Help with Console Command Issue

Post by midget »

(If this is in the wrong section sorry)
I seem to be having trouble using the console commands.
I can access the console command box no problem, when I try to summon somthing though I get nothing
I running UT-GOTY and type in the following command:
after I've done the cheat one( dunno if thats allowed to be posted so i'll leave that bit blank)
then I type
summon unreali.warlord
but no warlord :( nor Titan nor any other monster I've tried.
My G/F running the same game can summon them no problem.
Both games are patched up to 436 and have the bonus packs as well
Is the some setting I'v missed that'll help me I've looked through both ini files but can't see any different settings
any help you can off would be much appreciated.

Can you "summon minigun2" for example? If yes I think you need to check the INIs - Hell I dont know which one atm - for a setting uhm like .. how exactly was that called.. something with NoMonsters Allowed?
Ok better wait for somebody else here. :ironic:

don't know about the minigun2 havn't tried that one yet i'll try that now.
Off the top of my head in the unrealtournament.ini where it says NoMonsters Allowed is set to false
although don't know if this is relevant all the monster parts in my .ini are
bNoMonsterAllowed don't know if that makes a difference?

**Edit** Just tried the minigun summon and that didn't work either
I'll have a look through my .ini's now
thanks :)

Yeah the console comes up fine (it was the tilde key but i changed that to X key for easier access) with all th action going on scrolling through it
for some reason though it just won't accept any summon commands so far I've tried Titan,Warlord and minigun2
Its patched upto 436 and has the bonus packs though I couldn't summon then before these were applied either.

Some commands like "suicide" and "addbots" are not cheats, they're commands, so they should work weather or not you put in the cheat command. So to someone who didn't know the difference it may seem that only some 'cheats' ("suicide") work, and some don't ("summon unreali.warlord") whereas it could be that no cheats work but the commands still do.
I hope you get what I mean.
Have You tried the cheats "god", "fly" and "ghost"?
P.S. I've had problems summoning the warlord, titan and a few other monsters in the past. I don't know why this is but you may want to try "iceskaarj" or "lesserbrute" because they've never been a problem.

I did some testing and discovered some (maybe known) things:
  • Summoning of both types of minigun (minigun2, unreali.minigun) works me well almost everytime.
  • When I have for example InstaGib mutator enabled, summoning of any type minigun doesn't work.
  • When I summon a titan for example, the command works for me in this way:
    summon unreali.titan
    , because the titan is originally from Unreal, not from UT.
  • When summoning a titan or some other giant beast :), I need to stand on a place big enough for the creature.
  • I can summon small things like unreali.cow or unreali.pupae without problems, but unreali.titan, unreali.warlord etc. works for me only with "ghost" enabled.
  • In UnrealTournament.ini I have in [Engine.GameInfo] one line: bNoCheating=True. Wonder, if it takes effect on something..
Hope something of that helps..
And if not, I've just learned some interesting stuff, so thx anyway. :mrgreen:
