KOTOR 1 Cheats: Console Commands (PC) — Use at Own Risk

Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic (KOTOR 1) on PC has a hidden developer console for cheats. Using them can break quests, corrupt saves, and ruin the narrative experience. Backup saves first.

Enabling the Console

Edit swkotor.ini in game folder (or %UserProfile%\Documents\Star Wars KotOR\):
Under [Game Options], add: EnableCheats=1
Save. Launch game.
In-game: Press ~ (Tilde / Grave) to open console.

Better Than Cheating: Mods & Tools

KOTOR Tool / K-GFF / ERFEdit: Edit game files directly (items, stats, scripts) — more precise, less crash-prone.
K1R (KOTOR 1 Restoration): Restores cut content (droid planet, extra quests). Essential mod.
RCM (Random Character Modifier): Randomizes classes/feats/items for replayability.
Widescreen / UI / Texture Mods: Modernize visuals.

Playthrough Advice: First run: Zero cheats. The story, twist, and struggle are the game. Cheats after for experimentation.
