Ever since I installed SN and patched up, my butler no longer cooks group meals. I have a mod where he only cooks if I ask him to, but if I ask him to cook he only cooks a single meal. This is very annoying because I play several wealthy households with butlers, and most of my Sims do not cook--they are too busy with other things. Now, since I have to ask the butler to cook something four or five times in a row(because most of my households have four or five Sims), I might as well have my Sims cook something themselves because it wastes so much time!

I just can't stand it all. I've tried searching for butler mods on MTS, googling them, dabbling in S3PE, even reading tutorials for how to make a mod with this functionality but I don't understand it at all. Please, please, is there a mod like this out there, anywhere? Or if someone knows how to make a mod like this but can't/don't want to do it themselves, can they give me pointers on how to do it myself?? That's how desperate I am. PLEASE AND THANK YOU.

I REALLY want this too!

Hi!
my butler also doesn't cook. He only cooks if asked and only single servings as well. He won't bother if my sims would starve.
Also, does anyone know if there's a mod that enables you to actually select a shower for the butler to use, so he doesn't use the masters bathroom?
Oh and it all started with the SN patch.

Both hubby & I have exact same issue, just as described above and it began with Supernatural. We've tested in a new neighborhoods with new Sims and new butlers - having removed ALL of our mods.

The problem remains.

The Butler won't cook group meals, and when asked, will prepare one portion. Please note that my hubby & I both use different machines WITH different OS'es. So you got me folks - seriously. The only thing I can think of at all at this point is that somehow, some of our butler XMLs got hosed when SN came out. Where to get a fresh XML - without re-installing - I have no idea. And please understand that I am probably completely wrong - that is a truly ignorant guess regarding the cause of the issue.

Sorry folks, I'm QA not Dev. All I can say is the problem is reproducible.

Has anyone found a solution to this?

I'll just do a smal bump, please mind about me.
