Under the general tab click launch options. Type it in there, then ok that.

Right-click on the game --> Properties --> Set launch options --> then type "-console" without the quotes.

Save the game before using a cheat; if you don't, then sometimes the game will freeze up on you. If you find that your game does freeze after you have used a cheat, then you simply have to type "chareditor" in the console.

This doesn't work for Win 7 64 bit players; there is no "launch options" button or any editable field where the -console argument can be written. Any Win 7 64-bit players out there have the console working? How?

[dunmerbob]

Answering my own question-- this is done in the Steam client, not Windows. Start the Steam client by clicking on the Start button (in Windows), then All Programs -> Steam. Click on the Steam icon in the Steam listing, and the Steam client starts. Once it starts and logs you in, click on the word LIBRARY at the top of the window. You should see Vampire tMB listed; right click on it, and you'll see the 'Set launch options' button, and other options as well.

I don't have problems with game freezes if I use the tilde character (~) to both open and close the console; don't use the "x" on the console's window to close it.

It bothers me as to why you even need cheats in this game

[dunmerbob]

Because it's buggy in places, and sometimes doesn't hand over the goods. I first began looking for the console when I was unable to get a sword I'd won, despite reloading and defeating the character numerous times, and was in a spot where I thought I needed it.

Another reason, not so important in this game, but a major consideration when playing an rpg that can go on for 100+ hours, is that I have a job, wife, and kids. My game time is severely limited, and sometimes the only way to get anywhere in a game within those limits is to forgo the tedium. I "cheat" as little as possible, though- I fight all my battles, learn all the spells, etc. It's just not fun if you suck all the challenge out by cheating-- is this what you mean?

cheating is fun if youve beaten the game so many times you can qute the characters word for word and want to mess around a bit

also you can use the consol to swap disiplins aparently which is I've been trying to get into it. Lets face it we've all sat and thought out the perfect combo for disiplins. only takes a few changes t give you a city gangrel after all or requiem ventrue.. etc.
out of curiosity when I first instaled this I changes the refesh to 60 to "freq - 60" to stop it bugging as much, do I have to put any symbol bettween that and the comand for "console" or do I just use the old spacebar no comas or semi colons etc??

let me know if you did because this is also a query of mine.

Nope you don't need to input a space. just make sure if you want to pull up the console in game you hit the ~ key. Otherwise you're gonna be frustrated for hours.
