DarkSamurai117 Posted September 2, 2017 Share Posted September 2, 2017 Hi I've been playing fallout 4 for months now without any problems but just the other day when I loaded up my game I tried to open the console command using the tilde key and the console doesn't show up (Its always worked before). I've tried every other key on my keyboard but it still doesn't show up. the only thing that I've changed recently is I've had to update F4SE but I dont see how that would of affected my keyboard or console commands. has anyone came across this issue before? any help would be great thanks.

saberthechampion Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 The only reason I know for the console not opening is having the game on survival difficulty. Other than that, I'm not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkSamurai117 Posted September 6, 2017 Author Share Posted September 6, 2017 Does anyone know if F4SE can affect your keyboard working or not? I've just noticed that my mouse and keyboard do not work on fallout 4, this might be the reason why I cant open the console. I use a Xbox controller for 95% of the game and only use keyboard for console. I've just recently updated F4SE so maybe this has affected the keyboard somehow? please help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maverikch Posted September 6, 2017 Share Posted September 6, 2017 (edited) some quick googling came up, that the key for console depends on your windows keyboard layout. Because i don't know how the special characters are set on UK, German, US, Swedish, etc. Keyboards, i can't tell which key its for sure. but mostly its just the left upper key next to "ENTER" / "Return" key. I personally got a QWERTZ Keyboard and my console key is ¨ also i found this add -console to the launch options... in your steam library, right click on fallout 4 and go to properties, and in one of the tabs, you can set launch options...found no reference that F4SE causes Keyboard Bindings to be disabled or changed.

I find this very strange but it obviously points to something wrong with F4SE. any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
