Cheat to add Sims to household?

Due to a glitch, my Sim is strangers with his girlfriend from university. Is there a way that I can add her to my Sim household in Bridgeport through cheating? I can't invite her over because they aren't friends, and the testingCheatsEnabled true cheat doesn't work to increase their relationship because of the glitch.

  • Even if you could invite her over for a visit by phone, she would arrive in town as a tourist Mini-Sim -- that is, a scaled down data representation of her real self. Getting a mini-sim to move in permanently while they are still in the tourist state will often if not always damage the sim and quite possibly corrupt the game, while the real version of herself might still well be at Uni.

    Without mods, the best you can do is return to Uni (or send another sim), try to befriend and ask her to move in from that end so that she will return home as part of that sim's household.

    With mods, you could use NRaas MasterController's Add Sim function to safely add her (the full version of her, not the Mini-Sim) to your own sim's household, to another existing one, or to a currently unoccupied house, thus giving her a household of her own.
    NRaas > MC > Add Sim > Homeworld > (filter to Uni World)
  • You can add her by (obviously) typing in the "master" cheat code testingcheatsenabled true then pressing shift on the sim you want to add then click add member to household and another way to do it manually is you can drag the relationship bar once you have the master cheat code entered and it will go to from Stranger > Acquaintance > Best Friend > Boyfriend to eventually married. (If your planning too)

    I don't think OP is going to be able to shift-click a sim that is actually in a different world than theirs. That's why I suggested either the mod method or going back to Uni World to find them.

    Ok lol
  • This comment is years late, but i think if you returned to the university (via enroll) you could find her and use "testingcheatsenabled true" cheat, then shift click the girl and add her to your household and then return home.

    I wanted to see if i could keep a zombie sim in my household so i added it to my household (it didn't stay a zombie) and when i returned home that person was still in my family's household.

    Does/ would this work with Mummies as well? an easy method of getting mummy household members..? Or are they somehow slightly a different story..?

    You don't need a cheat to add a mummy. You can use the Canopic jar relic collection and a sarcophagus. Or have an active sim repeatedly sleep in an evil sarcophagus of the kings. See the wiki section (and the one below): http://sims.wikia.com/wiki/Mummy#Becoming_a_Mummy
  • @Kilov17 There is a mummy elixir in supernatural and very common to find in the elixir shop.Use it on any sim you want by throwing it at them even uncontrolled townies and NPCs or use it on your active sim.This is also true of simbot elixirs instead of going through the hassle of building one through inventing if you want a simbot family member.
