Cheat Codes

Cheat mode

Enable the console window to be displayed by doing either of the following.

• Start the game with the +set console 1 command line parameter to allow the console window to be displayed.
• Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit either the "autoexec.cfg" or "current.cfg" file in the game directory. Add the line "console 1" to the file.

Then, press ~ during game play to display the console window, then type cheats 1 to enable cheat mode. Then, restart a new game by using the map e1m1a console command. Then, press ~ to display the console window again, and enter one of the following codes in the console window to activate the corresponding cheat function. Note: If you reach another level, the codes will automatically be disabled, and will need to be activated again. However, you will not have to restart your game again -- just enter the codes.

Hints

Keeping allies safe

Find safe places to put your allies at while you clear areas ahead. Then, summon them to your side.

Easy kills

Soften a target up with regular weapons then make the kill with the Daikatana. You will get the same amount of experience for the kill with much less work.

Stats

The only skills you need to buy are Power and Attack.

Finding Goldensoul power-ups

Be alert for the sound of a heartbeat. It indicates that the Goldensoul power-up (+100 Health) is somewhere nearby.
