Re: [OPEN] Style Influencer: Skill level not Properly recognized

It sounds like I'm experiencing the same issue others are having. Here's my nitty gritty:

Product: The Sims 4
Platform: Windows
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Oddly, it only seems to affect one sim.
What is your current game version number? Sims 4 1.62.67.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Get to Work, Get Together, City Living, Seasons, Island Living, Discover University, Dine Out, Vampires, StrangerVille, Realm of Magic, Perfect Patio, Cool Kitchen, Romantic Garden, Vintage Glamour.
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Reach the level of Style Influencer that requires level 6 Writing to promote.
What happens when the bug occurs? Despite my Sim having already reached level 7 writing skill, the game does not recognize her as having a high enough level writing skill to promote.
What do you expect to see? I expect the "reach level 6 writing skill" line in my sim's career promotion requirements list to show a check mark rather than its progression being stuck at 5/6.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes, lots of it, it doesn't seem to interfere with my other sims' career progressions (plus I honestly don't think any mods I have add, change, or modify careers in any way whatsoever).
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? I think the last time I played this sim was before the latest patch released. If I'm remembering that correctly, this means it's not the most recent patch that did it.

    Same problem here but with the photography skill. Says my guy is still level 2 when hes now level 4. I tried the cheat to change the skill level down to 3 and even 2 then back up but neither worked. Hopefully like others are saying its just visual and he'll still get promoted? If it makes any difference, it was the last of the 4 skills to reach the promotion requirement.

    Wow!  This bug is already six months old and EA has done nothing - they just really don't give a crap after they have your money do they?

    Just to note, I'm now seeing exactly this with the Civil Designer career in Eco Living (specifically Logic), along with the same issue with various Aspirations not recognising I'm at or above the skill level required to advance.

    With the Aspirations, it's not so much of an issue as I can use Aspirations.complete_current_milestone to get past it, but I don't know the code to advance the Civil Designer career using careers.promote.

    I've tried lowering the skill and advancing it through learning too (as well as setting it to the required level using stats.set_skill_level Major_Logic), but that doesn't work either.

    I have no mods or CC installed at all.
