My steps: 1. Open Console (~ key) 2. Type "Player.GetCrimeGold 267ea" (To check current Crime Gold in Whiterun, it read 0, as expected.) 3. Type "Player.SetCrimeGold 1 267ea" (To set the CrimeGold to 1 Gold in Whiterun.) 4. Type "Player.PayCrimeGold 0 0 267ea" (To Pay the CrimeGold, without Items being Confiscated nor needing to go to Jail, in Whiterun.) All aforementioned NPC where no longer hostile! Thank you for sharing this.
