Quick answers

Sims 4 cheats FAQ

What is the main Sims 4 cheats command?

Use testingcheats true first when a command needs the testing layer. Money cheats such as motherlode can then be entered in the same console.

Why did my Sims 4 skill cheat not work?

Check that the Sim is selected, the skill name is spelled exactly, and the command matches the skill family. Pack-specific skills may also require the related pack.

Can I copy a Sims 4 cheat from this page?

Yes. Each command row has a copy control. Placeholder-based commands still need the Sim names, value, or internal ID replaced before you run them.

Are these cheats affiliated with EA?

No. This is an independent reference project. Game names and related marks belong to their respective owners; use the official Sims 4 site for current game announcements.
