Frequently asked questions
- Console won't open? Check the layout (English is needed) and whether the key is pressed together with FN on the laptop.
- Where can I get item IDs? From the Fallout Wiki (fallout.fandom.com) - Every weapon, armor, and schematic has a Form ID.
- Do cheats break the game? Not on their own, but tcl through story doors and killing quest NPCs can break the quest - save before experimenting.
- Does it work in GOTY edition and on Windows 11? Yes; If the game crashes on modern PCs, the Games for Windows Live Disabler patch and the 2-core limit in fallout.ini help.
