Re: [NEEDS SAVES] No option to cook Japchae

I've tried with two different sims and on different counters. They will start to make it and then stop and do the "can't go there" animation. I just wanted to complete the event quest, but I can't make japchae.

    @WildPandaWalking I had the same problem and my reason was that I couldn't use the stove that was moded to look like the counters so I had to use the cheap stove

    @katanah1 cause this could be a mod conflict.

    Please move your mods folder to the desktop, delete Documents > Electronic Arts > The Sims 4 > localthumbcache, repair your game and then try again on a backup of your save to see of you can duplicate the issue on a game with no mods.
  • I had the same problem, and I have no mods. I had to buy the cheapest stove. It should work on all stoves no matter the cost were pack they came from. Again, I do not have any mods. If this is happening to you, get a cheap stove. :/

    @EuropaFrost Which stove did you use before ? I'm not using the cheapest one and it's working fine for me.

    Did you not have the option available or did it not work to cook it ?

    Hey all!

    If you could let us know which specific stove isn't working so we can start testing, it would be appreciated 🙂 

  • For me its not working in “The YumCooker” and “The Schmapple”

    The “Cooking U Pro” worked

    Sul Sul!

    If anyone is seeing this on a modless game that's also willing to share your save file, we've been unable to reproduce this issue on our end and would love to check it out.

    You can find instructions on sending saves here http://x.ea.com/74420 so we can take a look.

    Thanks!

    Same issue for me. I’ve tried removing all mods, even putting a counter and stove in the middle of the yard. Still happening ☹️

    @laura_black Which stove did you use ?

    @claudiaseg229 Do you not have the option on those or does it fall from queue ?

    Tried both and had no issues. Maybe it was that specific version of the oven that didn't work ? Have you tried placing another ?

    FOR THOSE WHO NEED HELP WITH THE WALKING BLOCKED THING: You need to have a counter with nothing on it other than japchae!!!!

    Hello, I had the same issue and emptied my mod file, repaired the game and thought it was a bug and came to this forum. Turns out I was cooking in a new build and the stove was not accessible ! (Realized it while tried to cook an other recipe) have you tried to check if everything is accessible in your sims' kitchen ?
