(PSA) You Can't Use Developer Console For the Last Death Wish

[Combat]

I decided to take a look at the last mission, Seal the Deal, and discovered that when attempting to use enable cheats, the game hurts you for one health and tells you "Now where's the fun in that."

While I'm glad Gears for Breakfast thought of everything, it was a little jarring to see. Now I'm having flashbacks to the Serious Room and the Serious Ending.

I'm also interested to see if anyone has found a workaround since we all know once a community finds a roadblock, they generally try to push it over.

(And please, keep it civil. I know at least one person will be offended that I'd dare check the developer console.)

snatcher: hat kid, this is me being serious. infact, this is my serious contract. it's what you sign when i'm serious.

Once upon a time you could edit HatinTimeGame.ini and change "PlaytestMode=false" to "PlaytestMode=true". Unfortunately, GFB were offended that people found it out and shared publicly, so now the game completely ignores this setting.

I recommend installing "That girl's badge" (or any other mod which disables or ignores damage inflicted on player).

That's a pretty good idea for anyone struggling with it for sure.

If the end justifies the means, and you really want to cheat, you can try to use the cheat engine[www.cheatengine.org]. Make sure to read the FAQ and learn how to use it though.

You're welcome! But it's nothing scary, really. Its purpose is to mod difficulty for people, and make what we call "trainers" by advanced users. Want to make a game harder ? Cap your life bar at one HP. Want to have an easy time against zombies waves ? Freeze your ammo count, and etc.

If the life variable is not protected, big emphasis on that, you just analyse the memory to find where its value is stored on your RAM. The way to find something work like this :

- You want to make you invincible, so you search for your health value, which can be a number (4) or a "floatting number" (4.0f or 1.0f, for HP percentage) by default ;
- You take a hit on purpose. You know that your health decreased so you tell the cheat engine to search in your computer memory for values that have decreased ;
- You redo the step 2 to isolate the wanted value ;
- You check the value you got. Try to edit it and check the effect in game. If it's the one, you can do anything with it and freeze it to its maximum.

There is good tutorials on how to use it, so don't be scared of it. It's really a powerful tool and "educative" tool, you can learn a lot on how softwares works with that.
