Overview
A simple guide detailing how to use cheat codes, the cheat codes themselves and their effects within the game.
How to enable cheats!
Cheats can be enabled by simply loading into the game and typing the codes in the console which is accessed by pressing the tilde key located in the top left of the keyboard under the ESC key or alternatively the F1 key.
Once in the console enter the code “cht_bEnableCheats=1” to begin cheating or alternatively “cht_bEnableCheats=3” to access developer cheats.
Most console cheats will have a value of 0 which is an indication of the cheat being disabled. You need to change the value from 0 to 1 in order to activate a cheat. If the cheat requires this it is marked with a “#”
Any code marked with a “*” requires a custom amount to be added for example replacing the “*” with 100 in the health cheat will give you an extra 100 health etc.
The console cheat codes that end with brackets () require you to put in the amount of ammo or the name of a weapon that you want to get.
USING ANY CHEAT WILL INVALIDATE YOUR SCORE FOR THE LEVELS AND ACHIEVEMENTS WILL NOT BE AWARDED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE GAME.
Cheat Menu!
Once cht_bEnableCheats=1 has been entered in the console you can access the cheat menu from the pause screen by pressing F3 instead of having to type each cheat in the console, some cheats are not available on the menu for example godmode which is only accessible via the Developer Menu or Console. The cheats in the menu are:
Developer Menu!
Accessing the menu is exactly the same as the previous menu, open the console via the tilde key located under the ESC key or alternitively the F1 Key and enter “cht_bEnableCheats = 3”. Once entered pausing the game and pressing F3 will open the menu. This menu will give access to all avaliable cheats presented in the table below.
