in game console updated* question

using a UK layout keyboard Ive tried all the likely combination to find the key to access the console - none of these ideas work
                 ~       shift & #
      *           `       key above Tab next to 1
                 ¬       same key with shift
     **          ¦      same key with alt gr



can I use the console in Single player mode?

any useful 'cheats' I can try in single player mode - invunerable would be good to explore maps and test tactics

thanks guys

one more thing - whats a good way to get an ingame screenshot pls?

For cheats and macros wait for Timmos answer, not only for single mod... wink

Re: in game console updated* question

To open game console is the key above "Tab", left to "1" and under "Esc" key.

There are some cheats originally coded to work in single-player mode: http://www.gamefaqs.com/pc/466245-battl … 942/cheats
Type in game console, for example.

Re: in game console updated* question

Thanks i read the link, and found the code line in my game files " ControlMap.addKeyToTriggerMapping c_GIToggleConsole IDFKeyboard IDKey_Grave c_CMNonRepetive "   cant I just change that line without the replacement file??

Im pretty sure this is an issue with the keyboard itself, or maybe some other program that stops the console from working - really annoying as I want to use invunerable mode to experiment with  tactics on the single player maps

Re: in game console updated* question

ok thanks a lot, couple of questions before i dabble with the installation: in the first linked post you say i must use custom profile - makes sense, will that profile show in the list in the game start panel, and can i still make further modifications to that profile through the game interface, like tweaking mouse sensitivity and crosshairs colour etc?

i have downloaded the zip, i should unzip it to just documents folder and not into the game folder?

being wary because i dont want to break my game ;-}

thanks
