I've played SOF2 before but now i want to cheat. Only problem is that when i try to enable cheats it says that sv cheats is read only.

I'm running XP Pro
2.4 Ghz
1024 RAM
GeForce 3 Ti500

Cheat Codes
To activate the cheat menu, you will need to edit a file. To do this, open the MYCONFIG.CFG file (located in the \base\ folder in your Soldier of Fortune II directory) with a text editor. It is a very good idea to back up the file before monkeying with it. Add the following text to the file: seta sv_cheats "1". Then save the file and restart Soldier of Fortune II.

During the game, simultaneously press Shift and the tilde key (~) to open the console. Type setrandom sv_cheats 1 and then press Enter to enable cheats. Open the console and type the desired command to activate the cheat. Note: You must enable the cheats every time you switch levels.

Codes:

Command Effect
god Toggle god mode  
give all All weapons and ammo
give "item name" Spawn indicated item
give ammo Full ammunition for held weapons
give armor Set armor to full
give health Full health
noclip Toggles no-clipping mode
notarget Disable enemy AI
g_gravity 0-800 Change gravity (800 is default, 0 for flight)
g_speed "number" Change movement rate (320 is default, lower is slower)
cmdlist List console commands
kill Suicide
mapname Display current map name
dir maps List map directory
map "level name" Advance to indicated map



note: MYCONFIG.CFG is changed to sof2sp.cfg after 1.01

Theres a much easier way.  Just add:

+set setrandom sv_cheats 1

to the target line of your desktop shortcut (right click on the Single Player icon on your desktop then click on  properties). Make sure there is a space before the plus sign.

It should look something like this when done:

"C:\Program Files\Soldier of Fortune II - Double Helix\SoF2.exe" +set com_multilingual 2 +set sp_language 0 +set setrandom sv_cheats 1

This way, cheats are always atuomatically enabled and all you have to do is just type the code in the console.

Thanks but that's what i did.

The problem is that it says that sv_cheats is read only after i enter sv_cheats 1 in the console or setrandom sv_cheats 1



EDIT
okay got it! works fine now. I did the thing in the console and i tried
setrandom sv_cheats 1 or whatever instead when playing the game and it works fine.

Thanks!

EDIT

The variable 'raven 1' works too...it even gives you a map select menu,and you don't have to set sv_cheats to 1 at the beginning of every map...

I had the read only problem too. What i did after i loaded the game with the command line is use the map command to load the map you are on and then i could activate the cheats. Dunno why but it worked for me
