Hacks and hacked objects are items that change certain aspects of gameplay, for better or for worse.


Contents

Hack Management

Not hacks or hacked objects, but programs and utilities to help you manage your hacks.

  • Hack Conflict Detecting Program: Paladin at SimWardrobe
  • Hack Detector: Clean Installer (As Clean Installer has not been updated since approx. Oct. 2005, it will not detect all hacks, but can help).
  • Hack and Duplicate Scanner: DJS Sims

Aging and Time

Hacks and hacked objects relating to the aging of sims, life stages, and time on the lot.

  • Add/Subtract Aging Days: BlackSwan at MTS2
  • Aging Controller/Individual Aging: Heirloom Cake by Inge at SimLogical
  • Individual Aging: Monique at MTS2
  • "Real-Time" Clock: Merola at MTS2
  • Lot Timer (the closest thing possible to allow time to pass equally on all lots): JM Pescado at MATY
  • Time Correct When Returning Home From Community Lot: The fact that one can leave home at noon, stay on a community lot for hours, return home, and it's still noon has vexed players since the game was released. However, there's a VERY GOOD REASON it's set up like this... If Joe goes to a community lot and leaves his wife Carol at home on the lot, and Joe's gone for four days (as is often possible especially with community sleep hacks), what does Carol do while he's gone? What if Carol's pregnant? What if Carol's almost an elder? What if she's about to get a promotion? What if they have kids - do they grow up while he's gone? One can use the InSIMenator to change the day of the week, and OfB includes a cheat to change the hour of the day, so you can simulate a return home at the correct time with that, but actually making it the "correct" time when you return home from a community lot is extremely unlikely/impossible as a hack.

Business, Jobs, and Finance

This content is focused on items and hacks relating to jobs, careers, finances, business (including Open for Business-specific or useful items) and money.

Reproduction, Relationships, and Families

This content is focused on items and hacks relating to pregnancy, impregnation, babies, baby care, toddlers, children, sim relations and relationships, and family.

Baby, Toddler, and Child Feeding

Baby Care/Nanny

Birth

Pregnancy

Relationships & Marriage

Family

Create-a-Sim Family Limits Removed

You can use this trick to create, for example, a teen and child as parent and child, adult and teen as siblings, create a teen to live alone without killing off the parents, etc... A hack to remove the limits imposed by Create a Sim is unlikely.

  1. You must have Nightlife or any later expansions for the ageSimsCheat to work.
  2. Create the sims in Create a Sim how you want them for their ages. Before you finish the sims, switch the sims to an age that it WILL work - for adult/teen as siblings, switch the teen to adult and make them siblings. For teen/child as parent/child, switch the teen to adult with the child as their child.
  3. Finish the family and move them into a lot.
  4. When the lot has loaded, CTRL-SHIFT-C to bring up the cheat console and enter "ageSimsCheat on"
  5. Click on the sim(s) that are currently the incorrect age and age them up/down so they ARE the correct age. Relationships will stay intact.
