Custom Career problems
Hi fellow simmers,I've come here because I can't find a solution for my problem.
Lately I was trying to make a custom vet career, but even though it's my 4th attempt, the career still doesn't work properly. I'm a newbie to this so I guess I make a mistake -probably same one all the time- in strings unhashed keys. The game sees the career but even after doing all steps from tutorial my career is still a bunch of numbers and causing my game to crash; in 'career' no name is shown,no metrics,no tones,no description,simply nothing showing except pictures [even Nraas can't choose this career's levels or anything connected to this one]. I was trying to look at other custom careers and well...so far coding looks pretty similar but still not working.
I uploaded folder with my career and its contents. It has only polish strings added as it's the lang of my game but I'll attach the english strings in folder [not added to career yet..]. Or maybe english strings are a must have for a career to work?
Could anyone look into this and tell me where do I do the mistake/correct the mistake? I'll accept all advices,I need to learn how to properly create careers
Ps. I was using tutorial from wiki and missyhissy. Please dont mind my poor eng. skills

One of the tutorials said you needed English strings for it to work, along with the secondary language. Plop that in and see if it fixes it. It didn't crash my game and I have a zillion mods. Make sure all of your expansions are checked when you open your game. I found that helped me out, when I was getting script errors.
I want to know how you got the little picture to come up with a white background. Mine comes up with a dark one and makes it hard to see.

Ps. Were my strings okay? I dont know if I haven't made some errors :/

One spelling error for level six: Professional Dog Trainer (you spelled it 'Proff"), otherwise it looked fine, English-wise.
I hope you get it to work! Mine is still being cranky, and I had trouble understanding what they want for the upload. Maybe one day I'll post mine.

Sadly it's not working even after adding English strings. Maybe I should just give up already,how many times can I start it over and over...
Anyway,I uploaded the pic pack for you. I do not own this, just reuploading as I can't find the site where I got it from.
You can dowload them here: https://www.mediafire.com/file/s7c6.../Sims3Icons.zip

I found a mistake in yours!
Go to your Polish strings notepad file. Add the bolded words to your own file. Save, Re-STBL it, and add it to your package.
<KEY>Gameplay/Excel/Careers/CareerList:Weterynaria</KEY>
<STR>Weterynaria</STR>
<KEY>Gameplay/Careers/GetJobInRabbitHole:JoinCareer6355632353824686304</KEY> <---This is the third line
Do the same thing for your English file. It should read JoinCareer6355632353824686304 when you are done on both.
Then you have to go back and edit the unhashed and the FNV Hash key line above it. Re-stbl and replace. Save.
See if that fixes things up.
I'm still at a quandary myself. No matter what I do, the first job level name will not appear, and I've now made TWO career mods. It's frustrating.
