Sims 4 How to Activate Relationship Cheats?

[keyword]

Building relationships in The Sims 4 can be a time-consuming process; it takes several in-game days to develop friendships or romantic connections. Fortunately, cheats can expedite this process and make someone fall for you almost instantly. To use them in your game, you first need to activate the cheat feature.

These cheats also allow you to enhance friendships and even adjust relationships with pets.

How to Enable the Sims 4 Relationship Cheats?

To utilize cheats in The Sims 4, you’ll need to turn on the cheat option. This can be easily done by following the instructions for your specific console:

  • If you’re on PC, press Ctrl + Shift + C.
  • If you’re using a Mac, press Command + Shift + C.
  • If you’re playing on Xbox or PlayStation, press all the trigger buttons simultaneously.

Following this step, a pop-up box will show on your screen. Type in testingcheats true or testingcheats on, then hit enter. The game will confirm that cheats are now active.

If you want to turn off cheats, simply enter testingcheats false or testingcheats off in the same pop-up box. You can then proceed to input your desired cheats.

The Sims 4 Friendship Cheat

You can boost your friendship levels by adjusting their set values. Likewise, you can lower friendship using the same cheat. Below are the available friendship cheats:

Increase Friendship Cheat

This cheat allows you to elevate the friendship level between two Sims by any number you desire between 0 and 100. The cheat looks like this:

ModifyRelationship Sim1 Sim2 Amount LTR_Friendship_Main

The PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game utilize the same cheats rather than button combinations.

You won’t be able to copy and paste the cheat as is; instead, replace Sim1 with the name of your currently controlled sim and Sim2 with the name of the sim whose friendship you want to increase. For the Amount, pick any value from 0 to 100.

The selected value will determine how full your friendship bar appears. If you pick 60, the bar will reflect 60% fullness. If your next entry is 80, the bar will advance an additional 20%. An example of an actual cheat would be:

ModifyRelationship Sim1Sim2 60 LTR_Friendship_Main

Decrease Friendship Cheat

If you wish to lower your friendship level with someone in The Sims 4, use this cheat:

ModifyRelationship Sim1Sim2 -50 LTR_Friendship_Main

The cheat structure remains the same as the one used for increasing friendship; however, you need to enter a negative value. For instance, if you enter -50, it will reduce the friendship gauge to 50.

Relationship Cheat Not Working In The Sims 4?

If the relationship cheats we’ve discussed are unresponsive, there are several troubleshooting steps you can take to remedy the situation.

  • Your Sim typically has three names assigned in the game, and sometimes cheats do not function correctly if your Sim retains all three names. The remedy is to erase one of the names to resolve the issue.
  • Should your issue persist after removing a name, try renaming your Sim to “Billybob” and deleting the second name as well. This should fix the problem in most cases.
  • As a last resort, you can reload your game; occasionally, the game may glitch and hinder the operation of cheats.
