Dismemberment cheat

[Gabocore]

So I just bought this game (jedi outcast) recently and I'm having a lot of fun with it but I read that there were some cheats for singleplayer you could use. After watching some videos I discovered the dismemberment cheat that looks awesome. Now, every cheat works except for dismemberment. I have tried everything, devmapall, helpusobi 1, g_dismemberment 5, g_dismemberment 9, g_dismemberment 9000 nothing works. If I don't use helpusobi 1 and try to introduce the dismemberment cheat it will say that it's read only, but if I use helpusobi 1 or devmapall no message appears when using dismemberment but nothing happens, it still doesn't work.

Again, all the other cheats work correctly but this one doesn't, I even tried going to the jedi outcast folder and changing g_dismemberment directly from the file and still nothing happened. I heard the german version had it censored but I'm not sure if it's true and even if it were I'm from Spain so unless they censored it in all European version (which would be ridiculous) it should work. Can somebody explain me why it's not working? Is there any mod I could use? Because I couldn't find any mods for this game that added dismemberment.

The game just looks and plays much better with that cheat and I really would like to use it.

after you enable cheats with the "helpusobi 1" command, type in "g_saberRealisticCombat 9" and you will be able to dismember enemies with your lightsaber.

Just tried that and it doesn't work. All it does is that I can kill without actually swinging my lightsaber, but even then it still doesn't dismember body parts

Go to "setup" and then to "more video" and make sure your model dismemberment is on

I just checked and there is no such option as model dismemberment on more video options

We must have different versions or something. I don't know what else you could do

I know it's so weird, but the option is just not there. Idk if I should try to downgrade or something because I can't find any mods and it's so much fun being able to dismember with the lightsaber that the game feels kinda lacking without it. I also can't find discussions with people having this problem too

Down grading won't do anything. There is the model dismemberment option in the "Options" of setup in main menu but it isn't as good as the commands. try cg_dismember 3000 etc cg_dismemberment, g_dismember and g_dismemberment

If it does not work make sure you go into your gamedata folder and then base and find the jk2config.cfg and edit the settings from there make sure you save it as .cfg and right click it select properties and make sure read only is not on. If you are on windows 8.1 or 8 you need to be an admin to do this in the config file.

I tried changing the jk2config.cfg. The file itself is not read only so I could edit it if that's what you mean. I changed the dismemberment settings from there and then loaded my game, nothing changed and the dismemberment cheat still won't work. Weird thing is that when I go back to the file after playing the game all the settings have been reset to what they were before I change them. So it seems that when I start playing all the changes I made to the file reset to original settings.

The dismemberment option is in the file but it doesn't matter if I change it and save the changes because after starting the game they reset back

Not sure what are you referencing with "after doing your commands to lock and save it"

I used the command you said and the console accepts it but nothing works. I changed the dismemberment probabilities to 9000 and the saberrealisticcombat to 9 on the autoexec file and then used the writeconfig command but still nothing changed. If you know how to do this could you explain it step by step?

Try this


edit the autoexec.cfg inside the base directory of the game, if it's not there create a txt file warning to those who have extensions hidden you need to rename the txt file using right click on the file properties

Edit name in box from "new textdoc etc" of that tab to autoexec.cfg

Clean it out nothing inside paste this

seta g_dismemberment "1"
seta g_dismemberProbabilities "1"
bind k "devmapall|g_saberrealisticcombat 999|vid_restart"


when in game press the K button should enable it


this is working in my autoexec.cfg

seta helpUsObi "1"
seta ui_iscensored "0"
seta g_saberRealisticCombat "1"
seta g_dismemberProbabilities "1"
seta r_simpleMipMaps "1"
seta r_customaspect "-1"
seta r_customheight "1080"
seta r_customwidth "1920"
seta r_fullscreen "1"
seta r_mode "-1"

So I did what you said and it works for saberrealisitccombat, just like if I used the actual cheat, I can kill by just getting the lightsaber close to somebody, the problem is that dismemberment doesn't happen. They just die without being able to cut any part of their body. It's like if the game accepted all cheats and even realisticcombat but not dismemberment. Should I try to use your config of the autoexec? I mean there has to be a solution to this

EDIT: Finally!! I tried copying your autoexec and then when using helpusobi 1 and writing g_dismemberment it said I could edit it up to 3 (when before it just said "dismemberment is read only") so I changed it to g_dismemberment 3 and it works perfectly, I can even disable it when I want.

Thanks guys for the help, I have no idea why it wasn't working and why it is now, I guess it's just your autoexec config somehow changed something or whatever. Now I'm going to enjoy this game

The Autoexec.cfg works on all the most of the ID tech engines even works on HL as it was ID tech 2 modded and Source also is accepting of this treatment being a Heavly modified version of ID2

Hola Gabocore, tengo entendido que eres de España, yo soy de México, así que creo que podemos hablar en español, necesito tu ayuda, yo acabo de comprar el JK2 por steam y tengo este mismo problema de no poder activar los desmembramientos con el sable laser y me sale el mismo mensaje al momento de escribir el comando "g_dismemberment", me sale un mensaje que dice "it's read only", ya trate de hacer lo que dices arriba como dices que te funciono pero a mi no me funciona, pero mi confusión es desde ¿en que ruta va el archivo autoexec.cfg? porque por de fault mi juego no tiene ese archivo, ¿hay que crearlo?, y si es asi ¿en donde?, espero me puedas ayudar explicándome paso a paso y gracias.

[a!m]

The only command needed after cheats are enabled is "g_saberRealisticCombat"
The command has 4 settings (0-3) and each setting changes how easy it is to dismember/kill.
For example if i want lite dismemberment i would use "g_saberRealisticCombat 1" no quotes
