SetConsoleOutputFile

Recommended Posts

In the Fallout games, I would use the console command SetConsoleOutputFile (scof) to dump output to a file. This was a handy way to, amonst other things, save all the actor values at a moment in time. I just tried doing exactly that in SkyRim. According to http://mod.gib.me/skyrim/functions.html, the scof command exists and the Skyrim console reports that output has been redirected but it never seems to write the file. Am I missing something or does Skyrim just not support this command any more?

For anyone coming across this thread while looking for how to output to console in skyrim SE, you can use this mod: https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/28210

Basically, among other things, it allows you to write the console's output to a file by writing after a command: " > filename". So, a space, the character ">" and another space, followed by the name of the file to write to. You might want to wrap the file's name between double-quotes (it's required if it contains spaces).
Example:
