Carl's Sims 4 Guide

#Sims4 Dine Out Reloaded v4 is now live for my patrons. Features trailer uploading :) Learn more about the update here: patreon.com/posts/98650130

DO Reloaded, GO, SSFT, Colorpicker, and Seasons Tuner all need updated due to this weird patch. I am sure this is welcome on console but don't imagine many people with 500 mods want to disable packs/and or didn't already know how to.

@GMarvalise This patch broke a LOT of mods, those with custom tunings/menus should be checked into.

@CarlsSimGuides I am sorry that has happened to your mods.!

Essential updates for this patch, and improvements for my #Sims4 SSFT mod. patreon.com/posts/13302278…

Both Dine Out Reloaded and my Real Estate mod need updating today due to the patch. If your restaurant won't open, this is why!

@LePetitLT Nope still working well.

@CarlsSimGuides And what about your great Dine Out mod? Still no update needed?😊🍽️

Making a mod that allows Sims to master cooking recipes based on skill level. Mastered recipes will almost always be excellent and provide additional benefits. At first, cooking will be harder, but eventually become very rewarding for the family.

Sims will be able to use SimsTube to learn about a recipe and get bonus points toward mastery if the dish is cooked that same day. So it will encourage some variety. I'm hoping to make this also work with painting categories.

Working on this right now. Needed a way to show when a Sim has mastered a dish!

@TheHenfordHen @TheSims @SimGuruTrev @SimGuruNinja I actually meant that it would allow more usage of moveobjects if things like clutter and wall decorations that overlap with objects did not cause Sims to say "oh no I can't use this computer or table because this little object footprint is slightly in the way".

Is it possible that if an object has been placed with moveobjects you could stop considering it when calculating routing and animations validity ? this would stop a LOT of problems with gallery builds. @TheSims @SimGuruTrev @SimGuruNinja

Both Dine Out Reloaded and SSFT need updated as of the patch today. It took a bit as I had to investigate a strange bug related to waiters, but got it done. Here's a link to my mod list: patreon.com/posts/carls-mo…

IF you download a restaurant from the gallery and get the notice that bb.moveobjects was used on that lot, it's a HUGE red flag. Builders often make things without testing for functionality. It may be pretty but not work at all. Look to critical objects and make sure they fit. Be wary of curtains next to tables lol.

@introxmyg Thanks for the report. I'll have a look at it as soon as I can! Sorry for the late response, haven't been on twitter for a bit.

@CarlsSimGuides I know you apparently put out a fix for some EA bug when it came to using your mod and restaurants/dates. But when I click the table to reserve, nothing happens. I’m only able to sit if I click on the podium where hostess stands.

I just found that players who use barstools in restaurants would have a VERY different experience in Dine Out. I put out a fix that detects between barstools and chairs, and it's working much better on those lots. Here's a link to my work so you can grab it: patreon.com/posts/carls-mo…

bb.moveobjects is a cheat for a reason. Dont use this cheat around objects you need to function, like tables and chef stations in restaurants. Also, round tables have issues with slots and should not have decor in the middle, with or without moveobjects I'm sad to say :( I just put out v4.098 with multiple LE fixes.

I don't think it's too bad. @smileyfacewink posted this picture from my guide. Most of the items you might have to spend time in the area to get the flowers to bloom though. The fish can be RNG hell but is doable. Gotta spam some cooking while inspired to get those skills up. L5 gardening is easy if you go ham on seeds.

@jasminecantplay @mothescorpiottv There is like a 5-page thread on this issue. in trying to fix other bugs they made a new one by forgetting to set the priority on dates to be compatible with dining.

@CarlsSimGuides @mothescorpiottv apparently your date was bugged

Fixed an EA bug in #Sims4 #DineOut that prevented Sims getting a table when visiting a restaurant on a Lovestruck date. Link: patreon.com/posts/carls-mo…

Fixed a bug with Sims 4 #DineOutReloaded that was causing bartenders to not serve drinks for some players. This should be downloaded by anyone using the feature, as there is a high probability a LE will occur at some point during play without it. patreon.com/posts/carls-mo…

I playtested this, and it's super solid and easy to use. He's added little details like housekeeping, do not disturb, ordering food, customizing menus, COOKS actually cooking your food (which is nuts). Other guests check in too! Highly recommend supporting @Lot51CC
