How to turn off free build cheat?

I was thinking that you meant that you couldn't enter live mode on any of the community lots or the career venues. That is why I said about repairing the game and resetting the sims folder. I am sorry! I am glad that it has worked out now. :)

You don't have to be sorry, I didn't know how to explain it. But I didn't know about the resetting the folder so thank you for that information :)

Well, I did a little test for the shops, you can't edit them through live mode unless you own them. The freebuild cheat also doesn't work, but it doesn't have to, since you can edit the lots by loading them from the neighbourhood screen.

Basically you only need the freebuild cheat for lots you can't access via the neighbourhood - that is the career venues and the hidden lots. The only exception is the science lab, which has a freely available build mode because it allows you to move around inventions (without having to drag them from one end of the lot to another) and once you have the raygun, you'll be asked to transform items, so you can easily buy more once you run out of a particular item.

It didn't work. now I still can't put anything in the household inventory

Hello
Try saving your game thencoming completely out of the game. Reload the game and the cheat will then not be on.

bb.enablefreebuild false should do it.

Try using "testingcheats false" to turn cheats off entirely.

I had some issues with the freebuild cheat before, so I'm not sure it will work but its worth a try.

Thanks but it didn't help

I've never had to enter an enable build code for the science lab, I believe it is fully editable at all times, unlike the police station and hospital

that's what I was thinking also, but when I go to the gym the build mode button is enabled.

Did you do a repair game?

no not yet.. I think I might try that soon

Repairing the game may help. To do that, right click on the sims 4 picture in Origin and click repair.

Also, try resetting your sims 4 folder and see if that helps. To do that, move your sims 4 folder to the desktop. Then start the game, and a new sims 4 folder will be generated. Exit the game. Then add back the "options.ini" file and the "saves" , "screenshots" "tray" "custom music " and "mods" folders to the new sims 4 folder, replacing the new generated file/ folders with the old file/folders.

Ok. I will try this after I send my other character to his detective job to see if the build is enabled there.
