HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Ok I've reaches my last problem ive had so far in TSL. I just installed it and am trying to get rid of all the bugs/crashes. My last problem is the cheats are not working. I've enabled them undar game options: EnableCheats=1. I hit the ~ button. My test cheat is heal. I type it it nothing happens. I have TSL fully patched 2.10 with Vista Home Premium. Any suggestions?
Rathoris Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 this utility makes life alot easier... http://knightsoftheoldrepublic.filefront.com/file/KOTOR_and_TSL_Save_Game_Editor_English_Language_Only;68852 won't really need cheats with this tbh. Hope it serves your needs well enough.
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 Thanks for responding. Yeah i have KSE but its not working with TSL. I used it with K1 some to edit my feats. Any other possible fixes?
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 You can heal IN-GAME using the save editor? I don't think so. I've had this problem before, where enable cheats was on and it didn't do anything in-game. All I did was restarted my computer and the game, and it worked again. Not much fun to have to restart everytime it doesn't work...but this exact problem has happened rarely for me.
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 ok ill try that I rarely turn off my computer due to the hibernate setting on vista. Expect a edit to say if it works or not. EDIT: Nope when I type my cheat heal when i hit L the party menu comes up. Cheats still not working.

EDIT: Nope when I type my cheat heal when i hit L the party menu comes up. Cheats still not working. That means you didn't hit the tilde key. If you did hit it no shortcut commands should be working.
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 I did hit ~ and shortcut commands are workin i think. Its like it dosent read the enablecheats on.
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I did hit and shortcut commands are workin i think. Its like it dosent read the enablecheats on. If you wanna be sure you DID in fact hit the tilde key (this is what I always do), you just try moving your character around. If you can, you didn't hit the key. If you can't move, you hit they key. I know it may seem obvious to yourself if you pressed a key on your keyboard...but yeah. If you did hit it and can still access game shortcuts and other things then something is really messed up.
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 I hit the ~ and im still moving around. I guess it means its not reading the enablecheats=1?
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I hit the ~ and im still moving around. I guess it means its not reading the enablecheats=1? I think EnableCheats needs to capitalized...the E and C...otherwise I don't think it gets recongnized... Not sure if it NEEDS to be capitalized...but might be something you would wanna try it if isn't.
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 Well...I just uncapitalized my EnableCheats and it didn't work (as in the cheat console didn't work)... That's the only other solution I can come up with at the moment. If you're saying everything is as it should be I don't know what to say really...
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 Ok thanks for the help so far. im going to start messing with KSE see if that will work. Im having a lot of problems with TSL First the sound thing had to replace that. Then had to patch the game, then my load stopped working. Reinstalled game, replaced sound and patched again, then KSE not working, now cheats. EDIT: due to the problems i have a new custom title
Da_Man_2423 Posted June 25, 2008 Posted June 25, 2008 I found a guy on a different forum who said he had cheats enabled but still wasn't working. I found it kind of weird since he said he had cheats enabled but then mentions something about needing to edit the .ini file again later in the thread... He doesn't really mention EXACTLY what to do to fix it...but provided some detail. Clicky. Something about locales? Don't really know... Maybe you can make some sense out of it...being a Vista user and all.
HK-42 Posted June 25, 2008 Author Posted June 25, 2008 I got as far as C:/Users/Username/ then no appsdata folder I dont know. Im more skilled with XP. Im going to start googling it
NightHammer Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Is the problem that cheats don't work or you just can't see the console? If the case is you just can't see the console in the upper left corner, then you CAN use cheats. The console, at least for me, is invisible and you'll just have to hope you typed it in correctly. Also, having cap lock on prevents cheats from working.
HK-42 Posted June 27, 2008 Author Posted June 27, 2008 Nope the console I am aware is invisible having to had used them on my Xp. The problem as stated in many posts above is I added EnableCheats=1 to the swkotor2.ini the same way as K1 etc... and when I hit ` I can still move, game shortcuts work, and cheats obviously do not work. So I think for some reason EnableCheats=1 is not being read.
ObiLaws Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Are you sure you typed EnableCheats=1 in the correct spot? Like under Game Options and at the bottom.
Q Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 Firstly: I'm sorry, but isn't there an entire, stickied thread in the Work Bench dedicated to dealing with the quirks of running KotOR and KotOR2 on Vista? And isn't this very issue addresed there? Secondly: Wouldn't it be worth the $75 to $90 to go buy an OEM copy of XP and set up a dual-boot so that you won't ever have to deal with the problems of running old games on Vista? Hmmm...
Arcesious Posted June 29, 2008 Posted June 29, 2008 I could be a programming conflict, or perhaps something much simpler to fix... I suggest you show us what your swkotor2.ini says, and we'll be able to see if there's a problem.
Sgt. Strike Posted June 30, 2008 Posted June 30, 2008 Are you playing from the shortcut on your desktop, or from the start menu anywhere? The EnableCheats won't work if you run it from the start menu. Try just from the shortcut you modified. Anyway, that might be the first thing to try. As for healing, I normally don't need to heal, a whole lot, during the first part of the game. It dpends on how you have it set up, and everything.

Da_Man_2423 Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Does EnableCheats=1 need to be RIGHT under game options? I don't think that should matter but you might wanna try that.
HK-42 Posted July 2, 2008 Author Posted July 2, 2008 no that dont work i use to have it right under than i moved it al bottom no results
