I could be wrong, but I think your fix (the Maxiscakesonly fix) removed the Maxis birthday cake from my game when I deleted some content (presumably from Celebration stuff, which I don't have) that it wouldn't load.

I also can't serve food or do the 'grab a plate' action. The option is listed, but nothing happens. I can only think of this download as the possible cause, but I haven't tried loading the game after removing it yet.

Thanks anyway.

Hooray! Apart from this useful increase in the capabilities of the food rack, I have finally found out what it is supposed to do in the game, apart from wasting space as a decoration with little-to-no Environment score!

oh how cool i usually use windkeepers space savers on let them set on top of the OFB Decra-Chill Food Display but this mod gives me another way

The Maxis Cakes Only version enables only seven Celebration cakes to be placed in food display, and nothing else. If you don't have Celebration SP, this version will be entirely pointless.
Where did you put this fix? If you put it into the \TSData\Res\Catalog\Bins folder, the delete button in the object catalog should have been disabled, preventing accidental deletion of Maxis objects. I had this happened to me a couple of times, back when I didn't know about overrides folder. The "deleted" Maxis objects were back in game when I restarted the game.

I had no problem in serving food or grabbing plates with this fix installed. I'm not sure if it may cause a problem in some EP/SP combination.

I posted an alternate NoPreventPlacement version for the people that have OFB but do not have Celebration SP.

This was very needed, Lord Darcy I resorted to use fake decra-chill but i can now go back to the real one! Thank you for that mod!

If i understand correctly, it only affects the decrachill, but will it clash with Numenor's 'Place custom content on OFB shelves' global mod? I'm already using that mod to be able to sell all custom content & since it's a global mod i'm a bit worried...?

It won't clash with Numenor's mod. You still need Numenor's mod to sell custom objects that aren't "OFB-Ready", be it on Decra-Chill or on regular shelves. In "No Prevent Placement" version, I only removed the "discrimination" of Decra-Chill, making it accept the same kind of objects as regular OFB shelves. If a custom object cannot be placed on regular OFB shelves without help of Numenor's mod in the first place, it can't be placed in Decra-Chill either.
