@Keli2Kiwi: You say you use mods. Try testing without them? (Move your Mods folder to a safe place elsewhere on your computer, delete localthumbcache.package from The Sims 4 folder in Documents, and Repair the game in Origin.)
Also, I've read that TwistedMexi's Clean UI currently causes crashes if you try to cook while using it. EDIT: @CGrant56 told me on Discord that...
"Yeah, but getting the Cook, Bake, or Gourmet Cooking selection menus when you click on a fridge or even Open these days does take a lot longer if you have a full fridge I've noticed. Much longer in my game since CotL. There are more options on the fridge now too. CotL added a lot of stuff for the fridge too. And that color in the OP's post is what it does when the selection panels come up. The only time I've seen those thing be fast is with an empty fridge."
Still, testing without mods is a good idea, anyway. 😉
It's definitely Mod or CC related, I turned off CC and script mods in-game because for some reason when I try to transfer my Mod folder out of my Sims 4 folder it says that something is still running in another tab (there's nothing open), also I don't have TM Clean UI but I do have T.O.O.L downloaded along with BetterBuildBuy. The shaders (kindle spice dove) I have downloaded do cause slowness but never crashing so I'm just trying to figure out what is "open" with my CC.
Thank you and @CGrant56 !
@Keli2Kiwi: You're welcome! (Was the game running when you tried to move the mod folder, though?)
Also, BetterBuildBuy and T.O.O.L. are reported broken with the patch, too. (I double-checked to be sure.)
No, I always make sure to close my game completely, I even checked the task manager. I'm checking now if I can move BBB and T.O.O.L out and if that resolves it.
Many of TwistedMexi's mod were broken by yesterday's patch/update. I know BBB was but unsure about TOOL as I don't use it. So you should check to see if the ones you use have been updated.
Hope this helps.
That was it! T.O.O.L and BBB are moved out of my Mods folder and I can cook now. Thanks for your help!
It was BBB for me too, thanks everyone 🙂
I have no CC in my game and mine is currently frozen with the same issues so I’m pretty sure it’s not a CC issue
