Is there a mod that adds the Acting skill to the Drama major?

I still can't believe the Drama major wasn't integrated with Get Famous, specially because GF is older than DU. Since this major boosts the Acting career and while I deeply wish for an official update on this, I know this is unlikely to happen. I could just leave college but this way the Drama major makes no sense... so, are there any mods that change major curriculums? Is that even possible?
  • I would also be interested in a mod like this. There is sometimes an option for an acting elective class you could have your sim take, but it doesn't come up all the time, and anyway it's very strange that a drama degree doesn't teach any acting lol. (I actually think there a few degrees who's "core curriculums" seem...off, but this is by far the most noticeable and, to me, most annoying one lol). A lot of degrees actually have 3 skills in their core curriculums, while drama only has charisma & comedy, so it wouldn't be that odd to just...add a third one, and have that be acting. I hope they integrate the packs better with University in an update or something, but till then, a mod would be HUGELY appreciated.

    I don't think that'll help as it's not a bug, but by design.
    If the Drama Degree required the acting skill it could not be used by Players that don't have Get Famous. The same is true for the singing skill which would in theory have been neat to be raised when choosing to go for a Drama Degree.

    Hey I didn't see this back then but I saw your mod when it was released and been using it ever since! I had no idea you saw this post. Thank you so much. You bring a lot of QoL improvements to this game <3

    The problem is that the drama degree classes don't raise acting skill, they only raise charisma and I think comedy.

    Oh, okay.
  • I think the best thing to do is make a thread on answers hq and post the link here so people can "me too" it
  • I have a singer Sim in my game thanks to Sacrificial's Road to Fame mod, so I always have him make Fine Arts as his degree. There are options for him to act via the mod, and he does get called for bit parts on a movie. Unsure if that actually helps boost him in the acting career, which I was just having him do two iterations of my game save ago. Just to be clear the latest version of Road to Fame: Street Dancer V.0.5. is deemed compatible for the last patch, if you're at all interested.
