This is great, thank you. I hated always having to re-enable testingcheats.

One problem I'm having with it though is that I can no longer disable need decay, as well as filling the household's needs. These cheats don't work for me with the mailbox, or with shift clicking the individual sim. Otherwise, everything else works great.

あなたはすてきですよ。あいしてる

This is awesome, thank you. Definitely a great cheat mod. A lot easier than have to type in every cheat.

I love it but -- Cheat Need, while still there, seems to no longer work.

I did everything right, but it's not working... no mods will work in my game for some reason,... help?

I uploaded this to the \Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 4\Mods folder, enabled script mods, aaand...nothing. It doesn't even show up under the mods listing. Am I just oblivious and doing something wrong?

Disregard, I figured it out. I was unpacking the zip file and uploading like with other games. Didn't read far enough to see that I needed to just put the zip file in the mods folder. *doh*

I just tested it. Yeah the "Need" cheat still shows up but doesn't work. I'm sure you can fix it though. Can you add the "Money" cheat too? It's the only cheat I notice that's not included. And I don't know if you added the Modify Relationship (Positive and Negative Friendship/Romance) cheat from -50 to 50.

I tested it out: Moving from screen to screen I still have to enter 'testingcheats true' to get the needs cheats to work. I am also experiencing a problem with not being able to get my sim to stop an action, such as play the guitar or dance. I have to force reset my sim through the cheats options to make him/her stop.

Yeah, so that mod was just a hasty hack (which didn't even start as a mod but as a modding of a dll with an hex editor). I just posted it on the forums more as an example and as something that could help people wanting a cheat mod. You know, something better than nothing but not meant to be a quality product.

I never meant it to have the quality, testing and polish of a proper mod. I basically just had a more or less useful file I wanted to share because I thought it could be of use to some.

The site moderators went ahead and turned my thread about some half-assed experimental mod into some official download without my consent.

I hope they're willing to fix the issues and provide the support that it now deserve because I'm certainly not going to, or ever intended to. I just meant to explore modding and share what little I discovered for what little while I'm going to play this game before losing interest.

Thank you so much for this! Even though you didn't intend it as a "proper mod", I really appreciate the start you've made for others - should really really help my aggravation with this game.

haven't tried it yet but how does the relationship cheat work? I did find the cheat codes to edit the relationships for adults but it won't allow for children.... I think that is really the only kinda cheat I'm in need of at this moment.

@clown , you did post "feel free to upload it yourself" -- so we did.

Get it before the link is removed, feel free to upload it yourself if you want.


^^

The fact that you're not going to support it is stated pretty clearly in post #1 -- you're not obliged to change/fix/edit/update anything you don't want to.

So yeah .. there are basically two options: either post it on this site -- but then it needs to be an actual upload -- or not post it here. But we can't have everyone post "uploads-that-aren't-really-uploads" in the Create forums -- that is simply not what the Create section is for.

If you don't want this to be available, just delete your first post and it'll be gone -- or if you want, we could change the thread owner to this account so it's not under your name any more. Please reply here or PM Leefish, me or Srikandi on how to proceed if you need us to do anything.

Stuff for TS2 · TS3 · TS4 | Please do not PM me with technical questions – we have Create forums for that.

All right it did everything you said, put the zip file in mods folder, activated the option scripts mods, i can see the mod in the mod lists under script mods, now when i shift click something, nothing... so if the mod is in the list being recognized and working... why is not working??

after some extensive testing and playing, yes this mod works well if installed exactly as the description instructions state.
the alter/chat-moods- make all happy and disable needs decay seems to be bugged or just not working
and you cannot cancel current activitys as stated in the comments above,
a known way to resolve this issue is to click on the object your interacting with and do reset.
this was just released so im sure and as we are all hopefull that these issues can be fixed and updated for us to further enjoy

Thanks for sharing your mod. I'm just one of many players who appreciate not having to manually enable the debug cheats via the console every time that I play or change lots.

You need to download the mod not follow the editing instructions, the mod fixed the problem with canceling actions.

Need work fine for me, but if you want to do the decay needs disabled you need to type testingcheats on first or they will not work.

Oh I see! I just automatically assumed it would be on with the mod from the start. Ahaha.
I'll check in a bit.
Thank you

Edit: yeaah have to still type in testingcheats enabled/true for alter needs to work. Luckily I changed my hotkeys to laziness cheats. Ahaha.
