Hi! This is my first time using your mod and I liked the new degrees. As a suggestion, I think it would be good if you added what skills are needed for each degree since not everyone has all the expansions/packs and we choose degrees that will ultimately lead us to nothing more than a terrible F

Thanks for update.

Akenn Art

Yeah, I noticed that too.

Hi, the google drive links arent working in this post

Jordan

I'll check, they probably got unlinked because I edited the post from mobile.

Skylar Gill

hi im not sure if its an issue on my end but the drive links for the courses cost more and higher scholarships isnt working

Rhi

Hi! I got a BE error saying that this mod is broken due to an invalid "ScienceUniversity" tuning. I'm still trying to see if it's usable even with the error, but I just wanted to let you know

Are you planning any update regarding new skills? Or other subjects - even within existing fields? It would be nice to see something thematic instead of throwing logic, charisma, and sports everywhere (bowling, baking, dancing, DJ mixing, instruments - guitar, pipe organs, flower arranging, acting, juice fizzing, rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding, cross-stitch, nectar making, gemology, romance, thanatology, pottery, tattooing, apothecary, natural living, archery, diving, origami, and enthomology - this could really nicely complement fields like nutrition & dietetics, health and fitness, chemistry, environmental science, botany and plant science, or style & fashion).

Jordan

hard to say, the homework side is entirely Maxis. Can they do homework for unmodded degrees?

Arianna Mota

hi, I'm trying to make my sim do his homework and it keeps cancelling out. any idea why?

Jordan

That sometimes happens when the mod is installed mid save. Use the university cheat menu to enroll, that one rerolls the acceptance loot which is the one that isn't updating. Just opening the university selection panel from the cheats fixes it.

Perfect Waifu

Is there a list of what skills/requirements are needed for Veterinary Medicine? It's greyed out and says my sim doesn't meet the required skills for a distinguished degree. She's maxed out in veterinary skills and all the skills for the biology degree. When I try to pursue a regular Veterinary Medicine degree, it tells me it's distinguished and gives me the same message, even though it isn't. Core library is updated.

Jordan

Update the core library.

Nicole Harrison

we may need an update for the new Fairies pack. I followed the instructions but the degrees are just not showing up at all, not greyed out, missing entirely. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Jordan

They're in the new tweaks post.

Ay Sim All Day

Hi Zero :) I hope you are well. I recently deleted my mods folder and have been trying to reinstall your maxis cost more and longer university terms but can't find them anywhere. Are they discontinued?

Jordan

I usually direct people to post them on discord, I grab them from there and add them to the main mods.

aiks483

Hey, I made a Polish translation of this mod, could I upload it somehow?

Belle

hello i am having the issue where it is greyed out.

Amanda Barrington

I just had to get her to do a different course unfortunately :(

Naomii

I'm having the same problem right now. I was wondering how you were able to resolve the issue?

Dejae Yates-Dailey

So test it without the tuning file?

Amanda Barrington

Thanks for this! It might be helpful to put something about which packs are needed for which degrees because it isn’t entirely clear! :)

Jordan

Test the mod alone with the core library.

Jordan

The two skills for that degree are logic and herbalism. If you don't have OR one of the skills will not show up causing that issue.

Dejae Yates-Dailey

Hi, when I try to enroll my sim into one of the degrees it doesn’t show up on the school tab and just takes my money for the class, I have the main package and the tuning file in my mods folder along with the lot 51

Amanda Barrington

Hi! My sim was doing Chemistry and one of the courses (I think chemistry and kinetics) does not have a skill attached to it, so she got an F on the course. I got her to redo it in the new term and same thing happened

dipsiesnows

Hi! Will you be making the custom degree creation file available at some point for creating more degree?

Lily N. Bstn

all custom degree are unavailable to me, and i tried a lot to make it work. On one of the comment, i think i remember you suggesting to clear the cache or something ? i think the person said it didn't work for them, but ill try it. How i do that ? clear cache from what ? but i have to report it to you, in case clearing the cache wont work

Jordan

That's the latest version yes. I never had that problem in my own game so I have no idea how to help you.

shatinnsims

I have v.1.12. released oct 16.

Jordan

Are you sure you have the latest version of the core library?

Zero_

It's a conflict with anotherod overriding the arts and science university tuning.

shatinnsims

core+main mod=resets sim / core+main mod+ea tuning=greyed out / core+main mod+cost more tuning=greyed out / core+main mod+du cost more=resets sim / core+main mod+du higher scholar=resets sim. Would the lot51core log indicates the issue with my game or mod? please help what am I missing? What should be in my game to have custom degree (not greyed) and degree cost more? sorry I am difficult and taking your time up, these degrees are so good.

dipsiesnows

I got an error on BE saying the tuning costs more package is invalid for course data_archeology_classesD and the fitness major, and also an invalid tuning error for main package regarding arts university

Jordan

test the mod alone with only the core library

shatinnsims

thank you for your time. Neither works for me. still greyed out.

Zero_

Try deleting the cache, someone fixed it that way. Someone else fixed it by testing on a nex save

shatinnsims

having greyed out degrees. i have latest core lot51, main custom degree and cost more file in only. please any tip or help? thank you.

Jordan

main. the other one was a compatible version not required anymore, read the description.

Kuroko Tetsuya

same. i can't choose the deg even when I max all my skills. and I install only the cost more tuning

Kuroko Tetsuya

what's the difference with Zero_CustomDegrees_Main_Andirz and Zero_CustomDegrees_Main? which one should I use?

María Salas

Okay clearing the cache files did the trick!

María Salas

Yes I have only one tuning, I will keep trying and update if can make it :) Thank you for your time

Jordan

Check if: you have installed one of the tuning packages, you don't have installed both tuning packages.

María Salas

Hi, im having the same problems as others, when I try to choose a degree all the degrees from this mod are grayed out and I get a message " this is a distinguished degree at this university. Anyone who solved this can help? Ty!

karina kay

okay thank you

Caren Joseph

I installed it again I

Caren Joseph

I believe I install it wrong

Jordan

What was the problem?

Jordan

The cost (EA 240 my version 2400)

Caren Joseph

I got it to work

karina kay

What is the difference between the tunning packages?

Michelle Broadnax

English

Xavier Joseph

Muchas gracias por integrarle mi traduccion Soy Stephen !!!! este mod me encanta asi tengo mas oportunidades de que mis Sims estudie otras carreras.

Caren Joseph

Is anyone else getting this message

Caren Joseph

I downloaded this for the first time but when I try to choose a degree all the degrees from this mod are grayed out and I get a message " this is a distinguished degree at this university. Your sim's skills are not sufficient to be accepted here. Feel free to join a non-distinguished degree or try another university

Jordan

All the different files means both the tuning files?

Kathryn Brough

Hi, I seem to be having some issues with this mod. I've installed all the different files I need I think, and the new degrees are showing up, however they are all locked off saying that they are distinguished and my sim doesn't have enough skill points to unlock them, even the undistinguished versions have the same message? My sim is also lvl 10 in some skills and quite high in others so I would hope some of the degrees would be unlocked?

Kat Bairwell

I feel like EA/Maxis owe you a big old chunk of money, for all the work you put in, filling in the gaps they leave in their expansion packs! I am so grateful for your time, and effort! <3

MarLisa L Martin

Finally a Medical Science and Animal science degree! I don't feel so alone anymore lol

Chloe Miller

Hi there! I was wondering if there is anywhere in particular to go to for mod support? I'm having some troubles with this mod (i.e. Britechester doesn't show up in the first step of enrollment, there are doubles of the custom degrees, and no electives are listed). Thanks!!

Zero_

This doesn't touch anything from maxis

Isis Hiwatari

Are the tweaks and fixes mods still necessary with this mod?

Jordan

I don't know about conflicts with other mods, I stopped looking into mods for this game years ago.

dipsiesnows

Fantastic thanks. I keep getting an BE error saying the tuning mod is conflicting with Lompinou's mods though, that the artsuniversity tuning mod is invalid.

Zero_

not needed anymore, Lot51 added a university injector so the override isn't necessary anymore

dipsiesnows

is the costumdegrees_andirz version still compatible?

Zero_

What language are you playing in?

Michelle Broadnax

The degrees aren't showing up for me. They're in the list but they have no names to them.

Jordan

Scroll down to the additional files on Curseforge to find the tuning

avi anggiya

In your curse forge account there is only main file not tuning file, should I download the tuning file ?

Victoria Pascal

Thank you!

Zero_

You're not the first to have this problem. Test the mod alone and let me know how it goes

avi anggiya

I cant choose any of the degrees

Jordan

Nope it's a file I made to be able to batch replace stuff quickly

dipsiesnows

Ooo, awesome! Is the template a similar set up to the custom careers one?

Zero_

Maybe, I have the template to make them relatively quickly

dipsiesnows

Will you be planning on creating/adding more custom degrees like Accounting & Finance, etc?

Zero_

Yes. Those files aren't required anymore because I used the core library to inject the majors. Make sure to have the version 1.12 minimum of the core library.
