It's not that I can't play the game honestly, without cheats, as a matter of fact, I do enjoy playing a nice game with no cheat codes, or very minimal cheat codes often. But I also often like to play as a ridiculously rich family at the start of the game. Or I like to get objects from that can't normally be bought in buy mode without having to acquire them on my own. Sometimes it's even just the fact that I need to reset a stuck sim.. or remove an annoying sim from the area. I also have cheaty types of mods such as Twallan's Master Controller with the Cheats component to do things that I can't do with EA cheats. However, I know that not everyone likes to put mods in their game, but would still like to use some cheaty ways to advance quicker. ;)
These are my most used, and favorite cheats that are included with the game, and do not require mods or third party content. Most of these also do not require expansion packs, unless the function calls for a specific expansion pack:
-Motherlode: Adds §50,000 to the active household family funds.
-ResetSim <First Name, Last Name>: Resets sim and returns them to a safe location on their home lot. This cheat comes in handy when a sim gets stuck so that you don't need to return to exit the game without saving and lose your progress to get the sim unstuck. I Also like to use this to remove annoying sims from a lot (i.e. Crying toddlers, paparazzi, sims that get in my way, ect.)
-UnlockOutfits On: Unlocks service and career outfits for everyday wear. You must enter this before going into create a sim
-MoveObjects On: Allows you to place objects anywhere on the lot, regardless of other objects, walls, roofs, or location limitations. Be careful that you don't block objects that you want your sims to use and leave enough room for them to get to them.
-FullScreen On/Off: Switches between full-screen and window mode.
-TestingCheatsEnabled True: This cheat unlocks a wide variety of other cheats to use for the game. This cheat is very complex and has many uses. With this cheat you can:
- drag the relationship bar up or down to change the relationship between sims.
- Shift-Click on the mailbox to make needs static (automatically fills all sims needs fully, and they don't decrease), make your sim know everyone, or have it make random friends for you. You can also assign a career and then select career level, force an NPC service sim or visitor, using the mailbox menu.
- Shift-Click on the ground on any lot to teleport there, build/buy there (even on other lots), or to change the weather ( weather options require the Seasons expansion pack)
- Shift-Click on a sim to change their traits, favorites, and celebrity level (Celebrity level requires Late Night). You can also use this to age them up manually.
The following cheats require TestingCheatsEnabled:
-BuyDeBug On: Adds a DeBug category to buy mode and features insect and rock spawners, harvestable plants, and other objects available in the game that aren't obtainable through normal buy mode such as inventions, relics, and many other objects from all installedexpansion packs.
-FamilyFunds <Household Name> <Amount>: Gives the specified household the specified amount of simoleons. This personally is my favorite money cheat over MotherLode because it can add more money quicker. You can not exceed §99,999,999.
-RestrictBuildBuyInBuildings False: Allows for editing of public rooms in high-rise buildings.
-EnableLotLocking True/False: Allows you to lock and unlock buildings for editing
These are just these cheats that I use most often, these are not ALL of the cheats. These are just the ones that I find work best for my gameplay. Please feel free to leave your favorite cheats on this post as well. You can find other cheats available in the game by use the cheat: help, to bring up a list of other cheats.
