Game Developer Career
Yes, another Game Developer Career! Given that the previous ones available have not worked for many versions ago and the authors have not bothered to fix them for the later versions of the Sims 4, I gave up waiting and learned to use the Mod Constructor to make my own.
I have based it on the Game Developer Career from the Sims 3, although not exactly. I have made some of my own changes that I hope you will still enjoy and make as much sense to you as it does to me. Being a Game Developer with an Advanced Diploma myself, the changes I made were in my opinion, more Authentic to real game development.
It was made with Version 165.70.1020 of the Sims 4 including all of the DLC’s and Packs around at that time. It should hopefully work with the latest version too. It has been thoroughly playtested by myself and a friend of mine with a later version of the Sims 4 than me and seems to be working perfectly.
Some details about this Career are…
