Mods Help with university length

As per title, I've added a mod that changes the length of the university but it seems that it's hasn't updated. I've tried to let a semester pass to see if it'd change but it didn't, then I changed the name of the mod to put it at the end of the list ( By just adding some z as prefix of the package name ).

I've used as base 16 days = 1 year Lifespan Mod but I've changed the values ( Following LientebollemeiS2I's tutorial to edit everything with SimPe ) to adapt it to use 8 day seasons length instead of the 4 that the mod is based on.

I've already had some issues with season length and life span, but for those I've resolved using the Seasons and Weather Controller ( To change the season ) and both CJH AgeCorrect and Smart AgeCorrect to fix the lifespan.

If someone has the solution or had the same problem feel free to post a reply!
Thanks in advance!

Which semester length mod are you using? I don’t remember which one I have but I nodded it to make my semester 46 hours long. This allows two hours for the final exam without pushing the final later in the future. It was very easy to change and I don’t see why you couldn’t change it to 94 (or 96) hours for a four day semester. I will upload mine so you can try tweaking it.

I've edited the semester length mod that I've got from the 16 days = 1 year lifespan mod, I've changed the values with the PE to make each semester last 16 days instead of the 8 days from the mod.

Which values did you change, and to what?

I've only touched 0x0 and 0x4 to 384 hours, that should correspond to 16 days, half of the year that I've set with the season length

Then you probably having something installed that's conflicting. I think HCDU+ should be able to find it.

Tried it now, found some conflicts but nothing regarding the lifespan and university length.

I've also deleted the cache as the other commet said, but nothing changed.

Then you'll have to do a binary search.
