Game locks up cycling through cheats menu
I went through and unlocked all the cheats. Decided to cycle through to make sure I unlocked all 20. When I get to Nausea or go the other way and get to Great Balls of Fire, if I try to select the next cheat, game just locks up.

Tried to see if anyone else experienced the same issue and if there was a fix. Haven't found anything. Anyone have the same issue?

It sounds like you haven't unlocked the fourth marine bonus mission. Which is to say you haven't beaten the marine campaign on Realistic difficulty cheat-less yet.

Unlocking FreeFall Cheat Mode before Unlocking Marine Bonus Mission 4 (Gateway)
  • Problem: The FreeFall cheat mode is obtained by beating the first marine bonus mission, Temple, with taking less than 100% damage. If that condition is met, the FreeFall cheat mode will be unlocked. However, due to an unknown reason, it is only available to play on one marine map: Gateway (bonus). This map is only unlocked if you beat the entinre marine campaign on Realistic difficulty. The following game-freeze will happen if you have not beaten the entire marine campaign on Realistic difficulty. If you have unlocked other cheat modes and scroll through them until a marine-only one is selected (for instance, Grenade) and then try to select FreeFall, the game will completely freeze and you will have to ctrl-alt-del out of the game.

  • Cause: The reason for this glitch is that the menu is trying to select a map that isn't unlocked, but because you scrolled over a marine-specific cheat mode (e.g., Grenade), the category is for marine missions. There is thus no marine mission to select for FreeFall. The game is trying to select the impossible, and therefore locks up. It will not let you change cheat modes or species.

  • Solution: If you find the game frozen because of this, the only way out is to ctrl-alt-del and manually disable the process. To prevent this glitch from ever happening, beat the marine campaign on Realistic difficulty (or just don't unlock the FreeFall cheat mode).
