I'm trying to study a historical display at the museum for the event and no matter what I click all I get is view with Emits picture on it. I've tried all my museums. I even took out my mods and repaired the game and still the same thing.
Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title
any other advice, ive been at it for like 15 mins real time, and nothing... had sim view diff paintings as well
I had the same issue. I selected "View" on every item in a few different museums. On the 3rd museum, (in Del Sol Valley), one random item fulfilled the quest. I didn't catch which item fulfilled it, but it was about 40 tries in and the 3rd museum visited.
I'm not sure if that's an intentional RNG feature or if that was due to the bug. But at the very least, the "Historical Display" option is not shown as it should according to the quest log.
"View" didn't check off the task. As Trowicia said though, once I bought specifically "The Enduring" table and placed it in a museum, then put the "On The Hunt" statuette on top of it (the museum I was at already had one, so I moved it), the quest checked off.
I did try and view the statue earlier, but it didn't work until it was placed on that specific table.
Same issue here too!

Also help! I have no museum!
My museum loaded basically bare when I started this new 'campaign', and I didn't use it for literally years until I finally downloaded Dine Out a few weeks ago; I turned it into a restaurant! Now I can't progress!!
I don't have really any lots open or big enough to place a new museum, unless I evict a family...
I was having issues, too, until I went to Municipal Muses in Willow Creek and had my sim view the painting, "The Intrepid" on the second floor. I had her view a couple things at the museum in Brindleton Bay first, but it didn't count it for some reason.
This worked for me, thx!
Yess like it’s so annoying I play console so no mods and it won’t show just “view” with the man with blue hair picture
Did any of you try queuing an action after you used the view option? I used the museum in Willow Creek and the view action on the knight statue. I thought my sim was stuck since it was taking a long time, more so than looking at something at the museum usually does and there was no progress circle. So, I queued my sim to go pee and then the view action and task completed when the next action dropped.
I put this in the brindleton bay museum and it worked!
I was having similar trouble on my actual sim--the library option wasn't showing up, and while I was able to get the checkmark on the museum task, it was by "Viewing" an exhibit, not using the specific Emit-branded quest option. I was able to complete all the tasks by using a townie in my save file [Malcolm Landgraab]. Not sure if that'd work for you, but worth a shot.
