The fridge of eternal stench
HappilyDeranged:
My One Fambly seems to be cursed. For several sim weeks, their fridge has been stinky and uncleanable. Every time a sim goes to clean out the bad food, the game crashes. I've been trying to solve this problem myself for a while. Things I've tried:
-Replacing the fridge (of course)
-Deleting everything from the fridge
-Moving to a new lot
-Deleting everything from the fridge, selling the fridge, then moving to a new lot and buying a new fridge. As soon as I buy the new fridge, the dreaded stink cloud is there.
This only happens with one family, fridges in other households seem fine. The stink cloud doesn't really bother me, but my family has become rather large and it's annoying to have to keep them all constantly busy so they don't autonomously clean out the fridge and crash the game. The only CC I have installed is the Awesomemod, and the problem was around before I downloaded it. I've looked around at a few different message boards and haven't seen anyone else complaining about this problem. Any suggestions?
Madame Mim:
The fridge is meerly a portal to the other realm where food is kept (kind of like how they pull things out of their arses). Obviously if you have been in there and deleted everything manually you have something invsible and icky in there.
Move in a townie and then move everybody but the townie out. I think the townie will be left with the fridge contents and your Sims can go on with their lives.

This is an hilariously devious solution, which I must applaud.
As for a more boring possible solution, have you tried hiring a maid? I can't remember if they normally clean out the refrigerators, but it's worth a try. Alternatively, you can try switching active households and then having your new sim visit the house with offending fridge to see if your original sim cleans it up on their own.

I have tried hiring a maid, and she went straight for the fridge and made the game crash. I haven't tried visiting with another sim, but I'd venture a guess that the game would still crash because of the cursed fridge no matter who was trying to clean it out. This evening I will try to transfer the curse to a townie as suggested, though I kind of hate to because I just got done settling my family into the new house.
mindtempest:
Does attempting to open the fridge and manually moving them to the Sim's inventory work?
