Developer Console

[DesignYourMind]

How can I activate it? I changed "Tilde=" in the user.ini file to "Tilde=| Type" and it resets every time I run the game. I just want to cheat through single player. It's an old game, there is no reason that I should not be allowed to cheat. Please. Infinite ammo is amazing and we all know that. What have they done and how can I undo whatever they did to ruin the dev console?


EDIT: I got this game on pc spesfically so that I could use God Mode and Infinite Ammo.

You can still use cheats in singleplayer mode only after you have finished the game.Just putt in easy mode and you will be there none or less than 2 hours playing.Maybe lesser.

Don't they only work in whatever mode you complete it in though? I'm looking for some good 'ol overpowered as ♥♥♥♥ duke in the hardest difficulty

IIRC, gearbox patched the console out.

Seriously? What in ♥♥♥♥'s ♥♥♥♥ would make them do that? Are they seriously that anti-fun/playerbase?

Yes.

Edit: Gearbox claims that it was disabled to prevent cheating in multiplayer. Lol

They also made 3D Realms look extremely bad by not giving us something that 3D Realms already promised DNF will give, DukEd. Heavily modified Unreal Editor, specifically made for development of Duke Nukem Forever.

I still think one day i will be launching DukEd.exe..

I hope so, but i think it will only happen in better hands.

You guys are aware that the decision to not release the DukEd was a decision reached by 3DRealms, Triptych and Gearbox. Right?

When the game was nearing release in 2011, they said the editor used to build the game... was a mess. Stating that it was a miracle at all that they even managed to finish the game itself.
The editer had become such a cobbled together mess, that it was hurting development of the game more then it was helping it.

A lot of their grand plans and goals they set for the editor back when they planned to release it publically, never worked... or had to be removed or reworked to make the program useable.

George even commented that he was sad that the editor wasn't available for fans. But, that it was the best move... as releasing such a broken program wouldn't help anyone.

How does a developer not restrict the console to single player only? That the real question.

Still no real explanation for removing the console in singleplayer.

[Damien Azreal]

Never said I was commenting on the console.... mostly, because I wasn't.

WELL THAT ANSWER THAT THEN all I want noclip to look around the maps
suspect that much of this game is held to gether with codeing equivent of string and sticky tape and they thought folk trying to mod/ tc would brin it down like a house of cards.

Word of advice.

If by someway you manage to get yourself hold of the original Duke Nukem Forever steam released demo, you will be able to noclip in it. And from what I know, you could also supposebly load levels and stuff, spawn monsters..

Gearbox has now replaced the demo with the *removed dev console Duke version*. So only reasonably hassle free way is, if you can get the old demo files from somewhere. The other not at all easy way is.. if you can re-code Unreal Editor 1 to to basically DukeEd or something. DukeEd which basically is heavily edited version of Unreal Editor for the original UnrealEngine.

They kept out the dev console because of cheating in MP? LMFAO There are cheaters anyway and the console is disabled. Your move, Gearbox...
