Getting Cheat Codes to Work

[scotte1218]

Is there anyone ouut there who can please tell me how to enable the cheats codes?? I have done the following and they still wont work:

Gone into the ini. file and typed in EnableCheats=1 directly under the Game Options name.

Saved the file in another location as I have Windows 7 and could not make direct changes to the notepad. Pasted and overwrote the original ini. file. EnableCheats=1 is now part of the ini. file.

 

While in game I have pressed the `~ key by itself. No dice. Pressed the `~ key in along with every combination of the spacebar and enter buttons imaginable. No dice.

 

Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong here??? Thanks so much.

I'm not sure why anybody would want to use cheat codes, the game is rather easy as is

 

Anyway, I'm not sure that it actually shows you a "console" when hitting the '~' key. Did you try just typing in just '~' and then one of the codes (eg 'bright') followed by enter?

Yes I have tried that. After hitting the ~ key, whenever I hit a hot button, the applicable screen comes up. For example, after hitting the ~ key and I hit the "j" key, the journal come up. Uggghhhhh, I am not sure why this is not working. I have read every forum I can find and tried just about everything such as entering EnableCheatOptions=1 instead of the EnableCheats=1......still nothing.

If you really want to know, go into swkotor2.ini and under game options (I think, been a while since I used cheats) put in EnableCheats=1, not EnableCheatOptions=1. Then when you're in game, if you want an item in your inventory you have to type "giveitem" then put in the item code for example "giveitem a_light_01" then press enter and you should get that item.

I figured out that the EnableCgeats=1 has to be under the "compatability" files....not the file under the programs86. i am all set now guys. Thanks for the help.

It would be a lot easier to use a save game editor.
