The Sims 1 And 2 Legacy Editions: All Working Cheats

The Sims legacy editions: a cheat code guide for The Sims 1 and 2. The Sims franchise is renowned for its extensive cheat options, offering players shortcuts to simplify gameplay and overcome challenges, particularly useful in the more difficult earlier titles. While not all cheats from previous versions function identically in the 2025 Legacy Editions, many remain accessible. This guide details tested cheats for both The Sims 1 and The Sims 2.

Activating Cheats:

The cheat activation method is consistent across The Sims 1 and 2. Simultaneously press Control Shift C to open the cheat console. Unlike The Sims 4, you don't need a preliminary command to enable cheats; simply enter the codes and press Enter.

The Sims 1 Cheats:

The Sims 1 offers a limited but helpful selection of cheats.

Cheat Code	Effect	Notes
rosebud	Gain 1,000 Simoleons	Motherlode is not functional in The Sims 1.
rosebud;!;!;!;!;!	Gain 5,000 Simoleons	Each additional ;! adds 1,000 Simoleons.
rosebud;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!;!	Gain 10,000 Simoleons	Add more ;! sequences as needed.
set_hour 1-24	Changes the time of day	Replace 1-24 with the desired hour (1-24).
autonomy 1	Removes all Sim autonomy	Sims will only act when directed.
autonomy 100	Sims act based on greatest need	Needs are fulfilled in order of urgency.
sim_speed 1	Sims move very slowly	Replaces the speed arrows from later games.
sim_speed 800	Sims move at normal speed	Default setting.
sim_speed 1000	Sims move at ultra speed	Use with caution; very fast.

move_objects on	Move normally unmovable items	Does not allow moving objects off the grid. Use in Build/Buy mode.

All codes (except move_objects on) are for live mode. Money cheats are unusable on the neighborhood screen; move Sims to an empty lot, use the cheat, then build or evict.

The Sims 2 Cheats:

The Sims 2 provides a broader range of cheats, categorized by game mode.

Any Mode Cheats:

Cheat Code	Effect	Notes
kaching	Gives 1,000 Simoleons	Replaces rosebud.
motherlode	Gives 50,000 Simoleons	A more efficient alternative.
boolprop guob true	Toggles indoor object shadows	Best viewed in Build mode.
help	Lists all Sims 2 cheats	Some listed cheats may be non-functional.

exit	Closes cheat console	Closes the cheat text box.

Live Mode Cheats: These affect Sims and pets. (Too many to list here, refer to original for full table.)

Build and Buy Mode Cheats: Primarily for Build mode, but many work in Buy mode as well. (Too many to list here, refer to original for full table.)

The Sims 2 TestingCheatsEnabled Menu:

While not required for the above cheats, the boolprop testingcheatsenabled true code unlocks a new menu accessible by Shift-clicking on a Sim. This menu offers options to adjust aspirations, join secret societies, change outfits, and more. Use with caution; it's prone to bugs and can accidentally kill Sims. Save your game beforehand.
