Hey guys. I just purchased dine out and im a pro at building restaurants but for some reason when i click on the choose menu button my menu doesnt pop up and it causes my game to freeze. any way to fix it? im very desperate lol. i can only use preset menus and its frustrating because my chefs arent skillful enough to make half the food.
Hello @Bmcgee33 .
Move your mods folder to the desktop. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues. If it does help, then put your mods/CC back into the newly generated mods folder in the sims 4 folder one by one or in batches and testing the game after each one to see which is the cause of the problem. Put one item in , test the game , take it out. Then test another one, to find the cause of the issue.
The UI cheats extension mod has been causing issues, If you have this mod, remove it and update to the updated version. http://modthesims.info/d/558548
I just turned on my game, opened my restaurant, no host showed up. closed it, reopened it, still no host. Checked my employees... has a section for my hosts ive hired but nothing under. and it wont allow me to hire a new one. I really don't want to hire another sim, I maxed out my host's skills... bummed. Hopefully this bug gets fixed.

Hello.
Check to see if your host is still in the world.
You may need to fire your host and rehire another one. You can do that by using the phone. I am sorry.
My problem seem to be quite common right now. You see it crashes alot.. Like way too much for my liking. I'm kinda used to my Sims 4 crashing if I were to play for let's say 8 hours bjt I get that. But just now I started my game and I got 2 minutes into playing and it said The Sims 4 is not answering.
This started when I installed Dine Out, or I'm pretty sure it did as it has not acted like this before. I did at first play with CC in my game, which hasn't been a problem before but since the crashes started I turnt it off in the game options. I could play a lot longer then though a day later it crashed a bit quicker than before. I hadnt saved so I rage quit and let the game be for a day. Now today I took out all of my CC from the Mods folder (leaving only the resource file in there). I also turnt some of my graphics down to lower settings. But I guess the game didnt like that because then it crashed 2 minutes into the game.
I have all of the expansion, stuff and game packs except for spooky stuff. The game has been updated this week and started the game once online then we went to my summer cabin where there's no wifi therefore I've been playing with origin offline since then. The game is playing at 64 Bit (which I also have heard have some crashing problems).
Is there any solution for me until Sims fixes this glitch?

Hello @eDettle
I am sorry that you are having these crashing issues.
Shut down your computer completely. Start the computer again, then launch the game and see if that helps.
Try moving your whole mods folder to the desktop this time. Then start the game and test to see if that helps the issues.
Try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder ( that is in Documents -Electronic Arts - then the sims 4 folder is there ) to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game and then copy back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders from the desktop sims 4 folder to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders from the desktop sims 4 folder .
Try switching back to 32 bit mode and see if that helps. To do that ,
Go to My Games in Origin . Right click on The Sims 4 picture.
Click on “Game Properties”
Change the “When launching this Game” setting to “The Sims 4 32-bit”
Hi, not sure if this has been mentioned before.
My restaurant employees just dont turn up the next day.
I had to constantly go to manage world, sale my restaurant buy it again and rehire again.
It is just so exhausting.
The customers sometimes just never leave, so you cannot get them to pay.
I wonder if this is some kind of bug that needs fixing?
I do not have any mod installed at all.
Hence can anyone help me with this problem please?
I have an issue where I placed the pre built lots and had my sim that I've played before buy one, it automatically took me to a loading screen, then where it says "select your household" so I selected my sim and it won't let me play as her it just does the same thing it says that the lot is unfinished but when I try to fix it, it goes right back to the loading screen

Hello @Triston.
Try going to manage worlds, and entering the lot by pressing the button that has the tools on it. Then check to see if all the required items for the lot type are there.
If you still have issues, come completely out of the game without saving . Then go back in again and see if the issue remains.
If you still have issues, replace the lot with another one from your library.
hi, my chief keeps freezing in front of restaurant. She shows no access message but nothing blocks her. I have already reset her but didnt help. Ther are 2 chiefs and after opening the first chief starts working and the other one keeps standing. I fired a chief and employed a new one. no change. I also replaced a kitchen station. Nothing. Thanks for any help.

Hello
When that happens, try closing the restaurant then opening it again and see if that helps the issue.
Make sure that you have 2 chef stations.
Move the chef stations to another position and see if that helps.
Make sure there are no routing issues, or walls/half walls or plants causing blockages.
Check that there isn't anything hanging over the top of the chefs station or blocking the shelf or side of the station that could be causing food cooking or delivery issues.

Hey everyone. I have been having this issue ever since i downloaded Dine Out. When i go to open my restaurant, it works, but then i cant close it. The open/close button does not change to say "close". It just says "open". Also, where the name of the restaurant is, it still says that it is closed. When i hit the open button, it gives me a notification that says it is opened, but the button say otherwise. I could really use some help! Thanks!

Hello @mmingee125
Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.
If the issue remains, you may need to go to manage worlds, click on the lot where your restaurant is and sell the venue. Then have your sim rebuy the restaurant.
If you lose restaurant perks, these cheats will restore them http://simsvip.com/sims-4-cheats-codes/#RestaurantPerks
Thank you. I have tried repairing the game, but it hasnt worked. I can try again just to make sure. I will try to see if rebuying will work. I will let you know!

Hello.
Are the staff unhired when you return to work the next day ? If they are, try closing and reopening again and see if that helps the issue.
If the issue remains, and they are no longer in the world, try doing what is suggested in this link to prevent culling happening.
