Sims 4 cheats aren't all working!

I won't lie and say I never use cheats in Sims 4. I do. Sometimes I cheat for more money quickly or to fill motives/needs. And I don't know what happened to Sims 4 while I couldn't play it. But I've tried to the cheats after doing the testingcheats on, yet the fill needs isn't working anymore! It used to work perfectly, so I could keep my sims on track without needs being too much of worry. Yet now I can't out in that cheat to fill up their needs anymore!

Why is that? Why did it take that away from me? The motherlode cheat still works, that's great. But I need the cheat to fill up their needs to work again. I've tried it several times, but I enter it and the needs don't change at all! And I REALLY need the filling needs cheat to work cause I have two sim toddlers! One is angelic, and the other is fussy. And their needs run down so quickly I can't keep them both happy.

Yes, in other discussions I said I had a couple, a woman and a man, but they aren't enough to care for the 2 toddlers cause the toddlers' needs go down so quickly. The dad works as an upcoming painter, and the mom works as a part time babysitter. So he is often left for work and she is mainly home. But with both the needs draining so quickly and over laying each other. It's so difficult to keep the needs well cared for.

I have the vanilla basic game, no expansions or any modding. I only use cheats to benefit me when I really need them. And for the filling the needs of my sims is REALLY a need I need to have back in the game. I guess some updates to the game had changed somethings. But PLEASE developers make it so filling the motives cheat works again. Or any simmers out there, please, inform me to get that darn cheat to work again if possible. Thank you if you read this and have help! Please be kind :smile:

Edit:
I was asking this cause my poor toddlers were so needy I was scared that I would lose them. Cause of that "-name- will be taken away." notification I got sometimes cause a need got too low. But I managed to get through their toddlerhood yesterday. So they are kids now, I'm sure they'll be a bit easier now. And good news, my couple is gonna have another, cause I can't resist making them have kids XD The mom wants a big family soooooo, I guess I made an excuse to make a big family by giving the mom that trait. Thank you to all that commented so far. If I have any more trouble I'll return :smile: Thanks for all the different suggestions I'm sure one of them will work :smiley:

Edit #2:
The repair option worked :smiley: Now, going through all my sims needs will be easier! And MORE good news :smiley: I got twins! It was so random that the 3rd time they got pregnant with twins! And the genetics mixed! So the girl twin got brown hair (dad's) with blue eyes (mom's) and her twin bro got blonde hair (mom's) and green eyes (dad's)! AHH I'm loving it so much! I was so shocked to get twins! No pregnancy cheating either, the game decided to let me have twins in the 3rd pregnancy :smiley: Lol, but now there'll be more pressure do to it being a fuller house. 4 kids in total, the two girl, boy that are kids, and the new twins, and of course the fabulous couple that made them! So 6 sims in one house! CRAZY!

But seriously thank you simmers for all the help :smiley: I hope all your simming wishes come true too! And good luck with all your simming adventures! :smiley:

    You guys can try not using “testingcheats on or true”. I never use it to cheat another cheat, most if not all cheats work without it.


    Interesting.

    My game must have a glitch because my family wee given 10 million simoleans or as close as they can get to it, and i cant get rid of it, no matter how I type a cheat, testingcheats enabled on money 20000, testingcheats true money 20000, or testingcheats on money 20000 it doesnt work, I keep giving it away and they still have far too much.


    Do other cheats work in your game? Maybe you can test out with some CAS cheats and see if it works first?

    If not, then I think it's just the family that's glitch. You can try saving them to your library and then place them again in the game. Delete the old one. This will however remove all relationships with sims outside of the household. So beware.


    thats how I play the Bheeda family anyway, I edit them in cas, download a saved one in my gallery and delete the ones in game, so I can edit he fiery temper. Then i moved them to the new lot and was given 10 million simoleans. saturday they also gained achievments they didnt earn, so today i tried again and they just got the money, exactly the same process. i will try other cheats tomorrow, what ones would you suggest, i dont usually cheat in my games.


    Hmm, then I don't know. Could it be the lot that's glitch? I've never had this problem before or heard of anyone with this issue. :D


    Well, the important thing is you tried your best to help out. :smiley:
  • i saw on youtube girl who has cheat to help get the friendship or romance bar level up, does anyone know how to do this? it would really help as i find it very time consuming when trying to make friends for the next promotions and stuff
