Default [Resolved] My Custom Career Not Displayed In Game
Greetings. I am trying to create a custom career from an EA career's xml I extracted.
So I modified all the parts which mention the EA career and replaced with new instance IDs.

career_Adult_Dreamer has 810CDC885C6C36C7 as instance ID and so on for the other files. I think the reference ID is 9299049808837490375? I use 64 bit for the instance IDs and the reference IDs of all the files I am modifying. Hopefully I do it right.

Code: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<I c="Career" i="career" m="careers.career_tuning" n="career_Adult_Dreamer" s="9299049808837490375">
  <T n="available_for_club_criteria">True</T>
  <T n="career_affordance">11446550776673679411<!--si_Career_Dreamer--></T>
  <L n="career_availablity_tests">
    <L>
      <V t="sim_info">
        <U n="sim_info">
          <V n="ages" t="specified">
            <L n="specified">
              <E>YOUNGADULT</E>
              <E>ADULT</E>
              <E>ELDER</E>
            </L>
          </V>
        </U>
      </V>
    </L>
  </L>


Problem is that since I changed s="9299049808837490375" the career doesn't show up anymore. Before, it was showing with the data of the EA career I am using as base. It is still in testing. I have not finished, and I am not sure I got all the files yet.

So those are the categories of files I am editing from EA career's xml I extracted:
  • ActionTuning
  • AspirationTuning
  • CareerLevelTuning
  • CareerTrackTuning
  • CareerTuning
  • DramaNodeTuning
  • InteractionTuning
  • ObjectiveTuning
  • RewardTuning
  • SituationGoalTuning
  • StatisticTuning
Each of them have their own instance ID and reference ID. I didn't touch any aspiration or trait, I just modified the part which pointed to the EA career like this:
Code: 
<V t="career">
      <U n="career">
        <V n="test_type" t="career_track">
          <U n="career_track">
            <T n="career_track">17815961256352929167<!--Dreamer_Track1_Sandman--></T>
          </U>
        </V>
      </U>
    </V>


I don't know if I am missing something or if I added useless categories. Also, I don't know where I broke it. I am following the EA modding guide about how to hash files properly and random guides I could get a hand on. The tool I use is Sims4Studio. I am still collecting all the strings to put in a STBL file but I want to finish all the editing first.

Any guidance would be great.

Thanks in advance.

Careers need to be injected and is the reason why we have Neia's tool, which unfortunately is closed until she can come back. I don't think the XML injector can do it for you, so you'll need to use Mod Constructor instead.

Thank you for your reply!

I see, so I need to create a custom career via mod constructor then.
It looks very tricky. I will do my best.
