*Note*: When using custom majors, the game may sometimes randomly show custom majors when Sims apply for majors. If this happens, you may have to assign maxis-made majors to Sims using SimPE

This is my third custom major. All the class titles are listed below. It does not replace any major since it is an add-on. The icon is the same as the one of the literature major because my graphic changing abilities are pretty low. I'd LOVE if someone could help me make an icon. I'd give whoever full credit, of course. The timings etc of the classes are changed slightly from the literature (it was based on it) major so it should be rather different.

Journalism: the study of writing intended for publication in a newspaper or magazine, or for broadcast on a radio or television program featuring various events and incidents.

How to Use Custom Majors In Sims 2 University

1.Use SimPE Version 0.30 or newer,

2.Download the major, extract it to your My documents/ea games/the sims 2/downloads folder.

3.In your SimPE/Data folder there should be two files additionalcareers.xml and additionalmajors.xml. Open the additionalmajors.xml file in notepad.

4.If you have NEVER used custom majors, erase everything in that file and copy this into it and save:

Quote:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<alias>
<item value="0xEC180D34">Journalism</item>
</alias>


If you already HAVE custom majors, just add this line under all the other lines of existing custom majors:
Quote:
<item value="0xEC180D34">Journalism</item>


5.Once you have saved it, open SimPE. Open your neighbourhood and click on 'Sim Description'. (Make sure it is set to 'Plugin View'. Select the sim you want to assign this major to and click on the 'University' tab. There will be a drop down list for all majors. The custom ones will be right at the top. Select the major you want for the Sim and click 'commit'.

EDIT: Changed the icon back to that of literature major because the old one looked a bit off.
