What happened to the command console?

[Hizuko]

You know, where you hit the "`" key and you can type in those cool commands in the demo. But why doesn't the key open it up in the full game? Thanks.

TAB or F10.

You can change it back to "`" if you want.

Open C:\Documents and Settings\*username*\My Documents\My Games\Unreal Tournament 3\UTGame\Config\UTInput.ini

Look for
[Engine.Console]
ConsoleKey=F10
TypeKey=Tab
MaxScrollbackSize=1024
HistoryBot=-1

Change it to ConsoleKey=Tilde

Bam! now it works like it should.

Thanks a lot!

Fixed it too - what's with all these changes, the console has always been the tilde key, it has never been a problem in previous games (with beginners constantly hitting that key or so) so why move it to an awkward F10 position? Good thing it can be changed in the .ini files.

The tilde key worked for me in the demo...

Because it gave UK:rs problem when typing in their emailadresses.
I "think" they have @ at the same key as Tilde.

Another problem occurs when using the US international keyboard layout. The tilde is used to create special characters (e.g. è). This means if I press tilde and then type 'exit', I'll end up with 'èxit'.

Also, all the other stuff (screenshot, scoreboard) is bound to a F-key; so F10 seems more logical.

F10 is a lot more logical.

That said, I immediately put set the console back to the tilde key the instant I found out how to do it.
