To do this you edit your user.ini file - I'm using the Steam version but relatively the user.ini file seems to be in the same location as you're looking. To enable the console you need to bind it to a key. You're already on the right line, however none of these commands are supposed to enable the use of the tilde key - they just enable cheat mode. So, it seems that the game acknowledges I've enabled cheats but for some reason isn't allowing me to use them. Is there perhaps a different USER.INI file which I should be working on, or is there something else I can do to enable these cheats? Or, is it likely that the GOG.com version is specially altered in some way that (intentionally or not) prevents enabling of cheats?ĮDIT: I've just noticed that, even though I still seem unable to actually access the cheats console, my save games are still flagged with CHEATS ENABLED. The USER.INI file I'm working on is stored in the following location:Ĭ:\Program Files (x86)\GOG.com\Deus Ex\System\User.ini Some of the other key mappings listed do not match my custom settings. Another thing I've noticed though, is that the USER.INI file I'm editing does not appear to match my current game configuration. Add bCheatsEnabled=True and set Tilde=type in USER.INIĭespite all of these, the game still does not respond when I press the tilde key.set DeusEx.JCDentonMale bCheatsEnabled True in the in-game chat.The Deus Ex version I'm playing is the Game Of The Year Edition, available from GOG.com. However, neither seems to be working for me.


I've tried a few of the methods laid out in the Deus Ex Wiki, as well as others mentioned in another Arqade question.
