Promotion issue

There was no issue before the patch, but now there is a bug where Sims in certain careers (Education, Law etc.) do not get promoted from career level 9 to level 10. When they go to work, the Sims are in excellent condition, their job performance is at its peak, and they meet all the requirements for friends and skills. However, they have been stuck at level 9 for several days without getting promoted. I think this is a bug.

    Lelana87Now that I think about it, I don’t think this issue is caused by the patch. Actually, I installed a few mods related to university diplomas. The problem didn’t occur immediately after that, but I think the patch and these mods might have conflicted and caused the issue. Thanks for your response!

    Yes, the Sim in Law Enforcement was one I played through college. All the others are College-Townies I moved in to the neighborhood, so they all have a Diploma.

    mate54 Thanks for you reply! My sims were created before the lastet patch! I‘d rather not create new neighborhoods (since it takes a long time), but I'll try it to check the cause of the issue!

    Lelana87 Thanks for your reply! Did they graduate from university? My Sims have all graduated from university, yet this bug occurred. I want to approach the issue from multiple angles to find the cause!

  • leesooyeon89 Were these Sims created before the latest patch? Does the same issue happen if you try this in a brand new neighborhood? Due to how Sims 2 manages save files, some problems may remain in existing neighborhoods even after patches.

    I had one Sim in the Education Career (1 in Law Enforcement, 1 in Dance, and 3 in Culinary) and they all got to the top of their career since the last patch without problems. Maybe try resetting the neighborhood?
