Re: Enable debug cheats not working when trying to shift click on a sim
What did you do to enable the cheat?
Did you try ctrl+shift+c and then 'testingcheats on' ?

- Yes but it's just the shift click is not working
Do you get the feedback that the testingcheats are enabled?
Is the shift button being used by an program in the background?
- Yes. But I saw that on YouTube if u shift click on a Sim more options show up
Checked it in my game, and it seems to be working. Only the game needs to be on play, not on pause.
And it took a little bit to register I entered the cheat. Does shift+ (left) click on the mailbox work?
- Not that I know of
Could you test that the next time you play?
- I tried to click on the mailbox and nothing happened
Do you have any mods or CC (custom content)? Try taking that out and test the game.
Also are you on Windows or on Mac?
- Yes, I do have mods installed. No custom content . This is what the enable debug cheats looks like
Oh! Now I see, that's a mod:
http://simsvip.com/2014/09/15/sims-4-enable-advanced-debugcheat-interactions-mod/So without that mod you can't get these cheats.
- That's right
When you click the link in that article you're being send through to the mod, and you can choose to install it with their instructions.
See this for more information: [PLEASE READ] Usage of Mods and Custom Content- What do u mean?
It's content written by someone that's not working for or with EA. You can choose to place that in your game, but it can cause issues down the line.
So if you really want that option you'll have to download and install the mod.
If you have the mod installed, and it's not working, try contacting the creator.
i tried to contact the creator and nothing happened. i really want to use this cheat but i dont know what else i can do to get it to work
Which version of the mod are you using ?
Clown's or the one linked within the comments ?
Did you read the comments of that thread ?
- Clown's. No I didn't see anything in the thread. Send me a pic
Just go back a few pages in the comments at MTS (I cannot link mods here) and you'll find a version that's currently working. Clowns version is outdated and no longer functional.
MC Command Center also has the option.
All I had to do was do ctrl+shift+c and type in "testingcheats true" and it worked. I'm not sure if you're still talking about the same cheats I'm talking about, though.
- @Phantomlover1717 Did you ever find an answer? I bought a new laptop and am able to enable cheats but don't get any options when clicking on objects or Sims. I tested it on another laptop to make sure I was doing it right and it works fine. So it most be something with my laptop in the game. I tested out my shift keys too, just to make sure that wasn't the issue.
