Swim in the ground
Make sure your land is flat, buy a swimming pool (any size) and then hold down Ctrl and shift and C. A box will appear and you will need to type move_objects on. After you type that press enter (duh) and then get your sim to swim in the pool. When they are in the pool, go into buy mode, pick up your sim (cool if you havn't learnt to do this already) and drag them somewhere other than the pool. e.g. bring them into the kitchen. They will continue to swim even though they are in the ground. Have fun!

for movie making (also see below). Please note that you must have a video card
that can handle pixel shaders in order to successfully use this cheat. If you use the
cheats and you donĘt have pixel shaders, the screen will most likely go partially
dark, and will not come back until you turn off enablePostProcessing. If you turn
on postprocessing, and you turn on cinematics, and a cinematic plays, you may
also experience unwanted graphical glitches.
To use the following cheats, you must have "PostProcessing" enabled!
bloom rgb # = Sitcom flashback blur effect
bloom [r g b #] (rgb is color) (# is the bloom amount) [0.0 - 1.0]:
This cheat adds a blur effect, like a sitcom flashback moment.

vignette # # # = Blurry bits at the edge of the screen.
vignette [centerX centerY X] (X is the vignetteing factor) [0.0 - 1.0]: Adds a blur
effect from the specified center. Using "vignette 0.5 0.5 0.5" should put some
blurry bits at the edge of the screen. Vignette 0.5 0.5 1.0 is maximum edge
blurryness. Must have also entered boolProp enablePostProcessing true for
this cheat to work.
filmGrain # = Grainy screen (# = 0.0 to 1.0)
This cheat makes the screen grainy. Must have also entered boolProp
enablePostProcessing true for this cheat to work.

NOTE: If anything above did not work for you, the cheat HAS NOT WORKED. TRY AGAIN.
10. Enjoy your top rank job! SAVE.

Move your family to another neighborhood
Is you neighborhood getting too filled with the family you started with? Well you can move to another neighborhood. Go to the neighborhood view, and put the house that you want to move (With the family in it) into the houses bin then go to the neighborhood you want to put it in where you ever you want it. I havn't tested this but I imagine this will break up the family unfortunatly so this should only be used in despirate situations.
