The Sims 2 Cheats - PS2 - Activating Cheats in The Sims 2
I had to bring this post back into the light, since I'm still getting tons of emails on how to activate the gnome in the Sims 2. It is a fairly simple process if you follow the instructions provided on the cheat pages. Please let me know if you have a better alternative way to explain it. Thanks!
The Sims 2 on the PlayStation 2 console has a bunch of cheat codes available. These cheats allow you to fill all motives, get 9,999 Simoleons, set the skill level for any Sim, unlock all recipes, object, lots, locations, clothing, and more. The problem is, you have to activate the 'Cheat Gnome' in order to use any of these cheats.
Using cheats in The Sims 2 is brutally easy, you just have to activate the Gnome first. I have outlined the whole process a bit more clearly on The Sims 2 PS2 Cheats page, since my wording was a bit vague before.
Incidently, if you need cheats for The Sims 2 on any other platform, including the PC expansions, take a look at the Top Sims 2 Cheats page, which lists the cheats for every version of The Sims 2.

i was wondering if theres a cheat to get the screen removed when taking showers etc.. for ps2 please help and what about the aging process??? umm a littel confused here graetl apperciated if you can help me….thanks brittany
I press pause and I try to enter the gnome code! But I NEVER see the gnome!
Look for the Gnome by the mailbox after entering the code.
Oh my gosh!
All day I have been searching google as it is my little sisters birthday and she just bought the Sims 2 PS2 and I wanted to know the cheats BUT(here is the problem)
When i do the gnome activation cheat it doesn’t work so I left for 5 min and came back and looked at the mailbox and around it.
On the side was a weird statue looking thing with that /\
\/ weird shape on top of it but my sims cant interact with it so i did what you said with the gnome cheat and then the other cheats but my sims still couldn’t interact with it and yes I did it will the game was on pause.
Sorry, THE WEIRD SHAPE ON TOP OF THE STATUE IS>>
/\

Confused Lauren if u enter the other cheats quickly and go to the gnome, you press X it will show u your activations!
i can get the gnome next to the mail box, but i don’t know how 2 get the cheats working.
plz answer bak quik!!
Meya, after you have the gnome there, enter the codes for some of the cheats you would like to apply, then interact with the gnome and you will be able to activate and deactivate the ones that were entered correctly.
umm ive got the gnome but after ive entered the cheats they never come up and arnt working…tell me how 2 activate the gnome i need 2 no thanks x

x
i cant get the gnome up! ive tried the code a few times on pause and i just dont know how to get it! and it really confuses me because im already holding down L1….help?!
Does anyone actually answer these things?
I answer these when i can, but I’m not sure what else to do for some of the people that are having issues with the gnome. I’ve outlined the steps in quite a few areas, including this article here (http://vgstrategies.about.com/od/ps2cheatscodest/ss/TheSims2CheatGn.htm). Perhaps if someone knows a better way to explain it they can post it here, or shoot me an email and I’ll post it for you. Thanks.
Hey there I am so stuck and yes it is miley cyrus! erm what is the money cheat code?? please tell me cos i cant get past the hard bits! I am rubbish on the PS2!
Cyah please add it too your page!
luvv
x Miles x
is there a special way to enter the codes or something like that
To those who already get the Gnome:
I don’t get it when everyone said ” pause the game “! Is it pressing L1 button or is it entering the menu by pressing start button or is it when saving game??? the problem is, when you hold L1 to pause, and press other button for the code, the curso keep moving (like: from other char as press R2…) and same when in menu. Only when saving game that we can enter the code without messing the curso. So, what does everyone mean by “pause the game” ????
I JUST GOT CHEAT CODES COULD YOU HELP ME WITH MY PROBLEM PLEASE?

umm , hi , y i cant active the Gnome ? .. lol maybe its a wrong cheat ..
The Gnome cheat WORKS!:), if you follow the instructions precisely, however this may take a few tries. FIRST press pause using the START button, NOT L1, (holding L1 will prevent you from entering the code correctly)make sure you have the code copied down right and clearly so that you don’t have to search for the next symbol or lose your place, (taking too much time between each button will prevent it from recognizing the code). Have the code right in front of you and enter the code by pressing each button hard and individually, but making sure NOT to take time between striking each one. Be sure that you let go fully of each button before pressing the next so that they don’t overlap. Also, a problem I experienced was that my controller was sticking but not enough to be obvious during game-play, just enough to keep a button pressed for a milisecond and mess up my code. I changed controllers and alleviated the problem, (you can also take them apart and clean under the pads – sometimes dirty buttons cause sticking). You will know you’ve entered a code correctly when you hear a female sim sigh. When the gnome appears, (a translucent white diamond shape near the mailbox)and after you’ve entered your other codes, you can stand in front of it and press X (make sure your sim is lined up to it)and an option menu will appear.
Also, the Gnome code must be entered FIRST, before any other cheats or the other cheats won’t be activated.
on sims 2 -ps2- i am on storymode, 2 player and my sim walks around but she wont do anything like go to the toilet, bounce oin trampoline, watch tv, or interact with sims. Do i have to start again or is there something i can do? please answer…
Did I do the gnome code correctly when I:
-pressed start
-did the L1, R1, up, X and R2 quickly
-THEN I hear a male or gnome voice saying “ha ha ha” or “he he he” not loud.
Is this correct?
But when do you see the gnome thing? is it right after the code or do you have to wait?
And will the gnome thing be seen in every new locations or only where you started the game in story mode for example?
Hope for answer!
The sims2 on playstation2
Another question!!:
suddenly some of my codes are gone. When I try to do the “fill all motives” code again I don’t hear a sigh from a female voice. Instead I hear the gnome’s voice again like you hear when you do the gnome code. It only shows the money code now…
why can’t I do the same codes again?

When you enter the cheat for the gnome, dont enter it on pause, who ever told you that doesnt know what he is talking about. You go on it when you are playing.
First enter this = L1 L1 R1 X X UP
Then hold down triangle and do this = TRIANGLE DOWN RIGHT UP RIGHT DOWN RIGHT UP

How do you get rid of the blurry bits in the sims 2 pets please
Ok the gnome cheat explained……..
Play in Free play mode. press the start button. enter the cheat code. Hear the sigh? watch the statuette appear. walk up to it. stand still. enter the other codes. you will hear a sigh after every code. if not your hitting the wrong buttons. after entering the codes. Press the X button. Hey presto your all cheated up. Now for the tricky part….. NOT.
Save the game. go to story mode.
You have all the cheats already there. Now how difficult was that? I did it while stood on my head, making a cheese and sourdough sandwich….
Oh one more thing. I dont even play this game, my girlfriend does. And I managed to get it to work first time!
If this way does not work for you, you only have one more thing left to do. Sell it and move on!

I activated the cheat code and i waited by the letter box for ages and it never appeared!
what is da cheat 4 full motives and skill points cheat
i tried to enter the one cheat to do the others but i wouldn’t work
ANSWERS!!!
For those who are trying to just get the gnome at first. When you go to put in the code for the gnome you do NOT hold down the L1 button for pause you press the start button.
Also for all cheats you must put in the correct buttons in each phrase in under 3 seconds. So you HAVE to do it quickly or else the code will not activate.
i was wondering if there is a cheat to activite the gnome on sims 2 pets i keep tring all the cheat but when i go up to it to get money it keeps advanceing 6 hours could u please help
How do you help red find the silver screen idol?

ok when you type in the gnome cheat[L1, R1, up, X and R2]you dont pause you do it in game play.and to activate the other cheats you have to stand by the gnome and enter them in game play.ps the gnome dosent look like a gnome its a dimond statue.
sometimes the gnome works without pauseing the game
LISN I DIDNT PAUSE THE GAME AND IT STILL WORKD
also when u do cheats u always have to do the gnome cheat BEFORE u do the cheat
Thank you *Someone says”!!! After nearly 70 messages someone FINALLY answers the question, “do you have to enter the gnome code each and every time, or just the first time you activate it”! Sheesh! All these smart assed computer geek gurus here and not one person would speak simple english beyond “just enter the code dummy”. This isn’t the only forum for which that has stood true either, several others just reiterate the same snarky geekness re: getting the orignal gnome. And by the way, very few game experts have bothered to explain that you have to enter the codes quickly, and that it takes some digital dexterity to do so. I finally got the gnome up, but there IS a rhythm to it. I’ll let you know if I have any luck with the others now that I know you have to pre-enter the gnome cheat each time prior to the other cheats. Good luck all. (Ps, on the babies in PS2 thing, I’ve heard all over the internet that you can only get them in the PC version).
ok people this is the real cheats for gnome and money cheats not kinding L1 L1 R1 triangle up left down right
tip (do not pause when doing cheats)
