While you posted the forensic analyst levels, I do know that Sims in the special agent branch are specifically hardcoded to wear a different random outfit to work every day and completely ignore any uniform code from levels 6-9.

Also, I gather that you edited the XML directly in GameplayData.package? Don't do that. Follow this tutorial (http://modthesims.info/wiki.php?title=Tutorial:Sims_3_XML_Tuning_Modding) and make a separate mod pacakge. NEVER edit the game files directly.

Finally sometimes outfit changes aren't applied directly to existing sims. Get other Sims to apply to the career and see if they get the changes. You may have to wait until they get promoted.

Thanks it worked! :) I followed your second sentence that I made seperate package for career outfit and putted it into mod\package folder.Thanks a lot.
