Need console commands to clear all bounties
I'm playing a charcter who's mission is to kill ever single NPC in the game, and I've aqcuired a large amount of bounties from a number of factions. I want a command that clear all bounties if there is one. I've searched online, but I haven't found any that work for me there.

I have tried so far-
Setcrimegold 0 0
paycrimegold 0 0
(There may have been others but I'm not certain.)

Help is greatly appreciated.

I'd imagine it'd need to be cleared by hold, as that's how it's managed. You need to use the ID of the hold you want to clear.
paycrimegold <jail> <items> <faction ID>

<jail> 0 or 1: 0 does nothing, 1 sends you to the faction jail as though you'd just paid a guard.
<items> 0 or 1: determines whether your stolen items are confiscated or not.
<faction ID>: As below.

00028170 Crime Faction Falkreath
000267E3 Crime Faction Eastmarch (Windhelm)
00029DB0 Crime Faction Haafingar (Solitude)
0002816D Crime Faction Hjaalmarch (Morthal)
0002816e Crime Faction The Pale (Dawnstar)
0002816C Crime Faction The Reach (Markarth)
0002816B Crime Faction The Rift (Riften)
000267EA Crime Faction Whiterun
0002816F Crime Faction Winterhold
xx018279 Crime Faction Raven Rock (Solstheim)

So for example:
paycrimegold 0 0 28170
Would pay off Falkreath without going to jail or losing stolen items.

I haven't tried it in-game but that's what the wiki's say. :)

Thanks mate. Do you know if there's any way to clear my bounty with the tribal orcs?

I just tried this and there's no command error message, which means it's a legit command, but it does nothing. I tried to use it for Markarth. I'll keep looking.

Edit: You have to type player.paycrimegold 0 0 <faction ID> but this will also remove all the gold you're carrying. Store your gold somewhere before using it. I found this on another Steam community page.

What if you are a stormcloak and you accidently hit another stormcloak until dead. And the stormcloaks keep coming after you and you keep killing them off, and your bounty is now over 10000 gold. What faction code do you use?

That's not a bounty, exactly, it's just that if you have committed an act of violence against one of them they become hostile, no bounty to pay off to reset it.

How do you remove Tribal Orcs Bounty? There is no FACTION code.

You can try the quest for Malacaths Hammer or The Forgemasters Fingers

This thread was quite old before the recent post, so we're locking it to prevent confusion.
