Ok this problem has cropped up several times, but no-one actually seems to be able to help. i'll make this as simple as possible. I do not want to cheat at kotor 2, but, i would like to see some of the rare items like malaks robes etc, in order to do this one must bring up the console and type in the give item command, but i am unable to get the console to appear. I dont want to activate cheat mode cos i am not a cheating person. My game is fully updated. H E L P !!
