Fallout 4 cheats and cheat codes

In Fallout 4, cheats work as console commands, and the console only exists in the PC version. You open it with a single key, type the command and press Enter. The range is wide, from handing out caps and teleporting to raising your carry weight and recreating your character from scratch. The archive below sorts the commands into categories.

How do you open the cheat console?

Your choice is remembered

The Fallout 4 console opens with the key in the top-left corner of the keyboard. The game pauses while the console is open, and a command runs when you type it and press Enter. To apply a command to a target, you first need to click that character or object while the console is open.

~ (tilde)
  1. While in the game, press the ~ key in the top-left corner of the keyboard. The console opens and the game pauses.
  2. Type the command and press Enter.
  3. Press the same key again to close the console.
  4. To apply a command to a target, click that character or object first while the console is open.

On non-US keyboard layouts the ~ key may be in a different place. If the console does not open, try temporarily switching your keyboard layout to US English.

tgm

This command turns on god mode, so nothing can hurt you. Try it first to check that the console works. Typing the same command again turns it off.

  • The console only exists in the PC version. Console commands cannot be used on PlayStation or Xbox.
  • Some commands can break quest progression. Be careful with commands that change quests.
  • Making a separate save before you experiment is the cleanest approach.

Basic commands

Turns on god mode

tgm

Nothing can hurt you, and your ammo and carry weight become unlimited. Type the same command again to turn it off.

PC

Turns on immortal mode

tim

You take damage and your health drops, but you do not die. Unlike god mode, you still feel the damage.

PC

Lets you walk through walls

tcl

Collision turns off and you pass through walls and floors. The fastest way to get free when you are stuck somewhere.

If you leave the map while this is on, getting back is hard, so remember to turn it off.
PC

Unlocks the selected lock or terminal

unlock

With the console open, click a door, safe or terminal, then type this command. No bobby pins or hacking needed.

PC

Kills the selected target

kill

With the console open, click the target, then type this command. The target dies instantly.

Killing quest characters can break quest progression.
PC

Kills everyone around you

killall

Every enemy and character nearby dies. For getting out of a tough raid.

Friendly characters and traders die too, which can permanently break their quests.
PC

Resurrects the selected dead character

resurrect

Brings back a quest character you killed by accident. Click the body with the console open, then type the command.

PC

Stops characters from detecting you

tdetect

Nobody can see or hear you. It makes stealth missions and stealing completely easy.

PC

Character commands

Category page →

Sets your character level

player.setlevel 50

The number at the end is the level you want. Careful, enemies in the wasteland also get stronger as your level goes up.

A high level makes enemies stronger too, so the game can suddenly get much harder if you are not ready.
PC

Increases carry weight

player.modav carryweight 10000

Being overencumbered stops being a problem. You no longer have to drop the junk you collect.

PC

Increases movement speed

player.setav speedmult 200

The number at the end is a speed multiplier, and 100 is normal. It makes getting around the map much faster.

The effect may reset when you change armor or enter a new area, so type the command again.
PC

Increases jump height

setgs fJumpHeightMin 200

The number at the end sets the jump height, and the default is about 90. At high values you can jump onto rooftops.

You take fall damage when you land from a height, so it makes sense to combine this with god mode.
PC

Opens the character appearance screen

showlooksmenu player 1

Edit your character from scratch, including face, hair and body. The way to change how you look in the middle of the game.

If you change your name on this screen, some voiced lines may no longer be able to say it.
PC

Item and caps commands

Category page →

Gives caps

player.additem 0000000f 10000

Adds as many caps to your inventory as the number at the end. The caps ID is fixed, so you can copy it as is.

PC

Gives bobby pins

player.additem 0000000a 100

Gives as many bobby pins as the number at the end. Handy if you want to get better at lockpicking.

PC

Looks up an item ID

help "fusion core" 0

Type the item's English name in quotation marks and the console lists the matches with their IDs. Use the ID you find in the add item command.

PC

Adds any item to your inventory

player.additem <id> 1

Replace the ID part with the ID you found with the search command. The number at the end is the quantity.

PC

World and camera commands

Category page →

Teleports you to any location

coc <location code>

Type the location's internal code name at the end of the command. The fastest way to get around the huge map.

PC

Turns on the free camera

tfc

The camera detaches from your character and you can fly it anywhere. Essential for anyone taking screenshots or recording video.

PC

Hides the HUD

tm

Every indicator on screen disappears. Used with the free camera for a clean scene.

The console becomes invisible too, so you will not see anything on screen when you type the command again. You have to type blind.
PC

Changes how fast time passes

set timescale to 1

The default value is 20. With 1, game time passes at the same speed as real time, while a higher number speeds up the day.

Common questions

On PC, press the ~ key in the top-left corner of the keyboard. The console opens and the game pauses. Type the command and press Enter, then press the same key again to close it.
Is the console available on PlayStation and Xbox?
No. Console commands only work in the PC version. There is no way to enter cheats on PlayStation and Xbox.
The console will not open. What should I do?
On non-US keyboard layouts the ~ key may be in a different place. Try temporarily switching your keyboard layout to US English.
How do I apply a command to a specific character?
With the console open, click that character or object on screen, and its ID number appears at the top of the console. The commands you type now apply to it.
What is the Fallout 4 money cheat?
The game's currency is caps. Type the fixed caps ID and the amount you want into the add item command, and the caps go straight into your inventory.
Which commands can break quests?
The kill all command also kills friendly characters and traders, which can permanently break quests. Commands that force a quest's state are risky too. Make a separate save before you experiment.
