This cheat removes footprint limitation for all object placement in Buy Mode and
Build Mode. Removes limitations placed on hand tool for when objects are in use,
or are normally non-movable objects. Is known to cause issues with game
elements, routing, hidden object generation and manipulation, etc.
Note that using this cheat allows you to delete objects that normally cannot be
deleted, such as Sims, the mailbox, and the garbage can. If you delete these
objects, there is no way to get them back, so be careful!

aging -on = Turns aging of sims on.

Prevents Sims from aging. This can disrupt the carefully tuned gameplay balance,
and will prevent little Johnny from ever growing up, so treat this cheat with care as
well.

autoPatch -on = Turns game autoupdate on.
autoPatch -off = Tuens game autoupdate off.
This cheat lets you re-enable notifications when there is a game update available
for The Sims 2. Just turn Autopatch on and go to the Custom Content Browser (the
little snowflake button on the UCP in the neighborhood). If thereÆs an update
available youÆll be asked whether you want to download it.

slowMotion # = Make you set the game speed. (# = 0 to 8, 0 is normal)
The slowMotion cheat takes one parameter: the "slowness" setting (such as
slowMotion 4). This value ranges from 0 to 8 where 0 is normal speed and 8 is the
slowest speed.

boolProp enablePostProcessing true = Turns Postprocessing on.
boolProp enablePostProcessing false = Tuens Postprocessing off.
This will enable the use of postprocessing cheats (see below) very useful
for movie making (also see below). Please note that you must have a video card
that can handle pixel shaders in order to successfully use this cheat. If you use the
cheats and you donÆt have pixel shaders, the screen will most likely go partially
dark, and will not come back until you turn off enablePostProcessing. If you turn
on postprocessing, and you turn on cinematics, and a cinematic plays, you may
also experience unwanted graphical glitches.

To use the following cheats, you must have "PostProcessing" enabled!
