Enabling Cheat mode??????????

[Joe White]

I was checking on the internet for some codes for Half-Life. The codes tell
me to "enable cheat mode". Maybe I'm dumb but how do I enable cheat mode??

TIA

To Activate Cheat Codes

1. You must activate the console.
2. Run Half-Life.
3. Load up your saved game or start playing.
4. In the middle of the game, bring down the console and type in:
sv_cheats 1

After doing the above four steps, you have the following two choices in
cheats:

If you are going for the following cheats: god mode or noclip, then do
the following:
1. Do a quick save and then a quick load. If you don't have any keys
bound to the two, here are the commands:
bind F7 "load quick"
bind F6 "save quick"
2. After the quick load, you should be able to do god mode or noclip.

If you are going for any other cheats than above, like give or impulse
101, then do the following:
1. You need to pass one new loading point. You can't go back to a
loading point that you know of. It must be a new territory that
you haven't been through.

To Activate Console

To activate the console within Half-Life single player mode or
multiplayer mode, you must do one of the following:

1. Start Menu -> Run -> Type in: <x>:\<hl dir>\HL.exe -console
Where x = HDD and hl dir = Directory of Half-Life
2. Create a shortcut of HL.exe -> Right click -> Properties -> Shortcut
tab -> Target box -> Put in " -console" after HL.exe.
Example: C:\Sierra\Half-Life\HL.exe -console

Note: If you installed Half-Life into a directory where it has a space
in between, for an example: C:\Program Files\Half-Life\, then
your example is this: "C:\Program Files\Half-Life\HL.exe -console". See
that the -console goes inside the quotes, not outside.

3. If you have done one of the two above, and the console still does not
show up, and you have Half-Life v1.1.0.0 or higher, create
an autoexec.cfg (a blank text file if you don't have one already) and
insert this variable into the file: console 1

After activating the console, you can bring down the console by pressing
the '~' or '`' key. It is near the 1, Tab, and Esc keys.
