Getting console to show

[CorporalJigsore]

I have a scandinavian keyboard layout identical to the following:

And I'm having a problem with getting the console to pop up, anyone else has found a solution to this problem? Just needing it at the moment to auto_win some important battles that have become CTD-infested in some of my saves..

See the frequent issues about this problem, the workaround should help you: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showt...ng-around-them

Change the key used to open the console using Africanus' workaround

* Go to the <RTW>/data/text folder. (<RTW> means the folder you installed Rome Total War and EB in)
* Use a standard text editor (like Notepad/Word etc.) to open "descr_shortcuts.txt"
* Scroll down or search for "misc." (at the start of the line)
* There should be a line with "show_console" here, and it says "hidden" behind it. Remove "hidden" and save the file.
* If and only if you are using BI, you need to also repeat the above sequence with <RTW>/bi/data/text/descr_shortcuts.txt
* Start EB, go to controls > misc and press reset to default
* There should now be a line "show debug console" . Set to whatever key you want (cannot use any key already assigned to another function though).
