Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn Hints & Cheats

If you tried the cheat keys on this page and found out that they dont work, then here is why...

Be warned, this procedure involves modifying a game file... It is rather simple but follow the instructions carefully.

1. Open your Baldurs Gate 2 Directory
2. Copy and make a backup of the file ''baldur.ini''
3. Edit the origional file ''baldur.ini'' with notepad
4. In this file you will see a ''[Program Options]'' heading.
5. Enter a new line under the heading and type or cpy in ''Debug Mode=1''
6. Start up the game and while playing press [Ctrl] + [Space] at the same time. This will bring up a console where you can type stuff into.
7. In the console that should now be visible, type ''CLUAConsole:EnableCheatKeys()'' (without the '''').
8. Now the cheat keys should work properly. and you can enter other commands such as ''CLUAConsole:SetCurrentXP(''xxxx'')'' Where xxxx is the ammount of experience you wish to give the current selected characters. And also a handy one is ''CLUAConsole:AddGold(''<Ammount of gold you want>'')''.

Im not sure if you need the '''' inside the brackets after AddGold( but just try it with and without and one of them should work.

If you make a mistake, restore the backup version of your baldur.ini file and it will all be better again :))

Make an Elf character called Drizzt, later when you meet Drizzt and his party (after the underdark) if your reputation is below 12 Drizzt will comment on how you have stolen his name and he will challenge you.

Under multiplayer, pregenerate up to six characters. Start a game online importing all these characters. This allows you to play with a custom party, but requires you to be online everytime you play. If you save the game and drag the save file from teh mpsave folder to the save folder you can use your custom party offline. Note that the first character imported counts as the main character.

First after you have completed Shadows of Amn and have started on Throne of Bhaal or created a new ToB Character, save it and quit, then enter Shadows of Amn go to new Single Player Game and as soon as the screen goes black after it finishes loading start clicking towards the bottom-left, the HUD should flash briefly then go back, after the screen lights up you should be already standing with your armor and sword in hand. after a short delay Irenicus will appear and start his normal mumbo-jumbo, after which Imoen will come, if you did the glitch IN-correctly Imoen will walk to the door of the cage and fidget, this doesnt mean the glitch didnt work, just it worked in the wrong way. If that happens try again, when you have control of your character check your inventory, anything you had except bags of holding and other containers should be there, now if you want a semi-permenent black blade of disaster, go back to ToB and continue until you can buy it or cast it then save and re-import your character by following the steps above you should have a permenent black blade of disaster until some(one/thing) casts dispel magic on you!
