Title: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: Ness on 2006 December 29, 12:45:50 ok, topic title says it all...
Whenevery I try to make the holiday roast, I get the empty fridge dialogue, even in cases where the fridge has just been freshly stocked with groceries. Any ideas about the weirdness is that is causing this? I have the 2006 holiday pack, if that is relevant.

The holiday roast only works if this decoration is present.

Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: blubug on 2006 December 29, 15:16:06 I got that message for the first time yesterday, with the custom food Gyros. The fridge was restocked immediately, but still, nothing changed: my sim could cook any other dish except that one. Maybe it's also linked to the cornucopia, I'll give it a try. :)
Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: Ness on 2006 December 29, 21:34:48 I would think that the option to cook the roast would just not be present without the cornucopia - at least that's what it was like with the 2005 holiday pack... could they really have been that stupid with the 2006 one? Don't answer that, I think I know the answer!
Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: jrd on 2006 December 29, 22:59:00 Well, they did something really insane with the holiday pack and Pets. I now have two "throw party" menus, one has the normal parties, the other the Xmas ones. It would not surprise me if they also messed up the food in some way.

Yes, it works with Pets & I've never had the restock fridge dialog come up when trying to cook the roast. I do have 2jeffs fridge waring mod installed but i don't have other custom foods - other than the ones Squinge or I did. I just got so sick of having to have that stupid cornucopia in every house! I don't know why they did it like that to start with.... but then, since when has anything sims related ever made any sense? I'd try taking out custom foods & see if that clears up the problem. Morague Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: Ness on 2006 December 31, 00:22:50 I don't have any custom foods! I've added the no-cornucopia hack, but I haven't tested again to see if that fixes the problem. I think we can put this one down to maxian stupidity.
Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: blubug on 2006 December 31, 02:17:54 Well I was able to cook Gyros with the cornucopia on the lot, so that's my problem solved. :)

Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: witch on 2006 December 31, 12:25:55 So what's a Gyro - other than a slang term for the dole in the UK?
Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: miros on 2006 December 31, 16:37:45 Lamb rolled in pita bread. It's yummy and the only place in town that made them changed owners and menus. If I can't have them, I want them for my Sims!
Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: jsalemi on 2006 December 31, 22:30:33 To be more precise, gyros are a delicious Greek pita wrap sandwich that's made from strips of a pressed lamb/beef (and sometimes chicken) base, usually with tzatziki sauce and stuff like lettuce, onions, tomatoes and feta cheese filling out the wrap. They're to die for...

Title: Re: Empty fridge dialogue when attempting to make holiday roast Post by: blubug on 2007 January 01, 15:36:36 Yep, they are kebabs :) Called "dürüm" if wrapped in pide bread. I got them from the booty, tsr's- simaddict99's greek cuisine.
