I've made a few in my own game, but they're really not great so I don't upload. :P

Chance cards are quite possibly the most fun part! I find the job level titles and descriptions harder.

this guide is cool, in 13 minutes I made a career. The chance cards are kind of tired, but I put some imagination, thanks to all.

This is a FANTASTIC tutorial. Thank-you so much for helping all of us out. I haven't tried it yet because I'm doing schoolwork at the moment, but I'm definetly going to try it soon. I can't wait to get started. It seems very time-consuming but I can do anything as long as I have my ipod XD lol. Thanks for this!

okay, I'd rather my career not overwrite any of the existing ones, but your link to that particular tutorial doesn't work. it might just be my computer, but I thought you should know, just in case.

Under Resource Tree, go to "Object Data." Then click the only item in the Resource List. There should be on the left hand side something about GUIDs. Check "update all MMATs" and click "get GUID." Register for yourself and then give it a name, then click "Register Objects." Finally, click the "Update" button next to the text "MMATs and commit."

There you have it! No more overwrite. =)

what do you mean by each description needs a title and a short description?
how can a description need a description? do you mean every description needs a title?

Hi!

I have a question, because I was filling in the chance cards and I'm short spaces for my level 10 career. How is this possible?

Jodi, this is a mistake in the attached package file. Just add one yourself.

I had this problem earlier, too. I just downloaded SimPE again and I had no problems after that.

Anyway, I just want to thank thee creator of this thread. I had the idea late last night to create a career based on the movie Repo! The Genetic Opera, and I just finished it. All 10 chance cards, descriptions, job names, etc. I had a lot of fun...I love that movie. I created a new Simmie just to test it out named Jason and she's already on level 2. I haven't had any problems with promotions or whatnot, so IDK if the problems were resolved from two years ago or so.

The only thing my career doesn't have are custom uniforms, because I can find literally no clothes that even remotely resemble what they wear in this movie (some of Paris Hilton's outfits excepted), so my Simmie just has to wear her normal clothes. Anyhow, thank you so much!

Ask me about my Luigi Largo Sim.
I'll tell you about the Satanic snowman he made in college. And how he loves cleaning the toilet.

Hey Emma,
I've been following your tutorial on custom careers and just have a quick question. I manged to reach the end of the tutorial, my first test (where I checked the chance cards and description were sucessful.) My sims can obtain the job, and go to it, but anytime they are promoted or try to take the job I get an error message;

An error occured in object "N004_User 00352 - Testing" #157
You sent me a crappy GUID. Please fix it. The stack trace is saved in "C:/ Documents/ EA Games/ The Sims 2/ Logs/ object error - N004_t3671.txt."

I'm gussing this might have to do with the GUID number, but I believe that I followed Superfly's tutorial on that well. Anyway, any help would be much appreciated. I see that you wrote this tutorial years ago and may no longer be interested in answeing questions.

Thanks again!

Default Thanks for your help!
I'm just getting brave enough to attempt some customizing and have been thinking about a new career as my first challenge.

Just like the career I'm building, I'm better at working with people than computers, so I'm sure I'll be asking lots of questions as I go along.

Just a few KUDOS....

1st--awesome job on the tutorial...actually pretty easy for the computer illiterate.

2nd--I want to back up the statement that details and complete chance cards are really important to a career. It only took me a day to write all mine, but after working in the career in real life for 8 years, I had a lot of actual experience to pull from. I hope it makes it more fun and interesting for those who download the career.

3rd--Thanks to everyone who, just like me, feel really ditzy when it comes to customizing and taking the time to ask questions. All of them were helpful and I was able to overcome some of my problems just by reviewing the thread...errrr...at least most of it

EVERYONE--Have fun with your careers!!!

hiya guys - back from a looooong sims 2 break, can anyone using this tutorial with eps later than pets let me know if its all still as intended - i'm planning to redo the screenies with the new SimPE ones to make it a little easier to follow.
I've found a few things which seem a bit glitchy - will look into them, few things i always intended to fix but never got around to >.< watch this space.

sorry not about much anymore

Very, very thanks for the tutorial, Emma Barrett!! I was searching all over for this tutorial (not just MTS, the whole web)! Now I can finally make my dream carrer; "Sim Modder" (still making... I'll upload it (maybe ))...
Oh, I can't wait to start SimPE and make my carrer! Thanks again!
