lower the stamina and the slower we are

well yeah but that doesn't quite fit... since you didn't just *try* to but sand and flux and water and you suddenly got mortar... and then you just magically knew that if you put it with bricks you get stonebricks ! yes it's how they did it in the old times but now you don't go and just try all the different combinations of all the different materials do you? no, you rely on your current knowledge, but the current meal system... you are enforced to not use your knowledge entirely but you rather flipping a coin with 685.795 faces... !

yeah as in names like for example a hickory wood is different than a kapok wood hickory burns better, it's "dark" colored... kapok is pink ... which makes a meaning to collecting different types of wood but collecting different types of crops is practically meaningless cause an orange isn't different than an apple it's just diversions and to add more combinations into meals i won't bother making meals if it frustrates me so having an apple or an orange doesn't really matter... but if you say for example an orange gives a sour taste and an apple gives a sweat taste and that affects the meal then there would be a difference between them , there would be a point in looking for them in the wildness

to say the truth i don't mind working hard for something... but i hate frustration... putting different ingredients for hope of finding something is not a "new experience" is frustration i made tons of meals of all food types and i couldn't get a taste score of or above 0.1 which was frustrating (also it's not that important it gives a sense of achievement) what i love about minecraft is that if you have enough wits and knowledge you hardly need to look at a wiki... (you can guess that if you shape stones like that you will get a sword for example) so blindly putting different stuff together just doesn't have that magical touch.... and it also makes the different types of food just meaningless ... it doesn't really matter as long as it's a vegetable right ?

i suggest making normal copplestone being affected by gravity like gravel is ... as it falls down but not into piles... that way you can make a starting house out of copplestone walls and some thatch as rooftops which would be quite legit as ome old house where made like this and also to add the "mortared cobblestone" as TomatoThief said cause i love the look of the cobblestone and i used in vanilla minecraft to make some sweat castles

ok first i want to thank everybody for this amazing mod... okay ... also i like the whole "realistic" feel to the mod and how you have to do stuff like you do in real life... but the cooking part feels like it's been lift out... i want to separate my idea into 2 section: first the basics : the idea of having the recipes seed related doesn't make any sense.... like i know that eggs and tomatoes and green pepper taste good in real life but then it tastes "terrible" with a 0.0 taste score !!! that doesn't make any sense... so instead of blindly putting stuff together in hopes of getting a higher score, we should but ingredients together that make sense to us in real life so you can implante a list of "recipes" with different scores.... and it does't have to be the bizarre recipes but just the basics like rice and tomatoes and potatoes for example ! this well not only make cooking a bit smarter but will also make a reason for traveling far and collecting different types of crops and fruits to make your favourite meal and also i hate the fact that a meal is limited to 4 types of foods with fixed amounts.... why can't we put 6 types? .. why not 8?.. why not 16 ? and why can't we add a certain kind of vegetables into a 4oz slot and one in the 2oz slot ? second... the advanced complexity: this is most probably already suggested but for the sack of a full suggestions and to also get this idea out of my head... we should be able to "cook" instead of making a salad.... we need heat , we need water, we need seasoning, salt.pepper and lastly i would like to suggest a few extra things adding cream for making dessert with berries and all. being able to drink milk?! butter... for making cookies cake ! (it's a lie) .... i'll add more when i remember more so again thanks for this great mod and sorry for the loooong post and the bad english
