Cheats

[Auxilia]

Have to admit that Deadringer code is a little TOO useful http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-toff.gif

[RZST]

i use the .matteosartori. cheat to see the map, usually its when im looking for alliances and i need to marry my heirs, its too goddamn hard to look for the king of a factiong. i turn it off after im done naturally.

[MiniKiller]

i have to answer yes all the time but i only use the see all map cheat and keep it up my whole camapign. it may sound wierd but i like watchen what other factions do and they battles.

[Teutonic Knight]

same for me, I usually just use .matteosartori. on for my whole game. I mean, a Medieval ruler would have known what was going on in the rest of teh world right?>

[Beirut]

I use the .worksundays. cheat a lot to get stuff in one year. Mostly because I have no http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-furious3.gif time to play a really long game and I like to have more fun in the time I do have.

[RZST]

Quote[/b] ]I mean, a Medieval ruler would have known what was going on in the rest of teh world right?

not exactly, i mean im pretty sure there was no form of instant communication back then, sure they would know the entire map(the known map atleast) but they wouldn't be able to pinpoint the exact numbers of the enemy nor where they are exactly located :) nor would they know the whereabouts of kings and so forth :p

[Crazy Duke]

Well, I only used it once, just so see if they working, two years ago. And it's not interesting.
Even I don't use the cheat for all map, rather I send my bishops and emisaries to spread the word of my kingdom. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/cheers.gif

[el_slapper]

I just tried .conan. once. The rest I do without. MTW is a game that works well without cheating - wich is not true for other games. Victoria is a pain without the "neville cheat"(automatic success of diplomacy - useful when a war leads nowhere).

[PseRamesses]

Personally I never cheat but one might call it cheating when I start a new game instead of finishing the one at hand that is going bad? For me the challenge with strategy-games is beating the AI, perfecting my techniques and therefore I´ll be taking "the long way to Rome",

[kawligia]

What's the deadringer code?

I would only cheat to restore my game after one of many CTDs, but there don't seem to be any that help too much.

And now that I know about the reveal map code I will use it to tell my emmisarry where to go rather than move him about myself until I finally stumble across the king or an emmisary. That is just plain stupid.

[king steven]

[Zone]

I've never used a cheat - not because I think you're only cheating yourself but because I didn't realise the things existed until recently. I don't think I'll use them anyway, I prefer to have to beat the game on it's own grounds.

[Knight_Yellow]

I will use the see all map cheat.

its a pain in the ass when 2 allies go to war and you dont know whos the strongest.

Too many time the northumbrians get owned and im not alled with the mercicans.

[The_Emperor]

I don't use cheats.

I like to do it all under my own steam. While I understand the problems of intelligence gathering I like to counter this by mass-producing agents and using my navy...

So its not really neccessary, and the unknown factors make the game fun.

yeah but .matteoartori. you can't see the numbers in the nme armies though. And they would have had a general idea of the size of their enemies...

[The_678]

I only cheated back before the patch. Whenever my king was like 38 and had no sons I would use the .unfreeze. cheat so I don't have to start the game all over again. But since this cheat was only to counter a bug I didn't really consider it cheating.

[hoom]

.conan. is not a cheat.
Its just a completely unsupported option to play as the rebels.

I've never used any of the other .someword. commands.

I use .matteosartori. all the time. IMO opinion it enhances the epic feeling as you actually can see the empires in Europe develop and fall apart, witness wars, crusades, civil wars etc.

[biguth dickuth]

i never use cheats.
i use my ships (which i try to build in great numbers http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif ) and bishops or emissaries to spy on the others.
of course in the first decades you don't see much but after that, things get a lot better, so i don't really need the cheats.

besides, you CHEAT when you use cheats hehehe

[Lacker]

I've found that cheating in games makes them more entertaining in the short run, but I get sick of them faster since there's less reward. I REALLY like this game so I've only cheated once to see if they work and havn't since then. It's awfully tempting though... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wacko.gif

Adds to the realism (i.e. fog of war)

[Yoko Kono]

i find not seeing the map a great incentive to build spies, assasins, priests and emissaries, unit i otherwise would rarely build

[lancer63]

deadringer indiscriminately. Don't like to know what's magically happening all over the map. Thats what my agents are for. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif

[Obex]

How is playing under the .nuttermode. cheat? It supposedly makes the enemy more aggressive. Does this only apply towards me, or are they more aggressive in general? Do they maintain the semblance of tactical wisdom that the ai has now, or do they simply become more foolhardy? more aggressive smart enemies sounds appealing to me, but berserk foolishly aggressive enemies would screw things up.

Id like to hear from anyone with experience using this.

[Seven.the.Hun]

wow, i didnt know all that much of the cheats until now, i had tried florin thing before, and that was kinda like having god foot all your bills and such, and the production thing is like the growth spurt on steriods...i tried the rebel cheat once and played a few years just to check it out, but i didnt try to do an all out campaign thing that way, has anyone done well with that rebel thing??
i didnt even recall that there was a mapcheat, i'll have to try that one and see how it looks, i think it would be nice and more entertaining to see other faction moves on a year to year basis, little less time and resource consuming than making your own horde of agents and then try to keep most of them from getting whacked...

I have to say the finance system in MTW gets to me sometimes, hence my occasional use of deadringer. I've studied history for years and I can find no evidence of medieval rulers being totally CRIPPLED by a lack of money (as you tend to be when you go into the red in MTW). There was always a way of financing your castles and your armies - always someone willing to lend you the cash whether it was the Pope for some Crusade or other or some financier investing in a profitable enterprise - a king could always scrounge somewhere or other.

Speaking of which, can anyone tell me how the Papal Gift (1000 Florins) works? I'm playing the Italians, about 20 turns in and not a cent from Rome http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-no.gif

[kawligia]

There are always a few turns where I cannot build ALL the stuff I want but it doesn't last more than a few turns. And I'm never in the red. Maybe you're doing something wrong?

I think you may need to study more a quick search on Google "Medieval" and "Bankrupt" produced these links.

read this from Medieval Source Book (http://www.fordham.edu/halsall/basis/conte-joanofarc.html)

... but Joan of Arc, a mere child in years, ignorant, unlettered, a poor village girl unknown and without influence, found a great nation lying in chains, helpless and hopeless under an alien domination, its treasury bankrupt ...

and here from Feudalism and Medieval life (http://www.britainexpress.com/History/Feudalism_and_Medieval_life.htm)

A Vassal's Obligations. The vassal was required to attend the lord at his court, help administer justice, and contribute money if needed. He must answer a summons to battle, bringing an agreed upon number of fighting men. As well, he must feed and house the lord and his company when they travelled across his land.

This last obligation could be an onerous one. William the Conqueror travelled with a very large household, and if they extended their stay it could nearly bankrupt the lord hosting them. In a few days of Christmas feasting one year William and his retinue consumed 6,000 chickens, 1,000 rabbits, 90 boars, 50 peacocks, 200 geese, 10,000 eels, thousands of eggs and loaves of bread, and hundreds of casks of wine and cider.

I think money/resource management is a critical component of any Faction.

It all depends on how rich the Pope is at the time.

[neogerry]

I only use .unfreeze. sometimes

[Game Over!!!]

For those of you who use the cheat to reveal the whole map and your reason for doing this is to find the other faction's kings...just drop one of your emissaries onto one the other faction's emissaries. Then right click on your emissary and the scroll will tell you where the other king is located. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/idea.gif

Quote[/b] (kiwitt @ Feb. 19 2004,17:52)]I think money/resource management is a critical component of any Faction.
Yes I couldn't agree more but what I'm saying is, that medieval states could and did function SOMEHOW even with empty coffers.

Joan of Arc would have been a nobody without an army to lead - this must have been equipped and manned somehow. The same goes for old William and his greedy court http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-jester.gif it may well be that they did break the bank on every royal progress, but remember that he spent virtually his whole reign - as Duke and as King - at war with somebody - how could he do this with no money?

I'll add another one - during the years 1450 - 1509, only two kings died solvent Edward IV and Henry VII, but this didn't stop thirty years of dynastic warfare, by that time a very expensive business.

I supposed I'm going to answer my own questions above by conceding that money WAS a complex business and that it would have been nice to see this reflected in the game a little more...... http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

Who gave you that idea?

[Rocket_Boy]

I always use .matteosartori. , I don't find it gives me any major advantages since I can't view buildings and units in provinces that I should'nt be able to, but it does give me a better idea of the overall picture and makes games more interesting.

[Sjakihata]

Only "cheat" I've used is the one in Shogun to play as the Ikko-Ikki & ronins faction. IMO, it's not a cheat-cheat, just a cheat to maximize your gaming expeirience.

Or?

back then they knew with scouts right at the start which we dont get, they know who owns what and who is at war with who.

.matteosartori. is like our scouts very early.

[Sociopsychoactive]

I have occasionally used .viagra. but even then I limit myself, for example I used it when playing the italians, the first year, and then went on to take a dozen or so provinces and never used it again. Iron is such a rare resource that I find you need to either start with it or conquer a place with it very early, or you will never get it. Hence using Viagra.

I also tried Conan once, when I had built up as the Byzantines to control more than half the map, then hit conana because there were loads of rebels around.

Next thing I know, the Byzants, now under control of the AI, invade EVERYONE and conquer the entire map in less than ten years. I had been holding off deliberately, trying out some funky cannons and such, they just ramapged. Maybe if yu did it right away at the start it would be more fun...

[AqConsul]

I use all of them. Usually I just us them for fun, and not on every game. I just find it funny sometimes to have a fortress the second year of the game in Viking and have a million florins...I just find it funny. The only problem is: that you are just cheating yourself because one cannot use them online or in SP.

[katank]

never use things like dead ringer cheat as for many factions, the difficulty is in getting out of debt.

nor do I use map cheat. building a network of say bishops is far better.

even if it's an epic feel, you get more info than you should in seeing roughly the relative power of factions, etc.

so play the game like it is and on difficult level without cheats. it's more rewarding though at first it may result in a few defeats and cause you to http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/mecry.gif

[Satyr]

I hate using strategic agents I hate having them all over my map. I would much rather use .matteosartori. instead. Then all I need is 2 or 3 emmisaries for making treaties and stripping titles.

[TheSilverKnight]

I have now quit using cheats because it crashed my game every 50 years. I'm currently as the Aragonese, have a huge Mediterranean Empire, and in the year 1282. NO CTD's No Cheats http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

[JAG]

I dont use any cheats, dont see the point reaqlly the game works well without.

[VikingHorde]

I never ever cheat. Theres no fun or pride in a victory, if your cheating. Of course im a vet. so it easy for me to say that, not being a newbe.

[Steppe Merc]

Speaking of cheats, how the heck can you trun them off? I used the building one because I lost my grand mosque, and want to build a military academy. But I just wanted to use it on one turn. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-wall.gif

[katank]

try typing it again.

I think most if not all toggles.

also, they don't work after save and reload.

[Tricky Lady]

Yes, I believe you have to reload your game to undo the cheat. For instance, you type .unfreeze., you save, next turn you won't have an heir. I'm not sure about the building cheat, but some cheats always apply (i.e. deadringer, which is logical, as it gives you the million florins).

[ChaosLord]

I only use .matteosartori. and for two reasons. One, I like seeing how the various nations develop and who controls what, and to make alliances/request marriages. Its really hard to do either of those normally unless you have a huge trade empire. And the clicking on another emissarie bit only works if they have emisarries you can see. I'd be happy if you could just enable it to see who controls what, and show the location of kings/princesses.

Thats all thats really needed and those two things aren't really a cheat. I mean communication wasn't instant back then, but the location of kings/princesses and who controlled what would be well known wouldn't they? Hopefully R:TW will have a more extensive diplomacy system so this won't be a problem.

[Theredlemming]

I never use cheats because i didn't know they existed

Could somebody write down the cheats and what they do?

And how you activate them?

The(ever so ignorant)redlemming

[octavian]

here they are ( you little criminal) http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif

5.5 Cheat codes and command lines
These are included for reference; sometimes cheating is the best way to test out ideas if you are short of time. It can also be fun, not all cheats make your game easier.

Cheat codes must be entered exactly as they appear here - including the full stop before and after the code. You must enter them on the campaign map screen.

Cheat codes
.worksundays. = fast build mode. Must have all your build queues empty for this to work.
.badgerbunny. = all buildings and units are available. You can still only build the units relevant to your faction, even though you appear to have all types available.
.deadringer. = gives 1 million florins
.conan. = take control of the rebels
.matteosartori. = reveal the whole map
.viagra. = puts iron in all your provinces
.mefoundsomeau. = puts gold in all your provinces
.mefoundsomeag. = puts silver in all your provinces
.mefoundsomecu. = puts copper in all your provinces
.kidsmode. = makes the AI very easy
.nuttermode. = makes the AI aggressive
.unfreeze. = produces an heir for your faction. The heir will be born as you hit 'end turn'.

command lines for MTW
These are not exactly cheats; instead you add them to your MTW or VI shortcut. Right click on your shortcut, and then choose properties. In the target box you should see something like:
"F:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Medieval_TW.exe"
if you have plain MTW or
"F:\Program Files\Total War\Medieval - Total War\Medieval_TW.exe" -strictserver
if you have both MTW and VI. To add a shortcut you must leave one space after the " mark, then enter the command line. To use multiple command lines just leave a space between each one and remember to include the - at the start of each successive line. Choose to save your changes and exit the properties box. Then start the game with the shortcut.

-ian - debug mode, runs in a smaller screen, you can move the camera about more in the battle maps to get close up views, you can disable the AI or switch factions using the number keys. The A key allows you to put the game on auto run.

-loyalty:X - sets the auto tax to maintain X loyalty where X is the number you want. Always use more than 100 at the very minimum unless you want a lot of rebellions. I recommend 120 for a reliable income and reasonably reliable loyalty or 180 to maintain very high loyalty and rarely see a rebellion.

-strictserver - a multiplayer related command that is on by default for all VI installations. Just leave it alone.

-green_generals - for VI only. When a general dies his replacement won't be identical to him in stats, vices and virtues. Instead the new man will be slightly weaker.

edit, i forgot to give froggy the credit she deserves, thank you tricky lady for posting the link. http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/bigthumb.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/wave.gif

[Ellesthyan]

yep, I use .matteosartori. regularly. I like to see how all the other factions are doing and because I'm too lazy to spend time creating a hundred bishops and maintaining them. The game takes too damn long in it's stripped form; a little cheat is a small price to pay for a live outside the medieval world http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/tongue.gif

[gaelic cowboy]

Having played for a while I feel cheats tend to cause a CTD eventually don't ask me how but it has only happened to when say I did a cheat. Definately I think Badgerbunny unbalances the game as you can buil a fortress fully upgraded to demi cannon level I would be of the opinion that is bad when gunpowder is discovered you have nothing to build probally cause a crash or summit.

[Oaty]

I voted for if things get desparate as the only cheat I use one where I have to force my king to devirginize my queen, I think the king hates me for that, just look at them woman in the game.

[Somebody Else]

In any game, I only ever start to cheat once I feel I've finished with the game, and I want to try and squeeze the last bit of goodness out of it before I consign it to the shelf - find out hidden gimmicks or whatever. I do come back to them occasionally - hopefully having forgotten the cheats. Generally - I'm good enough to manage without cheating.

I don't in Medieval - there's no need in the standard game, and I've only just started with MedMod, so any difficulty I have now, I will learn to deal with, without having to resort to cheating. (Though I may reload an earlier save when things go totally pear-shaped)

[gaijinalways]

I don't use cheats for the simple reason I want to win the game on its terms. Now if you were asking about the use of cheesy tactics, that's another story. I enjoy killing the general in battle if he is brave enough to lead the rush (doesn't always work, just got routed in one battle (BYZ early,expert, maybe 1200 something) where the jedi-general wouldn't fall

I also enjoy baiting units, though the AI doesn't always follow them and sometimes traps them (my HA may never look up to me again)

[king steven]

it's only cheating IF you get caught.

no for me he is always there the next year i have VI unpatched

he shoudl be born the next turn but will mature in 15.

Reaaaaaaaaaaaally? I like the look of that one, may give it a try. Always did wonder why generals died.... to be replaced by someone the same. Why bother with death messages at all if you're going to do that?

[zelda12]

Having completed both MTW and the VI with almost every faction, and some of the unplayable ones, without cheats. As such I've been fiddling with the game to extend it's play time before rome comes out. And so It was that I found cheats.

"Hello everyone my name is Zelda... and I'm addicted to cheats."

http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-jester.gif http://www.totalwar.org/forum/non-cgi/emoticons/gc-jester.gif

He he only joking but I have been using cheats to experiment in the game such as getting 100,000 men with the Byzanites into Khazar before the golden horde arrives.

Put it this way when they came they came they saw they conquered the map within 60 years but it was great fun all the same. Pity my computer crashes whenever I try and fight the battle.

But I do find that in the long run the game get's boring with cheats.
