Console In Fallout 4
Fallout 4 Cheats and Console Commands (MORE Updated!) This is a Fallout 4 cheats, tips and console command guide. It is in TABLE format (easy to read.) While playing the game, press ' or @ ( or ` for US Layout keyboards) to display the console window. Then, type one of the following codes and press Enter to activate the corresponding cheat function. Fallout 4 Cheats & Console Commands. Ready for Fallout 4 cheats? Now lets get to the goodies. In this game cheats are the same as Fallout 4 console commands which only work for the pc versions and not the ps4, or xbox one versions. This means you actually have to access it through the console, and this is how you do it.
Fallout 4 is a game with a thousand systems all clicking and whirring behind its Boston wasteland. Since you’re playing the game on PC, those systems are easily exploited by typing a few things into the game’s developer console. If you’re feeling like you’d like to make a few tweaks to how the game plays, or even just simply ‘magic’ up a few free items into your inventory by cheating, then these Fallout 4 console commands are exactly what you need.
First time here? Be sure to check out our homepage for news, reviews, features, and everything else you need to know about PC games.
How do you enter Fallout 4 commands?
To use Fallout 4’s commands, you’ll need to open the developer console screen. This is easily done by tapping the tilde (~) key, which can be found under the Esc key, and just to the left of the 1 key on an American English keyboard. If you’re using a British English keyboard, you’ll need to tap the grave (`) key, which is located in the same place.
When typing in console commands, remember that commands are not case sensitive, so don’t worry about caps lock. You’ll find that many commands will have a section that says something like <itemID> <#>. In these cases, do not type the <> brackets, nor the #. Instead, type out the name of the item you want, and follow up by replacing the # with the number of items you require.
Fallout 4 PC Cheats and Console Commands
God Mode
tgm
Turns on god mode, making you invincible. Type the command into the console again to turn it off.

Fallout 4 and Skyrim are both built using similar technology, so many of Skyrim’s console commands work with Fallout 4. If you can’t find the command your looking for here, try a Skyrim console command instead. It may just work!

The simplest way to take photos is to pause the game with the console as soon as you see something you'd want a picture of.
Pressing ~ opens the console, obviously. The action is paused now. If you want, you can just take a screenshot with the console open, but that's dumb.
Toggle Menu will make the menu disappear, including the UI. You have to enter it again to make them come back.
But that's not good enough.
Toggle Free Camera will put you into a free camera mode controlled with WASD and the mouse. You can angle it anywhere you want and clip through objects to get a good shot. If you're in third person when you use TFC, you will be able to see your character. In first person, they are still the camera and thus cannot be seen. But this unpauses the action, because it can't be done with the console open..
Toggle Free Camera 1 also pauses all animations. I'm not sure what the difference is between it and TGP as I have not used it before.
Set UFO Cam Speed Multiplier changes the free camera movement speed. Replace <int> with a number. 20 is the default.
Toggle Game Pause pause the action completely. Using TFC and TGP at the same time can be a bit buggy (activating one cancels out the other, sometimes) so always use them at the same time. Open the console, type in tfc, type in tgp, then close the console. Don't exit it in-between or you'll miss the critical moment you were trying to get a picture of, because TGP won't activate properly.
Toggle Immortality Mode will allow you to take damage but not die. Unlike god mode, you can still use healing items while in immortality mode, so you can get action shots including those of you healing, if you want. Otherwise, in-battle action shots should be done with TGM, because TIM can result in some permanent glitches if you use it while dying and then save.
Toggle Clipping lets you move around the game's 3D space without restriction. You can go up, down, through things, etc. Use this to get on roofs or hard to reach place or unique places to take fancy screenshots.
Character Light Off and Character Light On turn off/on a feature that makes characters glow with a fake lighting effect to keep them visible even in dark situations. Things tend to look nicer with it off.
Clear Screen Blood removes blood spatters from the screen.
Clicking on an NPC while in the console and using Unequip All removes their clothes.
Place At Me, along with the base_id of an NPC (google it to find it), will place that NPC at your location. Not recommended to save after using if you spawn an NPC that isn't an enemy or a companion. Use this to get companions to follow you instantly to hard to reach places or to invite major storyline NPCs to hang out at your house. Or spawn tons of deathclaws.
Toggle AI stops NPCs from having AI.
Toggle Control will let you take control of an NPC. You still have control over yourself, though. Use this to get action shots of NPCs. Particularly useful to get shots of your character and an NPC both running, or to get an NPC to use a piece of equipment.
Show Looks Menu opens the in-game character creation. Use it while selecting an NPC or put their ID after the command. Be sure you're looking right at them in good lighting or you won't be able to see their face to edit it! Change hair, facial structure, facial hair, anything you want, even weight/muscles.
Set the Scale of an item or NPC. I like using it to make NPCs different heights. My companion is about 3 inches taller than I am. You can make enemies teeny tiny, or make characters teeny tiny, or make objects really big, whatever you want. Giant power armor robot? You can do that. Some clipping issues. Objects are still just as small or large as they're supposed to be, they just look different.
Set Game Hour To (time). Self explanatory. Change the time of day without waiting.

This will spawn a workshop. You can build things in the immediate area around it like a settlement if you activate god mode. Use this to place props.
