🕑 Added 2022-03-23 23:09:04 +0000 UTC
My mods are kept compatible with the latest patches and do not break frequently. To see which mods need updated check my Mod Status and Links Post where you can also find support.
v4.103 Customers - August 20, 2025
Fixed an issue that could cause customers to stop spawning due to the pack selector tool patch.
v4.102 Critical Fix - August 19, 2025
Fixed a crash on startup due to the release of the pack selector tool patch.
v4.1011 Fix for Mistake - July 23, 2025
Fixed a mistake that could impact some businesses not restaurants re: employees. All is well now!
v4.1 Fix for NPC Restaurants - July 14, 2025
Made an attempt to clean up any remaining NPC spawning issues.
IMPORTANT! Any mods that use the Restaurant Zone Director tuning from a patch previous to the Enchanted by Nature Expansion Patch WILL! STOP! ALL! NPCS working in restaurants. DO Reloaded will appear to be the culprit but those mods have to be updated as EA changed critical tuning on how shifts for workers are structured.
v4.0991 Critical Fix for NPC Restaurants - July 3, 2025
Fixed an error in NPC restaurants due to EA renaming things in the recent patch that could cause employees to fail to spawn.
v4.099 Critical Fix - July 1, 2025
Fixed mod breakage due to Enchanted by Nature Pack Patch.
v4.0987 Critical Fix for Late May Patch - May 27, 2025
Fixed errors that prevent chefs and hosts from working in any restaurant.
Fixed up Bartenders a bit to look more official. Their own career, better display name on hover (not "Host"). Not every notification is fixed, but it's a major step in the right direction for these previously poorly labeled employees.
v4.0985 Critical Fix for Businesses DLC Patch - Feb 28, 2025
Fixed an LE that could occur on closing businesses.
v4.0984 Critical Fix for Businesses DLC Patch - Feb 25, 2025
Fixed a bug that would prevent player-owned restaurants from opening due to the new update.
v4.0983 Claim Table Bug Fixes - Feb 23, 2025
Fixed two separate bugs that could cause a player visiting a restaurant to be unable to claim a table thanks to assistance from a friendly helper on my discord server. I was not able to reproduce the issues, but she confirmed the fixes for us :)
v4.0982 Exceptions from Patch and Tuning Fixes - October 23, 2024
Fixed a player-found bug that might stop chef situations from starting when players save with a restaurant open. Never a good idea, but the bug is fixed.
v4.0981 Exceptions from Patch and Tuning Fixes - October 22, 2024
Fixed LastExceptions on startup due to EA changes
Fixed errors with waiter job that caused an exception on open/close restaurant in the new patch
Sims on Lovestruck dates may start showing up at restaurants. I want feedback on this. Are they too chaotic ? Did EA test this thoroughly before changing the restaurants to accept these Sims? I need to hear from people as I may want to make this optional.
v4.098 Exceptions and Advice - October 7, 2024
Fixed an LE that could occur when guests move past the check in with host state.
Fixed another LE that could occur when taking order as an owner.
Fixed an LE that could happen when loading into an already running restaurant (which is never a good idea) because the group order is missing.. and that's why it's not a good idea.
I'd like to remind players that having objects in the center of small, round tables can frequently lead to issues where Sims will inexplicably stand up. This is an EA bug related to eating and object slots in general and there isn't much I can do at the moment.
Additionally, a reminder that bb.moveobjects IS A CHEAT FOR A REASON and can break diner tables, chef stations ,etc. I'd estimate 30% of players complaining nothing works have this going on due to downloading badly built restaurants from the gallery. You should avoid using this cheat around those objects that are crucial to the flow of a restaurant. If a table or object will not fit with the cheat off, the object is unlikely to work well.
v4.097 Barstools! - September 23, 2024
A member on my discord helped me to discover the difference in my restaurant and theirs! Fixed a long-standing bug where players who used bar-type tables that require barstools (ex. Hogan's Burger Bar) may find that sims NEVER sit, because the game wants them to use a different type of seating when it pushes this final sit interaction. I've made it so that DO Reloaded detects between booths, bar stools and regular chairs now.
Found grab snack from fridge happening with some guests, tried to ban this activity.
v4.096 Take Order - September 23, 2024
Take Order was failing for some players when playing as owner. This will prevent the interaction failing.
v4.095 EA Date Bug Fix - September 22, 2024
Fixed an issue that prevented Sims claiming a table at the restaurant host station when using Lovestruck Dates.
v4.094 Critical Fix - September 18, 2024
Fixed bartenders again - Found an issue where the bartenders would not serve certain drinks to patrons if a bad one was chosen. All drinks are now eligible if they are set up correctly.
v4.093 Quick Fix - June 13, 2024
A recent patch broke bartenders' ability to serve drinks to patrons. This fixes that.
v4.092 Quick Fix - Apr 11, 2024
Fixed an issue where waiters may not spawn in player restaurants related to the previous fix to fame.
v4.091 Multiple-Issue Bugfix - Apr 10, 2024
Fixed an issue where player Sims might order twice when visiting a restaurant.
Fixed an issue where EA caused a problem where having opt-out of fame on can make it so that the game can't generate new staff. This applies to all lots of all kinds where employees may be missing. Sorry, can't fix it just for restaurants but hope it helps this problem.
Fixed a problem where player Sims were told to go to a toilet or other destination and told no due to a seating test. Player Sims can do anything autonomously or player-directed now.
v4.09 New Patch Bugfix - Apr 1, 2024
Fixed a bug where there could be multiple instances of the drink or eat interactions on an object.
v4.08 New Patch Bugfix - Mar 6, 2024
Found a couple bad tunings, cleaned up most tuning errors, and fixed all tuning errors to ensure packs are not required.
Fixed a bug with fun customers where some scores were too high. Having low entry fee and decor/owner interaction will help with 5 stars. Fours were basically never happening.
v4.07 New Patch Bugfix - Feb 29, 2024
Fixed all tunings to ensure only The Sims 4 base game and Dine Out are required for functionality.
When playing as chef, walking away will kill the situation. There is also an x to kill the situation if you have a problem.
Cook Orders as Chef is now the highest priority so it will not be on page 2 of interactions.
v4.06 New Patch Bugfix - Feb 27, 2024
Fixed an error on startup in the new patch that could interfere with functionality.
v4.05 Course Eating Improvement - Feb 27, 2024
Fixed an issue that might stop employees running pickers, example being vet clinic/other employee seeking to help another Sim.
v4.04 Course Eating Improvement - Feb 24, 2024
Reduced a bit how often Sims will browse the menu and tried to encourage more talking.
Fixed a bug that could cause customers to order a 2nd course way, way too fast.
Sims should eat meals more reliably whether multiple courses are on or not, thanks to a merge of v3/v4 code.
v4.03 Customer Count Feature/Bugfix - Feb 23, 2024
Fixed a bug that could cause restaurant to freeze if a waiter is stuck with a bad order that failed delivery (e.g. animation exception)
v4.02 Customer Count Feature/Bugfix - Feb 18, 2024
NEW SETTING - Find the customer count multiplier in settings. Here you can go from half to 2.5x as many customers. Defaults to 100%.
Fixed an issue where bar patrons were ordering only low level drinks.
Fixed an issue where if no bartender was available, sims would stand around and never seek fun objects. Bartender is no longer necessary. Sims will do fun things and ignore drink desires if bartenders are not available.
v4.01 Bar Patron Bugfix - Feb 18, 2024
Fixed a bug that limited the max bar customers to the number of dining spots. We don't need those for bar patrons!

It's now possible to queue up multiple 'take order' commands.
The Apologize for Wait interaction will now immediately update a guest's star rating, if it is still possible.

v3.38 New Patch Bugfix - Feb 29, 2024
Fixed an error on startup that was entirely my fault.
v3.37 New Patch Bugfix - Feb 29, 2024

v3.34 Important Bugfix - Dec 19, 2023
Fixed a very nasty bug that could interfere with MCCC menus along with other mods. This patch is non-optional.
v3.32 Important Bugfix - Dec 5, 2023
Fixed a bug that would prevent customers from spawning due to a change in today's patch.
v3.31 Important Bugfix
A recent change stopped Sims being able to collect dishes and laundry when on their home lot. This has been fixed, and DO Reloaded collection enhancements will now just take place at home.
v3.303 Performance Enhancements
Speed 2/3 should see uplift on medium/low end machines due to greatly reduced logging from Dine Out Reloaded. It will definitely be a huge help the slower the machine.
v3.302 Bugfix
Renamed Mark as Main Chef Station to Mark as PLAYER Chef station, so as to reduce confusion about the purpose of the interaction.
v3.301 Bugfix
Found a way to rescue delivery orders when Sims 4 fails to spawn someone to pick it up.
v3.3 New Features & Improvements
Delivery Orders are a new feature and can be enabled in the settings menu (found by shift-clicking the ground with testingcheats). Delivery orders require at least one chef station to have Mark as Delivery Station This designates which chef will work on deliveries.
Walkup Orders are available in settings as well, and will spawn Sims who go directly to a Diner Order Beacon (or behind the chef station if you fail to place one). They will make an order and immediately take a seat, waiting until it's done.
Guests Place Orders is a new option. Guests will go to a Diner Order Beacon to make an order (found in build mode restaurants category, or search Carl). They will do this immediately upon arrival much as you might do at a fast food establishment or food truck.
Waiters Clean Much Faster by default. This is to help restaurants with multiple waiters. I designed the original in an admittedly silly way, and players gave me plenty of feedback that it felt like they were behind on cleaning This should no longer be a problem.
Take Your Seat Interaction is found when a diner is standing and in a state after being assigned a seat You can use this to tell a diner to please sit down.
Guests Spawn Closer is a new option found in the menu This will make guests spawn where player Sims do when arriving at the lot. The groups themselves also spawn together, much more quickly rather than waiting 5 minutes per Sim.
v3.265 Bugfixes & Improvements
Leaving Build Mode will no longer close the restaurant. Use this sparingly and try to avoid moving important objects. It's probably safer to add than to remove.
The "Restaurant Not Functional" message will no longer appear.
More optimizations to try to stop stuck groups with Guests Seat Themselves. Sometimes the game is firing off bad situations.
I am aware of issues with restaurants with waiters having work stoppages but am not yet sure why. It seems to be dish-related. Try to get rid of dishes and placemats to get them working again.
v3.262 Bugfixes & Improvements
Fixed an issue with the game not clearing guests between restaurant sessions, resulting in Sims not being seated.
Fixed an issue with increased max standard/child diners where the game might seat the family at too small a table.
v3.261 Bugfixes & Improvements
Found a way to rescue orders that are in the system but not tied to diners correctly. Leads to a lastexception about _order_status.
The Order Up! Digital Restaurant Display should now be visible with walls down.
v3.26 Bugfixes & Improvements
At the bottom of the Settings Menu (Shift-click ground with testingcheats on) you will find a new remove all naps option. Use this to clear sharing is caring, free love, and excessive violin playing! Removes all NAPs from the restaurant neighborhood.
Fixed a separate issue that can cause guests to not make orders while playing with a host.
v3.25 Bugfixes & Improvements
Fixed an issue where guests were not making orders with waiters sometimes.
v3.24 Bugfixes & Improvements
Further improved the vanishing meal problem. It should be solid once again.
Improved Guests Seat Themselves to be more stable.
v3.23 Bugfixes & Improvements
Fixed a bad test that might case problems talking on restaurant lots.
v3.22 Bugfixes & Improvements
The Meat Wall is now unlocked by default if you own Eco Lifestyle. Purchase a vertical garden and pick grow cruelty-free meat. EA locking up abilities behind careers irks me, as you lose them when you leave the career as well.
Fixed an issue with Guests Seat Themselves. If the game killed a situation but that group was next to be seated, your Sims might get stuck. We now remove them from the list if they are no longer present.
Fixed an issue with the Order Up! Digital Restaurant Counter. I think? I wasn't able to reproduce it, but it should be more likely to do its ONE JOB now.
The Set as Produce Inventory ability should no longer appear outside restaurants that are not owned by the player.
Made it a bit less likely that when Playing as Chef the situation will go on hold over some benign reaction while continuing to animate. They should hopefully stop over actual interactions now. IF you need one to stop, just select go here or some other simple menu interaction.
v3.21 Critical Bugfix
Fixed Blank Orders. Sims would sometimes receive nothing at an entire table due to a bug, leading to a time out and no meal ever served. This should prevent the bad orders being duplicated in the system and rescue them if it does occur.
v3.2 New Features!
Farm to Table - Grow produce in your garden and catch fish. Go to a refrigerator in your Sim's restaurant and Mark as Produce Inventory. Once you have transferred ingredients to the fridge, Sims can automatically cook with them when orders come in, boosting the profit of your restaurant. Better than selling them individually, I promise!
Farm To Table will also let players use meat from cows, eggs from chickens, the meat wall, and ingredients from the Cottage Living Expansion Pack.
New Object - Order Up! Digital Restaurant Counter: This new object will automatically count how many orders need to be cooked by the chef. Slap it on a wall and you'll always know how much work needs to be done. This was made by the lovely Ravasheen
Sous Chefs - When playing as chef but having NPCs , you can now enable the Sous Chef system in the menu. This will prevent them finishing meals. They will simply help speed up cooking times and your chef's skill will be used to determine quality.
Sim Owners and their family can now Apologize for Wait - this appears after a guest has been in the restaurant at least 40 mins and may be used up until the point their meal is delivered. Using Apologize for Wait can help you earn good Wait Time bonuses and also prevent guests leaving so soon.
V3.17 Bugfix Update!
Fixed the infamous One-Star Bug that has been plaguing players. This was my fault, but at least I understand the why's and can confidently say you should only have guests giving 1 star most of the time if it is deserved.
Fixed an issue with Chefs when playing as one and having an NPC. Use Set as Main Chef Station on the one your Sim will use. NPCs will not be able to use this. This replaces the "Player Counts as Chef" option (soon to be removed). Note if you want more chefs you must hire them and ensure they have stations not marked.
Improved playing as chef. Most of the time, your Sim will be able to stay at the station in between meals (ex if playing with a waiter) without constantly clicking to start meals.
3.17 is the new version number to fix the inconsistency with like "3.07" instead of 3.107.
V3.106 Bugfix Update
Fixed a problem that could cause the game to stall. Still working on issues with seating while traveling or entering build/buy with the restaurant open (an EA bug).
V3.104 Bugfix Update
Fixed a bug where a group of diners might not leave after eating a meal and complain about long wait times.
Fixed a bad test causing a LastException when visiting a restaurant and clicking a Sim.
Fixed a bug where the restaurant might not load due to invalid dining spots.
Fixed a bug with Start Cooking as Chef where a Sim would not put down objects they are carrying.
Take Order will no longer appear on guests after they have received a meal.
V3.1 Update:
New Option: Diners Pick Up Meals - Lets diners pick up their own platter when it's ready, adding more restaurant customization.
New Option: Larger Groups - Select up to 5 additional children for family meals, or up to 6 additional Sims for standard diners, leading to groups of up to 8.
New Option: Max Waiting Groups - Allows you to have groups waiting to be seated when your restaurant is popular and you do not have enough tables for everyone.
Super Smart Dish Collection System - Sims will now pick up dishes more intelligently both in restaurants and throughout the game. They will pick up the closest dishes first and try never to zig zag.
New Interaction: Take Table - Players who are dining in NPC restaurants can now just claim a table when the option 'Guests Seat Themselves' is turned on, so you can pick whichever you want without interacting with the host.
V3.07 Bugfix Update
Fixed the infamous One-Star Bug that has been plaguing players. This was my fault, but at least I understand the why's and can confidently say you should only have guests giving 1 star most of the time if it is deserved.
Fixed an issue with Chefs when playing as one and having an NPC. Use Set as Main Chef Station on the one your Sim will use. NPCs will not be able to use this. This replaces the "Player Counts as Chef" option (soon to be removed). Note if you want more chefs you must hire them and ensure they have stations not marked.
Improved playing as chef. Most of the time, your Sim will be able to stay at the station in between meals (ex if playing with a waiter) without constantly clicking to start meals.
V3.06 Bugfix Update
Fixed a problem that could cause the game to stall. Still working on issues with seating while traveling or entering build/buy with the restaurant open (an EA bug).
v3.05 Quickfix
Fixed an error on my end that occurred when updating yesterday. Should prevent a LE about PrePlaceOrder.
v3.04 Bugfix Update
Fixed a bug where a group of diners might not leave after eating a meal and complain about long wait times.
Fixed a bad test causing a LastException when visiting a restaurant and clicking a Sim.
Fixed a bug where the restaurant might not load due to invalid dining spots.
Fixed a bug with Start Cooking as Chef where a Sim would not put down objects they are carrying.
Take Order will no longer appear on guests after they have received a meal.
v3.03 Update
Fixed a bug that could cause waiters to stop working.
Also fixed a bug that could prevent players from taking orders in restaurants that have waiters.
Improved waiter response time on dishes. When 2 or more tables are dirty and there's nothing else that needs done, they'll go in for the clean using the new Smart Dish Collection System.
V3.02 Update:
Fixed a bug when playing as chef that froze needs.
Fixed a bug where diners could aggressively unseat each other while playing with Guests Seat Themselves.
Fixed a bug that could cause a fairly harmless but annoying LastException when shutting down restaurants.
Fixed a bug with uniforms when playing as chef.
These fixes are for 3.1 but are being pushed to this build so that current early access players and future free players do not have to wait for fixes.
V3.01 Update:
Quick fix for a missing loot on loading an NPC restaurant.
Dine Out Reloaded v3.0 Improvements
Dine Out Reloaded v3 is a thank you to the Patrons who allowed me to spend an entire month on this project. I use the financial security to make cool stuff happen! Consider supporting my projects and Download Dine Out Reloaded v3.0 Here!
New Owner Abilities
In normal Dine Out, owners really do not have enough to do. It's mostly clicking to encourage employees, managing their pay rates, and clicking a couple of socials on the Diners. This needed fixing, and I achieved it.
Restaurant Owners and their family members have four new abilities:
Show to Table - Click Sims standing about the host station, and you can seat them. No host required.
Take Order - Click Sims who have been checked in, and you can take their orders.
Cook Orders - Click Cook Orders on the Chef Station and your Sim will cook the orders until they run out.
Deliver Food - You can also click the food platter to Deliver Food. My script knows which guests' table it belongs to.
All of these interactions rely on your Sim's skills, just like the Host, Waiter, and Chef. Waiters do well with Charisma, as do Hosts. Chefs benefit from both Gourmet Cooking and Mixology. You only get a little XP from creating a meal, so practice outside work hours to unlock high quality food that will surely please your guests!
These were hard to accomplish, and represent the bulk of the work the last few weeks of Dine Out Reloaded development.
New Restaurant Options
Shift-click the ground with testingcheats on to access restaurant options.
I wanted players to be able to customize the feel for their restaurant. How formal is it? You may not want Hosts Seat Guests. This will stop Hosts walking Sim to their seats, and instead tell them a table to go to on their own. You might even skip the host and use the new Guests Seat Themselves option, which will skip the arrival stage completely. Sims will come in and walk right up to an available table.
Running a restaurant all by yourself can be tough, so I wanted to give options that will help Sims 4 players to customize the experience a bit further. You can decide if waiters are responsible for delivering meals and taking orders. Disabling either of these will put it on your Sim or their family members to do these actions. This can give you more time to cook or seat guests, or schmooze with customers to get those 5 star reviews.
If you want to hire a chef later, but do not want the first to come in you can use Player Counts as Chef. This will let your Sim be one of the two chefs. Helpful for a very busy restaurant!
Sims eat way, way too fast. EA took changes to this too far and made Sims eat faster in all instances, killing family meals where Sims are done in two bites. With the Sims Eat Politely option, Diners will stick around twice as long as normal to finish their meals. This can help Sims have time to converse and drink in between killing their entrees.
What's New in V2.5
Why Sims Don't Show Up to Work
You may be surprised to learn this, but Dine Out will let you hire waiters who do not qualify to actually be waiters. Same applies to hosts and chefs. The fix for this was to make sure all the criteria that are required for a Sim to show up at work are included in the hiring menu. It's literally why some players never saw the Sims they hired show up, and a point of frustration for many. I fixed it with the help of testers.
Meal Delivery
Despite my best efforts, there were still cases in Dine Out Reloaded 2 that caused meals to sometimes fail delivery. It turns out this is by design. Bad design, not some obscure bug. The reasons took time to find but were spelled out plainly. Waiters failing an interaction for any reason could disappear a meal, forever dooming it to be stuck. Worse, Sims could not order again.
I've cleaned up about 5 major causes of Sims meals failing delivery and it feels much, much more reliable. Near or at 100% reliability.
Before this fix and in normal Dine Out, players could end up behind several NPC meals when they first visit a restaurant, so I made a change. The player is prioritized by Waiters when it comes to having their order taken. This is to simulate that the other Sims already had their order taken.
Bribe The Host
What is more, Sims can choose to bribe the Host for $100 (by clicking the host or table) and the Chef will then cook their meal first. You can be doubly prioritized, and make the most of a restaurant visit without it taking 8-10 hours.
Bad Behaviors
While DO Reloaded 2 did a decent job of stopping bad behaviors, more potentially strange interactions have come out since I made it. Sims had a very out-of-place habit of sitting on the floor cross-legged while waiting for a table and sometimes after being seated would still obsess over celebrities. Both of these activities are prohibited in restaurants along with several others.
Waiter Logic
This is my best take on waiters in Sims 4. They operate smoothly and will rescue tables that have food or drink on them, going into cleaning mode if a table is blocked.
For now Waiters will no longer drop platters. It's a very bug-prone feature that honestly feels repetitive and frustrating for players, particularly when visiting a restaurant. I've eliminated it until I can stabilize it. Even then, I will only be re-enabling it on lots owned by the player so as to add a reason to train waiters.
Menu Shenanigans
You may be surprised to learn this, but the game is actually kind of smart in how it chooses foods for Sims. But to a fault. It is entirely possible a player can make a menu for their business which offers Sims 0 valid choices. EA has seemingly forgotten to put tags on newer foods that came with various packs, and no Sims can ever choose them. This could result in a Waiter bringing out the order only it was completely invisible. What happened? No food was chosen. I fixed this so that SOMETHING will always be chosen.

Hi! I downloaded the update, but I keep getting this exception: Exception in Sim Timeline: Exception resuming Element (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'intersect')
Francine Bérubé
When I load an owned restaurant to play it I immidiatly get LE's. I have your latest update but I did not upload the most recent patch. The emp;loyees comed to work but there are no clients. If I send someone from another family to the restaurant I get an error code and I cannot enter the game. The only mod I have installed right now is your mod and MCCC
Eddie237
hi, i keep getting an error business_service failed to handle zone load due to exception (KeyError: 214) on apartlcular save..is this related to this mod?
Toyona Howard
Thank you so much for your hard work 🥰
aromanticvirus
I downloaded the updated version and it causes my game to crash whenever my sim tries to travel to a restaurant
riee
Same!
ohmyjimin
I downloaded the updated version but customers are refusing to show up :/
Marisa (gfvsims)
Thank you for updating so quickly! <3
Sarah Sanya
This mod now conflicts with Down In Simsland No Generation Townie Relaxed Filters. I followed the deprioritization guide under his mod description, so hopefully that resolves the conflict!
Chris
Even with this mod, when my girl goes on a date with a guy, I have to cheat her, because she will starve to death waiting for her food. I still love this mod, thank you you❤️
Sarah Sanya
Also, waiter's are resetting and not delivering food. I had this with both the old and this newest version! But not before all the patch updates started
Sarah Sanya
Hi I'm experiencing a bug, where my sim's table is being combined with other random tables, and my sim won't sit at the requested table.
Tezzle
Is there any difference between the public and patreon version right now?
Puppy
hey there, I might be really dumb, but is there any known reason why my restaurant doesn't make money while I am not on the lot?
gloomfish
I might just be missing something obvious, but I am absolutely losing my mind with this. How do I set my Sim as host? I see the option to make them chef, but nothing for the host.
Cynquilla
Thanks for updating the mod, Carl! I've seen improvements with the mod than without. Much appreciated!
Carl's Sim Guides
You mean the chef never spawns .... just them missing? this is likely a broken chef station and is a common bug with or without my mod... because someone has made a restaurant that a chef cannot walk to the chef station for. So fix the chef station and they will walk to their station.
Zoe
Hi! Thank you so much for your mod! I have the most recent version and it's now triggering this error: Exception raised while processing zone spin up sequence: 'RetailManager' object has no attribute 'set_dining_spot_count' (AttributeError: 'RetailManager' object has no attribute 'set_dining_spot_count'), CategoryID: T:\InGame\Gameplay\Scripts\Server\restaurants\restaurant_zone_director:481 It happens any time I go to one particular restaurant lot that never had issues before. Any ways to fix?
Julia
sooooo just wanted to note the chef never spawns, just the chef
Carl's Sim Guides
Yeah something went terribly wrong. I fixed it.
Carl's Sim Guides
Sure thing! thanks for reading.
Carl's Sim Guides
Error in upload, something like this. Fixed!
Carl's Sim Guides
Something went wrong for sure! I fixed it. Thankfully you, Scarlet and some others told me
India Brown
Hi! So the zip file says 4.1 but when unzipping it says 4.0 7/3/2025! If you could please look into this, it would be appreciated!
Amy
Hi! I just wanted to make you aware that the current fix for this mod says "4.0" it unfortunately corrupted one of my save files, so I am pretty sure it's not updated. However, I really appreciate all you do for helping the sims run functionally and really loved this mod in the meantime. I would really like to see this corrected soon; again, thanks.
TNTComics
Carl, I just wanted to thank you for all your guides over the years!
AJ_L
I was about to ask the same thing. Attached files still say 4.0 and have a modified date of July 3rd, not July 15th.
Kay Miller
is it the right files ? the folder says 4.1 but files say 4.0
Jagged
Correct me if I'm wrong but I don't believe the files in the attachment were updated
livii
hi there, as far as I know, you cannot install any mods on a console
Kerry Kelly
Yeah there are no waiters coming up to the podium and the option to "request a seat" is not available. So basically the same experience as Nadia.
Chelsea Cua
Is this mod only available for PC players or is there one for PS5? Thanks in advance
Nadia
Hiii, so I'm new to this mod, but I'm having some issues with it. When I go to a restaurant with my sim there is no staff. And if I click on the host station, the only options I have is: take reservation and dine out reloaded setting. This was already before the update. I also tried it with different savefiles and settings but none of it seems to work. Also I read somewhere that the mod has some issues with Get Famous, I turned this DLC off but it's still not working. Anybody else having this issue?

This is the best mod I've ever downloaded. Are there any bugs in this 6.17 update?

latest update might have broke this mod

This amazing! How can i chanfe the chef's outfit to be the one I assigned to the venue? it keeps changing my main sim's chef outfit to a different one that's not the one assigned to the venue.

Hi i downloaded the mod, typed in testingcheats true and true when I’m shift right clicking the mod menu does not appear. Do someone know why

Hey, I just wanted to let you know that this mod prevented the Henford-on-Bagley stalls from opening.

Hello, I'm trying to have my sim be the chef but she's stuck in test mode. She'll just keep using the pot and pan to test, not completing orders.
Lauren Ellis
Hi there, I was just curious as I’ve been researching and there is no mod for your sim to send their employees on a break or send them home early as they complain about long hours etc. I was just wondering if there is any alternative or if you were planning on adding this in future updates? Or if it’s not possible. The mod is amazing btw having so much fun! Thanks so much
Jazmine
i really love this mod, it fantastic, but I seem to be having trouble with the interaction, I'm getting a great delay reaction when clicking on a diner, my game runs smooth until I open my restaurant its lagging and skipping time also my staff comes to work and they work but it takes a while before they start to work sometimes, except my host they really work but recently now they getting romantic with the diners and then gets stuck after . I really don't know what's causing it. One last thing, i cant play as a waiter or a host like i do with the chef, it only shows, playing as chef no matter what on all my house whole who is at the restaurant working. Other than that, the mod is fantastic, and I really love it great work... just for a future reference tbh I wouldn't change a thing in the mod but i love extra game play and idk like to control the staff more, like: telling them to get back to work and clear tables or even set tables, or briefing before starting work etc... like a real manager. with all that being said.. cheers to you again because i loveeeeee it a million!

For me, the wages somehow got fixed, but it's always the bartenders that break
Mirissa
Hey for some reason I’m not paying my employees? I don’t have the no wages file installed either so I’m a little confused. The only mods I have installed is wicked whims, mccc, better bb, tool etc.

Hello Carl, i want to say you're mod is a life-saver. But i wanna ask something. For a while, when I order, only one person's food comes to the table or the food comes but the drinks do not. Do you have any idea why this might be?
Harmony
Just wanted to stop by and say how much I love this mod! Restaurants are a big part of my gameplay, and this mod is a must-have for me. I appreciate what you do for the community!

Okayyy. I just did gameplay and it works just fine. I'm having so much fun. Thank you Carl

Carl's Sim Guides
bah not sure how that'd happen! If you like we can look into it if you join the server and share your save with me. Youll find a link on my download links and support post.
Carl's Sim Guides
I really appreciate comments like this. a lot of people only come to report problems but don't say how well it functions without other mods interfering/bad gallery builds etc. I'm super glad you like my mod!
Carl's Sim Guides
Could you join the server (link is in my pinned post on the patreon front page)? it's possible this is an EA bug where something like a shelf behaves as a chair and gets saved. The restaurant being placed back ends up fixing it in most cases. It's an unfortunate bug, because I can't seem to fix it and EA haven't acted on it for a very long time. For anyone with error 123: on a restaurant, this is probably why.
Chelsea
For some reason when I try to go to a restaurant lot, it throws out a BE & takes me back to the world select screen.
Levi
First of all, thank you so much for this mod. Everything works pretty well, BUT i now have this weird bug where, if i make my sim cook as a chef, his outfits get messed up after changing back into his normal clothes. Resetting the sim doesn't help and neither does going into Cas. :/

These pirates aren’t really playing games over here; it’s a serious business of managing merchant port and operating all these markets a tavern and this seafood restaurant tailored specifically for pirates in various locations throughout the expansive seas. That’s right we conquered Sulani took over that entire map. BrazenLotus food is Brazen Pirate Seafood now too we’re selling it
Victoria
I find myself in a situation where I could really use at least four Seafood cooks to effectively manage the workload, this place is crawling with pirates. Unfortunately, the current setup only permits me to have a maximum of two cooks at a time. This limitation is proving to be quite challenging, as the tasks at hand are more than what two cooks can handle efficiently. It would greatly benefit my operations if I could increase the number of cooks to four, allowing for a smoother workflow and better overall productivity in the kitchen. 🇺🇸 🏴☠️
Victoria
I've been using this mod for quite some time now, and I have to say, everything is functioning exceptionally well. It's been a real blast with this mod. I’m having a steady stream of people coming in and out of my Pirate Bay seafod establishment. I’ve even got two cooks one a take out, both of whom are family members, working hard in the kitchen. Meanwhile, other family members are bustling about, keeping everything tidy and organized. We're really making a decent profit and genuinely enjoying ourselves throughout the process. I’ve also been switching between different households, taking them out to bay, and it seems like it's always packed with customers, no matter what time it is. The energy and excitement just never seem to die down!
Ara Aguinaldo
hi! I already have the latest version of this mod but whenever I will start a new day, I need to set up new employees then once I've set up, I can't open the restaurant but when there's no employees, I can open and close the restaurant
sophie4000
Hi :) I've been running a restaurant with just my two household sims and everything worked smoothly but I had to hire a waiter now and the waiter simply does nothing (I checked the settings, they are supposed to do their job), picking up dirty dishes and putting them back on the table, never delivering food etc. do you have any idea what I can do to fix that? Thank you for your amazing mod!!!

can't open my restaurant while running this mod
Marcin J
Would it be possible to make restaurant earning money more efficiently while not being in restaurant? When I'm not in restaurant I'm earning 1k a day. When I am in restaurant it's 10k. I don't know if it's because of deliveries but I think it should be more similar when passive

Hi Carl, I've downloaded the zip file and extracted. The mod is in the game but when i try to play as the chef it says chef station pan (test) or chef station pot (test) repeatedly and wont cook. And when i try to play as the waiter, i click take order but the interaction will immediately disappear and cant take any orders at all. Was just wondering if im the only one having this issue or if other people have experienced the same? Thank you for all your work!!

I just came to download and after reading these comments, I just wanted to say you are doing the best you can. You owe us nothing. Always choose yourself and just do what makes you happy. I hated watching people snip at you while you're going through a transition in life. I hope you find happier times, which you will... and continue to give yourself grace. Can't wait to download after hearing good things about your mods all day :) thank you for sharing your skills!

gomory
i love this mod, it is rlly a must have of mine
Carl's Sim Guides
I'd like to do this, but it's an issue that Dine Out itself wants to make fake diners. So these diners can cause issues in the restaurant whether run by players or NPC. So it's a complex issue to resolve to have them there but actual, real diners that move properly through the motions. I'd suggest people try using them together, as depending on your use case it might not be such a buggy mess that you don't enjoy it. It came up because a player was having problems with diners not leaving and removing that mod was the solution.
Carl's Sim Guides
It's not broken. I don't know what is causing various issues people are having. The last patches did nothing to harm DO Reloaded. I can't help on Patreon though, I need people to join the discord linked in the pinned post (the first post on my Patreon) and talk to me there. I give support to anyone who asks. but my mod is complex, and other mods can interfere with it. I'm not blaming other mods, it's just there are MANY. I cannot express how many random issues people have with moveobjects, other broken mods, and various other tiny issues that can cause problems. Just because a bug occurs in a restaurant, doesn't mean it's this mod... The idea these various issues posted about are caused by the same issue is not possible.
Carl's Sim Guides
Hey. I appreciate this, especially the "human" part because I have had some serious issues the last couple months with the loss of a 12 year relationship. I have to admit though that I made some serious screwups. For the first couple years of my mods being popular, I was super lucky and also very active so my mods had 0 breakages. I only recently experienced a couple. But yeah, people seem to think that stuff breaks on every patch or that it's because the mod is broken and not that some other mod is out of date interfering with it. I've taken some criticsim for failing to update people on if my mods are broken -- or not. And the or not is the thing my brain struggled with. I wasn't telling people they are NOT broken. So this is a handy bit of knowledge to have if you are questioning if it is my mod, or some other stuff you have installed that is causing my own mod to break because a broken mod can break ALL python code and prevent mods from loading correctly. So I'm trying to do better at this and update my sticky post with the last time I cleared my mods. I just don't want to do this on every post... unfortunately on the public version we do have more people who have issues who are less experienced with mods or maybe have way way too many to manage. So yeah, I ended up with a bummercomments section due to my own failures. I'm just going to do better moving forward and hope for the best. I still enjoy developing and appreciate having some positivity. I cannot express how awful it is to try to deal with bug reports/complaints on here vs my own server... Speaking of which, another fuckup was me not opening my server to the public so people could only complain here and not get real support. I'm not obligated to provide support to the public but I do have the time to help a few people here and there so I opened it a couple months ago in an attempt to do so.
Star Zoë
What a shame to see so many people here be unable to mind their tone and their words. Carl is a human, they're also not paid big money by EA and a lot of us use their mods for free, so they got more things going on in their life than to instantly update their mods for you. Y'all got issues with the mods and want it fixed? Cool! SEND THEM A BUG REPORT, don't just fkn whine. Do better. Keep up the amazing work AND take care of yourself Carl <3
Lena
can you please make it compatible with No empty venues when arriving by Weerbesu
Destiny T
it says it's compatible with the latest patch yet we're all having issues. It should be tweaked a little bit.

Maybe the mod conflicts with the 3rd Dec patch since the "Unable To Request A Table On A Date" was fixed by EA. This mod contains that bug fix.

Carl's Sim Guides
No empty venues conflicts because there is a flow for diners and Sims existing already breaks that flow. I'm really not sure what one could do about that.
Carl's Sim Guides
You have not used bb.moveobjects on or around tables have you? This is the most common reason for this. Anyway this isn't a good place to discuss. Try here: https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM

I can't possibly do support on this site, but if you'd like to get help go here: https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM to the mod-help-compatibility channel. You have a conflicting mod, we have a bug, or you got a restaurant with bb.moveobjects interfering with Sims' ability to sit.

Hello, I have problem with last update , when i take guest sims to eat at restaurant they left while waiting second foods to serve and the seat are canceled and i havent paid yet and other customers spawn in till the maximun sim number on lot(around 20) that i cant invite over anymore , happen everytime , i dont know if i have this issue alone

do you know of something like no empty venues that doesn't conflict with your mod. or a setting. I am obsessed with your mod but hate showing up to places and sims just standing around even when there is more than 20

Hello , I’m having an issue that when I request a table & I traveled with a group it only allows 1 sim to sit at the table and not the others

This sounds like something has gone horribly wrong while trying to load the Sims and is likely a mod that is outdated causing the problem.
ria
and maybe we can have waiters walk customers to their tables instead of the host
ria
HI! I don't know if you take requests for addons but if you do, if it would be possible could you add " send employee on a break" and "end employee shift", it's really annoying that sims work with no breaks, and it affects their performance. The ability to send sims homes as "ending of the shift" would be amazing

Host not showing up is likely the game hired a host who can't BE a host. This is an EA bug I've tried to fix. Various employees don't show up over this, though it's "less bad" in my mod. Re-placing the restaurant can fix this sometimes when it's npc and you don't have control over hiring.

Unfortunately I'm having this issue as well - however the mod works totally fine for sims that aren't on dates. Unsure if it happens on base game dates, but can confirm it happens on lovestruck dates. Hopefully it'll be fixed soon!

I don't see where I can download the file the only option is the patreon version?
Enigma
Here's a bug I have that's so annoying. When I go on a date with a sim, it won't let me request a table. I keep requesting multiple times, but the host won't let me sit on a table and I also tried requesting for a specific table and paid for it, it still wont let me sit on the table. I have no other mods other than this dineout mod. It's so annoying! I had to remove the mod just to have a date with another sim an it worked. The problem was the freaking mod. It's so annoying. I also tried changing the settings from the host table even though I don't own the restaurant! PLEASE FIX THIS!
June
Thanks a lot for this mod! We love it!
Rosenburg
Hi. I've been troubleshooting your mod in my game because it doesn't seem to work properly when I visit a restaurant venue that isn't owned by anyone. I've removed every single mod in my game to ensure it's not conflicting with anything and I have tried this with and without the Lovestruck EP installed. I get x1 Chef, x2 Waiters, x1Mixologist but zero host. The tables also don't have "request table" option anymore and if you try to take reservation from the host station the queue interaction cancels coz there's nobody there lol
NikkyGal
Thank you for fixing the lovestruck dates problem - the sims team has yet to fix

I just do it that way as I don't want to rename the individual files for each update. the zip/date on the post should tell you if it's up to date or not. I just simply do not want to maintain so many files or make myself prone to issues where I accidentally leave a duplicate in my own folder.

I'm making sure support questions are answred on discord from now on as I miss tons of posts here. https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM - Thanks for saying so. Do you have any usage of moveobjects that could cause tables to be invalid for routing? if there is no show to table option, they HAVE been seated.. the mod is detecting they already have a table.
Carl's Sim Guides
That's a strange one. I suspect some other mod is modifying bills code in some way. This is a simple addition problem and moving from one category to another, and i can confirm that as of the latest patch it is transferring them for me. If you don't want to go through the trouble of finding a mod that causes this issue, you could just use the money x cheat to subract the funds to keep it fair. If this happens with just DO Reloaded let me know... or if you find the offending mod. https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM is my server, where you can let me know how it goes.
Carl's Sim Guides
Some people are reporting issues, and I don't like it of course. However, things work well on my end so I'm kind of at a loss as to what is causing problems for some people. Someone pointed out to me that my discord being only for patrons is problematic, and I agree at this point. This is a really CRAP place to give support. live chat works much better. I've created an open link and edited my intro post to offer support to everyone. I could use some help sorting out what's wrong with some players' restaurants. Here's a link to my server, join us in mod-help or bug reports in the support section: https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM

Hello, So I have a problem with the mod when I try to transfer the money from my household lot to the restaurant lot, The money from my household does not decrease but my restaurant money increases, and vice versa. Any solutions?
Carl's Sim Guides
Some of the people here who are complaining are using mods that are straight up conflicting with mine. it is not broken for everyone, and there is a lot that could be at play. It's not an "excuse" that it works well for me. it just DOES. Dine out is a complex pack and using a mod that conflicts with that code means it can cause my mod's functions to stop. On any given opportunity I would love to make it possible my mod work with other mods though. I do agree about support and will offer a link that is permanent for support. Frankly, people coming here for support is awful because it forces me to try to read every comment even when I am experiencing extreme, difficult life events. Here is the link for support: https://discord.gg/T42gU4bNBM -- I will put this in the intro post now to show people how to get support on my server. I didn't want to do this at first simply because I didn't know what it'd be like to even HAVE a server. I don't know what might be up with your issue, but I will open the server for support as of today.
Marie
Having the same problems, all my other mods are up to date but this one has so many glitches right now. Commands dropping, guests getting up when you try to do things like "welcome guest" or "recommend"... My wait staff aren't picking up the empties and will just all gather around a table not doing anything... My chefs like to bail 3/4 of the way through a shift or just not show up, meals disappear when served...
Brat Galore
So will this mod be broken forever ? Cause it definitely was broken these past 2 months with no update or nothing . it says the last time u updated it was in June ? But we are in September . There has been plenty of updates on the sims since u last updated the mod and we need better updates cause I had to delete dine out as a whole. Thanks
wind
pls consider making a big update for this mod, there's so many people who had been experiencing numerous errors so might as well just update the entire mod... i ended up having to delete the entire mod cause it became worse than dine out itself smh (stop giving the same excuse that its working on your side and doesn't even bother to try to fix it in the mod itself, its extremely clear that this mod is working horribly judging by the huge amount of new comments since the patch update), also having to wait about 2 weeks for a respond from you is just horrible and we can't even join your discord server for better communication since it's only for paying patrons which sucks honestly for mine, i keep getting this error everytime i enter a restaurant since the patch update... according to mccc, its caused by an npc who had a buff blunder from having a motive decay; on be, the script is 30% possible cause and the reason is "Exception raised while trying to run a test event in test_events.py: (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'apply_to_resolver')"... and there's another error that is 100% "Exception while notifying customer in sim spawner service (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'apply_to_resolver')"... btw there's many tuning errors too: chefSituation(185231828076724741) hostSituation_1(185231828076659201) jobs_Venue_Chef jobs_Venue_Host object_HostStation:0x0ec6127eee7401f0 object_homeChefStation_InWall:0x0ec6127eee7301d5 object_HomeChefStation:0x0ec6127eee810485 buff_NPC_Suppress_All_Motive_Decay

I'm having a similar issue at only ONE of the restaurants in Oasis Springs (the other restaurant in Oasis Springs and everywhere else in all other worlds work as expected). My sim tries to get a table at the host station but only has the "Take Reservation" option. There is no host in the restaurant either. I took out all other mods, did the usual repair etc, and tried again but had the same result. Then, I went to another restaurant, came back and FINALLY I got the option for requesting a table. I'm using the default settings for the mod and am using the most recent version. The only other mod I had installed during this test was Gameplay Overhaul. One thing that did fix my issue was putting a "Wood you like to Sit" Host Station next to the already existing "Host with the Most" Host Station. I wonder if I just needed to open build mode to reset something... idk... It's late so I'll test more another time.
Amazing Bananas
Love the mod, it makes the pack run so much smoother and my restaurant is actually making money now. Although I do have an issue where my customers won't be seated, they just stand around the host stand and get angry at the wait times. They only have the option to be welcomed. I have plenty of tables available they just don't use them. I even tried turning on "guests seat themselves" but I still have the issue. Thank you again for making this mod, it's a lifesaver.

hey Carl! I love your mod and it improved dine out so much! thank you! I just have one bug where I click on "take order" and the action just resets and makes the NPC stand up. I tried restarting and it's still now working, thank you in advance for your help
Francine Bérubé
It is winter in my game. My active familly behaves normally, also the employees in the restaurant but most of other clients leave their table to go out shovel some snow, make a snowman, make an angel.
MukiMuks Sims
for me it glitches a lot. and freezer up the screen for few seconds then goes back to normal.
Carl's Sim Guides
Possibly would want to scale back the number of tables to help with any slowness. Sorry for my own delayed response, if I miss an email it goes poof until I get others to get me on the page!
Carl's Sim Guides
You told me about this on my discord, right? Appreciate the report!
Carl's Sim Guides
It does for me but am trying to check with some people what might be going wrong for them. Players use a lot of mods and it's possible there are new compatibility issues.
Venink
yeah for me, the bars are still broken :(
send noodles
it doesnt work with the new lovestruck update

Does this work with the newest update?

Hey Carl, Ive noticed a very specific/weird bug with your dine out mod (Ive extensively tested with just your mod installed). If you have a firepit with either a 2 tile loveseat or 3 tile sofa attached in a restaurant, your sim cannot place an order - it just bugs out. It does let you request table but thats it. Other diners dont get their meals either. The weird thing is, the firepit or the loveseat/sofa on their own is fine. This bug only happens when a firepit is ATTACHED to a loveseat/sofa. Remove one of those items, and the restaurant works fine. Also chairs and single sofa seats attached to firepits seem fine too. Just to let you know.
Sham Alaswad
For me the mod is working but when i get my sims to dine out it starts to get laggy a bit but still working
Carl's Sim Guides
After communicating with at least one person reporting my mod entirely broken some of you need to remember to turn on both mods and cc AND SCRIPT MODS when a patch comes out.
Carl's Sim Guides
If the mod stopped working for you entirely here's a 7-day valid discord invite link so we can try to work out what's wrong. Mine is still working just fine! I suspect a mod compatibility issue of some kind: https://discord.gg/eXR4fW2V help me out sharing any errors in my bug reports channel.
Carl's Sim Guides
Mine are still working! I'm confused what is going on with so many reports. I need help to find a fix.
Carl's Sim Guides
Could you help me out to understand what isn't working for you/ I need a good bug report. Here's an invite link to server that will work for 7 days to anyone who wants to come into the bug reports channel and give me logs/descriptions/errors etc. https://discord.gg/eXR4fW2V

This is my favourite mod of all times. I am however having the same issue since the sims update the mod has stopped working. Keep doing what you do because it is amazing! I have even recommended you to EA for your amazing mods. They should hire you to fix their game (Probs why they broke them)
Ashlyn Adams
I have a couple of LMS dineout mods. like eating tweaks, I haven't played with it out of the game after realizing it might conflict, but maybe something to add specifically to conflicts list? will update.
Sarah Sanya
Hi! I am having an issue where the waiter comes to the table to drop off the food but no food shows up on the table. I don't have any conflicting mods and the mod was working properly prior to the most recent patch. This is also a brand new save.
Valencia Jackson
Mod was working great but then waiters stopped taking order/delivering food. It looks like the chefs are still cooking but no food is ever made or delivered so I lose money
Skyrimsimmer
just an idea but if you can add in auto open and close hours so that the owner doesn't have to be on venue for certain days and hours that would be awesome.
Helen Crowder
Posting this question again- Hi when I click on the carls dine out settings it never loads up it just freezes my game until I’m forced to restart it.
mesilo528
This mod helps with the bug that I have hired 2 sims chef but only one shows up?:<
Bruna Gaspare
Essa ultima atualização quebrou o mod, você tem previsão para atualização ?
Charity Leschinski
I tried deleting the bunk beds (dream home decorator) from the lot and now I cannot get chefs to show up at the lot when zoning in. It's like the game is zoning in a lot of customers and the staff show up last, so there's not enough available slots in the zone.
Charity Leschinski
I've removed all of my mods and I don't use build CC. Cleared all of my cache files and played with 0 mods. Restaurants actually work with my sim as guest. I order food and I get my food. I've made sure I am using the latest version of this mod. Issue 1: By default hostseatsguests = False and guestsseatthemselves = False. This makes customers never sit down. I have to modify the restaurant settings and then reload the lot. I can see in the config file that restaurant 0 is set this way, so I can easily work around for that. I just thought I'd mention it. Issue 2: Every order delivered is just a single empty plate. I think this was a bug previously. I'm looking into the LE file and it's complaining about a bunk bed on the lot.
Maria Espino
Hi Carl, did any of the "fixes" from the 7/23/2024 patch break this mod that you know of yet? Thank you!
Carl's Sim Guides
If you experiencing basic functionality issues it is almost always 100% another mod interfering. At times they get outdated and break other mods. DO Reloaded still works on my end and any issues you have could be any number of combinations of restaurant-related mods or custom content like custom bars, tables, chef station that you use in your restaurants.
Carl's Sim Guides
Another mod or object is almost certainly interfering. DO reloaded reduces the requirements to be a chef, not make them worse. I can't be sure what else you have installed but something else is incompatible...
Carl's Sim Guides
Oh my, that's quite the thing. I'll put this in my notes. Probably should just not change outfits on them.
Dimenarius
There is a little bug when playing as a Servo Player Chef. The played Servo switches to the restaurant's chef outfit when commencing the interaction "Cook Order as Chef". This unintentionally humanizes the servo. I'm not sure if another mod is interfering here since I am using "Humanized Servos" but you may want to investigate this.
maa
hey i have to the same problem where a hired chef wont spawn with the mod but as soon as i removed it, they spawned in :/
Carl's Sim Guides
Are you saving with the restaurant open? Sometimes the game makes glitches like this. Dine Out just isn't designed well to be loading into an open restaurant. This is the most common cause of errors. It sounds like a Sim wants to be there but isn't.
Carl's Sim Guides
Bartenders unfortunately say Host, but are you possibly using any CC host stations or bars on the lot? Also I have seen a bar tray that counts as a bar and confuses bartenders. Badly tagged objects can cause these issues.
Carl's Sim Guides
I don't use any UI in my mod so not sure how that could happen! Are you sure this is definitely my mod and not something else that mods the UI?
Pixi.exe
Unfortunatelly, this one breaks my UI (top right) :/ Anyone knows how to fix it?
Francine Bérubé
When I use the fun option no barman comes. Even if I have chosen one. When I send Sims to the restaurant there is a bartender but it is not the the one I chose. The bartender I chose plays the role of the host.
ANGELito
Got a error today that isn't allowing chef stations to spawn in but when i remove the mod it works fine
wind
i keep getting this error everytime i enter a restaurant since the patch update... according to mccc, its caused by an npc who had a buff blunder from having a motive decay; on be, the script is 30% possible cause and the reason is "Exception raised while trying to run a test event in test_events.py: (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'apply_to_resolver')"... this has been driving me crazy ever since :,)
Deena
Hello! This mod is perfect!! Just downloaded it and finally my sim who wants to be a chef can actually BE a chef at his own restaurant! only thing is, I found the guests weren't leaving? is there a way to kick them out or do I have to deal with them until closing?? thanks!!

First time using this mod now. It’s mostly running smoothly, although I still have the issue with having to be at the location to make any money
Yazybee
Now since the update my Sims can't run restaurants at all. I've uninstalled it and the issue is still there. I tried to sell the restaurants and they can't buy it because it says they still own it on the menu, but it also says they don't own a restaurant when you're playing them. Can someone help with this please? It's broken my gameplay permanently.
AngryPucca
Hello, after updating to v4.093 I notice my sims and waiters take longer to follow commands? I get this notif "Exception in Sim Timeline: Exception running Element (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'sim_info') ". I have Coolspear's quicker autonomy installed prior to switching to v4.093 which worked fine and sims moved fast. Ty in advance
Yazybee
Since installing the latest version, it says that my Sims don't own their resturants? On the map, it says they do, but when I'm actually playing them, they have the option to buy a resturant and can't do anything on the premises of the one they should own. It wasn't sold as they don't have more money in their household, and now they can't afford to buy it back. I guess they've lost all of their progress? They had fully trained staff, 4 star ratings, I'd done all the menus. Can this be fixed?
Carl's Sim Guides
It's not broken as of the current patch. Exceptions can occur regardless of a mod's status because we sometimes inject to EA functions. These can then make the mod appear in the trace that BE uses to say who is "at fault".
Carl's Sim Guides
Are you using a LMS mod to do this? I don't know that they are compatible. For stock Dine Out it requires them to have the CAREER or else it will make a random and conform them to have the waiter career.
Johnny Zest
So I added the waiter trait to who I wanted to hire and removed it from sims I did not want to hire but in the hiring menu a bunch of randos who dont have the trait show up. Whats the point in adding the trait if the preferred sims dont show up in the menu? How do I get rid of these other sims?
Yazybee
Better Exceptions says the mod is broken for me as well?
Jasmine ♡
i took my sims on a date at a restaurant and better exceptions is saying that the mod is broken
Carl's Sim Guides
Something has to be conflicting or else there is an object with a really strong pull. Sims should not be leaving their tables in a base game + dine out reloaded only install, so I can't be sure what could cause this without a deeper investigation.
Carl's Sim Guides
It's NOT THERE? that's something! Do you use any CC cooking station of any kind? I am not sure what could cause such a thing.
Carl's Sim Guides
My mod makes similar changes actually.
Holly Lyons
I reinstalled twice and the guests keep getting up or going outside, I can't get any proper gameplay done.

Can this be used with LittleMsSam's Random Small Mods for Dine Out? Specifically Restaurant Faster Cooking and Restaurant Eating Tweaks? I tried reading through everything but I can't tell if I need to delete those to use this...

issue where they not taking orders and stuff anymore , like everyone is just stuck and game frozen

Every time I try to open and play my waiters randomly leave the lot and never come back even if I reset them before they leave they then are no longer waiters and don't get back to their work.
Rasmus Massie
played sims still ordering twice....
Carl's Sim Guides
Not sure what might cause such an issue. We have some serious issues where other mods are causing problems/ conflicts. I don't think players always realize how bad some patches can be on mod breakage. Does this happen with just DO Reloaded? I don't have issues with it myself.
Ninalem
Im having a problem with the mod! Whenever I try to get my sim to take orders for customers I get a last exception error, the sims are no longer customers with the rating above their head, and they T pose until I close the restaurant
Carl's Sim Guides
Yeah, it's 100% required, sorry!
Carl's Sim Guides

Hey Carl, I just have a question, does this mod need the Dine Out Game Pack in order to run?
Familia Alcantara

Familia Alcantara
Hello, the mod is showing errors, I can't play with it, everything freezes!
Carl's Sim Guides
When you first start a restaurant Sims should not be expected to cook high level dishes without appropriate skill. It's a basic dine out issue. You will see a difficulty stat on each dish that corresponds to the amount of skill needed to do a good job (it's a 5 point scale).
Carl's Sim Guides
It sounds as if something you downloaded may have caused the Sims' orders to not work right. I can't be sure what mod or something else may caues this issue because there are so many out there, but a few people report this and I experience what you did in that my Sims are able to cook just fine. Can you test with just DIne Out reloaded? The fact you downloaded more and it stopped seems to indicate something has gone wrong. You don't have CC foods in the menu do you? things like this can cause issues if the modder didn't set up the items correctly.
Carl's Sim Guides
So if no orders can be processed, it's almost certainly a problem that is causing orders to not even go into the system. The only other exception would be if a player has used moveobjects on or around the chef station as that can cause the slots to not work, meaning the Sim tries to finish the order and cannot find a place to put it. As for the "not going into the system" issue, I don't have this problem and my chefs and sims are able to cook just fine with only Dine Out Reloaded installed along with some other non-restaurant mods. Is it possible you have something interfering?
LondonRoads
Hi, I believe there is an issue with this mod. Chef's are not finishing the meals when my restaurant is open. Even when I play as a chef, I am just continuously cooking causing an issue with the wait times.
Christian Garner
Hi, I started a new save file a couple of days ago and immediately redownloaded the mod after my Sims 4 hiatus, and for a while the mod was working perfectly. I've downloaded more mods since then, but now the Chefs of my restaurant will endlessly cook on a meal without ever finishing it. I tried taking out all my mods one by one, but nothing seemed to fix this until I actually took out the Carl's Dine out mod itself and left MCCC only in the Mods folder. Other issues related to the pack itself seemed to arise, but the chefs were actually finishing their meals again. I'm not sure why this is happening. Could another mod have broken it somehow even though I removed them all afterwards, or is this a problem with the mod itself? I'd appreciate any help, thanks!
Kenya Diallo
I love this mod, but for some reason the chefs are always wrong. The ones I hire never show up, and the chefs that spawn have skill levels too low to cook some of the menu items. I'm not sure if this is a dine out issue or if it's this mod.
luffyglazer
Hey, I just downloaded your mod for the first time today since I just found out about it through a YouTube video, and it's cool, but all of a sudden I get a last exception report, and unlike other times where it says 10% sure, this time it says it's 100% your mod. So I came back to see if maybe I downloaded an outdated version, but I don't think I did since I got it from your pinned post. I don't usually comment on posts, but recently I came across a big issue with my save file because I wasn't keeping an eye on my outdated mods, so I'm trying not to repeat that same mistake.
Mary Phillips
Having issues with the script in the mod, Waiters put food down but the plate is empty and sims are t-posing once it has been put down causing the game to freeze for a few mins.
Aïcha Ndiaye
Hi Carl, idk what is wrong but everytime I load my game am having an exception report that says invalid tuning mod and it says that this mod is 100% the cause.

Maria Dewi
hai carl did your mod conflict with spgm Mods?? because i cannot get 6-8 cust with your mod i already setting 4 extra diners but only 2/3 customers showing. can you help me? or maybe your mod need to be updated?
Carl's Sim Guides
Did you ever have luck figuring out why this is happening? I didn't make such radical changes that entire restaurants would stop functioning in this update. This sounds like something is going on with the restaurant data itself (the NPC? restaurant in question).
Carl's Sim Guides
It's compatible, yeah. Sorry I missed this. Looking back manually as I don't see all the emails.
Carl's Sim Guides
This could be the fame bug? Do you have opt in to fame turned off? Are the employees correct (the ones who do show)
LadyEdgelord
Hi Carl, I'm having an issue. Where can I get help, please? When I play a sim who owns a restaurant, and that sim opens the restaurant, all hired employees show up. But, if I play as a sim from another household and go to that restaurant, not all employees show up? One or two are always missing. Thanks in advance.
Chainedyetadrift
Nevermind, I was able to find the issue. Sorry!
Chainedyetadrift
Hi Carl! Love this mod. With the newest vers, I keep getting the following exception: "Exception raised while processing zone spin up sequence: 'RetailManager' object has no attribute 'set_dining_spot_count' (AttributeError: 'RetailManager' object has no attribute 'set_dining_spot_count'), CategoryID: restaurant_zone_director:479" Could this be a lot issue or possibly an issue with DO? The exception kicks me back to the world view screen and my sims are stuck on the lot.

Your new update isn't working at all. Chefs aren't cooking. Waiters are standing around. There isn't any host. Can't order food. Can't request a table.

Tychena Perez
Hi Carl, i asnt having any issues with prev version is there any way i can get it back? Since the update you did for today all the waiters are not showing up and some chefs too. I wasnt having this issue until i did the recent update
Carl's Sim Guides
I just keep my main files named after the major version. it saves me a lot of trouble. Are you on an older version of Sims 4? A lot of players are and the game has renamed some classes so the newest build won't work without that update to the game.
Carl's Sim Guides
Oof. That's a lot of troubles. I'm sorry this is happening but it almost HAS to be some other mod interfering or some other glitch. I worked really hard on this and it won't be nearly that bad without something causing an issue outside of its code. I'm sorry I come late with this but if you join us here in the mod-help channel maybe we can figure it out: https://discord.gg/vM4GmPAb
Carl's Sim Guides
Not sure what you mean by it saying it's not compatible? Older versions of Sims 4 won't work with DO Reloaded due to EA renaming several vital classes.

For me some of the features of this mod works for me and some dont, its weird. and one thing I noticed is that once I put your mod in and look at employment tab it no longer has a tab for my waiters. only the chefs
S'ymone Ranea
Game is saying that this update is not compatiable beacuse its 4.0 when we open the file of 4.9. Is there anything else we should be doing?
wait that is illegal
Hi Carl, I love the mod but I had to completely remove it out my game because all the sims on the lot just go to the host stand and just stand there. The cook seems to cook invisible food and the waiters just go around doing nothing but interacting with each other. I updated all my food mods but that doesn't seem to be the problem. Also I looked at the file when I downloaded it and it says 4.0 instead of 4.9 maybe that's the problem? Thanks a bunch for the mod though :)
Carmen Phoon
Hello Carl, I'm not sure why I keep getting an exception every time my sim is at a bar. BE reports that it is the dine out mod. I did already update it to the latest one. Any ideas why? I am wondering though, the latest updated one should be 4.09 right? But when I unzip the file, it says 4.0. Could that be the reason why? Thanks for all you do, I appreciate having this mod.
Carl's Sim Guides
I can't be sure what bug is happening here. The payment should be received upon delivery of the meal and without outside interference this should be near-flawless, not failing 100% of the time. You aren't using any cc foods that haven't been set up for dine out, are you? Just checking as that can be one problem.
Carl's Sim Guides
Somethign is going on with the script if mixologist is actually in the host category. they are based on hosts, but when everything is working correctly they have their own category and will not be put into the host role at all. Multiple hosts, I've considered, it's just problematic due to how the game handles the arrivals. I can pick a waiter to do a task, but it needs to be set up from scratch to pick a host that doesn't already have a line.
Carl's Sim Guides
Hey, not a dumb question at all. You do need to own the pack due to all the resources that are in that pack that are used by the game. I'd probably get in trouble for making all of those free -- if I even could :P
Nastassia Neely
Im sorry if this is a crazy question, but do we have to buy the dine out expansion pack to use this? Or does it make it free?
Sherina Kawai
Hello! I want to report an issue. I'm opening a restaurant and everything went fine except the customers won't pay for the food so my profit keep decreasing. Is there a way to fix this problem? Thanks!
Chillax8
Why does this mod not have an option to hire an extra Host? We need more hosts too, at least two in total. Please add that as an option, other hosts mods have been abandoned and forgotten. I really need and want another host. Also the Mixologist shows up as a host and not its own category, messing up the host I have picked out.
Chainedyetadrift
Hi Carl, love this mod! Thank you for all your hardwork. I notice the newest vers says 4.09, but the script/pckg is 4.0. Can you check to see if these are the right files?
Carl's Sim Guides
Something clearly wrong, and most likely a mod compatibility or restaurant setup issue. This won't happen with stock.
Edley Hitosis
Installed it but no orders are being fulfilled and customers just leave :(
Carl's Sim Guides
The rewards still work, it's just the default has been increased to be higher. So you can still get additional chef + waiters from perks :)

Hey under manage employees it's still asking me to use perk points.
Carl's Sim Guides
It accepts all custom food mods, the creator themselves just have to have them set up correctly to work with Dine Out (price, etc.)
SparrowWolf93
Hi there! I am so excited to try this mod, but am wondering if it might conflict with Basemental's mods or custom food mods. Has anyone reported issues with these? Thank you so much!!
Carl's Sim Guides
Yeah. This is going to be from having an older version of the game. The newest update added new classes and those are imported in my scripts. So them not existing will cause it to fail. Is this likely accurate? I think I had to import the new classes right at the end of my update cycle for this most recent patch.
Carl's Sim Guides
So it has vanished from the installed mods list ? You aren't using an older copy of the game, are you? Just checking as they added new classes and also renamed some in recent updates and a bad line of code from that new stuff not existing could cause this issue to come up.
Carl's Sim Guides
So right now, it's not. I wanted to make this happen but couldn't figure out exactly why the game was axing one of the sims from playing each time. It seems insistent there be only the one. It's probably some mistake on my part when making the custom situation, but i still have to track down the why of it. However it is in my notes for a future update/fix to figure this out.
Carl's Sim Guides
I've seen this happen before, but I can't remember WHY it happens. It sounds like something is causing the mod startup to glitch and it's re-running itself. Could you get with me on https://discord.gg/ae8sWBdg in mod-help-compatibility channel so that i can have a look at your startup log?

Is it possible to play with 2 sims as chef? If I have a household of 3 sims I would like to play with 2 of them as chef and one as waiter. If sims 1 is cooking as chef and I want to sim 2 to cook as chef the sim 1 stops cooking.
Natalie
Hi! I just wanted to report an issue. Whenever I click on a drink from the bar, there's like 5 pages of "Drink" interactions in the pie menu. I removed my mods folder and checked, and I don't have this with the vanilla game. So I tested all of my mods in batches, and I narrowed it all the way down to Dineout Reloaded. That seems to be the mod that's causing it and I no longer have the issue when I remove the mod from my game. I've also tried just deleting all the files I had for DOR and downloading a fresh copy of v4.08 with a new settings.ini, but it still causes the same issue with no other mods present in my game.
Carl's Sim Guides
I'm not sure what all mods work with it because there are so many out there. It should not hurt to give it a try!
Carl's Sim Guides
You don't have any duplicate installs of the mod or anything weird going on with packages, do you? Sometimes MS onedrive can put files back in that aren't meant to be there by the user. I haven't heard of anyone having this issue with just DO Reloaded installed.
Carl's Sim Guides
That's really strange. Is there any possibility you had CC food on the menu? Unfortunately sometimes the save data of a restaurant gets messed up with mods and that's one possibility. It may not actually eliminate those from the menu. Without a clean install of the mod and a fresh restaurant without possible interference from other mods, I can't be sure what would cause such a catastrophic failure.
SimmerCake
Hello and thank you! Do you think this mod is compatible with Sanjo's "restaurants off lot like on lot" and with LittleMsSam's "Hire certain Sims (incl. Family Members) at Restaurants" (of course when not using this mod "play as" feature)?
Kayci Morgan
Hey Carl, ever since I updated to the 4.08 version whenever I click a drink, there are like 12+ options to drink. To figure out which mod was causing it, I pulled out every mod and even with no mods installed but this one, the bug still persists. I'm on my home lot when I come across the bug with bar drinks and tray drinks.
Yazybee
I've spent hours trying to get the mod to work with no success. The meals can't be served. The plate goes down with no food on it. The restaurant loses money because it hasn't served any patrons. Customers keep getting up as soon as they sit down. There's no text over the option to hire a mixologist, just an empty bubble. The previous version worked perfectly. I don't have any conflicting mods. I've tried removing and testing them all one-by-one (even the CC beds and sofas, as sometimes they can cause errors) and there's still the same issue. Does anyone know what's going wrong?
Carl's Sim Guides
Sorry, not sure what you mean. That mod was interfering back when I made the original post but I can't be sure what could/is still going on with it regarding compatibility.
Carl's Sim Guides
Can't be sure exactly why but it's not installed correctly. If it's installed right you should see not just 2 files in your mods folder, but 4. There should also be a log and settings file. Nothing can stop this. Are you sure you have script mods turned on in the options? There are 2 separate options for mods and both must be on, and both files must be in the same/correct place inside the mods folder.
Tomasz Cader
Hello Carl! I got a one problem with mod. So basicly its looks like a script file doesnt work, i got new objects from mod (like this one where sims can pick orders), but i cant open "settings" to change anything, just dont have that option even with testingcheats on. Sometimes also i got error number "109:288e98f3:d9e53121" while i try to travel to restaurant. I try to reinstall mod or delete the others and leave just your, but nothing new happen. Can u help me with that?

Try deleting your settings config file that the mod creates. It sounds like you have a really old version that is causing issues.

This Mod since its initial version is incredible, but this version simply has a lot of conflicts, since I installed it I can't access any of my restaurants and all the mods that involve some type of personalized drink my sims can't drink, my baby couldn't drink the milk from the childbirth mod, my sims can't drink the bottle from the thirst zero mod, just get this error: configparser.NoOptionError: No option 'maxwaitinggroups' in section: 'CarlDineOutSettings'

Hello Carl, first of all I want to thank you for creating this wonderful MOD, thank you very much for everything. Second, unfortunately it's not working in my game. I have already updated UI Cheats; I have already activated all script options and other necessary functions; I also have XML Injector. The two objects you added appear in my game but your MOD options do not appear. I use the Live in Business by LittleMsSam MOD and I've uninstalled it and installed it back and it still doesn't work. Also, my entire game is updated. Please, do you know why it's still not working?
Carl's Sim Guides
Something is going on with routing in the restaurant. I can't be sure, but there is something stopping them doing the run seat interaction and this is also going to CLAIM the seat. So it is going to require some debuggin on your part. Have you used moveobjects on for any of hte tables , chairs, or objects on it? it being 50/50 tells us some tables likely work.

Hi Carl! Quick question, I have my sims running a restaurant by themselves, no employees. I have the setting so that customers should be coming to the order beacon to place their orders, however they don't do that and get mad and leave unless I take their order myself. Also, as diners come in (they are supposed to seat themselves), half of them T-Pose and they reset so they lose the rating above their head as if they aren't diners anymore. The ones that dont do that have a 50/50 chance of sitting at a table or standing at the host stand. Any ideas what my issue may be?
Carl's Sim Guides
The version is the same name inside the zip. I just don't rename each and every package/build. It's too much for me to manage.
Carl's Sim Guides
Being honest, as far as I know customers shouldn't need to use the toilet. if you mean as a player, I haven't blocked that specific interaction but I'll put it into my notes to have a look.
Aga
Sims as customers are unable to use the toilet. Only removing this mod from my 'mods' folder helped unfortunately. Is there any setting I am probably missing? They are able to get close to the toilet, but then to use it, it shows like they can't reach it.
Karen O`Brien
Hi Carl hope all is well. Im having an issue with this download. the zip folder says version 4.08 but when i unzip it the package and script files says version 4.0. what do i do?
Capucine Chatman
Hi so I saw the solve to this on discord. You need to click the opt in button on settings for fame. it is the opt in /out of fame bug. Look at that setting and click and reload. It works.
wind
hi carl! i have been having issue with the buff decay blunder with a npc chef using the chef station since getting this latest update and its making it impossible to play in a restaurant! the be report says "Exception while notifying customer in sim spawner service (AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'apply_to_resolver')" and it package file itself seem to have a tuning error too!
Abigail Blackwod
Hello, I love your mod, but my sims can't "order for table" and my sims can't put their toddlers into highchairs at the restaurant either. I took the mod out and the interactions work just fine so I'm not sure what's going on there.
Alpha Stormeex
Hey, Carl! Thank you SO much for this game changing mod! I just have an issue I'm having trouble finding info/an answer on: Once you use the points to unlock a new chef slot, can you have TWO of your sims be chefs and one NPC? I wanted the oldest son to cook with his father but every time I try to have him cook on the third chef station (even if it is set as player station) he teleports to the front of the lot and the action cancels. I am getting a feeling it might be a problem with the station... but I'm not sure. Any thoughts/fix for this?
Capucine Chatman
I have this same problem I just took the mod out and they could order again. was not sure what was going on
Carl's Sim Guides
The mod doesn't change the game's default customer count. It only allows you to increase it. most people who say this are surprised to find that Sims have a schedule and actually arrive mostly in the early afternoon to evening time frame, because it's meant to mimic real life. There is an option in the mod menu to increase the customer count if you like.
Carl's Sim Guides
This could be the bug with the opt into fame option in the game options menu. Try changing it to the alternative and see if they spawn. I am still unsure why this happens but it is an explanation for wait staff not showing.
AliSimphany
I've updated all my mods but for some reason my Sims are unable to "Order For Table". I don't believe I have any conflicting mods. Any suggestions?
Evgeniya Kuznetsova
Hello. I'm using the latest version of the game and the latest version of the mod. Problem: when a person comes to a restaurant, he cannot place an order. I observe that waiters do not come to the lot. My Sim doesn't own a restaurant, and neither do any other Sims (the restaurant is just for visiting). There was no such bug before.
임혜지
Because of this mode, not many customers come.
Carl's Sim Guides
Have you updated mods/used mods or added new mods on your PC that might interfere? I can only confirm that nothing so extreme has changed since v4.0/v4.08 that could cause such an extreme bug to originate from my own scripts. It could be anything from new CC objects to new script mods, or an entirely different restaurant. It's hard to say, but with a fresh game, no interfering mods, etc this shouldn't happen. You haven't used moveobjects on cheat and anything that could block the serving of the items that might cause a breakage in the seating/placement of items?
Aziyah Pedrosa
Hello, I have v4.08 with all my mods update and the game updated but every since I updated to v4.08, every time my waiters go to serve the food the people at the table reset and the plates have no food on them.
Emma Byrne
Hi my station is set to player chef station but all she is doing is trying out experimental food, every time I click fill orders it stops and immediately goes back to experimental cooking? I've tried deleting and reloading etc but any advice?
Carl's Sim Guides
Not certain what could cause that. There are definitely some mods that can conflict, but so many mods exist that I can't be sure. Some players also fail to set up a menu and this can cause issues. You or anyone else with trouble can reach us in the mod-help-compatibility channel here: https://discord.gg/kkpnMP5w
Carl's Sim Guides
you should look at the lot in manage worlds to see if there are objects like platters/menus the game failed to delete (if you are trying to load a restaurant) DO Reloaded should not stop the loading of a lot in any case by itself. If there are bugs they are going to impact the loading of restaurants, but only very rarely.
Julia Beatriz Orfeu
Hi, I'm having a problem with the mod, I'm not able to play, a warning appears: `"Failed to load the game. Error Code 123:20ece5dd:23121b4b. Restarting the game is recommended". I can't find anything about this error. If it's possible, could someone help me?
1•Mobulis•1
I'm having issues, when my sim plays the chef role they do not serving anything. Only the animation plays.
Lana Reid
Honestly thankyou so much for this. One, quick question: does this still works with the overly-destructive Crystal Creations patch?
Carl's Sim Guides
Save data issue with the staff most likely. Try to fire and rehire, or re-place the restaurant if that doesn't work. This is a bug unrelated to Dine Out Reloaded as far as I'm able to tell :( Sometimes the game thinks you don't even own the restaurant. It's quite... quirky! let's say.
TTra
Yesterday I was playing and everything seemed normal.
TTra
Hi, Carl, I don't know if I'm the only one with this problem, but my chefs aren't preparing the customers' food. I've fired several chefs and hired new ones but I still have the same problem. i really don't know what's the Problem.
Selena Ransom
so i am lucky that dine out was never *too* buggy for me but i still have used your mod for a long time because of HOW LONG it would take to get food, but since the update feb 28th or whatever (yes i've downloaded the latest version of the mod) waiters WILL NOT SHOW UP but hosts and chefs do. do you know why this might be? also the 2 restaurants i have gone to have celebrity rope doors, but the host is able to seat me, i just cant order anything
Carl's Sim Guides
https://discord.gg/mhpQZcGs - here's a link to our discord so we can talk it out. I'm not sure what could cause such a catastrophic failure without taking a look. Something is disrupting them. Some players use cc tables and these can fail, some players use moveobjects on around tables and this can cause problems. Sometimes it's a gallery restaurant that has bad data and needs replaced. Sometimes it's another mod interfering. But with all the things players can do to the game, it's nearly impossible to give advice without a talk about it.
Kira_ zama
The free version doesn't work for me either
Kira_ zama
The free version of the mod doesn't work I'm using the latest free version of the mod and version 1.103.250 of the sims and nothing happens besides the customers don't sit at the tables or eat maybe it's some mistake of mine it would be great if someone GAVE ME A SOLUTION please ;( and when a press the shift and click and nothing happens
Carl's Sim Guides
You might try replacing waiter stations, or re-placing the restaurant after having installed the mod. We don't really have control over who spawns so I'm not quite sure what could be the issue. If you'd like to help me, a copy of that save would help a lot (assuming I can reproduce it on my end). This is the type of thing that is a mystery until I can get my hands on it, so if you want to pop in to https://discord.gg/tt7ZMDJt we can help you upload your save to the bug-reports channel :)
Angel
Hello! I just wanted to let you know I'm experiencing a problem with restaurants where the waiter won't show up with fame opted out so I can't order a meal for my sims, but when I remove dine out reloaded v3.38 it the waiters automatically spawn upon relaunching the game. When I have the fame setting on like before the previous patch with dine out reloaded installed, the waiters spawn. Is there a setting in the mod that needs to be unchecked?
Carl's Sim Guides
Oof. I screwed up, sorry. I just put out a fix for this! I made a mistake while flipping over to the new methods we need after this patch.
TTra
Hello, I'm having a problem with the mod, since the last mod update (V3.37), I'm not able to play with my sims. I checked if I have the right version and if I downloaded it correctly but neither seems to cause problems. If it's possible, could anyone help me?
Vixen B
Hi Carl. Thanks for the great mod. Ive just downloaded it but i'm having an issue with my sim (the chef) not finishing cooking any meals. I can see from the cooking progress bar when she is ment to finish but she just starts over again. Any help or advice would be great. I have no other mods or cc in my game at the moment. Thanks again.
Shanynn Williams
Does this mod mess up my players going to a restaurant as a guest? They arent able to dine in now
Maria Dewi
When the v4 freeee???
Carl's Sim Guides
Thanks for lending me a hand Nevaeh! also it's mostly used for the sous chef system but it will try to stop npc chefs claiming that station too :)
Nevaeh Hayes
Your Sim can prepare meals just like the Chefs you hired and the waiter staff will take it to the customers. Hoped this helped explain it.
Ashley
So sorry to ask, but what does "player chef station mean" ?
lenn bouwens
hey carl a youtuber who i follow downloaded your mod so she could cook with her sim herself in her reastaurant. i would like this mod too but i see 2 versions listed a paid version and a free version i downloaded the free version but it doesn't do anything do you have to have the paid version to be able to do what the youtuber can? greetings lenn
Carl's Sim Guides
This is actually one of the things I'm working on in v4.0 in that Sims are less able to go off and do other random things. If a restaurant is "pure" it's much more stable but then the game throws out objects like this. I have to remove them one by one. I actually ended up finding a way to block all those behaviors at once at least in the "eat food" and "wait on food" states.
Marie
Thanks for the reply! I don't have discord but i have a ton of mods, I'm thinking it's interfering with mccc or WW perhaps. Those are usually the culprits. But there's also an obsession with playing in puddles and having mud fights so that's not helping either! They keep wanting to do that.
Carl's Sim Guides
Sorry, if i miss email even one day I fail to see some messages in time to be helpful. I definitely updated for the For Rent pack but not having it should not prevent it from working unless the Sims 4 version is super out of date.
Carl's Sim Guides
Hm. Is it possible they are doing something else, such as talking when they should be eating? This is something I was working on. In the game it seems they do not prioritize eating nearly as much as they should and if a person's pc is a bit slower it can take time to clear the queue. You can join my discord if you'd like to talk it out with me! https://discord.gg/g4v6WTK6
Marie
I can't seem to have anyone eat food, they order, the food comes, no money is paid, no eating occurs
Hantamago
Try this: Uncheck 'Opt out of Fame' in the pack settings. It worked for me even with the mod installed.
Sims-Towny
Hi, i have the mod installed. And i have that issue.
lia
Hello, it's me again and I solved my problem. My problem was that I didn't have the mod installed... I don't know why lmao, I remember I had it installed a week ago, but anyway. I hope this helps :)
lia
yeah i have the exact same problem :(
Rolenzzz
hi Carl, the mod isn't working in my game. Is it because it's updated to be compatible with the latest pack: For Rent?.. My game isn't still updated to the latest pack... Is that why it didn't work?

Doesn't instructions literally say "unzip to mods folder"? I imagine, because it says to put it in your mods folder, you should try putting it in your mods folder.
MadSweetpeas
Does this mod allow us to pick which sims are our employees?
Sims-Towny
Hi Carl, i really love you're mod and i always use it in my game. But the mod isnt working. When i go to a restaurant there is no staff working so i can't request a tablet or make a order to eat. Can you please help me?
I'm a ghost
I literally had to pay a membership so I could comment though.. also script mods are definitely turned on. Everything was turned on, I'm certain of that. Was I supposed to put it in my mod folder or use vortex?
Carl's Sim Guides
I sent you a refund as it seems Patreon made it such that "only paid members can comment".... not intended by me, so I fixed it and sent the refund :) Sorry bout that.
Carl's Sim Guides
Having the mod installed in the right place and with script mods turned on in options, it should just work. Testingcheats on is necessary to see the options menu. I'm not sure what you mean by having to pay to ask for help as this post is open to the pubic and unlocked. The only instructions as for most mods are "Instructions: Unzip to your Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods folder. Ensure Script Mods are turned on in Game Options > Other" The download link is at the bottom of the post (Carl_DineOut_Reloaded_v3.35.zip)
I'm a ghost
This is absolutely ridiculous. I shouldn't have to pay just so I can comment here. Your mod isn't working. There's no instructions on how to download it that I can see. I tried doing Testingcheats and clicking the ground, and NOTHING happens! Why isn't it working? Please tell me what I did wrong because I'm getting very angry. I shouldn't have to pay just to ask for help. Sorry if I'm being a jerk. I'm sorry.
daluved1
That makes a lot of sense! Thanks!
Laurel Samford
Thanks Carl! You are the best!
Carl's Sim Guides
So at times, it can come down to not having enough cooking speed (more individual chefs will help in the next update) or having too many tables, as well! It's usually that the player has over-extended past their ability to serve customers. When I investigate this bug, the orders are there just backed up. It does do them first-come first-serve so it's not surprising to me that it happens only later in a service.
daluved1
Greetings! I absolutely love this mod but I'm having an issue where occasionally a table's order will get lost in limbo and the chefs will fail to cook the meal, leaving the sims sitting at the table until they get angry enough to leave from the wait. This usually starts to happen after the restaurant has been open for more than 8+ in-game hours. A work-around that I found to avoid this glitch was to have an additional chef station set as a player chef station, but this may simply have been a lucky fluke when I play tested this in my sim's restaurant.
Laurel Samford
Thanks for the update, Carl! Happy Holidays! 🎄
Carl's Sim Guides
The mod has everything in one go. Don't worry about the owner side if you dont want it, it won't run.
Dark Angel
Is this mod just for people who want to play as the restaurant owner? Or does this still have the same aspects of what Dine Out Reloaded fixed to where you can use the restaurants again and not spend 24 hours trying to go to dinner? I don't want to own the restaurant, just want to be able to eat at them? Or is the original mod still available?
Amber Rose
Will this be updated for the new horse patch?
Tengericsillag
Could you please add No Kneel and No Dancing to Wallspeakers in Restaurant into your mod? 🥺
BlackAFSims
I still appreciate the response! Thank you
Carl's Sim Guides
Even if my answer is late I want to address it. Sims AI is difficult to wrangle. I have literally blocked certain actions like sitting on the floor cross-legged. I'm not sure if there is another type here that needs blocked. But it's difficult to restrict all the weird things that Sims might do.
Carl's Sim Guides
I know this comes late, but no it's not allowing players to do this atm.
BlackAFSims
does your mod allow me to do carry out? to be able to dine in and put food in my inventory or order to go ?
Nicky
will it be fixed or updated? All sims are sitting on their knees to talk to each other then get back to eat on tables.
DarlingAnon
I would love to be able to hire teens as wait staff. I was using the mod by c821118 to enable that but I stopped using it because it almost certainly conflicts with yours. Is it possible that feature could be added in a future update?
let us know if you need some vanilla testing (with growing together) testers
Carl's Sim Guides
Players have reported some issues, but I'm unable to reproduce them. Growing Together did not break DO Reloaded. I don't know if some players might have mod incompatibility issues or some setting is bugged, but my testing is coming out fine for the mod.
Carl's Sim Guides
To answer the question, even if late... it didn't "Break" but some players are saying it's not as smooth since then.
Carl's Sim Guides
I didn't see this comment until now. I'm having a look to see what might be up. I know it's a bit late to respond to you but want others to know I am def investigating.
Robby Worthington
Definately not running well since baby update and growing together.
Shannon Rose Wiley
did this mod break during the baby update patch?
Katana Fatale
As of now its super buggy. It effects serving dinner or getting left overs from home. Anyone else experience this? Theres no issue with the fridge when I remove the mod.

Fix your Mod please. No waiters, no food.

So I ended up “fixing” it. I deleted the mod and reinstalled it. I’m on a mac so I had to put it in the trash first, get the zipped folder from the trash and then unzip it and put it in my mod folder. That did the trick
Dawn Carter
Ive had that issue too!
Dawn Carter
PLEASE HELP. My Sim is not able to take orders. I click the option but nothing happens. Sometimes I can take 2 orders, then it stops working again.
Mr Star
you need to delete back your mod and have this mod again, as the setting only come after you play.
Mr Star
Edit: I remove my mod and download this mod again, Not replacing, as the setting comes after playing.
Mr Star
i know the problem, if you want chef to be NPC then make sure u turn off sous chef and unset as main chef station, as it is for your sims to be a chef only. NPC will be gone if there is no empty chef station for them as their usual chef station is set for your sims to be chef. So make sure to unset as main station so NPC can be chef
amoni
I've been having issues with the food not appearing on the table. When I deleted the mod, it worked again and all restaurant actions resumed as normal. Can this be an installing issue?
Take the files within the folder out, and put those into the mod folder.

did you solve this? i have the same issue!

Is it possible to fix the bug where every time you click on Restaurant Settings, the set outfits of the waiters, hosts, and chef all reset to the default? It's incredibly annoying to me.

is this affecting other business types? i havent been able to properly run a vet since updating to 3.1?

Help: Chefs are spawning at the restaurant, for a second and then disappears. So food isn't getting cooked.

Thank you for an amazing mod! :) just wanted to find out if I have a conflicting mod or if there’s a glitch. After I open restaurant, all goes well then the waiters go to chef station to pick up order and it disappears on chef station kind of like its being served there, sometimes it does that at the diners table but no meal appears? The customers start getting grumpy and all leave

Correction: It appears the bug is that the sims doesn’t appear to stop ordering and actually pay. If I continue to take order, they’re happy but they never leave 😂
CSteak
Thanks very much for all the work on this Carl! I’m enjoying operating Dine Out more with this. I’m having an issue with 3.03 where diners star rating dropped rapidly mid-dinner due to wait times but there’s no action that I can do, e.g. no orders to take/food to make. Is this a known bug?

Naja Højholt
Sooo I have an issue where my sims wont sit down when at a restaurant, like they won't be seated at all no matter what I do. I can't gurantee that it's this mod causing the issue, but it might be. Just a head's up <3

also should say i'm still on the previous version of the game - not the latest for HSY

me also. used it yesterday and left after 3 hrs cus my sims didn't get their meal still :/
MsYouniquee
Is this mod currently okay to use with newest patch?
Cynquilla
Play testing this mod again; updated it, cleared caches, etc. But my Sim NEVER gets her order :( Waiters are cleaning up messes, take other Sims' orders and fill them. But my Sim just patiently waits in her seat. The chef is doing their chefly animations, but not actually cooking anything... help me Carl!
Sims Storyteller
For some reason, not only am I getting super clumsy waiters, I never get my food order. Also the waiters aren't wearing the outfits I picked out for them either. When I took the mod out, everything worked fine. Does this need an update due to the werewolf patch?
Aiden Thomas
I am also encountering this problem. It appears Chefs are the only ones affected.
chealsea
I'm having trouble with this mod. When it is in my game the chefs will not spawn. I redownloaded it several times, cleared my cache, and took out all other mods other than this one and it still happens. I don't know if I'm the only one, just wanted to report :(
Lois Ouellette
Why? I’ve used your mods since they were introduced and no issues. I added the updated better game play and this🤷🏻♀️
Carl's Sim Guides
Sorry I think we are straight up incompatible.

Thank you Carl! Seems to have fixed it for me!! Yay my sims can go out to eat now ☺️

Downloading the new zip worked as the chefs were present as soon as the lot loaded. Thank you!
Carl's Sim Guides
Just caught your comment coming back to try to fix a bug! I'm really happy it worked out, sorry I'm so slow at responding!
Carl's Sim Guides
I'm sorry for the issues with this. I just got more reports and it caught my attention. I'm curious if downloading the new zip will work. Sometimes browsers break my files. On my test just now, everything was wonderful.
Carl's Sim Guides
WWM_ and Naja, could you guys attempt downloading the zip file I just uploaded? I just tested the mod and everything is still working great. I think it's possible your browsers have messed with my files. This has happened numerous times where having someone use save as fixed it, but zipping them seems to be the solution to ensure nothing bad happens during the save process.
WWM_
I'm getting this same issue. I had to take the mod out :(
Naja Højholt
Hey Carl! I have had this mod before and I loved it cause it completely fixed DO! But I've updated the mod a few days ago and it hasn't been working ever since. It's weird cause the chef shows up and everyone but my sim gets their food, and quick too! It's so strange! I have tried the save as method of installing the mod, but with no luck unfortunately. I did save as to my downloads folder and copied them to the DO Reloaded folder (in my mods folder). I must've done something wrong? Thank you for creating awesome mods!
Celeste
Hello! I have downloaded this mod with and without GO and the chefs are still failing to spawn on the lot. It is not player owned.
Cindy aNGrYGiRL
NGL I was skeptical. Nothing I've found has ever fixed this train wreck of a pack. BUT...yeah. My sims just went to a restaurant and had a nice meal. This alone was worth the sub. Thank you.
Jasmine Woods
Does this help with sims sitting? My sims still keep getting up and talking to sims and singing during the dinning even with this mod in.
Alecia Alecia
Great mod, but for Some reason all the food in my fridge spoils like it’s on a counter. Any idea why this would happen?
Kathryn Gordon
Do I download this even if I download the bigger more all inclusive one?
Robert Walker
Cool, thank u!!!
Carl's Sim Guides
Yep, among many others :)
Robert Walker
In my game the Chef will stay outside of the restaurant (on the sidewalk) and stay there until a few sim minutes than go to the kitchen and cook. Does this mod fix that issue?
RedHawk504
I followed all the steps. My Sim does eat and drink. Other Sims order food and drink but do not eat or drink it. I have no idea what the problem could be? Maybe you have a solution?
Carl's Sim Guides
It could be that your browser corrupted the files. This isn't right at all, so try right-clicking the files and choosing save as.
RedHawk504
I have the script and package in the mod folder. And in the game options I have the necessary options turned on. But unfortunately I have a problem. The cooks keep standing outside and the waitresses keep standing still with dirty plates. I have no other mods that conflict with this mod. Is this problem known, if so. Is there already a solution?
Carl's Sim Guides
I'm getting away from this and will make some clarifications. DO Reloaded being split off is one of the big steps toward that. I won't be overlapping them like that any more. If I suspect people will want it as a standalone, it will be one from the get-go.
KittyBiscuits
Thank you so much!
Kel Kendrick
Hi Carl can you clarify your list of mods in one post? It is really confusing what is separate and what is already in your All In One type mod.

make sure that script mods are enabled in game settings, and that both the package and script files are in your mods folder no more than one folder deep

the burglars are still pretty buggy for me, and so far, no robbery has gone smoothly but then, i suppose that's good lol.

Okay, first thanks again! I went back and re-read every single word but much more carefully, and I believe the part I missed was that these fixes get integrated into the "gameplay overhaul" mod sometimes, or maybe just over time, but either way, thanks for responding, and I think I got it! Thank goodness because these EA bugs are just ... just ... like, I dunno. So, again, thank you for being someone who takes the time to fix the game for us. Much love.

Sorry that image is just a promo if I say it is standalone you can use it alone but watch for conflicts in the descriptions of the mods. No need to use this with the full game play overhaul it is part of it. What I will do is begin to make some standalone versions for people that want to mix and match while GO is most of what I offer.

Thank you very much for the hard work on all these fixes, as they are truly needed. I do have to say that I remain immensely confused by which mods can be mixed and combined. They all seem to begin with "gameplay overhaul" in the title, so I'm not sure which files are considered the "variants" of the "gameplay overhaul" to avoid conflicts. If they all start with the title "gameplay overhaul," then are they all "variants" of the gameplay overhaul? Is there a thread that lists out the mods that can or cannot be used together?
