Unfortunately, I can't answer in regards to technical issues with the tool itself, except to make some suggestions. You're best off posting in the Create-a-Career forum
But, there's a way to make sure the images are attached to the correct branch, and that's to check in s4pe or Sims 4 Studio that the instance numbers attached to each picture match those found in their respective branch information files. I'm best with S4S, so I'll explain it using that
1. In the DST Image line for each image, get the instance number 2 columns over.
ie. B4AD6E382153A0F4 in my example
2. Then, click on the Career Track Tuning line that is supposed to match up with that image. Look in the XML tab on the right for the line that looks like this (your numbers will be different) :
T n="icon_high_res" p="InGame\UI\Icons\Career\Career_Business_hires.png">2f7d0004:00000000:B4AD6E382153A0F4</T>
3. Make sure the instance number from the DST Image matches the instance number in that line of the XML in the appropriate Career Track Tuning line. If it doesn't, just copy and paste as necessary
It's a bit convoluted, but it works for me

It doesn't look like anything is wrong based on your images, so I'm a bit confused. Once you've created the .zip and put the files in there, you right click on it and rename it from .zip to .ts4script. Have you done that? I'm sure you must have since you've created careers already
If you have, what is happening that you feel it's not working for you? I think I need more information to be able to help

Yes, I have. I have no idea. I will make a video and show you on yt to see if you see something wrong.

Here is my video. So odd how my pto is not working, however, maybe I missed a step!

Sorry it took so long to get back to you on this. A moderator's work is never done!
Okay. At the 4 minute mark, you create a folder and put the .py and .pyc files in it before putting them in a new zip. Do you always do this? I normally put them directly into the zip. I'm wondering if this may be the issue. Instead of missing a step, you've made an extra one with the folder. Do you see what I mean?
Try making the zip first, empty, then add the .py and .pyc files to it directly, then change it to a ts4script file. No folder required. This is shown in Pic 14
I'd love it if you'd keep me posted on your progress!

I Tried and no luck. Could I send you my files and you try? I sent you my Firefighter career.

I've recreated it for myself, and while doing so, noticed the steps for Python have changed! I have updated the tutorial for now.
However, the paid day off is still not working for me, either. I'm having a few glitches in my game, so there must be a conflicting mod somewhere, or there is a problem somewhere in the new updates by Neia (which I highly doubt!). I haven't truly played in quite a while, but have been attempting to do so with Island Living, which is awesome! I'm going to go through my own conflicts and test my own careers as well, as Neia has mentioned they need to be re-exported.
The good news is it's not just you, because you may have seen on the Create-a-Career forum that others are having trouble with the PTO phone option as well
In the meantime, double check your own mods for conflicts, and we'll keep an eye on the forum for any further communication regarding this.
Edit: You may also want to remove all other careers that were installed before Neia's update on June 29, 2019, and remember to replace the old Neia_Careers_Commons.package with the new one. I'm going to retest your FF career that I recreated with all other cc careers removed, and I'll update this post with the results
And remember, PTO is earned, so the Sim needs to work a few days to be able to use this option.

Results are in! I re-exported my Event Planner career and did all the necessary steps. This has allowed my PTO to work as Take Vacation Day, which is the text I entered when I made the career. Here's an image:

It doesn't seem to be required anymore, that's right.
Even though you'll still get an error when doing the import procedure, the correct resulting file shows up in the pycache folder

It just has “Find a job” “Quit Job” or sometimes the negationable bonus option.
I don’t own Island Living yet if that helps any. |
It's odd, my Event Planner Career has the option after I re-exported, but I can't yet get the Airline Employee one to show. I haven't had a lot of time to investigate this, and I need to check the tool forum, maybe there's an answer over there.

@EduardoLR I'm moving the discussion here so everything is all in one place (minus the link)
Have you taken the steps described starting with 12a? There should be no issues if you follow them. 12a tells you how to make your package folder files into the required .package, skip step 12b, then step 13 details how to use Python to get the ts4script file. Be sure you have the correct version of Python as linked at the beginning of the tutorial
If after following the steps it's still not working for you, please detail what steps you took, and we'll see if something's missing.

There's only one part that's changed, that I know of, and it only removed a step from the original. Can you give me more information? I'd like to help if I can
