How to Enable Cheats in The Sims 4

Before you can start using cheats, you’ll first need to make sure they are enabled for your game. Otherwise, typing them in the cheat menu will have no effect. All you need to do is:

  1. To open the cheat window, Press Ctrl + Shift + C on PC or LB + RB + LT + RT on the console simultaneously.
  2. Type testingcheats true in the cheat window.
  3. Press Enter.

After doing this, you should see a prompt stating, “Cheats are enabled.” Now you’re in the clear to start entering other cheats. However, make sure you enable cheats again every time you restart your game. Here are some cheats you’ll want to try once you do:

All Relationship Cheats in The Sims 4

Relationships can take a lot of time to foster in The Sims, which is why these cheats are so useful. You can increase the friendship and love levels of two Sims or even automatically introduce them to each other to skip past the boring bits. (You’ll need to insert the name of the sims wherever you see “(Sim’s Name),” without brackets for the cheat to work properly).

All Aspiration Cheats in The Sims 4

Aspirations are meant to be life goals for your sims, giving them a focus on different tasks to complete as they grow. As they complete these goals, they earn Aspiration points they can use to redeem very beneficial rewards. If you need some Aspiration points right away or a boost in progress, you can use these cheats:

CheatsEffects
aspirations.complete_current_milestoneCompletes current milestone tasks, rewarding Aspiration Points for them
sims.add_buff PointsIncreases progression in Aspiration milestones and adds 100 Aspiration Points
sims.give_satisfaction_points X
(fill in X with wanted amount)
Gives you Satisfaction/Aspiration Points

All Skill Cheats in The Sims 4
