'titleowner <title-id> <char-id>' Gives you the title. The one below is better.
'give_title <title-id> <char-id>' Gives you the title, and you get vassals and everything beneath it. Title IDs are predictable, in the format of e_name and k_name for empires and kingdoms, b_name and d_name for baronies and duchies. titles with spaces are either c_county_name or "c_county name". Some do not match their names, example: Rome is c_roma, the duchy of the isles is d_western_isles, the county of Leon in Brittany is c_french_leon
'kill <Character-ID#>' will kill that character immediately. Example: "kill 1234315"
'play <Character-ID#>' will change you to another character. Example: "play 1234315"

You can get character ID's by looking in your save file.Your character's id is contained in first section of the save. Search the save using your id to find desire relations.
You can also type "charinfo 1" into the console to enable more in-depth character information, including Character ID. As of now there is no known way to turn this info off again without having to exit and restart the whole game.

Want another character to accept your demand? Pause the game, ype "neg_diplo" then "charinfo 1", hover your mouse pointer over the other characters portrait and look for his ID, type "play <char-ID>", accept your own proposal, now type "play <your char-ID>" and you'll be playing as yourself again and he'll have accepted.

Army size can be changed by looking for your character's profile in save, then finding desired army and changing the two numbers representing current size and max size of that soldier type. If you are changing mercenary army size this will affect how much you pay per month.


(repeat if accepted trait does not trigger)

» Shypixels Cheat Mod.

» Trait number list for save game editing.

» Multi Event Cheat by Panadell To start it use "event 800060".
Panadells mod is very dated and may not work with newer versions.


Want Character ID's in your tooltip? »Follow these, these,and/or these,« instructions.
"charinfo 1" works too.


Want to experiment? Try these codes and tell us what they do!

recalc_succ = Not sure what this does yet. Probably something to do with succession. enable_ambition = Not sure what this does yet... probably something with ambitions. testachieve event = does something haven't had time to test it yet. guardian = Not sure what this does pirate = "No pirates here, only ninjas" not sure what this does? validate_lieges = Not sure what this does, haven't tested it yet validate_laws = Not sure what this does, haven't tested it yet morehumans = not sure what fullscreen = not sure what luado = Not sure what window = not sure open = not sure close = not sure reload = not sure mapautosave = not sure refresh_portraits = not sure

Most are ripped straight from the CheatHappens board, will be updating as more are discovered, although it would be easier if devs just told us all of them.
The one I want the most is the equivalent of yesmen/byzantine.

To get your wife pregnant : event 400

To get your wife pregnant : event 400

Can I do that in real life? Err....

[Pode]

I'll be using allow_laws a lot, so that I can raise taxes and lower levies (or vice versa) at the same time for no net change of opinion

[Nuril]

Any idea how to enable the Debug info on characters like we've seen in Previews Let's Plays? We definitely need a "view_ai" for this game too, it's very nice to be able to see how characters/tags would react to the things you mod in.

[Kluska]

The one I want the most is the equivalent of yesmen/byzantine.

Yes, man. Same here.

(See what I did there? )

[birdboy2000]

Incidentally, the play-characterID command, at least in the current version, is an easy way to switch to Muslims or Pagans. (May be using it that way myself. XP)

cheats... all ready!

Event 55000 to turn one of your foreign demesnes neighboring your mainland into your own culture.

To get your wife pregnant : event 400

So uh..I just tried that and it kinda backfired...

[Vesus]

event 404 is the event for "I just knocked up my wife" only it doesn't actually seem to make your character's wife pregnant.

baby not found.

How does that cheat work with saving? In other words, I use it and switch to my favorite heretic. If I save and re-load later, will I still be him? EDIT: I'm, ofcourse, refering to the one to change your character.

Might add that you can also open the console by holding Alt and pressing 2 and 1 on the numpad

Hahaha! I was wondering that myself, that's the one for EU:Rome. Always use it to do the cheat do let ME arrange marriages. Got tired of my ruler always marring the worse possible woman avaliable.

Idd. Just posting my opinion. I really hope newcomers (I have seen alot of them on the forum during the wait for ck2) don't get tempted they will have a big problem in mp games if they are used to cheat their way though.. but again as you said to each his own and if you bought it you can do whatever you want

Oh, I apologize. I thought you were just outright flaming. >_<

Anyway, I agree with you. Any person interested in mainly MP should really avoid this thread.

I cheated with gold sometimes in CK I, but gold seems much easier to come by in CKII so I will try to resist
