The Sims 4 cheat guide allows you to bypass the pesky grid laws entirely, so you can construct your dream house on any terrain, grid system or not.
With these cheats, you can remove any and all restrictions on how close you can build a property to other structures, as well as the grid system. The grid system divides everything in The Sims 4 into neat squares. Although this can provide you with a neat framework to work with, Maxis’s silly rules can frustrate your painstaking creation.
Using the Sims 4 Free Build cheat, you can construct whatever you want, wherever you like. You can build Strangerville in just a few easy steps, no matter what terrain you have. Want a densely packed neighborhood? Here’s how.
Activating The Free Build Cheat
The Sims 4 cheats are enabled by opening the cheat console and following these simple steps:
- The Sims 4 PC cheats: Hold Ctrl and Shift, then press c
- The Sims 4 Mac cheats: Hold Command (⌘) and Shift, then press c
- The Sims 4 PS4 cheats: Hold down all shoulder buttons at once
- The Sims 4 Xbox One cheats: Hold down all four shoulder buttons at once
At the top of the screen, you should see a text box where you can enter any cheat codes you want, including the free build.
If you want to achieve the aesthetic you want in Sims 4, building can be tricky and time-consuming. It can also be expensive.
