Trouble With Perk Point Cheats

Hey there, for some reason every time I try and put in dine out perk points cheat it doesn't work.... I put testingcheats true first and I am making sure it is right. I just don't know what I am doing wrong or if I am doing anything wrong.

  • use testingcheats on which should give u a message cheats are enabled then type in perk cheats, use testingcheats off to disable

    @EuphorialQueenyeah I gave those a go and still nothing, I guess it must be because of the update? All other cheats seem to be working fine though. I am not sure if it makes a difference that I am using a Mac

    @calnen31 @siobhanraven  Hi!  Do you have TwistedMexi's AllCheats mod?  If not, maybe search for it online and see if it helps  There were a lot of cheats disabled a while ago, as EuphorialQueen mentioned, and that mod restores them. I have no idea if the Dine Out cheats were part of that but I have the AllCheats mod and I use a lot of cheats.  I would lose my mind if I didn't have the option.  😃

    @JonaO703 Thank you! I actually found out that the cheats *are* working, the cheats messages aren't; so just type them in, they are there!

    @siobhanraven Oh, weird!  Glad they're working for you :-)

    Edit: I did a bit more digging and just noticed this bit on the sims-online.com site...
    "Requirements for them to work are; type in testingcheats true first and own a restaurant. To see if they worked open up your Perk rewards list and hover over the shopping basket. When the cheat worked it will say: Your Sim does not meet the proper age requirements or this item has already been claimed."

    I haven't used these cheats so I can't attest to that but, as you said, they worked.  Although it sounds like maybe it's not obvious if you have to check something to see if they worked.  lol
