Mixologist behind bar, but not tending it, unavailable for orders

The mixologist bug is not fixed contrary to what forum is saying. They can't be clicked to serve drink, but only to talk with them. As well as the bar. The bug is occuring in the cocktail bar of Oasi...

Please follow these steps to test  your game on vanilla game with no mods/cc. 

  • Create a backup of your save game
  • Move your mods folder to the desktop
  • Delete the following files from your user folder.
      - localthumbcache
      - Any lastException Files
      - Any LastCrash files.
  • Test your save (you will loose all cc on the save but since you created a backup you can go back to that afterwards) and see if the same error occurs, then report back.

 

lukabab​ what exactly happened for you ? Seems you did get the options and a drink ? Does ordering food work fine ?

I tested this and while I still see the issues the game had before the fixed issue with bartenders having a tendency to not stay put, I was able to order a drink without an issue once they were behind the bar.

Seriously, it's not our job to do a lot of tech research instead of PLAYING what is supposed to be a GAME which brings FUN to us. The bartender are still not working. Listen to the players, and fix your game instead of denying the veracity of our bug reports. An in-game bug report button would be a plus (with an instand loading of our saves in your files). The option to order a drink is wether inexistant or greyed.

    Frantztztz​ If you insist on making bug reports on modded games, then they are not accepted. That's all there's to it. MCCC is a HUGE mod, please remove it.

    I tested this and it works fine for me. 

    LarbonLardon​ which symptoms are you seeing exactly ? Seems there's different issues reported now. Voting is closed to make sure people test on vanilla and provide info instead of just upvoting. Once all info is posted, the thread will be changed so you can vote. At this point, it's unclear what's going on.
    More info can be found in the stickies of this forum. 

    Metallia210​ Please also remove MCCC.

    Different bar tender issues

    • Bar tenders standing around/running off/not behind bar --> Old issue, probably has another thread somewhere
    • Sims resetting at bar when getting drinks --> Old issue, probably has another active thread
    • Options to order not on bar or bartender/bartender just doing idle interactions --> Fixed issue. Reported in OP. Please test without mods/cc if you still see this
    • Bartender just in a loop after you ordered a drink: Sounds partly different from the fixed issue. Please make sure to remove mods.

     

    EDIT: If you continue to have issues on a fresh user folder/new game, please list your packs.

      It's not because the bug is not hapenning to you that it's not happening to other people. I had it on live stream. A lot of people confirmed to have this bug without any mods. It's no wonder nobody wants to do bug reports anymore since we are not listened.

        It's not that we're not listened... Someone with power decreed that this bug was fixed and that it was players' fault (with AND without mods, on old AND new games) because "it works fine" for them , so there's no bug 🙄

      When I search for bartender on the forum, I find no "old" subjects that is not tag as fixed. That's why I created this one.
