Testing cheats mode
Press [CTRL] [SHIFT] C during game play to display the console window. Enter boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true to activate testing cheats mode. This is a very powerful cheat that enables many new things. In Create A Sim, after enabling this code, go into debugmode by pressing [Shift] N before making a Sim. You now have the following new things in Create A Sim: skin tones, clothing, and some other options such as viewing the skinfilenames. In the game itself, after enabling this code, hold [Shift] and left click on a Sim to have lots of options, such as changing clothes, make your Sim fat or thin, set their aspiration level, etc. This code also can spawn some interesting items, such as the tombstone of Life and Death, and family members.
Enable the boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true code then go onto a different family. A strange code will appear at the top right hand corner. If you go onto the Sims' needs, you can click on each one and drag it up or down, whichever desired. You can also increase the skill points of your Sims in the same way. This is useful if you want a promotion, if your Sim is depressed, if you are teaching a toddler to walk, etc. You can also hold [Shift] and click on a Sim. Click on "More", then "Spawn" and create the Tombstone of L and D. You can click on this, then "More" then "Make everyone here friends with me", which helps if you need friends to get promoted, or to complete an aspiration task.
Baby Sim Modder
Enable the "boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true" code, then hold [Shift] and click your Sim. Go to spawn a new object called "Sim Modder", which is a little baby. This baby can make it so that all, you, or another Sim gets complete aspiration points, motives, or even gain friends. The baby also can change your aspiration to a new hidden aspiration known as "Grilled Cheese Aspiration", where your Sims want to do nothing more than to focus their entire life around Grilled Cheese sandwiches.
