I can't cook Ambrosia.
« on: January 04, 2016, 03:35:07 AM »
I've just read the recipe for Ambrosia. I have a mod that lets me buy life fruit and deathfish at the store. There is 100 of each of the two ingredients in my fridge right now ... yet the option to cook Ambrosia doesn't appear.

I've tried "have lunch." I've tried "serve lunch." I've tried "serve dessert." It's not in any of the menus, and this site's guide says that I can cook it 24/7, regardless of hour, so that can't be the problem.

At first, I thought I needed them to be perfect quality. So I set my chef to clone life fruit and death fish (she's a master of science), in hopes of getting said perfect ingredients.  But then I re-read this site's guide, here ...

http://www.carls-sims-3-guide.com/skills/cooking/ambrosia.php

And it only said the ingredients SHOULD be perfect quality, not that it MUST be perfect quality.

What gives?

Is your sim's cooking skill at level 10?  I think that's required to cook it

Have you tried putting the ingredients in your sims inventory? If that doesn't work i don't know what else you could try

I think that you need to have the deathfish/life fruit in your sim's personal inventory, not the fridge. I'm sure that's how I've always gotten the ambrosia recipe to work for me.

I also believe that it is 'Have breakfast/brunch/lunch/dinner', as Ambrosia doesn't allow you to make group servings of it, only a single serving.

If having the ingredients in your sim's personal inventory doesn't work, maybe try to catch deathfish/grow life fruit yourself. There should be mods to enable you to raise the two skills to the required levels.

On occasions, Ambrosia may not be in the list of meals in "Have Breakfast/Lunch/Dinner", in which case you'll likely need to hit the More... button 1 or 2 times to find it.
