Can't get Gold in Actor Career
I wasn't having any issues with this at first. I was getting gold with commercial and tv show gigs. Then I got the celebrity perk where you no longer need to do auditions or get into costume. All of ...

I am having the same issue. At this point in time I am suspecting that the gig I have chosen is not a "Movie" acting gig. I thought I was choosing the correct one but I could be mistaken. I am currently working on this now. I just performed the "detective" one and recieved gold. However the aspiration did not take credit. I am going to try a different one next. I will update if I find a certain one that works. Unless you already know...?
Ok.... so I just found this (weblink and screenshots will be attached).... it could be helpful for others. As of now, I am going to stick with my original suspicions of my issue; that being I am not choosing the right gig. However, I have yet to see any of the "movie" gigs pop in my list options. After it does, I will give one a go and update further.
Ok, so for my situation, I would say that I just was not choosing the proper gig. I had to wait 1 sim day after completing the previous gig before any "movie" options showed up. I chose the tournament of honor gig even though there was a few "movie" ones to chose from. I did my normal routine of completing the prep tasks, completing every on-set task available and got into hair and make-up as well as costume before talking to the director to start shooting scenes. And as she always has (she has never failed), she successfully performed "risky" on every shoot. She recieved gold and she completed the Master Actress/Actor aspiration!! Woot woot!
So for fellow simmers struggling, my first suggestion is to make sure you are choosing a "movie" gig. From what I gather they advertise to be a $6k+ pay out. My sim recieved $11,483.
- @Nikquin I love the acting career and have played it MANY times. You can easily get gold on ANY gig if you just follow what's on-screen.
You should look at the gig list before you select one. It will say something like Fitness Level 5 or Guitar Level 4. You MUST have at least that level before even attempting the gig, or else the chance of failures and not getting silver/gold is high.
What I usually do is click on the "Check for gigs" button and quickly bring up my skills panel before the gig list comes up. That way I can compare the gig list requirements with my current skills at the same time.
As long as you meet the basic requirement, the audition will always pass. Then just make sure to do the daily tasks BEFORE the gig. This will also reduce failures.
Once all daily tasks are gold, just wait for the gig to start. Once it does, do ALL job tasks, and all the "Risky" options and you'll get gold easy.@PsychotpsThank you, and yes, everything you said is exactly what I was doing. My problem with completing the aspiration was that I was not being offered any "Movie" gigs, therefore, the ones I was chosing, I was taking my best guess that they could be movie gigs by reading the description of what was available for me. Once I made the decision to NOT choose, and to do some google research, I found a site where someone had finally taken the time to answer the question correctly for another player; which was that you must wait or refresh your list and eventually certain gigs titled "blah blah blah" (I can't remember them all, but I linked the site I found in a previous post.) will become available and those are the "Movie" gigs. My sim I am using is my PS4 trophy chaser. She is maxed in all but (I think) 5 skills. She never failed nor received less then gold on any of her gigs right from the start of her career as an actress.
