Half-Life Alyx - Ultimate Guide to Console Commands & Cheats

The most comprehensive guide available for Half Life Alyx commands and cheats. Not much is out there yet, but we have compiled all we could into this guide. Enjoy!

About

Most of the guides about console commands for Half Life Alyx are often missing several commands. I've decided to make my own guide to fix this issue. I'll be checking up on the comments now and then and updating this guide with new commands as more are uncovered.

If you manage to find more commands that can be of use, please post them in the comments.

(Many websites are stealing Steam guides to make money off of them by showing ads. If you're seeing this from somewhere other than Steam, It's stolen! Not that I care too much. Just want to get the word out and encourage people to support the original writers instead of some bot websites. I also kinda want see if the will add this for fun :3 )

How to Enable the Console

To enable the Developer Console, you must add a line to the game's Launch Options.


In your library, right-click Half Life Alyx to open the properties diologe. Click the [SET LAUNCH OPTIONS...] box and add the following line of code:

-console -vconsole

Click [OK]

Now, once you restart the game, the console will be enabled.

Extra Launch Options

These can be added to your [launch options] after "-console -vconsole".

+hlvr_continuous_normal_speed 120 — Modifies the player speed. (see [player commands] section below).

+hlvr_continuous_combat_speed 120 — Modifies the player speed while in combat.

-fullscreen -w 1920 -h 1080 — Sets the spectator window on the desktop to fullscreen. Replace the width and height with the resolution of your own monitor.

-dev — Enables a dev menu with quick access to common commands. The button to enable the dev menu is to the left of [resume] in the pause menu. (picture below).

Using The Console

To open the console in-game, press the [~] key on your keyboard located just under the escape key. The console will appear on you desktop, so you will have to take off your VR headset to type in commands


Commands can be typed in the the bottom box labeled [Command:]

You can type in any word and the console will show any command that contains that word. For example, typing "Health" will show all commands relating to health.

The first command you often enter is sv_cheats 1

This enables cheat commands like infinite ammo and god mode. However, as with other Half Life games, it may disable achievements until you restart the game. Not all commands need sv_cheats enabled though.

Commands that are confirmed to require sv_cheats are marked with [C].

Command and Asset Dumps

I've created a messy list of almost all of the commands for Half-Life: Alyx.

It is not 100% complete. (I used the Find command to search for them but it's difficult to combine searches together). It does contain over 5500 command though.

Many of the commands come with short descriptions. Do note however, that the majority of them have not been tested. Many wont do anything, and some can crash your game.

Try at your own risk. Also the doc is big and may lag your browser.

Link to dump: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BOKGNqXTWrkcZ1m9B2G73leCu96AfaVioR76hdUGafE/edit?usp=sharing

Eventually I will compile a completed list of commands into a nicer format. it will be a rather massive project to import it into an excel sheet. I estimate there are possibly up to 6500 commands in total.

Full Asset Dump

Below is a link to a document listing all of the assets in Half-Life: Alyx. It contains the names and folder structure of over 45 thousand textures, models, sounds, materials, and more. It's a massive file, but to anyone into map making or modding, it might be a useful tool.

The file is uploaded to Google Docs here[drive.google.com]. The file seems to be too big for Google Docs (you might have better luck than I did), but works decently with Zoho Writer found in the "Open With" dialogue box at the top of the page once signed into Google.

Keep in mind the document is almost 500 pages long and may lag older systems. you can use CTRL+F to search the document and find assets.

[Ninja Eule]

I added the launch options, but when I start the game and press the key under Esc, nothing happens. I have a German keyboard with this key: ^ under Esc. The ~ symbol can be gotten by pressing +, Ctrl, and Alt, but neither of those two options does anything. Any idea of how to get the console to open? By the way, the steam design to get to the launch options has changed a bit. You might want to update your guide.

[gatokl_perkin43]

How to spawn an armored zombie?

[hwykiynt?]

Is there a command to change the player's falling terminal velocity?

[SomePerson]

is this outdated? it doesnt show what i'm seeing in the photo for how to enable the console... do i have to run it or what?

[TuckerTaco]

how to I load a map with mods?

[PzKpfw A7V gaming]

same thing happens with Xen Grenades

[PzKpfw A7V gaming]

when i do "give item_hlvr_grenade_frag" it just spawns a error. dont know why.

[Skummeh]

@matrushko Well then choose a key that you do have access to easily that you don't need. You are not using the keyboard while playing the game, so binding it to something you won't also need in a console command should work like * on the numpad. Deleted my previous comment suggesting you use a letter as you'd need that for commands themselves, but I don't think you'll ever need *

[matrushko]

@Skummeh ok thanks, though your video sounds very low and the fonts are too small for me, I will take my glasses other day. The fact is that I don't want infinite power, ammo, lives, etc,i just wanted to play the game and mods with full resolution, that's achieved already. i will investigate other commands. And gonna try now console with default key, if it doesn't work, I will try to change to F2 as you says in your video. Problem: my keyboard doesn't have a direct F2 key, must press Fn first xddd.

[Skummeh]

@matrushko My homie λrokh has you covered: https://youtu.be/3upp6hV_GIQ?si=Tbx4Dt3qWyIzfeue
