Console doesn't work

Post by Shadowfied »

Hi!

I've checked the official modding guide and the thread about changing the console key and I've tried multiple buttons, but it just won't open.

The cfg file does save, I tried changing the forward button to 115, which made F4 walk forward, and I put the consoleKey to W (consolekey = 87) but the console just won't work. Is there anything I've missed?

Sorry for double posting, but I really want the console to work...No one has any idea? It works for all of you by just adding consoleKey = 115 or another button in the cfg?

The focus needs to be in the preview window when you press the console key.

If you'd like to enable the console for in-game debugging, you also need to additionally have "console = true" in grimrock.cfg.

EDIT: hope this helps! :)

Had to remove the grimrock.dat file and the grimrock.exe file and verify the files with Steam. Maybe it's because I used the "hack" earlier to access the console.

Is there a way to make the console bigger with more lines?

Nope but I'll add it to my todo list which is getting rather long suddenly :)

May I also suggest a clean console button?

Nvm, you can just type clear, hehe.
