cosmic dancer Test Subject Join Date: Dec 2005 Posts: 9	Hi! It's great that it is now possible to add custom outfits to careers, but I'd like to use some of the existing ones as well. Does anyone happen to have a list of what is what? For instance, I don't know what 'bluescrubs' and 'lowrank' are. Thanks!

sbz Test Subject Join Date: Jan 2005 Posts: 2	This is probably going to end up being a really dumb question, but here it goes. I started making a career and I want to close out the program to come back to it later. I close the career editor fine. I go to close SimPE and it says "Do you want to save the changes you made to the package?" Of course, I say Yes. But it doesn't do anything. That little pop up disappears and SimPE is still open. What the heck and I missing?

tacadv Test Subject Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 6	I used bidou's career editor to make my career. It shows up in-game, but no matter what lvl it says you're hiring in at, you always start at the same lvl. Ex: you hire on at lvl 1, but when you check your job preformance, it shows your at lvl 4 and you've not been to work yet. This is my first attempt at a custom career. Any help would be grateful. Thanks.

SassyTeffie Lab Assistant Join Date: Jan 2006 Posts: 64 Thanks: 2958 in 3 Posts 8 Achievements	Ok...I created a new career and it shows up in my game (it was created off of the Show Biz career). It doesn't overwrite anything. However, when I tell my Sim to take the job I get an error message (An error occurred in object "N001_User00012_Nina" #210, Error: You sent me a crappy GUID, please fix it.). I have tried changing the GUID yet again and I still get this message. Now, the Sim will still be put on the career path, but when she gets home and gets promoted I get the same error message, no pop up box, and the career changes, but it doesn't indicate that. Also, my custom outfit is not showing up. Please help!

SassyTeffie, do you mind posting up the file? I find error messages difficult to deal with, and prefer the career in front of me to work out the problem.

nhsl5199 Test Subject Join Date: Oct 2004 Posts: 12	SuperFly, can you explain to me about the confusing money reward, such as what value should be put in. E.g.: When I put 2000 it give my sim �2 million. Then, sometimes I want to give my sim only �500, and sometimes I want to give �500,000, which value should I put? I know I cannot exceed the 32767. Please help....
