Default Sims 3 Cheat/Hack?
I recall in Sims 2 weren't we able to create a file with a list of cheats we wanted enabled in the game and it would load them at startup of the game for you. Does this work in Sims 3 and if so what was the process of it again? Thanks ;-)

It is a userstartup.cheat file and it is in the wiki. I'm not sure if it works in sims 3. There are a lot of things we're still figuring out.

I'm worried that my latest Salvation Army donation will result in homeless people looking like sluts from the 90s.

I've tried doing the "aging off" cheat but it doesn't work in the sims 3. Is it not there or is it called something else?

Aging control is now built into the game. On the Options/Gameplay panel, you can move a slider to adjust the speed of aging and there's a toggle to turn aging off completely.

I don't know if this is global or on a per-household basis, since I've only played with one household so far. Since the slider and aging toggle are grayed out when accessed from the load saved game screen, however, I'm guessing it's set per household, since setting it before loading a saved game would probably mean it is a global setting.

I've read at sims.wikia.com that aging control affects the entire neighbourhood. It is stated in the articel about sims3:
"Aging and Story progression are different settings. You can have aging on while story progression is off, both of them turned off, or both of them turned on. Both of these options affect the entire neighborhood and not individual houses."
