Description
Auto Service Career is a full remake and modernization of the original Auto Service Career by YouLie, originally published on ModTheSims. The original mod had not been updated since mid-2019 and was no longer functional. It also missed many gameplay systems introduced with later packs.
With permission from the original author, this mod was fully adopted, repaired, and expanded. All images used in the career still belong to the original creator.
Career Overview
This is a classic rabbit hole career focused on hands-on automotive work.
The career structure follows the spirit of the original version but has been significantly improved:
- promotion requirements redesigned
- daily tasks added
- work schedules updated
- work outfits revised
- new gameplay interactions integrated
- career progression rebalanced for modern packs
Since this is a technical profession rather than an academic one, university degrees are not required. Progression depends on relevant skills and practical experience instead.
