Ingame Cheats

[Aaronceus]

Anyone know what the status for cheating in this game is like yet? Whether it be console commands or a third party like cheat engine? It's fun to enjoy the game normally but I also want a save file to just go completely nuts on, and it'll help for repeat playthroughs like trying to stay uncorrupted etc

lol I only know for golds and exp. press shift+o and type avatar.gold=x or avatar.exp=x (the x is the amount you want)

[JayWalsham]

Where do you type it? always opens the accessibility options for me?

You have to open the 00console.rpy file in Seeds of Chaos\renpy\common and change config.console = False to config.console = True

the file didn't show you have use like this config.console = false and so you put true instead of it, but the game requires you to put down like this config.console = 'true'

otherwise your game crashes

How are we supposed to edit it the console file. I have it open, but don't see what to change as described.

Type

avatar.gold 99999999

avatar.xp 99999999

then talk to your wife to pay the castle fee

then talk to the library and the dwarf to upgrade

Can change the values from on one of the files an set it so you get more points when leveling. Honestly I can't see anything different happening other than succeeding more often. i found the file randomly while going from file to file just to see what i can figure out. I suck at coding and whatever file i changed stayed even after the last update.

How do you guys open the rpy file?

[SuckItwetlord]

The xp one doesn't work

[SuckItwetlord]

Type exp instead of xp for the cheat to work.

[Kenius Arcane]

hey there guys
so i did exactly as you all said. went to game files, renpy, common, 00console.rpy, found config.console and edited it to true (try it in four variant of True, true. 'True' & 'true').
in game, command console does open for all four of them but when i type the cheats that you guys mentioned (avatar.gold 100), game gives me this :
File "<string>", line 1: expected statement
what is this? why cheats doesn't work?

look, the best way to cheat all Ren'py games is to use a save game editor. There are a few of them on-line.

I caution against using them until you are VERY familiar with the game. They are best used NOT to help you get past obstacles but to make the game easier to reach certain 'stages' of completion from a new game start perspective so that you can follow other paths you want to discover more quickly from the start.

If you use these cheats without knowing their effect, you could end up missing many events and situations because you've changed the variables that control them. I've intentionally messed around with such variables just to see what damage it does, and it takes the game from being interesting and playable to being boring and regularly... broken.

The game can't be 'finished' in it's current state and so cheating to get to the end actually robs you of the experience to get there. Yes, there are too many 'generic events' that pop up and clobber your advancement of the story when specific events are available. We have some requests into the devs to change this. If there is a specific event available, the player should never be given a generic event, etc.

Other than those, there is only your experience. If you are super experienced with the game and want to move quickly past some parts, use an online save editor for Ren'py, pick an early save and give yourself whatever gold, stats, etc. you want.
