    [​IMG] I know I have seen it on these message boards somewhere. Something about using control q to see other npc's stats. I don't get it, I of course have pressed control q but nothing is happening. I don't think this is in the manual, I've looked. Well I'm just curious.

    you have to enable it first. I don't remember exactly. You have to add another line in the baldur.ini file. There is file you can download from this site. Don't know what it's called though

    [​IMG] First save your baldur.ini file somewhere so in case you manage to mess up you can just restore it. This is always a good idea when changing ini-files.


    In baldur.ini find where it says [Program Options].
    Below that you type in the following:

    Debug Mode=1

    Note: It must be Debug Mode=1, not debug mode=1 or anything else.)

    Typing in that line in the ini file is not enough.

    Once in game, you will need to hit ctrl-space, which will bring up a console. Type the following line exactly as you see it:

    CLUAConsole:EnableCheatKeys()

    That will allow you to use the various cheat keys (including ctrl-q).

    Have fun! :)
