How do you get devmode on halo combat evolved for the PC?

Answer 1

If you mean the one when you press the "~" key or the "`" key (depending on your keyboard) in the top left and corner under escape and to the left of the "1" key, you're in luck. Simply create a new shortcut to the halo.exe file (Located, by default, in the halo folder), and open its properties. Next to the target, which reads (by default) "C:\Program files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe", add the following: -console -devmode

Do not forget to add a space between the end of the quotes and the console, and between the console and the devmode modifiers. It should look like this once you're done:

"C:\Program files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe" -console -devmode

To activate the console, press ~ and type commands. This will NOT work for multiplayer, unless you are playing over a LAN, so you have to run the game from a different shortcut without console or devmode in order to play online.

Some fun commands:

debug_camera_save

debug_camera_load

Hold the mouse wheel button and look around, press WASD to move around to wherever you want. R goes up and F goes down. Hold the mouse wheel down and roll it back to speed up, and roll forward to slow down.

cheat_teleport_to_Camera teleports your player to the current location and

camera_control 0 returns you to player mode.

Cheat_spawn_warthog creates a warthog

cheat_all_vehicles spawns all 7 vehicles (scorpion, ghost, rocket warthog, warthog, banshee, gun turret)

cheat_all_weapons spawns all weapons in a ring around you. DO NOT TOUCH THE FLAG OR ODDBALL or the game will glitch, and the "Blue team, flag returned!" sound will loop over and over until you reset the game.

cheat_all_powerups spawns all powerups (Health, Overshield, Camouflage) as well as one that bungie didn't include in the final game, which is Time Rift (which slows down time in the game). This is amusing when you shoot rockets or throw grenades, since they move slower.

cheat_active camouflage turns you invisible indefinetly

cheat_bottomless_clip gives you unlimited ammo and no overheat on plasma rifle

cheat_deathless_player is invincibility
