'''Hacking''' is an activity in ''[[The Sims 2: University]]''
==The Sims 2==
"Grade Hacking" is an action available on [[college]] computers in ''The Sims 2: University'' after a Sim joins a [[secret society]]. While hacking, a Sim's [[class performance]] will slowly rise, however there is also a risk of getting caught, and that risk generally increases the longer the Sim hacks. Having higher [[

Sims with the [[
▲Sims with the [[Computer Whiz]] trait or in the [[Investigator]] profession can hack in ''The Sims 3''. Hacking is only possible between 9 pm and 7 am. Depending on the number of times a Sim has hacked before, a set amount of money is put into the household funds every 15–60 minutes (depending on quality/price of computer used). The amount of money the Sim gets depends on how accomplished a hacker he/she is. A high level hacker can earn 4000 simoleons a night and more. Hacking is a hidden skill, so the only way the skill gaining is shown is by the amount of money coming in, there is nothing about it in the skill journal. There is a chance of the police sending a virus to the Sim's computer and breaking it. If this happens and the Sim repairs the computer and keeps hacking, another virus is likely to be sent.

Sims that have reached
▲Sims that reached Level 2 in the Programming Skill unlock the ability to Hack on the computer, to earn some [[Simoleon|money]] on the side. At first, they only have Llamacorn Listserv as a target, but as they raise their Programming, more various targets to hack appear. There is a cooldown of 24 hours after you hack a server/account, to prevent abuse. The Supercomputer is an exception, and it takes 7 days to attempt to hack it once more. If Supercomputer hacking fails, the computer the hack was attempted from will be broken. Hacking has a higher chance to succeed when the Sim in question is [[Focused]]. The time at which the hacking is initiated seems to not change the outcome of the process. At Level 8 of Programming, Sims learn to hack faster, speeding up the process passively. A computer upgraded with ECC RAM and IP Spoofers will perform better at Hacking.
