Andygal:
pardon my stupidity but how exactly do you set up a startup cheat file?

sara_dippity:
Copy the above text, starting with and including the # sign, ending with and including the very last ". Then paste it onto notepad, and save it as userStartup.cheat in your Documents/EA/config folder. The cheats above mean that you don't have to enter boolProp allow45DegreeAngleOfRotation true if you want to rotate something (if you don't have Uni, cut this bit out), just hit the ,. keys. Also your tv volume will not be blaring (it might not be needed in Nightlife, I haven't tested that), and instead of entering "moveobjects on" you enter "m" and to turn it off you enter "m-". Likewise with the other aliases, I won't list them all, just read the file. If you want to edit the file, when you open it select notepad as the program and do not associate it to "always use this program to open this kind of file".  Make sure that box is unchecked. It might not cause problems with your game now (or it might) but no telling what a future patch to windows or The Sims 2 might do.

I didn't know about this "alias" thing, that will come in handy.  Do the letters used have to be those ones or can they be anything you want?

Can you give the exact path to the config folder?  Is it in My Documents\EA Games\The Sims 2, or Program Files\EA Games\The Sims 2? 

Thanks,
Karen

Yes.  The folder is Config, it's in there - userStartup.  Just click it to open it, add what you want and save it.
