Beginner's Console Commands Guide | PC Cheats

If you're looking to gain lots of gold, get married instantly, change your perks or float through walls, the Developer Console is how you're going to do it on PC. This special window allows you to, basically, input "Cheat codes" — you can become invincible, move faster, or unlock any number of benefits.

Using the Developer Console and Console Commands is easy, even if all the guides online make it look complicated. Here's how to get started — the easy way.

How to Input Console Commands [Cheats]
- To open the Developer Console window and input Console Commands, press Tilde [~] — this is the key located above TAB on your keyboard.
- Type the code into the window to input it, then press ENTER. This will exit the Developer Console Window.
  - EXAMPLE: player.additem f 100
    - This will add 100 gold to your inventory.

Now you can open the Console Commands window and input codes. Now let's get started and cover all the most important codes you'll want to use in Skyrim.

player.addperk 00079349

- Raw Version: player.addperk <PerkID>

help daedric

What does it do?:This code will list all daedric ItemIDs in the developer console window.

If the term you're typing has more than one word, use quotation marks.

What does it do?: Instantly changes the sex of a target NPC / actor. If an actor is not targeted, will change the player character's sex.

tcl

What does it do?:Toggles collision on / off. You will be able to fly through walls, floors, and anything else! Lets you get amazing views of the environment from the sky. Can also be used to fly to the end of dungeons or over annoying obstacles. Input the code again to toggle it off.
- Warning: Make sure you toggle this code off while standing above flat ground! Toggling off inside walls / floors may cause your game to crash.

tai

What does it do?:Toggles NPC AI on / off on targeted NPC or enemy.
- Entering this command with no current target will disable AI on all actors in the world. Input again to disable.

tcai

What does it do?: Like "tai" — this instead only disables COMBAT AI.
- Disables combat AI on the targeted actor, or will disable combat AI globally if no actors are targeted.

What does it do?: Toggles the HUD — perfect for getting awesome screenshots.

showracemenu

What does it do?:Re-opens the character customization menu. Allows you to change your race and anything else in a flash, totally for free.

kill / kill all

What does it do?: Kills whatever your cursor is targeting. Other target-based console commands include; unlock and resurrect.
- "kill all" will kill all actors (enemies / NPCs) in your currently loaded cell. Enter a dungeon, then enter this command to kill everything in the area.

unlock

What does it do?:Like "kill" — unlocks whatever is targeted by your cursor. Will unlock doors / chests.

resurrect

What does it do?:Resurrects the target actor. Can be used to bring back dead opponents or accidental kills, or just for fun.

psb

What does it do?:Gives all spells, shouts, and beast forms. Shouts still require Dragon Souls to activate.
- WARNING: This may cause your game to crash. Save before attempting!
