me too :)

I've never used money cheats, less because my sims are upstanding citizens (quite often they're not) and more because I really enjoy building up a new family that's broke and struggling to get by. Being able to buy them whatever they want takes some of the fun out of developing the family, at least for me.

I also don't use cheats to build or to take better pics or video; it's not my thing and anyway I'm not good enough at it to worry about that stuff.

But one scenario in which I cheat relentlessly and shamelessly is when I have a sculptor, I use moveobjects on to see how a sculpture will turn out (the design and price). It takes so long to finish one, I can't stand not knowing whether the final product will be worth keeping. And I really want to decorate the lot with as many stone sculptures as possible, both decorative (masterpiece only) and functional (brilliant is okay), which would take several times a sim's natural lifespan if I didn't intervene. I never sell them though, so I can say it doesn't count as a money cheat.

I used to use motherlode a lot. At one point I could type it faster than my own full name. But I sorta grew out of it. Now, my favourite cheat is probably the teleportation cheat, which needs testingcheatsenabled true. I'm also quite partial to buydebug, I love sifting around in the "miscellaneous" section and looking at all the cool stuff I can buy, like lifetime reward objects :tongue:

Because I use the NRaas Mastercontroler mod and its add-on mods, I don't use that many cheat codes. Definitely "buydebug on" and "moveobject on" (I don't count the testingcheats one since that is needed for all the others, so goes without saying.)

If I didn't have MasterController my most used cheat code would be "Edit in CAS".

Can't say I have a favorite, that's sort of like asking what my favorite key on a keyboard is. To me cheat codes are merely a way to get things done quickly and out of the way, not counting ones that help us get through game glitches and other things that should just never have happened.

But I sure find myself reaching for restrictbuildbuyinbuildings off often enough lately. That's because I'm currently playing in Bridgeport though and have been for quite a while, so I guess that's not as relevant for other worlds. :)

I'm on the same page as those that enjoy playing without money cheats.
I'd say "buydebug on", "placeFriezes on" and "moveobjects on" are the ones I use the most. I always turn them off while playing.

What does "placeFriezes on" do?

Never mind, I found it, it's the answer I've been looking for forever! Friezes are GREAT, exactly what I wanted to do! Here's the howto I found:
