Sims Free Money

[Casimiro Lurten]

helloi am still having this problem if anyone has advice of what i can do i would greatly appreciate it so much!! I bought this game awhile ago and haven't played because i cant figure it out..I like the free real estate and the money cheats there awesome!! I made my sim and I'm at the part where your looking at your city an picking what house you want to live in...so I go to add the free real estate and obviously i open the cheat box and either it has an error code that its not a right cheat or something or it just erases what you wrote and doesn't enter the cheat or do anything just keeps the cheat box up empty..and i tried again when it went blank repetitively and the same thing kept happening!! I DONT KNOW WHAT TO DO!!!

I don't work or have any association with EA. I give advice to the best of my knowledge and cannot be held responsible for any damage done to your computer/game.

Please only contact me via PM when asked to do so.

I finally tried to give Sims 4 a try-out after being totally discouraged by Sims 3. Anyway I opened up the cheat box and got an error message cannot execute above command when trying to enter the motherlode cheat. My thing with the Sims is house building and designing. I was very surprised to see that this has been a longstanding problem for many people for several years. I didn't however notice any solution in the forums. I'm not in builder mode, I have tried both control/shift/c and testing cheats on and neither was effective with kaching or mother lode. Has anyone come up with a solution?

I was experiencing the same thing. Basically, if you click on the build icon from when you click on the house, you can't do money cheats. You have to click on "play" and from there click build mode (in the top right corner) and you can do all the cheats.

I'm on a mac and I tried motherlode as it says, motherhood, and motherload. Apparently, they all don't work. I was even with my friend and she said she got it working but she was on windows. also, my friend tried it on her other friend's mac but it doesn't work. I am concerned that this actually does affect mac. Also, do you know if MacBook Air has anything to do with it because that is what I have.

Product: The Sims 4

Platform:PC

Which language are you playing the game in? English

How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)

What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020

What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? I own and use all expansions and packs.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Download one of my sims on the gallery and attempt to place it in the world.

What happens when the bug occurs? The bug has to do with the sims I upload to the gallery. When someone (even me) tries to download the sim and place it in the world, the sim will not have enough money to buy even a small lot. This problem isn't as bad with couples or groups, but the problem is still there. I am getting complaints from people who try to download both old and new sims in my catalog. The strange thing is, some sims do have the appropriate amount of money, while others do not.

What do you expect to see? I expect to see my chosen sim with 20,000 simoleons when I place my sim in the world.

Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.

Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Yes

Please describe the patch or change you made. The problem showed up after the latest patch in December, and I never had the problem before this patch. I removed all cc and updated MCCC but that did not seem to make a difference. Besides, how would changes I make to my own computer affect other players who download my sims from the gallery?

I have created a number of sims and posted them to the gallery with no issues in the past, but that changed with the new patch. Now, when someone (even me) tries to download one of my sims and place it in the world, the sim will not have enough money to buy even a small lot. This problem isn't as bad with couples or groups, but the problem is still there. I am getting complaints from people who try to download both old and new sims in my catalog.

I've had this bug as well, for as long as I've been playing Sims 4 the last several years, with zero mods, zero custom content, and only the Seasons DLC. However, I think I've FINALLY found a solution, without cheats!

After trial and error I've discovered it's not so much a bug as it is something like a cached file- that is to say, the Sims we download from the Gallery were specifically uploaded from a Saved Game. If you save a Sim from the world into the Gallery, its cached file will go with- their relationships and their money. (At least, in my experience!)

I really really hope this helps, I personally find this more authentic and easier than using the cheat console. I'm very new to the forums (signed up just to share this!) so I hope I've explained thoroughly! My apologies if this is something everyone already just kinda knew, haha.

What is your current game version number? 1.59.73.1020

What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? City Living, cats and dogs, get famous, island living, outdoor retreat, spa day, Vampires, Realm of magic, vintage glamour, laundry day, my first pet, holiday pack.

Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? creating a household, and attempt to move them onto a lot.

What happens when the bug occurs? The households starting funds are around -1400, which makes me unable to purchase the lot. A workaround I have found is to place a completely blank sim, purchase the lot, and edit them after in CAS.

What do you expect to see? The household starting with an appropriate amount of funds. Have never had this issue. I have removed the few CC downloaded directly before the issue began occuring

Thank you for responding. My sims would have varying amounts, but they averaged 1,400 simoleons. I would create a new game and upload them from my profile page (which means they were my gallery versions). I first heard of the problem when three separate players complained about it on my sims. One sim was new, but one was quite old.

I did use MCCC (the only mod I use) and cc, but I have always used those and never had a problem. When I removed MCCC and all cc, I still had the problem. I even repaired my game, but it didn't help.

I removed my mods, tray, and saves folders, and then I reinstalled the game. I created a new game without my old files and had the same problem. I deleted all of my newer cc, moved my files back in, and I tried it again, only to find the same problem. I am at my wit's end.

@Amuni50 This is probably related to the new way we've been given to transfer money in the pre DU patch or DU, I forget which. New sims still get the 20K or whatever just like they used to. But for older sims already in game, when you move them, you now get to decide how much money goes with them when you move them. But to solve your problem until the gurus make a change, I suggest you use one of the ingame cheats (kaching, motherlode, etc.) to set the amount of money a sim or family has before you upload them if you are uploading them from an active household. As for the ones that you've already uploaded, simply tell people use the freerealestate on cheat to place the sims and then one of the money cheats to set the amount of money a household has. Not the best solution but it should help improve the situation.

If I understand you correctly, the sims I already have in the gallery will not work for players unless they use a work around. Is that right? What a mess!! I'm curious as to why more people haven't mentioned this problem.

After a long day at school and a torturous hour sitting in Manila traffic on the way home, all I wanted to do as a little kid was turn my computer back on and resume last night's riveting game of The Sims.

For those of you who have never built a home in the virtual land of SimCity, let me explain. The Sims is a life simulation computer game where you could make your own characters (aka Sims), build their homes, and manage their finances.

I probably spent two or three hours every night on the game, creating queer families with two, three, sometimes four parents in the household. Since I went to Catholic school and grew up in a religious family, The Sims was a safe space to explore my identity.

In the original Sims game, families had to pay their bills every three days, and failure to pay bills on time would result in a decline in your Sim's mood. In later versions, a repo-man would come to collect items from the Sims' home if they didn't pay their bills on time.
