First Things First.

before you can start you have to enable cheats in the game. The easist way to do this in adding the launch option in steam.

  • First go to your Steam Library
  • Right click on RTCW and select Properties
  • Click on "Set Launch Options..." under the General tab
  • Add "+set sv_cheats 1" (without quotes) in the box
  • Click 'Ok'


Once in the game you will need to open the console, to do this press the '~' key. This is where you'll input all the cheat codes in both single and multiplayer.

UPDATED: In some cases the game will tell you that 'cheat codes are not enabled on this server' when starting a single player game. If this happens simply open the console and type "/spdevmap escape1" to (re)load the first map. Now you should have no problems using the various codes from this point on.
