Neverwinter Nights -- Console Commands

Because sometimes you just want to beast through.

Console Commands

There are two methods of entering commands. The most common method is to press ~ to bring up the console. Alternatively, you can use the chat window to enter commands. To do this, type the desired command with "##" directly preceeding it. Example: ##DebugMode 1

Note that commands are case sensitive. Many will also ask you to select a target. For those commands which ask for a target, you can click on either the character or, in the case of party members, the character's portrait. And finally, remember that you have to enable debug mode before you can use console commands. The game will acknowledge any properly entered commands but will not actually carry them out if debug mode is not enabled.

Alternative means of inputting commands:

Console Commands can also be inputed, by writing the command in the chat and adding ##. For example ##DebugMode 1 .

Instant Kill, Teleportation and other commands

Ursprünglich geschrieben von Zwerkules:

Once you activated DebugMode you can destroy or kill just about anything by placing the mouse pointer on it and pressing either crtl+z or ctrl+y depending on your keyboard layout.

Ursprünglich geschrieben von Zwerkules:

also should add the dm_jumptopoint x y command. ( get stuck running up ramps sometimes it helps). while in DebugMode move your cursor to where you wan to be and press x on the keyboard( will give you your cordinates.

a full listing can be found at ##http://nwn.wikia.com/wiki/Console_command## remove the ##:rfacepalm:

Numpad plus teleports
Also, be careful with the insta-kill shortcut; if you target a held item, it destroys the item. To kill a creature make sure you're targetting its torso.

Clocking your FPS.

Also if you are trying to get your frame rate you may want to use the "trace fps" command -- eg in the chat bar:
##trace fps

Chooser window and zone teleportation

Ursprünglich geschrieben von Michael:

I don't think I saw this mentioned in your guide (unless my eyes are tired), but while in debug mode, you can hit the period key to bring up the "chooser" window. This lets you teleport to any zone in the game, interact with targets via the interface rather than commands, etc.

I'd also like to add that the chooser window offers additional ways to mess with targets - such as toggling invulnerability, taking direct control of npc's, etc.

Not that I know of. You can give yourself a ridiculous intelligence stat before leveling up and restore it to normal afterwards though.

There a command to mod skill at all?

[Wandering Mania]

Should add a side note that that one. As it can break quests. Like if you use it on a 'Main boss' or whatever.

Maybe someone gonna need this so I left it here:
One Hit Kills
Enable cheats by hitting ~ and typing in DebugMode 1 and hitting Enter.

In any area, hold the cursor at a point where you want to go and hit + on the number pad. To instantly kill a tough enemy, hold the cursor on it and hit the y key. You can even use the instant kill cheat to break most doors, chests, and boxes.

Found it on gamefaqs and was posted by Salarian.

Thanks! Do these affect achievements? I might want to change my characters appearance.

thankyou very much! appreciate it

You'll never be able to play without it again. Which is somewhat unfortunate because installing & updating it can be a bit of a hassle.
