Sims 4 money cheat not working

Hi guys, 

Most of the cheats I try in Sims 4 are not working. I usually play without cheats, so this is the first time I tried using them in The Sims 4 (although I think I used the motherlode cheat just after my sister and I got the game to see if it is still the same, and it worked). Her game's cheats are working perfectly fine, but mine aren't, all of the sudden.

I thought typing "testingcheats true" first would help - it worked (says "Cheats are enabled"), but the other cheats like motherlode, freerealestate, katching, etc. still don't work. I didn't try all cheats as that would take forever, so I can't name all that aren't working. I updated my game today as well, but still nothing. I haven't played the game for a month, but I didn't change or move any files in the mean time. I don't see why it would suddenly stop working...

If there is a patch for this, please direct me to one. I didn't find one yet. Please help me!

  • Wait! Silly me 🙂 I found the problem - I was in Build Mode... so apparently some cheats don't work in Build Mode. They should add that as a side note :P

    Thanks for the help anyway!!

    Type; testingcheats true 

    Then you can use the mentioned cheats.

  • Hi everyone,

    So I tried going off build mode and accessing enabled cheats but it still didn't work. I am in need of simoleans and would love to know how to fix my problem.

    Thanks

  • Cheats don’t work if you are in buy ir build mode so look at that and try again!

    Its actually MOTHERLODE, not MOTHERLOAD 🤷🏽‍♀️

  • When I was in build mode money cheats were not working but then I went into live mode and my money cheats were working. That might help.

    I'm closing this thread to stop it being necroed.
