How to Use Cheats in The Sims 4: Adventure Awaits
Before you dive into the fun with cheats, you’ll need to enable testing cheats. While not every cheat requires this step, it is a good practice as most do depend on it.
To enable testing cheats: Press Ctrl + Shift + C on PC/Mac or hold all four shoulder buttons simultaneously on Xbox/PlayStation. This action opens the cheat console where you should type in testingcheats true. After doing so, you will receive a notification confirming that cheats are now enabled. You can enter additional cheats from the list provided below by simply typing them in and hitting enter.
Once you’re finished and wish to disable testing cheats, repeat the process and type testingcheats false. Again, you will receive a notification that cheats are disabled.
Using console and debug cheats in The Sims 4 is generally safe since these features are designed by the developers. Although the worst-case scenario is usually a cheat not functioning, it’s sensible to back up your game saves periodically to mitigate any risks.
Skill Cheats in Adventure Awaits
The Adventure Awaits expansion introduces the most skills we’ve seen in a recent add-on, featuring four brand-new abilities that align with the summer camp experience. Although primarily designed for younger Sims, all players can enjoy these new skills.
To instantly increase a Sim’s skill level, use the corresponding cheat below, replacing [X] with your desired skill value:
| Skill | Cheat | Value Range of [X] |
|---|---|---|
| Archery | stats.set_skill_level skill_Archery [X] | 1-5 |
| Diving | stats.set_skill_level Diving [X] | 1-5 |
| Entomology | stats.set_skill_level Entomology [X] | 1-5 |
| Papercraft | stats.set_skill_level Major_Papercraft [X] | 1-10 |
It’s important to note that Archery, Diving, and Entomology are classified as minor skills, with a maximum of five levels.Papercraft, however, is a major skill with an extensive range of ten mastery levels.
Career Cheats in Adventure Awaits
This expansion also introduces the Park Worker career for adult Sims, marking a first for the franchise. While reminiscent of the Ranger role from The Sims 2: Castaway, it functions here as a full career path.
