Discover University Rotational Mods?

Are there any mods yet to make Discover University playable for rotational players? I played a household long enough so my Sim could finish an entire semester (I usually switch households every game session), and she ended with an A-. I didn't have her enroll in the next semester so I could switch to other households. When I returned, she had a C and was on probation. I'm not sure why this pack doesn't work for rotational players, but it's very disappointing, because it was my most eagerly anticipated pack, and now I avoid all Sims who are in college because it just isn't fun for me.

  • How many days do you play each family? I used to play each family 3-4 days, but that simply wasn't enough to develop their stories and follow them through a whole semester once I got to 4 families. So I wanted to play them for 7 days, but that wouldn't have worked out with the seasons even in the 28 days setting.

    I then made myself a little mod that makes the seasons 56 days long. If you want it (or any other length), just tell me and I'd upload it for you. It's really no big deal to change the length of season days. Now I can follow their studies each time.
  • Oh sorry, I just reread your post and it says you didn't (!) enroll her for the next semester and she still ended up having a C and being on probation. This never happened to me, sorry. So my mod won't help you.

    Thanks for trying to help though. I appreciate it. :)

    -What lot did you save your University Sim on before you switched households? I found saving in a dorm before rotating tends to mess up their grades, whereas saving on "normal household lots" seem to keep grades accurate.

    -The only way I've found around the rotational game grades glitch:

    I play 1 semester at a time at a dorm(but I'm sure you could play more than 1), don't sign up for the next semester, move them to the Pleasant's, and then switch to my next household. When it's time to play them again, I have them sign up for the next semester and move back into the dorm.

    -Also, Do you have Auto Age for Active Household Only on? I'm not sure if that might have anything to do with that or not, but that is another possible problem that might be altering grades if you don't already have Auto Age for Active Household Only turned on.
  • @MLadyAzzera I play with aging off. My Sim lives at home in Strangerville. Thanks for your reply. :)
  • Thank you again. :) I’ve actually read through this thread before.
