Compiled List of Architecture Jobs
« on: June 23, 2010, 09:58:56 PM »
Some would like a list of all jobs to keep a look out for those they haven't found. I will start a table to put on the guide once I have enough info here. Please try to keep this topic clean of off-topic posts to make it easier to compile. Thank you.

Needs Confirmation
  • Entire House
  • Reading Room
  • Kitchen Remodel


The titles in italics haven't been confirmed, but I know that they are close.  Apparently the designer of the architect line wasn't very creative when it came to naming the jobs, they are pretty much just what you would think that they would be.  I considered listing the items needed to complete the job, but they aren't always the same for every job.  I am assuming that the required items might be unique to the personality of the client, but I'll start to keep track of items that seem to show up time with each job so that the list will be even more complete.

Oh, just as a quick aside, I noticed that I only added 3% to my portfolio for the job I completed when I jumped on my architect (really it's an interior designer, but not one to quibble).  I think I'll also have to keep track of the percentages as well and see if they vary by job or are consistent.  The good news is that I have about 20 jobs completed towards my 100 needed for the LTW, so there's definitely more than enough of an opportunity to find this

Note:  This is not an exhaustive list - it is a work in progress and will be added to

(6/25 - edited to update list)

This is exactly what I want, but the more specific the job names the better.

Yeah, we actually need the exact name of the job to have a clean list to put in the Guide.  :)

I can confirm Powder Room and Super-Chef Kitchen.  My sim has been at level 10 and her portfolio is only 73% full.  She has 51 jobs completed toward the 100 needed for her LTW.  She has had quite a few $5,000 bonuses. 
I'll keep my eyes out for any other types of jobs she comes across.

Thanks, Mtglady, I updated the list.

Also, I noted the percentage that went to my portfolio on the list here, and have been keeping track of the items needed to complete the remodel (not the specific number of items).  Hopefully we can put together a comprehensive list for the guide. :)

To get a full list:
Step 1: Join the architect career
Step 2: Turn on Testingcheatsenabled
Step 3: Go on any residential lot
Step 4: Shift-click and press "spawn job on this lot"
Step 5: There is a list of all the jobs

Even though Danny totally stole my thunder  ;), I figured that the percentage for job and required items might make for a more comprehensive list.

If you don't need it, then no worries, just let me know and I'll stop working on it.

I'll put it all on the guide tomorrow. If the math comes out to being 3.xx percent each, I think that explains how it ends up going up by 4% sometimes.

I'm still dying to know how all of these odd jobs could possibly equal 100%.

I'm the mod queen (and I do not endorse them  ;) ).

Just saying that no one has compiled a comprehensive list of jobs that could possibly fulfill the 100% quotient.

In fact, even as a modder/cheater, no one has provided this information.

So far in my testing that I am performing now, you get 3%, then 3 %, then 4% to equal 10% of your portfolio.  So say you do 10 jobs, add 3% + 3% + 4% + 3% + 3% + 4% + 3% + 3% + 4% + 3% = 33% for those jobs that you add new photos to your portfolio.  After 5 days on the job, that is where my Sim is sitting with her portfolio.

I think it's because there are a handful of archetype jobs that have several different names.

So looking at the bedroom, there are three jobs that I know of, but they are all bedroom.  If that follows across the board then there will be plenty of jobs.  If you look at the bedrooms, there are two: New Bedroom Set and New Bedroom, both of them are essentially the same job, they just have different titles and there's 6% right there.

This doesn't work for me.  When I shift-click on the lot, nothing happens.  Do I need to be in a certain mode?  Like edit town instead of live mode or something?

# Did you join the Architect career and is it the architect-sim you shift-click on the lot with?
# Are you sure you shift-clicked (press the button right over CTRL or Control -on PC that is, is it something like "Command" on Mac?-)
# Did you type in testingcheatsenabled true correctly?
# Did you click on a residential lot (ie a lot you can buy and live on)? I'm not sure about details since I don't have Ambitions yet, but maybe the  lot has to be inhabited and have a house on it?
And since the OP directly said "join the architect career and shift-click on lot" I think it means live mode.
Sorry if the questions seem stupid and insulting to your intelligence. I just reckoned you could have made any of these mistakes, as I've done similar mistakes many times.  :-X

@ CanterFanatic, I still have that problem and have been trying since the OP made their post about being able to do that, so don't feel to bad.  I just chalk it up to incompatibility somewhere in the line.  I have tried absolutely everything to get this to work and it just does not on my computer/in my game.
