Do use cheats with
care - some may have undesirable effects
|
|
Some versions of the game the cheats may be case-sensitive, i.e. if the cheat has an upper case B at the start then you must type an upper case B or it wont work. This is not the case if you have any of the newer expansion packs.
To enter a cheat whilst in game press Ctrl plus Shift and C together to open the cheat console (the white type box at the top of the screen). Then enter the desired cheat, some have alternative options i.e. on/off or true/false, type in either one of those options without the "/" character, usually typing in the other, again without the "/" will turn off your chosen cheat effect.
Where you see something between < and
> in the chart, that is where you need to specify a value when typing in the cheat, the range or options are suggested within the <
>
Example: aging off will prevent your Sims from growing older (and dying baring freak accidents!), but if you decide you want them to revert to the normal aging process after using aging off, simply open the cheat console and type in and things will progress as normal.

| kaching |
Adds 1000 simoleons to your family's funds |
| motherlode |
Adds 50,000 simoleons to your family's
funds |
| familyfunds
<Family name> <+/-Amount> |
Neighbourhood
cheat that gives or takes money from the funds of the
specified family i.e. familyfunds Goth +5000 gives 5000
simoleons to the Goth family |
| Aging |
| aging
< on/
off> |
This will turn on or off the aging
process, if you choose 'aging off' then your Sims will not
get any older, 'aging on' progresses things normally |
| agesimcheat
<on/off> |
Adds
a "Set Age" option to the interaction menu,
allowing selected Sim to choose the age of any Sims they
interact with |
| Aspirations,
Influence & Needs |
| lockAspiration
<on/off> |
Freezes
aspiration level for currently selected Sim |
| aspirationLevel
<0-5> |
Sets
your currently selected Sim's aspiration level, 0 - minimum,
5 - maxium |
| motiveDecay

| Create-A-Sim
& Sim Appearance |
| intprop
censorgridsize 0 - intprop censorgridsize 8 |
If you want to remove the censor grid that
appears when your Sims are naked you can enter intprop
censorgridsize 0 to remove it temporarily, intprop
censorgridsize 8 will return it to normal. This
is useful for object testing or skin testing where the
censor grid gets in the way, however I'd advise getting a
patch or using the SimPE start routine if you want your Sims
permanently de-censored as it gets annoying entering the
cheat code every time! |
| StretchSkeleton
<0.5 - 2.0> |
Smaller
values will make Sims smaller, larger values will make Sims
bigger (temporary) |
| faceBlendLimits
<on/off> |
This cheat relates to settings in the game
which prevents very different looking parents producing
really messed up looking kids, turn it off to get some fun
and freaky results, turn it back on to restore normality! It
can also be used in Create-A-Sim to remove the facial
constraints in order to create a really bizarre looking Sim.
Don't try and use Sim Surgery with
this cheat 'off' |

twinsr2cute |
Enter before your Sim gives birth to guarantee
twins (no more piling on the pounds stuffing down cookies
and spaghetti!) |
| intProp maxNumOfVisitingSims 8 |
You can invite more people to your
parties. |
| social_debug |
Your game will display information about
what reaction social interactions will get before they occur
- i.e. if your Sim is about to propose marriage this will
let you know if the other Sim will accept or reject their
proposal before, if they are going to refuse you can opt to
cancel the action before it happens (so no rejection
memories!) |
| Pets |

pets controllable like regular Sims aside from queued

allows
queued pet actions to be cancelled when pets under active
control (see above) |
| intProp
maxNumOfVisitingSims <8> |

party - beware that large numbers will likely cause slower
machines to freeze up |

| Building
Tools |
| move_objects
< on/
off> |
This turns off the constraints on where
certain objects can be placed, allowing objects to be placed
so they are intersecting other objects, walls etc, it also
allows 'stuck' Sims or objects to be moved or deleted. This
is a highly problematic cheat which can de-stabilize the lot
if used without great care, its advisable if you use this
when building to restrict it to decorative items which Sims
do not interact with and avoid using it on items such as the
mailbox, trash can and driveways as this can cause serious
bugs and even render your game un-playable. |
| boolProp
allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation <true/false> |
Allows

| boolProp

manually it will still 'stick' to the lot, if you want to
share it without the terrain paint file attached but want
the lot to work properly without any nasty flashing blue
areas use this to un-stick any terrain paints. It
will remove ALL terrain paints on a lot so its not suitable
for just removing one of several paints. |
