@JeniJenfred Were you using her Ye Olde Cookbook? That one needs some major overhauling, although this would be the first I'd seen a severe report for it, not just LEs.
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising I used it, but i deleted it months ago. I even trief it just with grannies cookbook, but i have the same problem
@JeniJenfred Do you have the version that was updated February 12?
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising yes
@JeniJenfred She's cleared Grannies for the patch and there are no reports of it not working on her Patreon. I'd suggest heading over for support there. I'm happy to look at your most recent last exception file if the problem produced one, but I suspect you need creator support.
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising Yeah i know, its kinda weird. I wrote her on Modthesims but i didnt get an answer. I hope that we can find a solution. But thanks for helping <3 And no, i didnt get a LE
Here's a thought @JeniJenfred If you put the cookbook mod back in (download it fresh), can you open the lots to delete all the food and plates in them?
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising do you mean every lot or only the 3 that are having this issue?
@JeniJenfred I'm wondering if removing the cookbook hasn't blocked you from loading those lots because they had content made with it on them. (This applies to some cookbood mods.) Putting the mod back would then let you load the houses, if that was the cause of loading being blocked. Deleting the plates and food after that would let you remove the mod safely.
Test it on the three @JeniJenfred , to see if putting the mod back in Mods lets you get in.
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising i will try it
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising no, it didnt work

@luthienrisingIt's a strange thing anyway. Sometimes it works in a new save & sometimes it doesn't. Now it works again, for example. But last time it was the case that as soon as I played longer, I couldn't travel to the lots again. I also have the ultimate save file from plumbob kingdom. However, I've had it for over a year and I've never had any problems. I've the problems for a few months now
@JeniJenfred Is this someone else's save file you're having issues in? Now and then those have issues that are really hard to replicate. It might not be the mod causing your loading problem.
@JeniJenfred Aha! It could indeed be the save file:
"KNOWN ISSUE: Since the last update, some lots are causing the game to crash. This issue started with the update that prepared the game for the For Rent expansion pack, and since then, the game has become much slower and experiencing crashes that didn't exist before. At the moment, I'm waiting (and hoping) for a new patch that fixes this problem"- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising
I have to say that I'm really not sure. I never had problems with the save file and suddenly the problems were there. Everything works when the mod is out. It's all very strange. Sometimes it works with a new save, sometimes it doesn't work. I can't say for sure. @JeniJenfred Have you done a full update of the recipe files - deleted them all and replaced them?
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising i do not have any problems with the recipes. It is just the cook book file. When I remove the "base" file, everything is fine
@JeniJenfred It could be that the interaction with outdated recipes is causing your cookbook issue. I'd suggest deleting all of your LBB mods and redownloading.
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising did that but nothing changed
@JeniJenfred So, I'm fairly sure that there's a chance you have two issues here. If you play your own new save without any food mods, and then with the new download of Grannies, do you have an issue? And do you have issues if you redownload the save but play with no mods?
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising so the first option with a new save works, even with all mods in and grannies cookbook. And the second option does not work. I removed all mods and played in the new redownloaded save file. But my game crashed when I tried to move to the lot. But it is really strange because many people use the save file and they all have no problems
@JeniJenfred Your core issue may well be that save, then. Some people may not be having issues, but they may not be playing as many hours or doing the same things. And the creator themselves reports issues.
- JeniJenfred2 years agoSeasoned Traveler@luthienrising Okey and what should I do? Is the only solution to start another Save?
@JeniJenfred I don't see an alternative. You could try bulldozing and replacing the problem lots (if they aren't Dorms/Penthouses), but that's not a guarantee the save file doesn't still have the causes.
FYI Littlbowbub just posted that updates to a bunch of her mods, including Grannies, will be happening, but those are focused on compatibility with new mods she'll be releases.
