I decided to play Sim City 4 Rush Hour for the first time in over a year. Wanted to play around with the cheat codes. I can't get any of them to work. Running the game on Vista with no other issues. Any suggestions?
What cheat codes don't work? You pressed Ctrl+X to bring up the blue box, right? You need to type in the code exactly the way it's supposed to be typed. If you have the Extra Cheats Plugin, you need to right click on the box that pops up. Some of those codes only work if you have that plugin. You can find it on the Stex.
Thanks for the reply. As far as I know I don't have the extra cheats plugin. Control + X opens the cheat box. When I type in the cheat nothing happens. Have to hit escape to get the cheat box to go away. I could live without all of the cheats but would love to play with unlimited money for a change. I've tried "ultamate money", "moneyeo" and "lovemoney" and none of them change anything.
LOL. Thank you both for the input. With all due respect, I did look up the cheat codes. All three codes I included are listed on multiple cheat code sites. I didn't even try to use "weaknesspays" as $1,000 hardly seems worth the effort using a cheat code.
I heard somewhere there was a money tree or something like that. Is there a download on this site--assuming it's some kind of lot--that I can place to get money? Is it difficult to get it to show up in the game?
I do know that with the Extra Cheats Plugin, there is a cheat where you can pick how much money you want your city to have. The one called "Moolah". You would use it like this, "Moolah $" with the $ being however much money you want.
Chptrk, thanks a $1,000,000. The moolah cheat code in the extra cheats plugin is just the kind of thing I was looking for. Perfect. Way easier to deal with than the weaknesspays code! Thanks again. I'm off to enjoy playing the game now. Have a great day.

please note that cougar2004 made a thread that included a link(found in the cheat code section)to a file that added several cheat codes(including moolah)just install it in your program files plugin folder.
"plopalllots" plops just about every building possible in your city(warning , it has been poorly tested , do this at your own risk as a crash is very possible)[sometimes , you can build roads strait through the buildings that the cheat plops!!! and there still u-drive-it compatible!I have no idea what happens when there isn't enough space to put all the lots , also , sometimes it doesnt plop all the possible lots - use this cheat at your own risk , also , nobody knows exactly what this cheat is supposed to do - I am telling you what I saw. ]
although power plants and water towers/pumps will generate zots when not next to a road - just ignore that , they will still function so you can place them way out far freely , they also make good "median fillers" for the rhw.
Anyway, I gave it another go with one of the tutorials (free mode). The procedure and outcome of this test has been exactly the same as in my previous experiment above (no corruption, no vanishing city, new name working, additional album folder created by game, etc...)
Based on my own experiences and the fact that I never head of a similar problem before, I dare to predicate that your case might have been just an unlucky coincidence. Have you been able to reproduce this phenomenon in another test (backup your region folder first ), or has this been a one-time occurrence?
not really to bump the thread or anything - but cougar2004 : your "everything you can change in sc4" thread is awesome , had I known , I wouldn't have likely created this thread , but this is basically an open discussion , sorta a cheating discussion , so its a bit different from yours.
press [Ctrl] + X to display the console window. Type "weaknesspays", but do not press [Enter]. Highlight the word using the mouse, then press [Ctrl] + C to copy the text. Press [Enter], then press [Ctrl] + X to open the console window again. Hold [Ctrl] and press V to paste the text, then press [Enter], without releasing [Ctrl]. Keep pressing V then [Enter] while holding [Ctrl] while the console window is still open to amass as much money as desired.
to get money faster, type in "weaknesspays" and before you press enter, push and hold the shift key. this will keep the cheat box open. all you have to do after that is press up and the previouse cheat will pop back up! then all you have to do is repeat to fulfill your money need's!
Use the unlock all rewards code, and write down requirements for reward (hold the pointer over the picture.) Place that reward. Now perform the requirements for it. Neil Fairbanks will ask your permission to build the reward a second time in your city.
The big scam is that time only passes if you actually load a city. If you fill a city with nothing but power plants, water pumps, and landfill (and the appropriate connections) and then never open it up again, you can send in garbage and take out water and power without ever having to worry about paying upkeep or running out of landfill space. Not what the developers intended, but certainly a worthy trick.
Land value is enhanced by the proximity to water and high ground (elevation-wise). This is your opportunity to make some places that will be higher in land value, and make your place popular among your citizens.
I f your looking for the cheats , look in the link that cougar2004 put nere the top of this thread , look in the cheats section , and cougar2004 put a link to an extra cheat dll file , just put in in your program files plugin folder(it didnt work in my "my documents" folder)
By the way, using the video recorder is very simple - it's what I used to film some stuff in my CJ.
What you should do, is set the number of seconds to a high number and the prames per second to 20, in the recorder window, then click start. It might lag a little, but it's ok. DO what youre doing.
Once youre done, click stop, and go to your Sim City 4 folder in Documents, then go to Recorded Animations.
You'll see that each frame has been recorded into a separate JPEG file - you can choose format in the recorder window.
Now this is where you might freak out. Don't
If you have a software like GIF Animator from ULEAD or a movie making software, the deal is that you have to put all those frames in, shorten them so there are 20 frames per second, put them together and press play!
I'm working on exposing what ever feature does in it, into one simple to use post or readme file. But until then, the list on All you can Modify in SimCity 4 (Poll inside) 1 2 should suffice.
gol - Begins the Game Of Life. It shows a random game of life algorhythm on your city's map. Try clicking around on the green objects that cover your city map. To exit this, press ESC key.
I think I will post any new information down here because the initial post is becoming HUGE! the u-drive-it cheat is pretty much useless - but it allows you to click a car on the screen and take a free drive in it.
I found some cheat codes online. One for removing the need for electric power and one for removing the need for water. I'm getting messages in my message box about how the lack of electric, and water, is hindering my city. I guess what I am asking is does anyone know if it is hindering? I'm not getting no flashing power symbols or water symbols.
There is Lua code which triggers those messages and they only look to see if the city is powered and/or watered via the normal methods. So, you can continue to grow your city with those cheats in place. OTOH, I've only used those specific ones long, long ago. I'm not certain if you will still need actual water to progress beyond stage 3 buildings or not.
My preferred method of using cheats is modding so I can balance the budget for my play style. An even easier method is the moolah cheat so you can simply set the amount of funds you have on hand and this then lets you build all the power and water plants and afford them.
Another useful thing is if you are building schools and medical buildings is to open their query panel and set the funding sliders down so you are paying for only what you need. Same is a good tactic for a Seaport or Airport to adjust funding so you don't overpay. These are done thru the transportation budget rather then via a building query.
