Fallout New Vegas Console Commands

How to Open the Console and Use Commands

To open the console, press the backquote (`) or tilde (~) key. The game will pause, the user interface will disappear, and a cursor will appear in the bottom left corner of the screen. That’s where you input your console commands. After typing a command, press Enter.

After this, you may see a notification of what your code did, but not always. You can input console commands whenever, so if you do find yourself in a sticky situation, don't feel like all hope is lost. Here are a few of our favorite console commands.
