I hope I'm not the only one who was bothered by this.
I have diplomas everywhere.

Argh, I feel like such a party pooper now....
The mod does hide diplomas with walls down. But with the hack in, all my diplomas suddenly belong to the same person.
I removed all my other downloads to see if it was a conflict, but it still happened (5 diplomas all apparenly belongs to Everett (last sim to graduate if that matters)). Removing the mod also removed the problem (diplomas now belong to their correct owners).

Default Update!
Gwillewyn is right: the first version of the diploma that came with the UNI (which is the version I've used as a base for my mod) had the problem that she points out, i.e. the diplomas are not assigned to the right person. This issue was addressed in the first patch that Maxis released for UNI; but unwillingly I bypassed that patch with my mod, thus restoring the buggy behaviour of the original diploma.

Please re-download the mod: now it should be capable of automatically take account of any changes Maxis will decide to apply on the diploma, even in future patches/EPs. The updated mod will overwrite the old one.

Gwillewyn, you seem the have the most suitable test ground for this mod: please test the new version and report any issue.

Great, thanks.
My sims tended to keep their diplomas in inventory, just for that reason. I might let them display proudly now
Please note - I'm not taking any requests at the moment.

Works as it should now. All my sims own their respective diplomas.
Thank you.

Gwillewin, thanks! I'm glad that it works now

Muse, be careful, because if the sim dies with his diploma in his inventory, the diploma is lost forever. Well... someone may object that once the sim is dead, he doesn't need his diploma any more, anyway...

Using this in game and have had no problems at all, could something like this be made for the photo booth and the camera reward pictures (and possibly make them viewable)?

I always like putting the diploma on my wall when my Sim's graduate, but I hated that they were visible with the walls down. This makes things much nicer, thanks!
