Dragon Age: Origins Message Board  

could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?

I've added the "-enabledeveloperconsole" to the launcher and changed the parameters for openconsole_0 to x in the "Keybindings.ini" file and I still dont get the console to open, I mean that the game freezes and weird numbers and letters appear at the top of the sceen.

That is the console, you just cannot see what you are typing, and to get the numbers off, press the tilde key again, and press enter until you can move around again.

i got that but a lot of previous post talk about weird numbers and letters at the top of the screen is that just something that happens random ?
plus the game dosent freeze for me

Eh, it happens everytime i press the tilde key to get the console up, its easy to make the letters go away though.

I dont have those letters and numbers either but the console works fine with me...

best way to actually see if im in the console is to use the runscript (c and i are keys bound to open up the character screen and inventory) and when I'm in the console those windows dont open...

and to make sure I wasn't using a previously bound key I set mine to open on shift + / (numpad divide).

I need to add to my previous post and question... Since I must not be good in hex editing... how doing that to access the .erf will give me the info I need? (I did try opening the erf in hex editor) I mean aren't those erf some type of archive containing other files like in previous Bioware games?

Oh well... guess I'll have to wait for a good soul to extract all the commands and upload them on the web... Or for the toolset to be released...

I am more into looking for items right now.. since I was able to add lockpicking to my warrior...

Your problem is really simple. You've edited launcher shortcut.
You have to make shortcut to daorgins.exe. it is located in C:\Program Files (x86)\BioWare\Dragon Age\bin_ship for example
And You have to edit THIS!!!

I add the spell ID for Mage base spell and Skills fresh from my xml save. I haven't tested all of them but I doubt I made any mistakes.

(I'll finally be able the redo few things on my mage \o/)
