Postprocessing cheats
Use the following case-sensitive codes after enabling the Postprocessing cheats
with the boolProp enablePostProcessing true code. Note: Do not enable or use the
Postprocessing cheats unless your video card supports pixel shaders:
Blur effect; red, green, blue value must be between 0 and 255, and x (bloom)
between 0.0 and 1.0 - bloom [r g b x]
Centered blur effect; centerX and centerY are screen coordinates; x (vignette)
must be between 0.0 and 1.0 - vignette [centerX centerY x]
Grainy screen effect - filmGrain [0.0-1.0]
Letterbox screen effect - letterBox [0.0-0.4]
Testing cheats mode
Press [Ctrl]+[Shift]+C during game play to display the console window. Enter
boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true to activate testing cheats mode. This is a
very powerful cheat that enables many new things. In Create A Sim, after
enabling this code, go into debugmode by pressing [Shift] + N before making a
Sim. You now have the following new things in Create A Sim: skin tones,
clothing, and some other options such as viewing the skinfilenames. In the game
itself, after enabling this code, hold [Shift] and left click on a Sim to have
lots of options, such as changing clothes, make your Sim fat or thin, set their
aspiration level, etc. This code also can spawn some interesting items, such as
the tombstone of L(ife) and D(eath), and family members.
Enable the boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true code then go onto a different
family. A strange code will appear at the top right hand corner. If you go onto
the Sims' needs, you can click on each one and drag it up or down, whichever
desired. You can also increase the skill points of your Sims in the same way.
This is useful if you want a promotion, if your Sim is depressed, if you are
teaching a toddler to walk, etc. You can also hold [Shift] and click on a Sim.
Click on "More", then "Spawn" and create the Tombstone of L and D. You can click
on this, then "More" then "Make everyone here friends with me", which helps if
you need friends to get promoted, or to complete an aspiration task.
