Console won't open

I have changed the config files to console = true and consolekey = 192 but I see nothing when I press the tilde key I have played the game through a few times and never had issues with it. Any hints how to get into the console? Do I need a modding addon?

The only thing diff is I am playing in 4k but I dont see how that can effect console, :x

Perhaps your keyboard/WindowsOS(?) is set to a local language? (with different scan-codes)

You can always try a different key. For mine, I set the key to the backslash " \ " (for some unknown reason years back); the one above the enter/return key. (It has the silly side effect of not allowing me to type escapes in the console, but I've never bothered to change it.)

My config setting is:

Code: Select all

console = true
consoleKey = 220

Well that worked!! Thanks for the help. But I have no idea why it didnt work before, I did cut and paste your text so it might of been a typo or something.
