Enter enable_system_console=true

[Per]

Can somebody tell me excactly how to enter enable_system_console=true and which version to use it with?

[Slaughter]

It should work with all versions. The shortcut would in my case look like this: "D:\Games\UFO Aftershock\UFO.exe" enable_system_console=true

 

As for the button you use to open the console, that depends on your keyboard setting, and I haven't studied it yet.

If I'm not mitaken, this cheat is different from how Aftershock worked as is doesn't look for the symbol, but the position of the key pressed.

 

By what I've read, for all QWERTY keyboards, the button should be the one "under" the letter "P" one, whatever it may contain. What I'm not certain about is if the SHIFT key has to be pressed or not to enter the console.

 

Note that I can only go by what I've read, and not give out any personal experience about it.

UFO: Aftershock [PC - Space geopolitics Simulation] Ver 1.2 - Cheat

 

 

 

Activate cheat mode:

Right click the UFO: Aftershock desktop icon, after click on properties and add the

following command line parameter in target field: --options enable_system_console=true

 

example: C:\Games\CENEGA\UFOAftershock\UFO.exe --options enable_system_console=true

 

Must be a space between the added words and the target destination path.

Save and normally start the game. During gameplay now you can bring up the

system console by pressing the " ` " button on keyboard.

 

 

Now you can enter one of the following codes in the command line and edit nearly

all settings by only opening the System Console.

 

 

? - List of all possible codes

win_mission - Instantly win mission

untouch - Immortal solders

full_heal - All units healed

add_resource #, #, #, # - Additional Resources

In my case, I've been playing the game in Safe Mode (This disables the sound)

 

to get (enable_system_console=true) to actually work, you have to set "true" to "TRUE"

 

See, I copied the "Play in Safe Mode" icon and pasted it onto my desktop, then I went to the properties and found the command line.

In the command line, it had values added at the end such as:

 

--options use_safe_refresh=TRUE use_shaders=FALSE old_va_mode=TRUE scale_texs=2 nosound=TRUE

 

I simply pasted the enable_system_console=true in and made it:

 

--options use_safe_refresh=TRUE use_shaders=FALSE old_va_mode=TRUE scale_texs=2 nosound=TRUE enable_system_console=TRUE

 

(English, Retail version of Aftershock of WinXP)

 

As for opening the console, ' is the symbol. If you don't know it eg: DON(')T

That symbol in the bracket for DON'T is what you're looking for.
