    [​IMG] I have tried over and over to get the Cheats=1 thing to work, but it never does. Can someone explain to me how this damn thing works? Thanks a lot.

    Donwload the latest patch.

    To enable the cheats, hit CTRL-TAB or ALT-TAB.

    In fact, quite frankly I don't even know myself. I read it once quickly and never looked at it again. I tried to find it out for you on the official message board but found nothing since they changed to some garbage message system.

    CHEATS=1 has to be in the .ini file. Then it's CTRL-TAB or ALT-TAB to get the cheat line. Then you enter your cheat code. I think that's how it works.

    [​IMG] I haven't personally done this, but it should work like Sylvus said. The patch can be found ont he official web sight for the game. Go to www.blacksle.com and find your way to the IWD sight from there. The Latest patch should have a download link.

    I know that this is going to make me sound like a moron, but is the ini file the one that you open with notepad?

    [​IMG] yes use notepad too open it and from what i remember from doing it to BG, under game options type Cheats=1 (just like that) and hit enter so you have a space between Cheats=1 and the next section which i believe is CONFIG. i did not hit enter after typeing Cheat=1 in BG and the cheats did not work. went back and fixed it though. i am not sure about IWD ( i perfer not to cheat until i have finished a game a couple of times). hope this helps.
