Console (Dragon Age II)

The developer console is an in-game command line tool that allows you to perform functions which are not normally possible (multiple classes, new items, kill all enemies on screen, immortality, etc).

Using a shortcut
Make a shortcut to your "da2.exe" file (typically located in the C:\Program Files (x86)\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship folder) on your desktop, Start Menu, or wherever. Right click on the shortcut, choose properties, then add the following to the end of line in the "Target" field: -enabledeveloperconsole — it should look something like this:


 * "C:\Program Files (x86)\Dragon Age 2\bin_ship\DragonAge2.exe" -enabledeveloperconsole
 * "C:\Program Files (x86)\Dragon Age 2 Demo\bin_ship\DragonAge2Demo.exe" -enabledeveloperconsole

Be sure that there is a single space between the last quotation mark and the hyphen.

Console commands
Type the following commands into the console after activating it. Note that you often won't see any notification that something has changed. Also note that you will not see the console, or what you are typing - this is normal. Furthermore, note that the console is automatically closed when you press Enter, so there is no need to "toggle it off" (doing so will bring it back on, which can make it seem like the game is stuck and doesn't respond to input).
