I don't have sims 3 yet, Dec, but a lot of those aren't S2 cheats.

Example:

Sims 2 cheat: boolProp snapObjectsToGrid true/false
Sims 3 cheat: disableSnappingToSlotsOnAlt [on or off]

Sims 2 cheat: showHeadlines on/off
Sims 3 cheat: hideHeadlineEffects [on or off]

and if there is a house you like for your sims juts type the cheat free realestate.

I haven't tried them all but I know some of them work. You don't need boolprop anymore with the sims 3 though.

testingcheatsenabled true

this allows you to shift click mailbox to max ur needs, make them static, and choose career(note: using the career option won't complete your lifetime wish).  Also you can shift click sim and have them grow up.

Forgot to also add you can have your sim selected and anywhere in neighborhood you can shift click ground and have them teleport their, nice when ur out collecting.

One thing to keep in mind when you shift+click an unselectable Sim:

If you do plan to make the unselectable Sim selectable to check the needs and wishes, you won't be able to unselect the Sim again. The "Make Selectable" option in Sims 3 is not the same as in Sims 2, meaning that in Sims 2, you can make a Sim selectable to adjust the needs, check the wants/fears and personality and then make the Sim unselectable. In Sims 3, that option makes the previously unselectable Sim a permanent member of your current household.

I found this out the hard way when I made Don Lothario selectable to check him out and had no option to make him unselectable because I unwittingly made him a permanent member of my Sim's household.

So, do be careful with the "Make Selectable" option when you shift+click a visiting Sim.

Also do you have to press Shift+CTRL+ C at the same time?

[Chaavik]

Shift+Control+C brings up the command window just like in Sims 2. Shift+Control+Click lets you bring up the pie menu of hidden options on an object or a Sim just like in Sims 2.

BUT the commands are subtly different for Sims 3 because boolprop isn't needed to use the commands.

*Shift* Ctrl C and then type help and the cheat list comes up.  If you do that while in CAS you get two extra cheats in the window, 1. The option to make your son or daughter into an NPC ... I forgot the other one
