Off the Grid

I have never played off the grid. I do not know how she did it but her Sim made grilled cheese and a salad. No one knows what the free patch will contain for sure until it comes out. I did read on twitter that some cheaper items will be free. I do not know what they meant by cheaper. In the livestream I thought they said the new bike was in the free update but I could be wrong. The sound on Twitch was not very good.

With off the grid you can still use the fridge to make salad and grilled cheese. You can also get quick meals. I watched a youtuber do an off the grid series. I did not know this or if she used a mod or not. It is unclear to me what is free with the patch and what comes with Eco Lifestyle. I do hope at least the cheaper dew collector and a generator would be in the free patch.

Those are only coming with the pack. And how did the fridge work if there isn’t any electricity ??

There's a vintage style fridge that comes with ROM, and an "ice box" that comes with another pack (I think either ROM or GTW).

Hmm, do they just not say ‘functional off the grid”? Because as I was scrolling I didn’t see any of them say that. But also some of the candle items didn’t say it as well even tho they’re candles which means they should work off grid.

Hmm. They had the "functional off the grid" message for me. If you give me like ten minutes I'll see if I can take a picture and post it on here (probably more like fifteen because my computer is slow).

I appreciate it. I think my game might be glitches ?? My island living ladders are being marked as cc when they shouldnt.

The new bike is with the new pack. And yeah I know the major stuff we’re getting, I’d need to rewatch the stream to see what he said about the new off the grid stuff.

I think??? all refrigerators work OTG whether they're marked that way right now or not. I haven't tried all of them because there's a certain aesthetic I've been going for in my game, but I could have sworn they all worked.

Hmm okay sounds good. I have to wait for the patch to finish everything anyway to I’ll definitely take another look through then.

I could have sworn that they had the off the grid message when I placed them, but I'm not seeing it anymore. So sorry! I'm doing a historical save right now and I must have assumed that "vintage looking" automatically meant "no electricity". Again, very sorry for causing any confusion!

No you’re fine! Thank you for checking for me. Also watching James Turner’s video and they had the antique fridge in the off the grid lot so I’m assuming it does work off the grid along with the wood stove.

They work, they just limit the amount of dishes you can make which is why it's better to have more ways to get food than less because they'll all give you different recipes available. You can get salad and quick meals from the fridges, but you can make mac and cheese, eggs and bacon with the stove, and you can make grilled foods on the grill. Also sorry to keep jumping in randomly lol.

No you’re great! I haven’t used the lot trait a bunch so I’m still learning. And yeah I put that barrel grill in the kitchen instead of a fridge lol. Their (my Sims) house is a little (a lot) run down so I wanted it to look as rags as possible lol

Just an FYI, every fridge works off the grid, even the DU mini fridge. You will have limited options on what your sim can make but all the food gets the usual benefit of staying fresh in them for up to seven days. None of them are listed as working off the grid.
In a weeks time they will have the option to 'add ice', which I assume means that if you don't keep them cool they might start to not work. Water for ice will be collectable from rivers and ponds iirc.
If you simply want to store food to keep it fresh, the selling tables from CL or JI also work for that.

You’re the best! Thank you so much! The mini fridge will be perfect for my storyline! ? And good to know about the tables I had no idea!
