Key Takeaways

  • Activating the Debug Console
  • Fairy Occult Transformation & Create-A-Sim Overrides
  • Naturopath Career Progression Cheats

In game development, cheats have evolved from simple debugging overrides into an essential component of the player-facing sandbox experience. While competitive games actively suppress cheats to protect the integrity of match outcomes, life simulation titles like The Sims 4 treat them as design-enablers. By giving players access to developer-level console commands, the designers at Maxis allow users to bypass progression gates, tailor narrative arcs, and debug complex system states in real time.

With the release of The Sims 4: Enchanted by Nature expansion, a host of new systems have been introduced: the Naturopath career (featuring Lifestyle Coach and Apothe-curist branches), Fae Occult rankings, and Apothecary/Natural Living skills.

This guide provides a comprehensive list of the new console commands, analyses the mechanics of occult state transitions, and presents a design overview of sandbox balancing.

Activating the Debug Console

Before any specific cheats can be executed, the console wrapper must be initialized. In The Sims 4, this represents moving the engine state from the standard player sandbox into a developer override mode:

1. Open the Cheat Console:

  • PC/Mac: Press `Ctrl` + `Shift` + `C` on your keyboard.
  • Xbox/PlayStation: Hold down all four shoulder buttons (L1, L2, R1, R2) simultaneously.

2. Enable Cheats: Type `testingcheats true` in the text box that appears at the top left of the screen and press Enter.

This step is critical because it tells the simulation engine to listen for command arguments that directly modify Sim properties, career tracks, and skills.

Fairy Occult Transformation & Create-A-Sim Overrides

In previous expansions (like Vampires or Werewolves), developers included direct cheat codes to toggle occult status on and off. However, in Enchanted by Nature, there is no direct console cheat to instantly transform a regular Sim into a Fairy Sim.

Instead, systems designers leveraged the Create-a-Sim (CAS) edit-mode pipeline. By enabling the full editor, players can bypass the gameplay quest-lines and directly change a Sim's occult status.

To perform this override:

1. Enable cheats with `testingcheats true`.

2. Type `cas.fulleditmode` into the console and hit Enter.

3. Shift-click the Sim you want to edit and select Edit in CAS.

4. In the Create-a-Sim menu, locate the occult status selector in the top-left corner and set it to Fairy.

Additionally, if you want to unlock all the hidden fairy outfits and custom items in the Create-a-Sim editor immediately without completing the corresponding in-game achievements, use the following unlock tag:

  • `cas.unlockbytag EP19`

Naturopath Career Progression Cheats

The expansion introduces the Naturopath career track, which focuses on diagnosing and curing Sim ailments. As Sims progress, the career branches into two distinct specializations: Lifestyle Coach and Apothe-curist.

To debug or advance this career path instantly, use the following codes:

Career CommandActionSystemic Description
`careers.add_career Naturopath`Join Naturopath CareerRegisters the active Sim on the Naturopath career track.
`careers.promote Naturopath`Promote SimAdvances the Sim to the next tier of the Naturopath path.
`careers.demote Naturopath`Demote SimReverts the Sim to the previous tier of the Naturopath path.
`careers.retire Naturopath`Retire SimRemoves the Sim from the career, providing a daily pension.

Skill and XP Debugging

Two major skills are introduced in Enchanted by Nature: Apothecary (creating herbal remedies and curing ailments) and Natural Living (the science of living off-grid and cultivating magical plants). Maxing these out naturally requires hours of harvesting and crafting, but they can be bypassed for testing using the following command inputs:

  • Master Apothecary Skill: `stats.set_skill_level Major_Apothecary 10`
  • Master Natural Living Skill: `stats.set_skill_level Skill_NLS 10`

Fairy XP and Rankings

Fairy Sims progress through five ranks of magical proficiency. As they gain XP, they unlock new abilities and fairy perks. If you want to skip the progression loops, you can set their Fae XP directly using the ranked statistic commands:

  • Fae Rank 1 (Initiate): `stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP 0`
  • Fae Rank 2: `stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP 500`
  • Fae Rank 3: `stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP 1500`
  • Fae Rank 4: `stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP 3000`
  • Fae Rank 5 (Grand Fae): `stats.set_stat rankedStatistic_FairyOccult_FairyXP 4500`

Traits and Reward Manipulation

Traits define a Sim's personality and their interaction weights in the social simulation. Enchanted by Nature introduces three personality traits (Disruptive, Mystical, Plant Lover) and several reward traits earned by completing occult quests. These can be added (`traits.equip_trait`) or removed (`traits.remove_trait`) directly via console commands:

Personality Traits

  • Disruptive: `traits.equip_trait trait_Rogue` / `traits.remove_trait trait_Rogue`
  • Mystical: `traits.equip_trait trait_Mystical` / `traits.remove_trait trait_Mystical`
  • Plant Lover: `traits.equip_trait trait_Plantlover` / `traits.remove_trait trait_Plantlover`
  • High Fae Lineage: `traits.equip_trait HighFaeLineage` / `traits.remove_trait HighFaeLineage`

Reward Traits

  • Nature's Best Bud: `traits.equip_trait NaturesBestBud` / `traits.remove_trait NaturesBestBud`
  • Pill Specialist (Natural Medicine): `traits.equip_trait trait_NaturalMeds_HealsWithPills` / `traits.remove_trait trait_NaturalMeds_HealsWithPills`
  • Initiation into Pixieland: `traits.equip_trait trait_FairyStories_Initiation_IntoThePixieland` / `traits.remove_trait trait_FairyStories_Initiation_IntoThePixieland`
  • Light Path (Light Pixie): `traits.equip_trait LightPath_LightPixie` / `traits.remove_trait LightPath_LightPixie`
  • Dark Path (Dark Pixie): `traits.equip_trait DarkPath_DarkPixie` / `traits.remove_trait DarkPath_DarkPixie`
  • Problem Fairy: `traits.equip_trait trait_ProblemFairy` / `traits.remove_trait trait_ProblemFairy`

Death Overrides

Enchanted by Nature adds two new death states for fairies: Death by Emotional Starvation and Death by Emotional Overload. Currently, only one has a direct console cheat to apply the ghost trait:

  • Ghost of Emotional Starvation: `traits.equip_trait trait_ghost_EmotionalStarvation`
  • Remove Starvation Ghost State: `traits.remove_trait trait_ghost_EmotionalStarvation`

By equipping this trait, you instantly transform your living Sim into a ghost that exhibits the specific behavior patterns and visual effects associated with dying from fae emotional neglect.
