Just reset game to factory settings, still without any mods or ccs can't get the cheat bar to come up. I've tried everything from reinstalling my game-- to resetting it and nothing seems to be working. I can't get it to work, I've tried a combo of keys. It was fine before the last update, do I need to just wait for the next one to fix it or what?
And yes the 1230 do work.
The correct keys to press to open the cheat console in The Sims 4 is CTRL-SHIFT-C. if that does not work it is likely because you have a screen capture program running in the background hat uses that key combination. You can try to change it in that program or you can try using CTRL-SHIFT-WIN-C and see if that will work.
Yeah I did that too. And the right key combination just frustrated. I seriously had no issues until the patch so I'm just wondering if that's the reason
Thank you so so much. Don’t know when this question was posted but been looking for help, found it here and now all cheats working well.
- @jpkarlsen How do I turn off the background hat for screen capture on my mac or enable these cheats on my mac with it?
I'm not sure what you mean by a hat in the background. You press the same keys on Mac and PC to open the cheat console (ctrl - shift - c). To take a screenshot press c. You can also click the photo icon.
Likely short for Windows.
Thank you !!!
thank you so much i used your shift+ctrl+wind+c AND IT WORKED IT TOOK ME DAYS TO FIND A SOLUTION FOR THIS I RLLY APPRICATE THIS BRUV
How can change the screen capture??
@meilmeil55 Find the program using the screen capture, and change its settings. How to do so will depend on the app in question, and if you can't find the setting, there's probably a YouTube tutorial for that app.
First, thx so much. But uh what kimd of screen capture system thing and how do I turn that off? Somebody help me
@Hajo_biene Check the Task Manager to see what other apps might be running while you play. Look through the background processes list too. If you don't find anything, one common culprit is the AMD graphics software, which you can open by right-clicking the desktop and selecting AMD Adrenalin (or whatever name you see; it might be different for an older PC). Then check the screen capture settings and change the key binding.
