Okay, so there is one place to put regular cheats so they'll be active on startup and another for the aliases? Well that's pretty important information! I've been trying to put it all in the userstartup.cheat and had no idea about this globalstartup! *sigh* I'll change it tonight when I get home and see if that fixes it. I wouldn't worry about it so much except I do type in some of these things every single frickin time I play the game. *muttering* Here I was thinking I was doing it all wrong...

If it helps you any, the only thing in my userStartup.cheat file is;
userShaders true
But that's to give you a guideline. dunner points out 3 other things you can put in that file that will work. My method is an alternative. Also, I want to stress that with my method you still have to enter commands in the cheat window when you play the game, you just don't have to enter the longer original versions of these commands. So, for example, there is no need to type 'moveobjects on', all you need to do is type 'm'. That single letter should do the same thing. You seem to get this, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.
Another tip for you, do you know if you use the up arrow key in your cheat window, all the commands you have made in the game so far will appear one after another? Just make sure you click on the command line or it won't work.
peace

I do know most of that and I'd found a guide showing how to write out the aliases but it didn't say to put them in globalstartup and the beginning of it was userstartup so I understandably thought they both went in the same file.

Great, so you seem to have all the info you need then. At the risk of sounding like a repeating grandmother, make sure you find the globalStartup.cheat file in your most recent expansion pack Config file.
C/Program Files/EA GAMES/*recent expansion pack*/TSData/Res/Config
For anyone else reading this, if you are unsure what your most recent expansion is, check the disk you use when you play the game. That will tell you.
Also, remember to change it if another expansion pack comes out in the future. You don't necassarily have to remove it from the existing file, I noticed my Nightlife globalStartup.cheat file still has the changes and it hasn't affected my game. The important thing is making sure it's in the most recent, like I keep saying. And make sure you wear a warm scarf when it's cold out deary! LOL

ps- Dizi, please let me know if this worked.

for some reason I can't mount mine now hmmmm
Dizi:
Sorry, real life got in the way last night and I didn't have time to pull up the game. I'll try tonight and tell you the results. Unless something else happens.
