DISCLAIMER
Nothing stated here is supported whatsoever in an official capacity by Maxis. Everything is use at your own risk. Please take the necessary precautions such as backing up your data.
Use
You can enable test/debug/hidden interactions on any object (including sims) without any hacks. In fact, I recommend you get rid of any hacked objects that just show these test/debug/hidden interactions. As well, you can have access to some testing cheats that shipped with the game, Create-A-Sim debug mode, etc. Here's how:
From the cheat console, type: "boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true".
These abbriviations will be used below:
- RMB
- Right Mouse Button Click
- LMB
- Left Mouse Button Click
This enables the following:
- Ability to enter CAS Debug mode. Click on the zoom buttons (or in that area), press SHIFT+N to enable, SHIFT+M to disable. Do this before creating the first sim.
- See hidden skintones (right now, only Alien and Mannequin).
- See hidden skins (Social Bunny, Fire Fighter, Llama Mascot, etc.)
- SHIFT+RMB click on any sim bin sim to show info on the outfit.
- See special tooltip text on skins.
- Debug interactions on all objects. Press SHIFT+LMB click on any object.
- On a sim it will allow you to spawn items like the Tombstone of L(ife) and D(eath), Rodney's Death Creator, etc.
- Tombstone of L and D can spawn new characters, create babies, etc.
- Rodney's Death Creator can kill a sim through many means and have the ghost reflect that (i.e. death by fire, drowning, electrocution, etc.).
- Etc.
- Can force an error on any object
- Creates OETreeDelete.xls data file used for debugging (used to determine what objects were automatically deleted by the Simulator because of an error).
- Object Error dialogs will show up and dump files will be created.
- Opens up sim editing
- Can manually change sim's interests by clicking on the interest bars.
- Can manually change sim's skills by clicking on the skill bars.
- Can manually change sim's motives by clicking on the motive bars.
- Can manually change sim's personality traits by clicking on the personality trait bars.
- Can manually change sim's relationship values with other sims by clicking on the short-term and long-term bars.
- Can manually refresh wants by CTRL+LMB click on the aspiration icon.
- Can mark want/fear as achieved by CTRL+LMB click on any want/fear icon.
- And more...
Startup File
If the you decide to put this line in your My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2\Config\userStartup.cheat file, it has the following effects:
- Will attempt upload the your machine configuration to a Maxis internal server.
- Enables more debugging cheats (can be shown by typing "help" at the cheat console)
