A tutorial on how to change the fridge menu
Hello dear community!
I love cooking, so I've downloaded a ton of custom foods for my Sims over the years.
My Sims' fridge menu is a cluttered nightmare to navigate.
I have the latest version of SimPE and already translated some dishes' names into my language, thanks to Bienchen83's tutorial.
I need a tutorial that tells me how to organize the fridge menu in SimPE, but I couldn't find one. (Maybe I suck at googleing)
IF a tutorial exists, a link to it would be much appreciated.
IF it doesn't exist yet, and you write one, my gratitude will follow you forever. :lovestruc

ok so it will either be in "Text List - Text List" or "Text List - whatever the name of the food is"



To get rid of the annoying extra menus you just have change these back to what they should be.

Have Dinner
Have Lunch
Have Breakfast
Serve Dinner
Serve Lunch
Serve Breakfast

Works like a charm.
Didn't have time to get started until now, but I renamed a few and it works perfectly!
Thank you very much!

Don't suppose you know how to fix the blank menus in OFB Make or Make Many for some custom foods? Where the food name shows up properly under Serve or Have, but there's no text in the OFB menu.

No, I don't know how to change that, sorry.

For the blank menus, does the name of the food appear in the Catalog Description of the package?

That way I could edit any food name which change appeared in-game, so maybe there is nothing written in your food's Catalog Description. The Have Dinner.../(food) et cetera doesn't use the Catatlog Description.

Since I'm completely reorganizing my fridge menu, can anybody tell me how to get the data of the default foods?
I have Bienchens83' "belegte Brote" and want to put the default "sandwiches" in a submenu with them.

Edit: Figured it out. Have a nice weekend!

Thanks. The ones that weren't showing up had their catalogue descriptions in Japanese, so the game obviously wasn't picking them up.
