Hey guys, hope you're staying safe and well, I was wondering why I can't order food from a bar in TS4. When I look at other people's gameplay, they can order food from a bar, but I can't. I have Get to Work and Dine Out. Is it another pack that I need, or some other reason? Thanks!
@spiritanimal11, I don't remember when ordering food at the bar was possible in the game, but I would guess that it is either from the Get Together Expansion Pack, or maybe the City Living Expansion Pack. 🤔 Get Together was all about going out and creating or joining clubs that could either meet on your home lot or on a public lot. City Living is possible due to the bars added in that game, however most of the food aspects of City Living focused on ethnic food festivals, which is why I think the ability to order food at a bar might have been introduced with City Living! 🤔
Edit to add: I was thinking that the ability to order food at the bar was a base game thing, so if it is an ability from base game, then I have to ask is you play with Mods or Custom Content (CC)?🤔
OK, thanks a lot for the info! 🙂
I do play with quite a few mods and cc in my game.
@spiritanimal11, if you play with Mods and CC and are having some problems , you will need to get rid of any outdated CC item or Mod and replace it with an updated version, if possible! 🤨 Any Mod or CC has the possibility of becoming outdated when EA releases a patch to the game. Good Mods and CC creators will update all affected items to work with any changes that EA makes to the game, but it is up to you to keep track of that and replace what needs to be replaced (or else get rid of any Mods or CC that don't get updated). Otherwise you will continue to have problems in your game, some of which can be very bad!😞
To find which items of CC or Mods are causing your problems please do the following:
Please do all of the following:
1) Move the Mods Folder to your desktop
2) Delete localthumbcache.package file in the game folder.
3) Fix you game in Origin by logging in and go to Library, then right-click on The Sims 4 and choose the "Repair Game" option from the list. Wait until Origin finishes repairing all your packs and not just the base game.
4) Now, when you turn on your game again, it will create a new mods folder that will be empty. (Do not add your old Mods folder back) Check to see if your game is now working without mods/CC.
5) Now you can try adding back items from your Mods folder one at a time checking your game each time to see which item is causing your game to not work properly. If you have a lot of items, you can try the 50/50 Method.
You should try these steps any time you have problems in your game to rule out CC/Mods problems. 😉 Once you find which Mod or CC item is causing the problem, go to whereever you downloaded it from originally and check to see if they have updated it since the last EA update! If they have an updated version then replace your old version with the updated one.
And even if it turns out your problems were caused by something other than outdated Mods or CC, it is still best to rule them out by doing the steps listed above! 🙌😇
Ok, I will try that if I have any problems. Thank you so much for the help, stay safe!
You need get together
