This page details the steps necessary to hex-edit your Borderlands 2/TPS game to allow mods, and enable the console so that you can actually execute them.The Modern Methodis the latest community tool to manage mods and enable these features. For 99% of people, BLCMM will do just about everything detailed on this page, and it's all you need to install in order to start using BL2/TPS mods.
You'll want to be using BLCMM to manage your mods anyway, so we would highly recommend just using that. If you don't want to use BLCMM, or install Java, though, this page should detail the steps needed to do this all by hand.When BLCMM starts for the first time, it will give you a window with the option to hex-edit your game executable (which will allow mods to be run), and set a hotkey with which to open the console (so that you can actually execute the patches).
Once BLCMM is running, that screen will be avialable again with even more options, at Tools - Setup game files for mods.

If you've discovered a cheat you'd like to add to the page, or have a correction, please.Easy Loot (General Knoxx) You'll need the General Knoxx DLC to accomplish this. Near the start of a new game, find the Fast Travel Station and select T-Bone Junction as your destination.
Here, you can find valuable loot, weapons, and funds. You can visit, collect everything of value, then exit and repeat. The only problem is that the enemies in the area are virtually impossible to kill at low levels, so you'll want to avoid their spawn points. To do that, stick the safe route indicated below. LoadingFirst, exit the starting building and head left, continuing past the bulletin board and then hopping onto some boxes that will allow you to reach an ammo crate. From there, run and leap to the rooftop that is now positioned behind you and open the silver chest and lockers in a fenced area.
Exit the cul-de-sac and make your way to the building located diagonally from the one where you started. Here, you can save.
You should find more loot behind the building, some stairs to descend, and a catwalk to cross. Gather whatever you like and then leave.Submitted by: xpusher32 Easy 'What a party!' Achievement/Trophy This can be incredibly stressful if you don't know how to directly go about it. There may be other strategies, but the easiest that I came across is to fight MINAC and when he appears, hide behind the rocks near the van.Behind the van is a save point and a shed. Standing in the shed facing out, turn immediately right. You will notice a silver crate with weapons inside it, and next to this, there are two rocks with a thin passage in between. MINAC will come near you and start to shoot, though just destroy the one and only turret he attacks you with.
Afterward, you can sit there and MINAC will not shoot at you, nor can its robots reach you.Come back a few hours later and collect the many parts strewn about the area. Run out and collect what you can, then rehide if you must. You only need three panties, five fish in a bag, and 15 pizzas to unlock this achievement/trophy.Submitted by: manoahmaelstrom Easy 'Destroyed the Destroyer' Achievement/Trophy An easy way to defeat the Destroyer on the second playthrough is to obtain the level 48 MIRV explosives and toss them into the Destroyer's mouth. The grenades continuously explode, and once they finally relinquish, the Destroyer will only have half of a life bar. After that, it's smooth sailing using a Double Anarchy weapon or any other strong weapon or Class Mod.Submitted by: manoahmaelstrom Sucker Born Every Minute Achievement/Trophy The description for the Sucker Born Every Minute Achievement/Trophy says 'Paid for a worthless tour of the world's largest bullet.' Go go the huge bullet and there should be a building closest to the bullet.
There will be arrows pointing to a box with a $ sign on it. Simply activate the prompt here to get the Achievement/Trophy. Rider Sniper Rifle In New Haven there there are two hidden chests.When you recieve the quest to enter Trash Coast, head to New Haven. Head toward the blue shack (below the area where the repair kit is). Stand near the door and it will open.
Dark souls hud png wallpaper. Ride the elevator down and to the basement. Defeat the Psychos and open the red chest to find the Rider.
Rider is a unique sniper rifle manufactured by Gearbox, the maker of Borderlands. This weapon, along with other details in the room (a trash pile Christmas tree and a grisly leg lamp) are references to the movie 'A Christmas Story.' Faster Firing Rate Weapons with exceedingly slow firing rates (i.e. Powerful sniper rifles) can be made less laggy if you melee after each shot. This will reset the firing rate timer, allowing you to instantly fire again. Elemental Effects In Borderlands some weapons have an elemental effect. These are usually very useful but there are drawbacks.
Enemies might have special resistant shields or an elemental animal will naturally resist what you shoot it with. Here is a rundown of each elemental effect:Fire - When you tag an enemy with fire they take gradual damage until they die or it goes out. Fire damages enemies more if they're shield is gone. Additionally, enemies tend to freak out and lose accuracy when burning.Shock - Shock damage is like the reverse of fire.
It deals an incredible amount of damage to an enemy's shield but loses effectiveness once they're down to their health meter. Also, enemies don't usually panic when shocked.Acid - Possibly the best all-around element. Acid damage easily eats through armored opponents (like Spiderants and Crimson Lance soldiers) and can spread to multiple enemies if they happen to touch each other while panicking. The only drawbacks to it are that Acid-type enemies are about 90% immune to it and if you try Iron-sight aiming the acid splash from your gun-muzzle can throw off your aim.Explosive - Not so much an element as a bonus. Randomly when you shoot an enemy with a bullet from an explosion-type gun it will explode and deal extra damage relative to the weapon's base damage. Try to aim for groups.Eridian - Whenever you find an Eridian weapon try shooting an enemy.
Sometimes extra effects not mentioned in the description will occur. The 10101 Cannon is a good example of a Shock/Explosion combination element. Quick Money and Items Want purple and orange items without having to kill a single enemy? Once you get to 'New Haven,' head to the save/transport post near 'Scooter' and save your game.
Then, there are 2 red chests and 3 silver chest in town.4 of them on rooftops, and one that the claptrap rescue opens for you. Just loot them all, keep what you want, sell what you don't want and then save your game. Log off, then log back in to repeat the process. Check all the vending machines each time as they will offer great items as well.Here is a rundown of the loot route from at the save/transport post near Scooter:Red Chest #1 - On the roof of the building directly right of the save post. Go to the side with the yellow barrel, jump few times and you are there.Silver Chest #1 - From the save post, turn directly left and go up the stairs, keep going in the same direction, cross the wood plank and then jump the railing to the other building. Turn a slight right around the corner.Red Chest #2 - from Silver Chest#1.some tricky jumps, but not too hard. Simply look out to the red tarp hanging over a little platform and make a running jump to land on the tarp.
Then turn around till you see the Red Chest, make another jump (not too high or you will get caught on the red tarp over the chest and fall off).Silver Chest #2 - After completing the Claptrap Rescue this Silver Chest will be in a little shed across the courtyard from the Bounty Board (you just have to crouch to get in there).Silver Chest #3 - From the save post go forward and go up the stairs where the dollar sign and arrow are. Hop on top of the washing machine, then on top of the roof with the big antenna. The Silver Chest is behind it. More Inventory Slots Note: Alter game files at your own risk and always make backups!

New Game + Complete the game to unlock a New Game + mode. Some items and stats will carry over into the new game and enemies will be tougher. Duplicate Items To make a copy of any item you'll need a cooperative partner in a multiplayer game. Simply drop what you want to make a copy of on the floor, exit the game without saving, leaving your friend free to grab it.

Item Storage using an Alternate Character An effective, but annoying, way to store your extra stuff is to create an alternate character that is only for holding your extra stuff. Just create a new character, load a co-op game with both your main character and your new level 1 character and give them the items you want to put up. Log back in to your level 1 character and give the items back to your main character when you need them. This can be really useful when you find weapons and items that are above your level, or are saving them to give to a friend's character. Pull out couch bed.

I looked at the unrealscript and these appear to be the only useful ones. There are many console commands but most are basic input, debug commands (most of which don't appear to work), and stubbed out functions.I did find a few more that might be interesting though:Camera 3rdShowRotationPauseDayCycleChange player class in-game (C&P works):playerselectclass GDSoldier.Character.CharClassSoldierplayerselectclass GDAssassin.Character.CharClassAssassinplayerselectclass GDSiren.Character.CharClassSirenplayerselectclass GDMercenary.Character.CharClassMercenary.

If you've discovered a cheat you'd like to add to the page, or have a correction, please.Minecraft Area Play until you reach the area. In the Minecart Madness side quest, turn right from where you find the mine cart. You should spot a stone shaped like a cube. Jump over it and land on some earth, then proceed right from there to find dirt that looks like something you might find in Minecraft. Attack it a few times and you should be able to push through, provided it is 2 blocks high.
If you turn right from there, you should see some stone and coal. Those take 5 hits to break, and if you pass through them you will find some.Submitted by: killkillkillomg Full Metal Jacket There are multiple references to the movie Full Metal Jacket spread around the game. One of the rifle is called 'This is My Rifle,' which is part of a familiar line from the movie. Also, the reanimation station will say 'You will not die unless you are told' after reviving you, which is a reference to an R. Army learning management system link. Lee Emery quote in the film.Submitted by: ohlove Minecraft Easter Egg In Caustic Caverns, around the Guardian Ruins near the end of the map, there are 'dirt blocks' (from Minecraft) around a cavern to the right and under the minecart used for '.' After performing melee attacks on the blocks, one will encounter several creepers and a, which are also from Minecraft.
Those have a chance of dropping the ' sniper rifle, which just so happens to shoot arrows like the ones seen in Minecraft.Easy Leveling (You Are Cordially Invited) The first optional mission is titled 'You Are Cordially Invited' and your apparent goal is to lure a thug named Flamestick to a party where he will meet his demise. However, you can easily gain experience points by repeatedly failing the mission. Play through the mission as instructed until you are supposed to bring Flamestick to the table that Tina will have prepared. Instead of bringing him to that destination, kill him for the experience points (his death results in around 5000XP if you are at level 35 and playing on mode. Killing Flamestick will result in a failed mission, but then you can retry the mission as often as you like for more easy XP. The trick works even better if you load a second character and have them stand near Tina, constantly respawning Flamestick.Submitted by: Nebbun522 Easy Money, and XP If you have a or character (the latter works best), you can level up your character at the end of the campaign so that you're prepared for tougher battles in the True Vault Hunter mode. Once you defeat the main campaign's boss, stay in that chamber and use your turrets to take out the enemies that regularly spawn.
If you are using a mechromancer and your skill is maxed by that point, your DT duration increases after each kill. You can leave your console on and let your automatically take out the enemies while you tend to other things. Otherwise, you'll need to take a more hands-on approach. This is a great way to farm experience, money, and eridium with minimal effort.Submitted by: AbstractSquid Extra Backpack Storage You can carry more gear in your backpack than you might think, though this trick is mostly just useful early in the game. First, find a vendor and sell the items in your backpack to make room for more items.
Now grab any items lying around, or purchase the vendor's wares. Once your backpack is full, you should next buy the items that you just sold, thus temporarily expanding your backpack's storage capacity beyond the usual limit.Submitted by: C-Schoe Complete the standard Story mode and you'll unlock True Vault Hunter mode.

Choose the weapon you wish to reload, then switch it out for another weapon from your inventory, then switch the weapons yet again.
The desired weapon now has a full clip, assuming you had the ammo for that, and you can exit the menu and get back to the action without waiting to reload. Note that this technique will not work if your character is in 'fight for your life' mode.Submitted by: FreeLancexX Extra Enemy If you have played this optional side mission, you may have figured out that it parodies.

This was originally over on the old forums. I’m porting it over here so we don’t lose it.Here’s how to enable the console on the PC version of the game and some console commands that you can use:To enable the command console window in the game, you will need to edit the DefaultInput.ini file used by the game. Run the game at least once, create a character in the game, exit and save your game, then exit the game from the main menu. Open Windows Explorer and browse to the “C:Program Files (x86)SteamsteamappscommonBorderlands 2WillowGameConfig” folder. In that folder you will see a “DefaultInput.ini” file, open that file in a text editor (like Notepad). Find the “Engine.Console” section and add the following line right after it:ConsoleKey=TildeThis will use the Tilde ‘’ key (the key above the Tab key and to the left of the 1 key on QWERTY keyboards) to pull down the console window so that you can enter console commands.You might also want to enable the “single line console command window” (useful when turning off the HUD and taking screenshots). Do this by adding following line (just below the “ConsoleKey=” line):TypeKey=BackslashThis will use the backslash key ‘’ (the key between the Enter key and the Backspace key on QWERTY keyboards) for the single line console window.
Ok, after some research I found that the amount of damage is visible only if a particular skill is active, and only some characters have these special skills.For example, Overkill damage is visible only if Salvador’s “No Kill Like Overkill” skill has been activated.Destroyer Damage instead, is only visible if Krieg’s “Bloodsplosion” skill has been activated.Unfortunately, Zero does not seem to have any ability that show the amount of damage. And I do not know if the other three characters have such skills.
