Sims 4 Blast From the Past: Studying Historical Displays

Week 2 of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is in full swing, challenging players to embark on a thrilling journey across the game's map to unravel a captivating mystery. However, a seemingly simple task is proving to be a hurdle for many. Here's a detailed guide on how to study a Historical Display in *The Sims 4* during this exciting event.

Where To Find a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

One of the quests in Week 2 of the Blast from the Past event requires you to study a Historical Display at a museum. If you're a seasoned *The Sims 4* player, you're likely familiar with the locations of these cultural landmarks. For newcomers, simply open your map and look for a building marked with an icon featuring pillars. The most convenient museums to visit are Municipal Muses in Willow Creek and The Future’s Past in Oasis Springs, as they are strategically located near other tasks in the event.

How To Study a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event

Upon arriving at a museum, it's time to dive into the experience. Both paintings and sculptures qualify as Historical Displays in *The Sims 4*. Choose the one that piques your interest, click on it, and select the "View" option. The appearance of the Emit icon will confirm that you've successfully completed the challenge.

Despite the apparent simplicity of this task, numerous players are encountering difficulties. It appears that certain mods are interfering with the functionality of the View button, preventing players from studying the displays. Some have resorted to removing all mods in an attempt to progress, though not always with success. It's hoped that EA is addressing this issue swiftly. In the meantime, the best strategy is to try studying as many items as possible across multiple museums.
