Console trouble

[Rider]

Well, short and sweet, my console won't pop-up. I've no other keys bound to the ~ key but when I press it nothing happens. I have also checked for the -console in the shortcut, but it was there.

What could be wrong?

When you start up half-life do you see 'console' above 'New Game'? If so click on it and when it comes down type 'sv_cheats 1'. It worked for me when mine wasn't working.

Ok... I've tried it... but everytime I choose a class the console drops back down and I have to reselect the team and class.

Any other suggestions?

That happens whenever you try to play ESF in singleplayer mode, because ESF wasn't made to work in singleplayer mode.
This method is a little longer than the -console command in the link target, but I've never found a situation yet in which it didn't work.
In your ESF directory (should be something like C:\Sierra\Half-Life\esf), there is a file called config.cfg. Open it with notepad. This file is run by ESF each time you start a game, and sets all your key binds.
Somewhere in the file (doesn't really matter where) insert the following lines:
bind "~" "toggleconsole"
bind "`" "toggleconsole"
Save the file, and now the ~ key should bring the console down! ^.^

Singlemode???????!!!!

stop spamming ... there won't be a single mode in ESF

to DragonDudes post (a good one :yes: ):
be sure that there's an entry called
console "1"
I think it should work then

be sure that there's an entry called
console "1"

ive never heard of such a thing..

ot: right click the esf icon, go to properties and simply add -console to the target line. then when youre ingame, toggle ~ to use the console

well the binding the console thing helped. Thanks alot!

Now there's one other small issue (related though)

I've been trying to change models in ESF like this

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Console ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Model S4Goku
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

where S4Goku is a model I added myself. I was hoping you could change models that way to use random models without overwriting existing ones.

Now the method above doesn't work. So am I using the wrong command or is this function Disabled in ESF?

feedback is welcome
