Compatibility notes
Which releases these codes apply to, and where one behaves differently. Each note links to the source that documents it.
- Community Patch 1.7x The Gothic Wiki says the ge3.ini edit is not needed on the Community Patch: you open the character stats and skills screen with C and type marvin there to switch the console on. Gothic Wiki: Cheat codes in Gothic 3
- Unpatched, ge3.ini edit The Gothic Wiki says to back up ge3.ini before changing TestMode=false to TestMode=true. On a default Steam install the file is in steamapps\common\Gothic 3\ini. Gothic Wiki: Cheat codes in Gothic 3
- Community Patch 1.75 A Steam Community thread reports that on 1.75 the give command for gold says the gold was added but none arrives, and suggests spawn It_Gold_Stack_03 instead. The same thread says teach LP sets your learning-point total rather than adding to it. Steam Community: How to use cheats in 1.75 version? (Gothic 3)
