[ARCHIVED] [CHEATS] Sentiment cheats no longer working

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? Apologies I am not sure, but the last update was 27th July 2024
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All except growing together, jewel one, werewolves, vampire, star wars, and some of the smaller stuff packs
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just type any of the sentiment cheats. None of them are working, since the updates - prior to and after the lovestruck release.
What happens when the bug occurs? For example I want one family member to be deeply connected with another. I type the cheat with the names of the sims that I want to have the sentiment. Press return and nothing happens.
What do you expect to see? When I press return. I expect to see in the relationship panel - the family member - with a new highlight - showing that they now have this new sentiment. Nothing is happening. The new sentiment no longer appears and nothing changes.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Yes
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes
Please describe the patch or change you made. This happened as far as I can tell. Since the three patch updates starting on 24th July 2024, then the two that followed to correct several reported bugs since the update.

‌

I am sending this bug, because sentiment cheats no longer appear to be working.

    Hi I hear you.

    According to a Sims 4 News website - it says they are issuing an emergency patch next week.  I am not sure if this is an issue they are including in the patch.  What I have been doing to get around any negative behaviour - if I catch it in time is.  (Apologies if you know this already).  If you have cheats enabled - ie type testingcheats true into the cheat bar and press Enter.  Then if you see one of your sims on the verge of doing something you don't want them to do.  Pause the game, press the Shift button and then click on the Sim you want to stop, and then select Reset Object Debug.  It then stops the sim from doing whatever you didn't want them to do.  This has been rescuing me, in the meantime.

    Sadly, sentiment cheats are still non-functional after patching the game to version 1.108.349.1020 / PC ("invalid value" etc.).

    Thank you for checking.  That was my next move after the update.
