i purchased the enhanced edition of BG2 from GOG and i just can't figure out how to activate the cheat menu. and i can't find this topic in the game form.

i am not exactly a tech genius so i need very specific instructions.

please, can anyone help me? :-)

The cheat console is enabled by default for the EE games. You open it in game by pressing CTRL + Space.

..I don't know if I have some other version of BG2 EE but in my game that combination doesn't work.

Open the My Documents folder.

Open the subfolder for the game in question, e.g. Baldur's Gate - Enhanced Edition.

Make a backup of the file Baldur.lua, just in case.

Open the file Baldur.lua in a text editor like Notepad++ or Wordpad (don't use Notepad, it doesn't work with .LUA files).

Add the following line: SetPrivateProfileString('Program Options','Debug Mode','1')

Save the Baldur.lua file. The cheat console should work now.

Unfortunately, it would seem that these instructions are no longer applicable.

CTRL+Space now only pauses the game even with the baldur.lua file modified as described in the various posts.

the code is correct and still works

1 check your spelling... also check you edited the right file because bg2ee is a different file to bg1ee

if above still gives you issue then press [and hold] CTRL then press [Space] because on some keyboard that matters

p.s, the [ESC] key closes the chect box

The file you have to edit for BG2 EE is called "engine.lua".
