I was able to get the console to open with c:\games\castle wolfenstein\SP\Wolf2.exe" \set sv_cheats 1 \g_fov 90 and i typed com_allowconsole 1 set sv_cheats 1 Removed the commands from the exe short cut. But i stil can't the the console to open with the key binding i set. and the ~ doesn't work either. Any ideas?
