Installing Custom Careers
ItMustBeBunnies:
Before I start let me just say that I have spent days extensively searching for my answer. All I can find is people asking the same question and getting "Research" as a response. Well I've been researching and at best all I can find are responses that direct you to links with general instructions for installing custom content (I'm a bit beyond that at this point haha). I've already downloaded the NRAAS mod and placed it in The Sims 3/Contents/Resources/Transgaming/C Drive/Program Files/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages Folder. I downloaded a couple well made careers from ModTheSims. I then placed the career .package file in the Packages folder. I cleared out my caches. When I boot up the game the careers don't appear. From the comments, everyone else has the career working fine... Not sure what else I need to do. I'm running on a iMac, pretty brand spanking new. I usually can figure this stuff out myself by researching, but this one is escaping me. Does anyone have any knowledge that would help, or at least point me in the right direction? Please know that I have been looking diligently, but everything takes you in circles. Ironically, I found all the information I'd need to CREATE a career, but not to just simply install one, ha! Thanks in advance for any help. And let's keep this polite as I'm not an idiot or lazy, but I'm about to throw my computer out the window haha

What the fuck has that got to do with anything? Just because it is a shiny new toy doesn't make it better. All that dribble and not much information given other than you can't get your CC/Mods to work properly, which sounds like a probably framework fail. If this is the case, then do a proper fucking search and find out how to install the framework and CC/mods on a Mac thingy. The answers are out there.
HomeschooledByTards:
Does other CC show up?
By the "NRAAS mod" do you mean the career mod or another one of his mods?
Are you fully patched?
Does the career mod even work on a Mac?
No to any of these (except the last one) = PEBKAC. Most likely a framework fail.
No to the last one, contact Twallan and see what he has to say. Contacting Twallan is probably going to give you a better answer anyway, as this is not NRAAS support.
If you answered yes to all of the above, then I guess it may be midgets.
Starler:
Why are you asking here, rather than at the site from which you downloaded the mod? Did they ban you for posting nigh unreadable walls of text?
ItMustBeBunnies:
I posted here because I find I get the most intelligent responses here. All I meant by my Mac being relatively new is that I don't have much installed/running on it, that was all. Yes, I did mean the NRAAS Career Mod. Yes, other custom content shows up just fine, never had any issues in that regard. My game is fully patched. It's a little ridiculous that in 10 years of Simming it's a crime for me to run into one issue. As I said, I can usually figure out stuff for myself. I haven't been banned from anywhere, I just wasn't getting a response and I'd rather not wait around for a few years to hope I get an answer. I will contact Twallan. But don't say the answers are out there when you can scroll through dozens of pages of results and find the same crappy useless answers everywhere. I always try to be of help to others, didn't realize it was every man for himself in a COMMUNITY forum.
