Update: Better Pie Menu v. 2.4.0
🕑 Added 2022-12-04 14:52:26 +0000 UTCThe new generation of Sims 4 Pie Menu! Liven up the boring original pie menus with bright new colors and organization!
=============================
Patreon Release: Dec 4, 2022
Public Release: Dec 21, 2022
=============================
â Update Notes Version 2.4.0
In this update, I've improved the following pie menus:
- Six new subcategories Body, Nature, Tech, Handiness, Music and Art in the Friendly interactions category are now available. In these thematic categories, the corresponding interactions have now been moved. Further reclassification follows in further mod versions.
- I also moved some interactions from the Wicked Whims and Wonderful Whims mods into my new category structure (on the PC and in the friendly interactions).
- The "Fill out reports" interaction for Business Career on PC has been moved from Web to Career.
- Interactions with computer glasses were structured and ordered.
- Other rather very small improvements that you probably won't notice right away.
The following changes have also been made:
- Code optimization using SCUMBUMBO's Tuning Error Notifier is intended to make the mod's work faster because some small unnecessary lines of code have been deleted and optimized.
âïž Main Mod Description
This mod creates a better overview in the pie menu structure for some objects in the game, e.g. sim, computer, TV, stereo, fridge, stove, mirror etc... The main goal is to make the search faster with suitable icons. In addition, the priority of unimportant folders has been decreased and the priority of the important folder has been increased instead. A few new overcategories were also created and the sub-folders reorganized.
This mod only overwrites the so-called Pie Menu Category Tuning of some menu categories. Not a single interaction tuning was overwritten! The restructuring is done via a script, so you need to allow scripting in your game settings. Conflicts can only arise with the same mods that also modify the category tuning of the pie menu or also arrange interactions differently through scripts.

đš Compatibility Issues
The following mods have unresolvable compatibility issues that cause in-game error messages:
- Less Main Pie Clutter by Lumpinou
The following mods do not have any compatibility issues with Better Pie Menu Mod, but will cause the menus to look different than intended:
- Better Meal Time Menu by LittleMsSam (on the kitchen appliances);
- Complete Cooking Overhaul by Srslysims (on the kitchen appliances);
- Meaningful Stories by roBurky (on computers and refrigerator);
- Plumfruit by Arnie (on computers and tablets);
- Realistic Cooking Mod by Somik and Severinka (on fridge).
âïž Problems with this mod
Problem: Since I got the mod, I can't do anything with the computer or on other objects anymore. The menu has disappeared. If I click on the object, then everything hangs and then nothing happens.
Answer: The problem can occur when my mod conflicts with another one. This can only be the mods that change the EA Pie menus. Let me know what mod it conflicts with and I'll try to resolve it! The conflicts cannot be foreseen, but they can be repaired!
đŻ Translations
The mod only uses ready-made strigs from the game, so no translations are necessary. The new pie menus are immediately available in all languages!

The two Have/Serve menus have been moved to a new folder on the fridge by BPM. If the interactions disappear completely, I can't imagine that causing the BPM mod. Which cooking mods do you have installed?
âą Withered Souls âą
I am not sure what causes it, The only other mod i can think of changing the pie menu is out my folder atm bc I am trouble shooting: whenever I add Better Pie menu (both official and early release, tried updating it) the fridge/oven doesnt longer have the "have/serve" option, causing sims to also no longer be able to automatically feed themselves / automatically cook
