How to Install and Use UI Cheats Extension in The Sims 4

Fortunately, installing this extension is quick and straightforward as long as you can access the internet and your mods folder. Below is a complete step-by-step for downloading the UI cheats extension in The Sims 4:

  1. Head to Weerbesu’s UI Cheats Extension Patron page and download the zip file above the comment section.
  2. Extract UI Cheats Extension into your The Sims 4 mods folder.
    • The default directory is Documents/Electronic Arts/The Sims 4/Mods.
  3. Launch The Sims 4 and turn on Enable Custom Content and Script Mods by heading into Options > Other.
  4. Restart your game after enabling Script Mods.

Once you restart the game, the mod menu will appear on startup, showing your newly installed mods. The UI Cheats Extension will appear under custom content and script mods, confirming that you successfully installed the mod.

Tip:

If The Sims 4 recently had a game update, you may have to wait until Weerbesu updates the extension before it works. In situations like this, many mods become incompatible with the game’s latest version, causing them to break.

After confirming you have UI Cheats Extension downloaded and installed, you can now start using the mod to spawn in money, fulfill your Sim’s needs, or even modify friendships with others. Unlike the Sims cheat box, the UI Cheats Extension lets you click on your money or Sim, or you need to instantly change them, saving you time figuring out and memorizing commands.
