Create a room with food in it

I saw many room in gallery with many dishes (i.e. experimental dishes) on it, so I'm planning to create one of my own, but I couldn't, I got just an empty room. Is there anyway of creating such a room?

  • Doesn't the food appear when you want to share it with the gallery? That's weird.
  • Maybe by using the debug items? If you use the cheat 'bb.showhiddenobjects' you get a whole load of items in buy mode that you don't normally see and there are some food items in there. They wouldn't be anything more than decorative I think. I've never tried it myself but it might be worth a try.
  • Hello
    It is an issue in the game. You may like to post feedback on this AHQ EA thread about the issue,

  • I did a lot with the 27 dishes. You can not upload it in a room. It has to be uploaded as a lot. Hope this helps you out. You can find my lot under mcrudd in the gallery ;)

    Edit to add :)

  • @mcrudd Thank you for posting as it helped me very much! I was making a room and wanted to add the food, but the food always disappeared when uploaded to the library (except for the fruit on the table). Even if I added plated or unplated food from 'debug... it would be gone once uploaded to the gallery. So... after reading this post I was able to do the workaround and upload the food as a residential lot... and by doing the following it can be added to the room by a person downloading. Thank you so much!!
    Sooo... this is the room:
  • After 7 years... The “solution” is still to upload the entire lot to the gallery, which forces the lot to be empty because if there is another construction, it places the new one. Ideally, it could be uploaded as a room, which is what we do with other objects, and instead with culinary preparations it does not allow it. :-( 

  • Years later and I am also stuck with a game that doesn't allow to save rooms with food. Even switching to a new pc with a clean installation did not help.
