There are cheats for just about everything in The Sims 4, and they come in handy if you need help to earn money or progress in your career. However, you can also use them to boost your relationship statuses, gain Aspiration points, and even increase your talent. Here’s how!
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:
- To open the cheat window, Press Ctrl + Shift + C on PC or LB + RB + LT + RT on the console simultaneously.
- Type testingcheats true in the cheat window.
- 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).
Cheats | Effects |

ModifyRelationship (Sim’s Name) (Sim’s Name) 100 LTR_Friendship_Main | Increases two sims’ friendship. |

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:
Cheats | Effects |
---|---|
aspirations.complete_current_milestone | Completes current milestone tasks, rewarding Aspiration Points for them |
sims.add_buff Points | Increases 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
Along with boosting your relationships and Aspiration progress, you can also get a head start for each of your sims skills. It can take time to earn a talent in the game, and these cheats will allow you to bypass some of that wait time and have your sims excel faster.
