Week 2 of the Blast from the Past event in *The Sims 4* is in full swing, sending players on a thrilling journey across the map to unravel the mystery. However, a seemingly simple task is proving to be a significant hurdle for many. Here’s your guide on how to study a Historical Display in *The Sims 4*.
Where To Find a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event
One of the quests in Blast from the Past Week 2 requires you to study a Historical Display at a museum. If you're a seasoned *The Sims 4* player, you likely know where to find your local museum. New players should open their map and look for a building marked with an icon featuring pillars. There are four default museums, but the best two to visit are Municipal Muses in Willow Creek and The Future’s Past in Oasis Springs, as they are conveniently located near other tasks in the event.
How To Study a Historical Display in The Sims 4 Blast From the Past Event
Once you arrive at a museum, it's time to delve into your studies. In *The Sims 4*, both paintings and sculptures count as Historical Displays. Choose the one that piques your interest and click on it. You'll be prompted to "View" the Historical Display, and the Emit icon will confirm that you've successfully completed the challenge.
Despite the straightforward nature of the quest, numerous players are encountering issues. It appears that mods are interfering with the functionality of the "View" button, preventing players from studying Historical Displays. Some have even tried removing all mods to progress through the event, but without success. Hopefully, EA is working on a fix. In the meantime, your best bet is to try studying as many items as you can across different museums.
