Anyone knows where I can get flint? Thanks!! plz...thanks, I really can't figure out how to cook meat.

[Varg]

Yep. Mine the gravel.
...and maybe Minecraft got it from reality (kinda)? Soooo... maybe that's why this game does it also?
Or maybe flint should be found in trees? :p

Head for the river. It is usually near there.

To be a bit more specific: small patches of gravel generate wherever sand is near water. You also get larger gravel patches scattered throughout the map like the ore blocks are. Gravel is the dark-grey block with whitish flecks in it, but the flint itself looks more like a bar of metal.

The cnace for gravel to drop flint isn't very high, but it shouldn't be hard to get some if you find a patch (make sure you don't dig into water though). If you get really terrible luck mining gravel, the materials merchant also sells gravel... although since gravel is only used for cooking fires (of course some mods might use it for other things...), it's generally easier to skip the gravel and buy/find iron to make ovens with.

Just make your kitchen or cooking fire, and tell the villagers that you want a certain amount of cooked meat (such as chicken). They will do the cooking if the recipe items are stocked.

If you have a map with a large lake in the middle, check there. For large deposits, check in the first two or three dungeon layers that have any bodies of water in them. Usually you can find some gravel, the more permanent solution however, is to mine iron and build ovens.
