Family Funds Cheat Not Working?

Bump

Hi - does this actually work with Sims 3? I've always used motherlode

Yeah, I use motherlode or kaching

it does work, but its really picky about when it works. its unreliable. its possible it only works on edit town screen, or only works when testing cheats is enabled. im not really certain
i would use motherlode, kaching, or money (just type in money in the cheat window and get 1 million simoleans)

Meh, I wanted to take away money.

It only works if you use testingcheatsenabled, I think.

makes sure you have the testingcheats enabled first then familyfunds - (how much) then household name to take away funds, to give funds same but without the - sign.

I do have testingcheatsenabled whenever I use it though :)

Perhaps familyfunds are case sensitive. :?

It's just as you've done it, familyfunds # . Can't say I've ever had an issue using it. Make sure your game isn't paused, because I believe it doesn't take effect until time is progressing (ie. it has to add or subtract the funds, not just change the variable). That's been my experience, at least. Also, make sure you have the family name right, because it isn't the last name of the sim, it's the actual family name of the household, which might be different.
