Add or remove Sentiments in The Sims 4 with these Cheats!
Ever wanted to give your Sims in The Sims 4 instant Sentiments without the extra hassle? Well, now you can! These are the Base Game Sentiment Cheats for The Sims 4.
To apply the Sentiment cheats, you'll have to do some extra steps, considering that these cheats are very complex. Luckily, you won't be needing any mods or anything - just some extra patience.
[ This guide was updated on 01/12/2026 by Callum Bowyer to include new Sentiment Pack Cheats]

How to Apply Sentiment Cheats
Open up the cheat console (CTRL + Shift + C on PC / L1+R1+L2+R2 on Consoles)
Make sure you've enabled testingcheats true - for consoles it's necessary to have this cheat because of the Achievements progress
Type in modifyrelationshipfirstname lastname firstname2 lastname2 100 (the firstname lastname instances should be replaced with actual Sims names of who you want the Sentiments to be applied to)
Paste the Sentiments cheat codes from the list below
Before I continue with the full list of Sentiments and their Cheat tags, here's how the full cheat should look like between two Sims - Raj Rasoya and Geeta Rasoya. The sentiment will be applied only to the Sim whose first and last name you've entered first (in this example it's Raj Rasoya):
Here's the full list of Sentiment Code tags that you can apply to Sims! Remember, make sure you replace the name tags with actual Sim names and the Sentiment Tag with the Sentiment Cheat Tag listed in the list below! Tip, you can also remove a Sentiment through the cheat by typing -100 instead of 100!
Positive Sentiments
Positive Sentiments are split into 5 categories, including Adoring, Close, Enamored, Motivating, and Crush. If you have The Sims 4 Adventure Awaits installed, then you will also have access to Childhood-specific Sentiments that can only be gained in Childhood, but can be applied using cheats to Sims aged Teen and older.
Negative Sentiments are split into 5 categories, including Bitter, Hurt, Furious, and Guilty. As with positive sentiment categories, negative sentiments also have Childhood-specific Sentiments that can only be gained in Childhood.
This is so wonderful! Thank you so much. One of my sims got the hurt sentiment (no idea why!) and so I was able to remove it and I’ve been able to add much needed sentiments to the family. Happy days! Kudos to you! It’s made me feel I can play the game without worrying about lack of or bad sentiments. It’s so sad when you have a genealogy where to Grandparents have no feelings for their grandchild, but thanks to you I’ve been able to fix it!

Thank you! Can you public also Winter Escape Sentiments? On internet I founded the name of the sentiment but not the cheat for it.

It’s still working for me. Be very careful with each letter/number or spaces you put in the code. It’s crucial or it won’t work, Hope that helps. 🙂

It will not work no matter what. I am honestly thinking about just exiting without saving at this point.

Same, doesn’t work. No matter which sentiment code I try it always says “Invalid value for track_type: ‘<sentiment code>’ (No names matched ‘<sentiment code>’.)”

It’s the way people, including the Devs, completely forgot about Secrets (besides TurboDriver). Too bad. Hopefully, they add some things and gameplay with secrets.
