It was getting a little too hot in the kitchen! We've tuned the frequency of fires that will start when cooking with the ChowBella Portable Pizza Oven and ChowBella Heart Waffle Maker.

Fixed in Patch 1.105.297/1.87

@crinrict The fires do happen fairly often in my main save, but I'm not certain what's causing them. Yesterday, when I was playing and experimenting with the new pack in my main save, there were 4 fires out of 6 times that I used the waffle iron and pizza oven. I thought that it was due to the Sims walking away or being low cooking skill, but maybe it's just random and I got unlucky?

No fears of fire and yes please.

First only put back your save game

Copy all content from Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4_Old\Saves to Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Saves

If there's a duplicate because of the new save you created, either just overwrite the file if you don't want to keep the new save or rename the new one to a different number that hasn't been used.

Now test again. If it still works, you can put the following folders back (just copy the content like you have done for the saves to their respective folders

- Screenshots

- Recorded Videos

- Tray (your houses and households)

- Custom Music if you have any

Test again.

If it still works you can move on to your mods folder.

Copy stuff back in groups. Start with CC, most should be fine., then your mods but do make sure they are compatible
