Frequently Asked Questions

Are console commands safe to use?

Console commands are generally safe when used in offline mode. However, they can potentially cause game crashes or save file corruption. Always backup your save files before using major cheats and avoid using commands online to prevent bans.

Can I get banned for using cheats?

Yes, you can be banned if you use cheats while playing online or in multiplayer. Always use cheats in offline mode only. WeMod and other trainers clearly state they don’t condone online cheating and you’re responsible for any bans.

What’s the difference between console commands and WeMod?

Console commands are built-in developer tools accessed through the debug console, while WeMod is a third-party trainer that provides a graphical interface for cheats. Console commands offer more granular control, while WeMod is more user-friendly for beginners.

Why won’t the console open when I type “cheatstick”?

This is usually due to keyboard layout issues. Ensure you’re using a US keyboard layout, or try switching to it temporarily. Also, make sure you’re typing it correctly without quotes and that the game is not paused.

Can I use cheats on the Steam Deck?

Yes, but you may need to use an external keyboard or configure the Steam Deck’s virtual keyboard properly. The process is the same, but input methods may vary.

Will using achievements disable achievements?

Using console commands and cheats typically disables achievement progression for that save file. If you want to earn achievements, play without cheats or use a separate save file for cheating.

How do I spawn specific items?

Use the additem [item name] command for common items, or spawnitem [item ID] [quantity] for precise spawning. Refer to the complete item ID list in this guide for specific item numbers.

Can I remove spawned items or companions?

Use removeallitems to clear your inventory, but be careful as this removes most items. For companions, there’s no direct removal command, but you can use killradius [number] to eliminate everything in a radius (including your companions if they’re too close).

Do console commands work in multiplayer?

Console commands work differently in multiplayer. Some commands may affect all players, while others only affect the host. Always get consent from other players before using commands in multiplayer sessions.

How often are new console commands added?

New console commands are typically added with major game updates. Check the official patch notes and community resources for information about new commands and cheat options.
