Sim City 4 trainers - are there any that work?

I've downloaded a couple of trainers for Sim City 4, but cannot get any to work. I've downloaded one from deviance, and one from imsdox, but neither work. They are in the format of running them in the background, and while in the game pressing 1, 2, or 3 to activate a certain cheat.

I'm using the in-game cheat for money, but it only gives you $1,000 at a time and takes forever.

And for those of you who will no doubt call me a cheater, Sim City is MUCH funner if you don't have to worry about money, so there. 😛

I think its one of those words that wasn't supposed to be a word... but since so many people used it improperly they just put it in there anyway heh
 
To get back to your original point, the deviance one runs in the background, (you have to run it from /program files/maxis/simcity 4/apps/trainer.exe, and start the game using the trainer) once your game is started, alt-tab to the trainer, hit "1", then alt-tab back to the game. All you have to do then is buy something or use the "WeaknessPays" cheat. Keep and eye on the cash, cause it can get screwy on you. Sometimes it falls as quick as it rises. 🙂

But when I press 1, either in game or out, it completely closes the game out. Is this because I have the updated patch installed??
 
Just ctrl-x and type in your weaknesspays cheat.

Instead of hitting <enter>, do a shift+enter. That'll keep the box there. Then hit up arrow, and enter again...


I just hold shift down and rapidly alternate between enter and up arrow... 🙂

It's just a program that runs in the background that helps you cheat at the game. It kinda reminds me of a gameshark, but without the codes. You change whatever options within the program, then run the game, and viola. A trainer is at it's simplest a cheating device.

What I had been doing was using CTRL+X to bring up the box, typing the WeaknessPays cheat, then copying it with CTRL+C. Then I just hold down CTRL, which effectively keeps the box up as well, and alternate between CTRL+V (to paste) and enter. It just takes too long. I want the 8 billion catrillion dollars the trainer is supposed to give you so I don't have to worry about it at all.
 
Funner is not a word

Why do people use trainers and cheats? I used to use them for some games, but it totally ruined it for me. In SimCity 4, using a trainer or cheat would totally ruin the game. The only fun in the game is trying to balance everything and make enough to not go broke. This is tough, but very possible. One of my cities has 6 million dollars. This is done w/o leaving it running overnight or anything. I just made a good city (good group of cities that worked together).
 
Is the reasoning behind the "alt-tab to the trainer, hit 1, then alt-tab back to the game" do anything different then just running the trainer.exe from the games apps? My cheater is working without using the alt-tab. When I buy something or just lay down a road my money goes up. Yet, in the installation directions for this cheater it does say "hit 1".

When playing in a nontrainer mode, regular game, my ctrl-x brings up the box as it should. After I type in the cheats and hit enter the box just stays there. I cannot enter the cheat.

Do you think this would be possible: Play the first game with trainer.exe cheat then once the money is way up there, I then save the game. Then I restart the regular game (nontrainer) and use the other cheats ie. rewards (I have none)

My problem as mentioned above, I can type in the cheat but entering doesn't work.

Any suggestions?
 
I'm looking for sim city 4 on Kazaa and been having troubles finding a correctly labeled one. How big is the file if any of you got it this way
