Fallout 3 Overview
Fallout 3 has so far had a great story line for all collections. Looking to see others post on this topic and see what you think about FO3, FNV and FO4 information. Without a doubt the story line I prefer for all the entertainment in the series is for the first game.
Fallout 3 Console Commands
Or as in a gambling game, press ~ to show the console window. Then, type the following codes and press [Enter] to open the corresponding cheat:
The key can be determined above the TAB (next to ‘1’ on the left.)
Command | Syntax | Description |
player.addItem | player.additem [item code] [amount] [silent] | This command will add the item of the specified ID to your inventory. You can also specify an amount, which will make the command give you that amount of the item. If you specify a 1 at the end of the command (silent), no confirmation message will be shown. |
player.removeAllItems | player.removeallitems | This command will clear your character’s inventory (remove all items). |
player.removeItem | player.removeitem [item code] [amount] | This command, as the name would suggest, removes the specified item from your inventory. If an amount is specified, it will remove that amount of the item. |
player.kill | player.kill | This command will set your health to 0, killing you. |
player.addperk | player.addperk [perk id] | This command will give your character the perk with the specified ID. |
player.removeperk | player.removeperk [perk id] | The command will remove the perk with the specified ID from your character. |
player.sexchange | player.sexchange | This command will change the sex of your character (switch between male and female). |
player.setlevel | player.setlevel [level] | This cheat will set your character’s level to level specified. |
player.resethealth | player.resethealth | This command will restore your health to its maximum level (100%). |
player.setrace | player.setrace [race id] | This cheat will change the race of your Fallout character, relative to the specified race. Use ‘human’ to return to normal form. NOTE: You may experience issues switching races if your character does not have default appearance settings. Use the ‘showlooksmenu’ command to change your character’s looks. |
player.getav | player.getav [character variable id] | This command will print to console the value of the specified player variable. For a list of player variable IDs, please see this page. |
player.setav | player.setav [character variable id] [value] | This command will set the specified player variable to the specified value. |
player.modav | player.modav [character variable id] [value] | This cheat is similar to the setav command, but instead of setting the player variable to specified value, it will add the value to the existing value. |
player.forceav | player.forceav [character variable id] [value] | This command will forcefully set the specified player variable to the specified value. The difference between this command and setav is that this command will set the value of the player variable irrespective of all modifiers. For example, if you had +10 sneak from armor and used setav to set your sneak to 20, you’d have a total of 30 sneak but with this command, your total sneak would be 20 as it ignores all factors and changes the absolute value, not the base value. |
player.PlaceAtMe | player.placeatme [item id] [amount] [quality] | This command will spawn an item, character (NPC), creature or object in front of your player. |
showlooksmenu player 1 | showlooksmenu player 1 | This command will open up the looks menu so that you can change the look (e.g. hair, eyes, etc) of your character. |
showspecialmenu | showspecialmenu | This command opens up the special menu. The special menu can be used to change your character’s name and modify S.P.E.C.I.A.L. points. |
player.moveto | player.moveto [item/npc/object id] | This command will teleport your character to the NPC, object or item with the specified ID. |
help | help [“search term”] [search type] [form id] | This command can be used to search for functions, item codes, IDs for NPCs/objects, settings and much more. See argument explanation for details. |
Clear | clear | This command clears the console of all existing messages. |
ShowAllMapMarkers | showallmapmarkers [enable / disable] | This command can be used to enable (discover) and disable (undiscover) map markers. Map markers allow for fast travel. |
ToggleGodMode | togglegodmode | This command toggles (enables and disables) god mode for your character. In god mode, your character is invincible, meaning you cannot take damage (from everything, including radiation, oxygen, etc). |
ToggleImmortalMode | toggleimmortalmode | This cheat toggles (enables and disables) immortal mode for your character. In immortal mode, your character will still takes damage but cannot die as your health will never reach 0. |
ToggleCollision | togglecollision | This command toggles (enables and disables) noclip mode. In no clip mode your character does not collide with solid objects in the world, this allows you to move through walls, etc. This command is useful for getting unstuck from a location and accessing usually out-of-bounds locations. |
ToggleGamePause | togglegamepause | This command toggles (enables and disables) the game pause. When paused, the game is frozen, after resuming, the game continues from the second before it was paused. |
SetCameraFOV | setcamerafov [third person fov] [first person fov] | This command can be used to set both the first and third person field of views (FOVs). A field of view is how wide your character can see. |
ToggleFlyCam | toggleflycam [freeze] | This command toggles (enables and disables) flycam (freecam) for your character. In flycam mode, the camera becomes disconnected from your character – you can move it about to explore the world around your character (which will stay where it was when you enabled fly cam mode). After disabling flycam mode, your camera will return to its original position and control the character again. |
SetUfoCamSpeedMult | setufocamspeedmult [speed] | This command can be used to change the speed the flycam mode camera moves at (slow it down or speed it up). |
ToggleMenus | togglemenus | This command will hide the UI, including the console. To enable the UI again, type the command into the console again – note that the console hotkey will still open the console, even though you can’t see it (when the UI is hidden). |

Fallout Inventory Console Commands
- player.setweaponhealthperc <percentage> – sets currently equipped weapon’s health. For example, player.setweaponhealthperc 100 would fully repair the currently equipped weapon.
- player.additem <form id> <amount> – get the indicated amount of the selected item.
- Example: player.additem 0000000f 200 – adds 200 caps to the player money/inventory.
- It is also possible to exclude the zeroes before the item’s formID in the command line and it would register as the item’s ID assuming it is not from outside of the base game.
- Example: player.additem 8ED03 300 – adds 300 9mm round to the player inventory.
- player.removeitem <form id> <amount> – remove the indicated amount of the selected item.
- player.addnote <form id> – add indicated note.
- player.removenote <form id> – remove the indicated note. If it is a physical note (such as written texts), the note is deleted permanently unless added via console again.
- player.additemhealthpercent <form id> <amount> <quality> – add item to your inventory, with a specified condition. Quality should be given in decimal form where 1.0 = 100%.
- Example: player.additemhealthpercent 000fd771 99 .01 will add 99 Vault 3 utility jumpsuits at 1% to the player’s inventory.
- setownership <form id> – make the item owned by an actor’s form id (or player if unspecified) by mouse left-click on item and typing setownership (for instance, a cabinet or a bed; already owned property will still deduct Karma)
- clearownership – make the item unowned
- unlock – unlock doors, safes, terminals or any other locked containers. You can get the unique ID of an item by clicking on it while you have the console open, causing it to print out on the command line, preferably after you type “unlock ” and a space. Please note that the “unlock” command may not work on a very limited number of locks, safes and/or terminals. However, it will open anything that is meant to be opened directly from the door/safe/container, and some more that are game breaking, like the elevator behind Benny’s room leads to a vault, and the doors that are not meant to be opened will lead to bottomless gray pits. If you jump into the pit, it drops you to the stairs under the Vault 21 gift shop.
- lock <lock level> – lock doors, safes, terminals or any other unlocked containers. Adding a number after lock sets the difficulty. For example, lock 0 would create a very easy lock, lock 25 an easy lock, and lock 100 a very hard lock. Lock 101 will make the item unpick-able (Requires Key).
- activate <form id> – doors, switches, radios and other objects that have multiple states can have their state changed by a specified form id, either numeric or player.
- player.srm – Self-repair of items up to your current repair skill. Note that you can’t repair all items in one command (‘A’ on PC) if the total cost of the repair is more caps than you currently have, forcing you to do repair individual items until the total amount needed to repair all items in a single command is less than your total caps on hand. Regardless of the method, all caps “spent” on repairs are paid to you, netting a total cost of zero. This is particularly handy before you sell items, raising their value considerably.
- setpccanusepowerarmor 1 – make power armor wearable. If you can already wear power armor and type 0 instead of 1, you will no longer be able to wear it.
- player.showinventory – shows player inventory and item ID’s of all player inventory items.
- resetinventory – resets the inventory of the selected container.
