Fallout 4 Console Commands

An overview of console commands for Fallout 4.

Overview
The console is a debugging tool in the PC version of Fallout 4. It is used for altering content while in-game. It cannot be used in the game console versions or in Survival mode.

About
In order to access the console, you will need to use the key appropriate for your language (as shown in the list of console keys).

The HUD will disappear and you will get a prompt (--- |) in the lower-left corner of the screen where you can input commands as listed below (The console will also remember any previously entered commands, which you can scroll through with the Up and Down Arrow keys). While the console is open, the game will pause and the camera will freeze. If the left side of the console is not visible, one may need to edit the Fallout4_Default.ini file in the installation folder.

Increasing the iConsoleTextXPos variable will move the prompt further right into the field of view. Fallout 4 does not require turning off an Xbox/PS Controller if you are using one, to use the console. If you are using a controller, use your keyboard to enable the console.

Papyrus scripts
The Papyrus scripting engine contains a large number of script functions many of which have no equivalent console command. You can call these functions from within the console using the following console commands.


 * or – Calls function on referenced target ID.
 * Example: this will attach the mod "46d90" (heavy armor) to the base item "536c4" (metal chest piece) in the targetID's inventory. You could use this after  to guarantee that at least one metal chest piece in the target's inventory will be the Heavy variant.
 * Function: The console searches for the function on any scripts currently attached to the reference. If multiple scripts are found with the same function, you will have to clarify which script using the "Script.Function" syntax. Make sure to encapsule Script.Function in quotes "".
 * Parameters: These are optional, and can be added if the called function needs them. Up to 10 parameters can be added, each separated by a space. If the parameter contains a space, encapsulate it in quotes "".
 * or – Calls a function on the specified quest.
 * or – Calls a global function.
 * Example: will display an ingame notification with the text "Hello there."
 * Note: Unlike CallFunction and CallQuestFunction this command requires that the function uses the "Script.Function" syntax.

Cheat scripts
On PC, place a text file (.txt) in Steam\Steamapps\Common\Fallout 4 with any or all of the below commands, ending with a semicolon and a new command on each line. To run the script while in-game, open the console and type without the file-type extension. For example, if the file name is "test.txt", simply type in-game to run the script and all of the commands will be applied instantly.

Visual bug glitches & annoyances
There is currently a bug going around that involves locking the imagespace mod of the Recon sight and/or the Night vision sight. Use these two codes to correct them.

rimod 00094636; rimod 002041b6;

To completely disable all imagespace modifiers use the following command:

sisme 0;

This will disable all image space modifications which can hide some effects that tend to be more of an annoyance than a benefit (i.e. extreme brightness or blurriness when going stealth).
