Place Newly Purchased Units Anywhere On The Board
1. Select a unit.
2. Click the “Buy” button.
3. Before placing the unit, save the game (i.e. press the save key). This exposes a bug in the game which allows you to place the unit wherever you want.
Each USER PROFILE has eight save slots associated with it for use throughout the entire game. There are a limited number of saves allowed per episode, dependent on the episode’s difficulty level – 8 saves are allowed on TRAINING, 4 on REALISTIC and just 2 saves on DIRECTOR’S CUT.
There are also some new console commands related to this feature: “QUICKSAVE”/”QUICKLOAD” which always save/load to/from the first save slot. “SAVE #”/”LOAD #” (# is a number from 1-8) which save/load to/from slot number #. “SAVESLEFT” displays how many saves the player has remaining in the current level at the current difficulty. This number is also displayed any time a game is saved or loaded.
As with all other console commands, these may be bound to keys of the players’ choosing for ease of use (e.g. “BIND F6 QUICKSAVE”) will save the current game to the first save slot every time it is pressed until no more saves are allowed.
Normal Console Commands and Variables
The following CONSOLE VARIABLES are made available (replace the # sign with a number), in-game help is available by typing the “LISTVAR” command at the console:
MOTIONTRACKERVOLUME
This is set at its maximum of 1.0 by default, the volume of the tracker can be reduced by changing this number (e.g. to 0.75 or 0.5).
CROUCHMODE
This command allows players to change the Aliens crouch/crawl to a toggle on/off key by typing “CROUCHMODE 1″ at the console.
CROUCHMODE 0
Changes back to the default setting.
Debugging Console Commands and Variables
Advanced users may now access some of the game’s internal debugging commands (which include features such as immortality) by running the game with the command line option “-debug” (e.g. “AVP.exe -debug”).
In this mode Multiplayer is not available, levels will not be flagged as completed, and no new official cheat modes will become available. This basically means that players can examine a level to which they already have access with invulnerability, infinite weapons, etc. but can’t open up any new game levels or features.
The following CONSOLE COMMANDS are made available by this option, in-game help is available by typing in “LISTCMD” at the console:
GOD
Makes the player immortal: player will still take damage, but will not die when they reach zero health.
GIVEALLWEAPONS
Self-explanatory.
SHOWFPS
Displays the current frame-rate per second on-screen.
SHOWPOLYCOUNT
Displays the number of rendered polygons per frame on-screen.
LIGHT
Creates a light source near the player. Repeated use makes a brighter and brighter light.
Bot console commands:
ALIENBOT
Creates an Alien in front of the player.
MARINEBOT #
Creates a Marine (or civilian) of type #.
PREDOBOT #
Creates a Predator of type #.
PREDALIENBOT
Creates a Predator-Alien.
PRAETORIANBOT
Creates a Praetorian Alien.
XENOBORG
Creates a Xenoborg.
Note: creating bots may cause crashes and unexpected game behaviour. For a bot to be created its model must exist in the current level; however, the models may be forced to be loaded through a command line option. Add “-l” followed by a list of letters corresponding to the characters you want to load:
‘a’
Alien
‘m’
Marine
‘p’
Predator
‘c’
Civilian
‘x’
Xenoborg
‘t’
Praetorian
‘r’
Predator-Alien
Note that all the letters must be in lower case, and that “-l” on its own will still cause the Alien to be loaded.
The following CONSOLE VARIABLES are made available (replace the # sign with a number), in-game help is available by typing the “LISTVAR” command at the console:
MOTIONTRACKERSPEED
Allows the player to speed up/slow down the pulse rate of the Marine’s motion tracker (range from 0-16, default is 1)
TIMESCALE #
Change the rate at which time flows in the game, e.g. “TIMESCALE 0.5″ will make time pass at half the normal speed. For those interested, the “JohnWooMode” cheat uses this effect dynamically, so that time passes slower the more action is happening on screen.
WIREFRAMEMODE #
Display the environment and/or characters using wireframe graphics.
DOPPLERSHIFT #
Enable/disable the Doppler shifting on the Alien player’s sounds.
SKY_RED #
