    I switched on the cheat keys recently by entering debug mode as i needed to create the FoA because i was missing a head and could no longer get it. Anyway not knowing how the cheat keys work I have accidently switched on some kind of cheat which has created a shimmering blue circle under my main character, I have no idea what this is doing, if it is some kind of shield or i inferring some bonuses but I'd really like to get rid of it. Any ideas?

    Strange. Never heard about this one. Anyway, try CTRL+R on your character, this generaly dispels everything and fixes your character. If this does not work, then this is a bug. (how convenient!) I say again, have never heard about such a cheat.

    Nah, I doubt it's a bug. You probably just pressed the effect-key. The blue circle is probably the effect from spell deflection. So, it won't do anything, it's just the visual side of spell deflection.

    Using SK to inport missing items is usually mych safer and easier than the clua console (at least I think so).

    Actually, they're about even on importing items. CLUAConsole is flawless so long as you know what you're doing, and SK probably won't have any problems either.

    Regarding Withnail's problem, I suppose loading a previous save would be too easy, wouldn't it? :bad: Well, find whichever cheat key you used to give yourself that animation, and keep punching it until you cycle back through to normal. Then learn about the cheat codes here, which are what you use to get items and such.
