M&G setQuarterTilePlacement on/off new decorating "cheat"
Cerridwen:
setQuarterTilePlacement [on | off]
After entering this cheat in the cheat window, you then turn quarter tile placement on and off using "Ctrl + F" anytime you are in Build or Buy Mode.
This "cheat" breaks up the grid into 4 sections letting you move objects closer together/centering them without having to do the boolprop snapobjectstogrid true/false command all the time.
It's really cool for decorating - looks like they are tying to emulate the quarter grids that are supposed to be in Sims 3?
Jelenedra:
This feature was included in... Pets? It's a carry-over.

Hmm, I thought the earlier cheat one was about floor tiles. This seems to be about objects.
Jelenedra:
RAKE IN DA FACE!
That's what I get for commenting before having the Stuffeth Pack myself.
Cerridwen:
Yes to clarify this is not the floor tile cheat from pets.
This cheat will allow you to place objects 4 to a single grid (with moveobjects on) or move an object a 1/4 tile over.
It is more like boolprop snapobjectstogrid false, yet still keeps them on grid. Its great for centering a 2 tile coffee table or TV with a 3 tile couch.
It seems to work for most objects and sims still use them correctly such as toilets and sinks. Some objects will need tweeking - I tried to use it on a table and chairs and while it allowed me to move the table and chairs a 1/4 tile over, if the chairs are not still a grid apart it will leave the chair in a "pushed out" state.
Rugs do not seem to be affected by this cheat. I had the cheat activated and was still only able to move them a full grid space.
Here is a link to a video I made of it - you can see first the coffee table move with out the cheat, then with the cheat, then again with out.
