trainers?

Honestly, either play the game it was meant to be played, or just don't play it

Do you mean ShadowKeeper or the Console? If you have installed the game, then you will have a baldur.ini file, though it might not have the .ini part when you look in your folder (I know in mine all it says is "baldur"). It is the notebook-looking one in your main folder. Once you find that, then under [Program Options] (probably the first header in the file), you type in Debug Mode=1, and then the Console itself should pop up in-game when you tell it to ([CTRL] + [SPACE]). As for ShadowKeeper, I am completely lacking in all technical skill with that sort of thing, so I can't help you.

Sorry for going OT here - but that is simply due to your windows settings. Under your Tools -> Folder Options -> View; there is a list, and somewhere on that list is checked "Hide Extensions for known file types". Unchecking this and making all folders like this one will display extensions again, making it loads easier for you to find the right file (stopid thing Windows have this... :) )


@KeeB:
There can be many reasons why people need to get some "cheats" to work. Wether it be the console options or Shadowkeeper. As long as it is singleplayer, there is no need to judge like that :)

@KeeB, the GB forums are neither pro- nor anti-cheat. If people want to discuss cheats, they are allowed to do so, here. If you have a problem with this, send it on to the site owner. Please don't share these views with those who want cheats; it's their perogative.

@Skaman14, just as a suggestion: when you start up a thread like this, it's better to be a bit more articulate in defining your needs in the title. "Help" doesn't really cut it too well. "Help with console codes" will attract the kind of attention you want. ;)

Thanks Xandax. Your advice has helped enormously. And it's perfectly alright to go OT (though if I knew what "OT" was, maybe I'd feel differently? :) ).

No problem - and OT means Off Topic :)
