In Sons of the Forest, cheats and codes allow you to significantly simplify the gameplay and avoid the most monotonous and tedious mechanics like collecting materials and finding food. You can also resurrect companions, create ammo, make the main character immortal, and do a lot of other fun things.
In this guide, we will tell you how to open the developer console in the game, point out the most important console commands, and provide a list of all game items, creatures and objects so that you can spawn them at any time.
How to open the console in Sons of the Forest
If you are a server administrator, then you can use the codes without any restrictions by simply pressing the "Enter" key and starting to enter commands. The rest will have to use a couple of modifications to activate the console and gain access to cheats. We'll look at two possible ways below.
How to enable console via BepInExPack
First of all, you will need to download the program BepInExPack IL2CPP, which is necessary for mods to work in games created on the basis of the Unity engine. After downloading the archive via manual download (Manual Download), unzip its contents to any place convenient for you, and then transfer the contents of the folder BepInExPack to the game folder.
If you are using the Steam version, you will find it in the following directory:[папка, где установлен Steam] \steamapps\common\Sons Of The Forest. Agree to replace the files when the appropriate window appears.
Now start the game and wait for the scripts to load (this may take 1-2 minutes). This must be done so that the plugins folder appears in the BepinEx folder, where you will need to drop the mods.
Next you need to download the mod DebugConsole, which actually allows you to access the command line in the game. After downloading the archive, unzip it to any place convenient for you, and then transfer the Slinky_SOF_DebugConsole.dll file to the following directory:[папка, где установлен Steam] \steamapps\common\Sons Of The Forest\BepInEx\plugins.
After completing the steps, start the game, load any save (or start a new campaign), and then press the "F1" key. If you did everything correctly, the console should appear. Just enter the necessary commands into it and press the "Enter" key.
How to enable the console through WeMod
This method may seem longer, but it includes additional features. Plus, it can work for those who have problems with the previous method. So go to WeMod official portal and immediately click on the "Download" button in the upper right corner to download the program (registration on the site is optional).
Then run the downloaded app and wait for it to install. It will open automatically. Enter "Sons of the Forest" in the search box and select it to go to the game page.
Next, click on the inscription "Play" or "Playing" (if you have already launched the project). As a result, all the options available to you will appear on the game page in the application. Among them are: infinite health, immortality, invulnerability to fire, no fall damage, and so on. However, we are interested in the console, which can be seen at the bottom of the list: "Enable Debug Console". Press the "F10" key to activate this option.
Note: Do not use the "On" and "Off" sliders in the application, as they can only be used in the premium version of the program. Use keys instead.
Now enter the game and press the "F1" key to open the console. If it does not appear, then try switching to English or exiting to the main menu, and then returning again.
