UI Cheats Extension: frequently asked questions

A free Sims 4 mod by weerbesu. Instead of typing a cheat code, you click or right-click the panel you want to change: the money counter, a needs bar, a skill bar, a relationship.

It runs on the base game, with no packs needed. Every feature, panel by panel.

Yes, and you don't have to join anything or pledge. Patreon lists the release post as unpaid, with a zero minimum pledge to view.

Paying weerbesu is optional and supports the work, but it won't get you a different file.

Yes, if it's the author's own file, and the mod's been around since June 2015. His release post had 19,818 likes and 3,691 comments on 4 November 2026.

Copies on file-host sites and mod aggregators are riskier. Nobody's checking what's inside those, and they're usually out of date. Here's how to tell a genuine download from a reupload.

None of these are in the author's feature list: renaming a Sim, editing lot traits, resetting or killing a Sim, setting a death type, controlling a pregnancy, adding a moodlet, and changing game speed.

You still type commands for those. The full Sims 4 cheat code list has them by category.

Into the Mods folder under Documents, not the game's install directory. One subfolder is fine; two is too deep for the script file.

The paths and the rest of the steps are on how to install UI Cheats, or the Mac version.

Partly. One of the two files is a .ts4script, which is a script mod, and the other is an ordinary .package.

That's why you have to switch on Script Mods Allowed in Game Options and restart the game. It's also why the mod can't run on a console.

No. The very first release needed it, and weerbesu dropped the requirement in v1.1 in June 2015.

Typed cheat codes are a separate matter: most of them still need testingcheats true first. See how to enable cheats in The Sims 4.

The newest build is v1.59.1. Check the version history for one made for the new patch. The game has been on patch 1.129.39 since 27 October 2026, which weerbesu hasn't confirmed for this build yet.

When a new build lands, delete both old files rather than renaming them, because the author asks for exactly one copy in the Mods folder. Until then, nothing you install fixes the mismatch.

No. One of the two UI Cheats files is a script mod, and The Sims 4 won't load any of those on a console. There's no console version and no workaround.

You use the built-in cheat console instead: what you can do on console.

Yes. The author says UI Cheats only conflicts with other mods that override the same interface resources, and that it doesn't conflict with script mods or tuning mods. MC Command Center is a script mod, and two independent guides report the pair running together.

How the two compare, and what a real conflict looks like.
