The Sims 4 Media Production skill cheat is `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 5`. Select the Sim, open the cheat console with `Ctrl`+`Shift`+`C` (all four shoulder buttons on PlayStation and Xbox), type `testingcheats true`, then enter the line. Media Production goes up to level 5. It needs Get Famous.

## Media Production cheat for every level

Change the last number to pick the level. Media Production has 5 levels.

| Level | Cheat |
| --- | --- |
| 1 | `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 1` |
| 2 | `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 2` |
| 3 | `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 3` |
| 4 | `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 4` |
| 5 (max) | `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 5` |

Note the code: most skills start with `major_`, but Media Production uses `minor_media`. Typing `major_mediaproduction` will not work.

## How to max Media Production step by step

- Load your save, go to Live mode and click the Sim you want to change.
- Open the console: `Ctrl`+`Shift`+`C` on PC and Mac, `L1`+`L2`+`R1`+`R2` on PlayStation, `LB`+`LT`+`RB`+`RT` on Xbox.
- Type `testingcheats true` and press Enter.
- Type `stats.set_skill_level minor_media 5` and press Enter.
- The Media Production bar jumps to level 5. Close the console with `Esc`.

It needs **Get Famous** installed. Without the pack the cheat does nothing.

## Media Production cheat not working?

- **Nothing happens:** type `testingcheats true` first. Type it again if you loaded a save or traveled.
- **Wrong Sim leveled up:** the cheat changes the selected Sim. Click the right portrait and repeat.
- **Spelling:** the skill code is `minor_media`, with no spaces. Codes are not case sensitive.
- **Pack missing:** Get Famous must be installed and enabled.
- **Console won't open:** another app may be using the shortcut. See the fixes on the [main skill cheats page](/).
