To use cheats

Bring up the cheat console by holding down CTRL, SHIFT, C at the same time. This will bring a small white box up at the top of your screen. Type the cheats in there and hit ENTER. Cheats may be case sensitive, so make sure you enter the cheats with the capital letters as shown. Don't enter the brackets around the variables when you enter the cheat.

If you don't get the cheat box when you do CTRL, SHIFT, C, then look here.

Some cheats are expansion-pack specific, and you must have the expansion pack that cheat was released in (or any expansion pack released afterward) for it to work in your game. The icon(s) with each cheat denote which EPs that cheat is included in. If a cheat just has an icon for the base game (original), it will work even if you just have the base game installed, and will work with any and all EPs.

If you would like to make a user startup cheat file (so you don't have to enter certain cheats every time you play) you can do so by following this.


Build Cheats

RightArrow.gif boolProp snapObjectsToGrid [true/false]

TBase Game

Toggles the ability to fine-tune the placement of items, instead of being limited to just placing them at certain spots on the grid.

  • If you find you can't place windows and doors because they won't snap properly onto walls, disable this cheat (and/or remove it from your user startup.cheat file) and try again.

Acceptable values are 15-75 (degrees). While the roof tool is still selected, hold down CTRL and ALT and click on the the section of roof that you want to change. The roof will change angles.

RightArrow.gif Multi-placement on walls (not entered into the cheat console - see description)

Pets

Press the CTRL + ALT keys while trying to place an object on a wall. Placement rules on walls will be removed, and you will be able to place any wall object on a wall already occupied by another object.


RightArrow.gif roofSlopeAngle [15-75]

Adjust angle of all roofs on the lot. Acceptable values are 15-75, which seem to equate to the angle in degrees.


RightArrow.gif changeLotZoning [residential/community/greek/dorm/secretsociety]

NL OFB Pets

Changes the zoning type of the lot. Before rezoning a lot using this cheat, make sure there are no Sims currently living in the lot. To use this cheat, enter the lot that you would like to rezone, and then enter the cheat, choosing one of these zoning options. Save and exit to neighborhood and re-enter the lot. More specific information on using this cheat can be found at: Game Help:Change Lot Zoning.


RightArrow.gif boolProp dormSpecificToolsDisabled [true/false]

UNI

Enables build/buy mode tools that would normally be disabled when in a dorm lot. This will also allow you to enable build/buy mode when on a community lot, though your changes will not save with the lot.


RightArrow.gif setHighestAllowedLevel [number]

UNI NL OFB Pets

Sets the amount of floors allowed (so you can build higher). You cannot go higher than 16 or the game will crash.

  • The Dormer Trick: If you do not have any expansions (you only own the base game) OR if this cheat does not function for you (it appears to work only occasionally or not at all in later expansions) then you can try the following trick:
    • Build up to the highest level you can.
    • On that top level, place a dormer (they're in with the roofs and such). This will let you build one more level up.
    • Put a wall or something up on that next level.
    • Remove the dormer (ctrl-click and drag with the wall tool, remove roofs).
    • Continue building on your new level.
    • Repeat as necessary.


RightArrow.gif boolProp lotTerrainPaints [true/false]

  • Use with caution: deleting certain items such as the mailbox, trashcan, and community phone can cause problems with a lot.
  • Deleting a sim living on your lot, saving, and exiting will result in that sim being restored and standing at the mailbox when you re-enter the lot, which can be useful if they're stuck or otherwise bugged.



TBase Game boolProp constrainFloorElevation [true/false] - Toggles the ability to change the elevation of floor tiles in areas that already have walls, floors, and foundations on them.

Movie/Picture Cheats

Cheats that may be of use in movie-making and picture-taking.

TBase Game boolProp enablePostProcessing [true/false] - Enables the use of postprocessing cheats. You must have a video card that can handle pixel shaders in order to successfully use this cheat. If you use the cheats and you don't have pixel shaders, the screen will most likely go partially dark, and will not come back until you turn off enablePostProcessing. If you turn on postprocessing, and you turn on cinematics, and a cinematic plays, you may also experience unwanted graphical glitches.


TBase Game bloom [R G B X] - Adds a blur effect, like a sitcom flashback moment, with a tint if you so choose. Acceptable values are from 0.0 - 1.0. To calculate RGB value, divide each number by 255. X is the amount of bloom. Must have entered boolProp enablePostProcessing true for this cheat to work.


TBase Game vignette [centerX centerY X] - Adds a blur effect from the specified center. Using "vignette 0.5 0.5 0.5" should put some blurry bits at the edge of the screen. "vignette 0.5 0.5 1.0" will give the maximum edge blurryness. Acceptable values are from 0.0 - 1.0. X is the amount of vignetting effect to apply. Must have entered boolProp enablePostProcessing true for this cheat to work.


TBase Game filmGrain [amount] - This cheat makes the screen grainy. Acceptable values are from 0.0 - 1.0. Must have entered boolProp enablePostProcessing true for this cheat to work.

NL OFB Pets familyFunds [familyname] [amount] - Sets the chosen family's funds to the given level (does not add the amount given, but sets it). If the family name has a space in it, you can put it in quotes - i.e. to set the di Marco family's funds to 30000 you'd do: familyFunds "di Marco" 300000


NL OFB Pets terrainType [Desert/Temperate/Dirt/Concrete] - Change the neighborhood's terrain type. You will have to exit the neighborhood (by entering another one) and return to it before your changes will be visible. Only seems to work for the whole neighborhood when changing to desert. Entering any other type reverts to grass except for lots themselves, but not the neighborhood terrain.

basegame boolprop ShowLotPackageFilename [true/false] - Toggles display of lot's filename when lot is highlighted in neighborhood.


basegame deleteAllCharacters - Deletes all sims including NPCs and townies from the neighborhood. Useful if you have new facial defaults and replacement townie names you would like to apply to everyone in a new neighborhood to regenerate all prettier townies with better names at once. Not for use on played, inhabited neighborhoods.

basegame aging [on/off] - Disables aging for all sims on the lot.


basegame kaching - Add 1000 simoleons to the current family's funds.

*Advanced*

Warning! This cheat is for advanced users, and improper use of it may cause problems in the game. Use at your own risk!!!


basegame boolProp testingCheatsEnabled [true/false] - Used by Maxis for testing certain aspects of the game. This cheat has many, MANY uses, not all of them useful for the player, and some of them potentially harmful. If you must use the testingCheatsEnabled cheat, only enable it for exactly as long as you need to use it, then turn it back off. You will likely experience errors if you leave this cheat on - the cheat itself does not cause errors, but shows you errors that were happening anyway. If you do get errors, click CANCEL or RESET on them.

A guide to the testing cheats is available here
