 Say Thanks!
I decided that since there's now a Archaeology career, there should really be some training for our Sims while at Uni. So here's my Archaeology 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 History major because my graphic changing abilities suck.

Catalog Description and Course Outline:

Archaeology: The systematic study of past Simuliar life and culture by the recovery and examination of remaining material evidence, such as graves, buildings, tools, and pottery. Those who study archaeology desire to know how the mistakes of the past tie into the mistakes of the present and the future.

Biological Anthropology (Anth 1),
Sociocultural Anthropology (Anth 2),
Archaeology (Anth 3)
Language in Culture and Society
Methods in Sociocultural Anthropology
The Anthropology of Gender: Cross-Cultural Perspectives
Forensic Anthropology Laboratory
Archaeology Field/Laboratory Research

How to Use Custom Majors In Sims 2 University (credit to Poojkins for writing this, with a bit of tweaking by me!)

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 or any subfolder thereof.

3.Go into your C/Program Files/SimPe file, and you should see a folder called "Data" there. Double click on that folder, and inside there should be two files: additionalcareers.xml and additionalmajors.xml. Right click on the additionalmajors.xml file and in the drop down list that pops up, choose to open it in notepad.

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

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<alias>
<item value="0x00061608">Archaeology</item>
</alias>

If you already HAVE custom majors, just add this line under all the other lines of existing custom majors:

<item value="0x00061608">Archaeology</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'.

Oh and before I forget, this is English version only cause I have no clue how to add languages. While constructive criticism is welcomed, flaming is not, so don't start. Please report back any problems and I'll try to correct ASAP!
