How exactly do I use this 'console' dealy?

    [​IMG] I hear more and more of this console, which can do just about anything in BGII.

    How exactly do I access it, and is it possible to transport my party to another location on the world map? I remember the Extremist posting a list of just about everywhere with what looked to be a code beside it...

    You can follow the instructions in powerusers.txt. Basically you need to add two lines to your baldur.ini file:

    [Program Options]
    Debug Mode=1

    {Game Options]
    Cheats=1

    then you can access the console by pressing CTRL+Space. There are many uses for it and many sites that discuss its use (including many posts here) but beware, the consequences of misuse can ruin your game.
     
  3. Widrig, if you haven't beat SoA, don't use the CLUA Console. Playing w/o cheats for the first or second time would be quite disappointing, IMHO.

    I NEVER posted such list (codes of all locations).

    I did posted a list with codes of dungeons, and in Romancing Guide you can find those plus list with codes of "outdoors" areas.

    However, that list has nothing to do with console misuse to "teleport" somewhere - it is just a remider for romancing (and some quests) because those won't be triggered in dungeons, and some of them are triggered only outdoors.

    Finally, a code for area you're currently exploring in a game you can easily find out by pressing X on the keyboard. It has nothing to do with cheating and enabling console is not necessary for that.
