After Shift-clicking on a Sim and selecting Spawn from the menu, players will find a whole new confusing spot. Which options work and which ones don't? What do they do?

First, a cautionary note: the Spawn option is located in the same spot as the Force Error option in the second menu. Be careful while clicking through the menus that Force Error isn’t accidentally selected.

Spawn is probably the most useful tool to cheaters using boolprop. If players are Shift-clicking to kill Jimmy the college Sim, Spawn is a better choice than Kill. True, the choices under Spawn are so broad that players need breadcrumbs to find their way out again, but under Kill players can only murder Jimmy with flies. Wouldn’t it be funnier if he was hit by a satellite?

What to expect while using the Spawn menu

The options under the Spawn menu generate objects. Once these objects appear the player can place them in a Sim’s inventory or leave them around the lot. These objects continue to exist even if the boolprop cheat is turned off.

There are three submenus under Spawn, but not all of the objects will generate. The failures are below:

  • NPC Kir
  • Drop Wants Test Object
  • Learned Behaviors Object
  • Lifetime Wants Test Object
  • Ray's Test Object
  • Memory manager
  • JJ Test object
  • Break Inducer

Most of the other objects under Spawn will generate. A few examples:

Rodney’s Death Creator: a personal favorite. The object is a tombstone that allows players to kill Sims in nine or more ways: electrocution, drowning, fire, fright, satellite, flies, starvation, disease, and old age. In newer editions like Free Time death can also occur by hail and lightning. Ghosts of dead Sims return in a wide variety of colors from pink to transparent.

Tombstone of L and D: this cheat object offers a bizarre range of choices. Perhaps the most notable is the Get Pregnant with option which allows any two Sims, regardless of gender, to have a genetically correct baby. A handy tool for same-sex Sims.

Semester Tester: indispensible for college Sims. The best selection is the Graduate command. The cheat will instantly bring a Sim within an hour of his/her final exam. The Sim graduates with an automatic A and with their skill points completely maxed.

Servo: a recent edition to the Sims 2 universe. This is a robot normally acquired only through enormous effort and badge building. The servo robot plays as a Sim. It can even fall in love.

Tom’s Clothing Tester: allows players to dress as an NPC (non-playable character). For example, Jimmy can be dressed as Death when he dies.

MakeMeSick: this object does exactly what it is named for, though it can also be used to render a Sim immune from all disease too.

Badge Juicer: this does exactly what it sounds like. Tired of the ridiculously hard work to get a talent badge? The Badge Juicer turns that all into nothing more than a memory.

Chance Card Tester: setting this to on forces the game to prompt players with a “chance card.” The annoying trick questions that come up while a Sim is at work.

Additional Spawn Options

There are other new options under Spawn that come in handy: Genie Lamp, Voodoo Doll, and Wishing Well. In new expansion packs like Free Time, which was used in researching this article, Genie Lamps occur naturally, just as Servos do, but the Spawn cheat removes the element of chance from the game.

Now players can enable the boolprop cheats, Shift-click, and Spawn Rodney’s Death Creator to put Jimmy the college Sim out of his misery.
