Wouldn't it be easier to go into Debug mode?

Perhaps that's why it was gone in the first place, to help curtail the spreading of such hacks.

Now I remember this. I had this ages ago, like with the Mailbox Debug Hack.
I suppose it would be good if we didn't know the Debug Cheat

sometimes if you use the debug cheat, and you exit the lot before shutting it off, it can crash the game... so if you want to pick what careers you want, this may be a good thing to have.

I still have the original newspaper hack and I use it all the time for placing my Sims in their careers. Insiminator does the same thing in that regard, but I still like the newspaper approach. Wouldn't be without it.

i definitely prefer this to the debug cheat, which has some underlying problems. been using this for a loooong time.

It works great in my games, both for adult careers and teen/elder careers. The career reward also works perfectly.

Works over here, too!

Doesn't disable saving like debug mode, either ^^;

I have been using this hack for a good while and prefer it to any of the other methods for selecting careers that I have tried, including boolprop.

The only thing unusual that I have noticed about this is that it will not work in my hacks subfolder. It has to be directly placed in downloads folder with the skins, etc. At least in my game it does.

I have this in my Hack sub-folder (like all my other hacks), and it has been working just fine.

Does this hack work with the EP? I had to remove any universal hacks when I upgraded, because it just crashes the game. Is this fixed?

I prefer all of these hacks to the Debug Cheat, myself. I used the debug mode once. These are great. :D
