Compatibility notes
Which releases these codes apply to, and where one behaves differently. Each note links to the source that documents it.
- Legacy Collection (2025) GamesRadar says some cheats from the original game are not valid in the re-release, and its Legacy list keeps only codes it confirmed. It also says move_objects on no longer lets you delete a Sim directly in Buy or Build Mode. GamesRadar+: The Sims 1 Legacy Collection cheats and codes for PC
- Unpatched original release The Sims Wiki lists klapaucius as the money code for the unpatched game only. On a patched game, rosebud is the code to use. The Sims Wiki: The Sims/cheats
- move_objects on The Sims Wiki warns that this cheat can delete objects a lot needs, like the mailbox, the carpool and the spots where Sims and cars enter and leave. It suggests using it in Build Mode, because Buy Mode in The Sims has no Undo. The Sims Wiki: The Sims/cheats
- interests The Sims Wiki says this code shows only the interests from the base game. Interests added by the Hot Date expansion don't appear. The Sims Wiki: The Sims/cheats
