Introduction
Here's some important things to note before we begin:
  • This list is not only for Fallout NV, it will work with most Bethesda games, as they use the same engine. (item id's will be different though, obviously)

  • This list is NOT complete. I will add commands as I discover them.

  • If you have a specific kind of command you want to execute, look under the most similar category and see if a command describing what you want to do exists.

  • If I do not have a command listed for the task you want to complete, please find the command and tell me in the comments the command and what it is used for.

  • Some commands do not work in vanilla New Vegas, but there is a plugin called the JIP LN NVSE[www.nexusmods.com] that will add this functionality. Currently, this only affects the search command.


And with that, we can begin!
Movement
setgs fmoverunmult [num] This gamesetting variable is for character run speed. Default: 5,
but I only recommend going up to a max of 12. Note that you may need to refresh your speed by dropping an item that has weight, or toggling to walk then run again.

tcl This command toggles the players collisions, effectively enabling noclip mode
Player / Map
tmm 1 - Unlocks all map markers, so you can fast travel wherever you want to go.

showracemenu - Allows you to change your sex, race, face, and hair at any time.

Player.additem [string] [number] - Allows you to give yourself items using item IDs. Some item ID's are listed above the credits of the guide. First argument is the item ID, second argument is the amount of items you wish to add.

search "[string]" ALCH - Returns the item ID of the item name you enter. Useful if you know an item that you want, but don't know its item ID.

Advlevel - Advances your level by 1.

player.setscale [num] - Modifies your characters size. Recommended to only go between 1 and 10.

player.modav carryweight [num] - Modifies your max amount of weight you can hold before becoming encumbered.

player.addperk [num] and player.removeperk [num] allow you to add and revoke perks to your player. The numerical input determines the perk you wish to add/remove.

RewardKarma [num] - Adds karma to your character. Can also be used to remove karma, by using a negative number.

player.modav health [num] - Sets your health. Be careful, this can kill you.
Quests
caqs - The most useful command in this guide, which completes all quest stages, even for quests that haven't been given yet, effectively ending the game. :)

movetoqt - Teleports the player to the next quest target for the selected quest.
Cinematics
tm - Toggles the HUD, allowing you to take screenshots of the scenery without the crosshair or health bar.

tfc - Toggles the Free Camera, allowing you to move around similarly to tcl but while keeping your character in the same location.

sucsm [num] - Changes the speed for tfc. 1 is slow movement, 10 is fast movement.

fov [num] - Changes the field of view for the camera, can be used to create panoramic screenshots. Default: 75

tlb - This command toggles Light Brite mode, keeping everything well lit. Also removes your arm when viewing the pip-boy, so I wouldn't recommend if you're playing legit.

tfow - This command toggles Fog of War, allowing you to see further in every direction.
Combat
tgm - Toggles GodMode, making you invincible.

setgs fVATSHitChanceMult [num] - Changes the VATS hit chance multiplier. Set to 100 for VATS to have perfect accuracy, or 0 to never hit anything.

player.setweaponhealthperc [num] - Changes the durability of the currently equipped weapon. Set to 100 to repair your weapon, or 0 to break it.
Miscellaneous
Item IDs
Item IDs come in the form of 8-digit hexadecimal codes, equivalent to 32 binary bits or 4,294,967,296 possible IDs.

Bobby Pin: A
Caps: F
Stimpak: 15169
Super Stimpak: CCEF2
Sunset Sarsaparilla Star Caps: 103B1C
Mini Nuke: 20799
Debug MegaPistol: 1465A6 (very powerful debug pistol)
Anti Materiel Rifle: 12B38D
Remnants Power Armor: 133167

Edit:
Recently, I found out that leading zeros are ignored on interpretation. This means that '0000000A' becomes 'A', '0000000F' becomes 'F', and so on.
