Sims 2 Issue with entering cheat codes.

Solved/Closed
Volcanik -  
Hello,

I just bought The Sims 2 Deluxe on PC. When I press CTRL + SHIFT + C it takes a screenshot and the window where I can enter codes does not appear!! And here is what is said:

• To enter cheat codes in The Sims 2, first open the command console by pressing simultaneously: Ctrl + Shift + C.

• If CTRL + SHIFT + C does not work:

For those who cannot bring up the box to enter the codes:

Cursor XP (or any other program using the ctrl+shift+c combination) is often the source of the problem. If you have "Cursor XP" installed on your computer, you need to disable it!

"Cursor XP" uses the same key combination for the shortcut (ctrl+shift+c) which conflicts with Sims 2.

To disable Cursor XP:
Go to "mouse settings"
- Cursor XP tab
- Options
- Preferences
- Disable the Cursor XP keyboard shortcut (clear the text)
[SuzieQ]

So I went into the mouse properties to disable Cursor XP and the keyboard shortcut as indicated, but nothing corresponds, I have a pointer tab and in the pointer options, I do not have any preferences???

Could you please guide me on the steps to follow? Note that I have Windows XP SP 2 Home.

Thank you for your response and have a great day everyone :)
Configuration: Windows XP Home Edition Internet Explorer 7.0

    Hello, I stumbled upon this by chance but I think I can help you. Here are the cheats for The Sims 2 on PC:

    CTRL + SHIFT +

    help: Displays cheat codes
    motherlode: + 50,000 Simoleons
    kaching: + 1,000 Simoleons.
    aging on/off: "On" stops the aging of Sims and "off" restarts it
    moveobjects on/off: Allows you to move objects and place them in forbidden spots, or move them while they are in use, or even delete them. Very useful for a quick tidy-up of the house, but to be used cautiously.

    There you go, I hope this helps you!

    Re :

    Here is the solution for anyone who has the same problem.

    Do not press the 3 at the same time.

    First, press the Ctrl + Shift keys and then press the C key.

    Have fun playing everyone!

        There is no code; what you need to enter is the code you want to set as maxmotives, which is used to fill your Sims' needs bars completely, okay?

        Hello!

        I believe that 2 of the codes for The Sims 2 Deluxe PC are:
        motherlode to increase the person's aspiration
        and kaching to earn 1000 simoleons!
        Then after each code, you can repeat the "!" and use ";" to enter another one, but I’m not sure if all these codes are currently valid. There you go, and have fun playing!!!

        1. mary

            1. alex 27
              I have all the codes:

              --Motherlode: +50000$
              --Kaching: +1000
              --maxMotives: boosts your Sims' mood
              --Moveobjects on to move all objects and then Moveobjects off to deactivate it
              --help: all the codes
              --BoolProp: but that one doesn't work, unfortunately, and I don't know what it's for!!
              --expand: enlarge the code box, that's useful!!
              --exit: remove the cartridge (also useful)
              --ShowHeadlines (on or off): removes the bubbles when they think or talk!!!
              and finally Plumbbobtoggle: removes the green gem above the Sims!!

              ps: you must respect the capitalization!!! otherwise the codes won't work properly, and I hope you'll be happy with all the codes I've given you, and I'd appreciate it if you could reply to let me know you received them, just so I know they got to you, and sorry for all this blah blah

              goodbye!!

                  Ben, the code for The Sims 2 Deluxe is "motherlode" with an "e" at the end, and it's for getting 50,000 simoleons.

                  IL FAUT ÉCRIRE BoolProp TestingCheatsEnabled true et après on fait maj plus clic sur un sim et on va sur définir aspiration* et on entre max. et ça va mettre la jauge du sim à max (platine).

                2. hello kiti
                  To get money, there are: -motherlode: +50,000 or kaching +1,000, and to get the motives gauge, use maxmotives! It really works well! (p.s.: these codes are for The Sims 2 on PC)

                      @aurel du 51370Hi
                      I think I have Charlene's problem, the one where when I press Shift + Ctrl + C it takes a screenshot.
                      So I tried these keys without starting The Sims 2 and I see HP Check appear. I have Vista, and I was wondering if I could remove it so I could use the codes, but I don't know if I can actually remove it. I think the problem is due to this because someone above says the same thing with the mouse pointer.
                      That's it :p
                      Please answer me
                      Have a good evening

                    I just bought The Sims 2: Bon Voyage, but I can't seem to bring up the cheat bar. I've deleted cursorXP, but it doesn't work.

                    Hoping someone will respond.

                      If you can't get the cheat bar to work in The Sims 2 on PC, you need to do this many times: press Ctrl + Shift + C and it will give you my MSN address, please use this:
