UFO: Aftermath - Cheats

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


Even if many fans don’t consider UFO: Aftermath a worthy successor of the franchise, some of us really liked the new features we saw implemented. The number of tactic possibilities has greatly increased from the last titles and the new gameplay has been welcomed by quite a few numbers of players. If you’re still having problems adjusting to the new wave of changes made, there are always some cheats or dastardly ways to improve the experience.

To enable UFO: Aftermath cheats find "config.cfg" file in the game install directory, open it with Notepad and add the following line:

KEY "cheats" BOOL TRUE

Note: In order to generate the config.cfg file, you must run and *save* settings with
the configuration tool. If not, this file won't exist.

Save the changes, start the game and enter the following UFO: Aftermath cheats in the console window (press [Shift]+[~] [Edit: depends on keyboard] to bring it up):

godmode - Will stop the squad dying by the looks of it, but they will still need sickbay to heal for a while when back at base it seems

quickvictory - Will instantly make you win the mission. However, don’t try it on missions like Area51 as you won't get any items or objects back which are needed for research. Similarly on a shot down UFO, you get no UFO hull so no research for UFO access.

quicklose - Similar to quick victory but you lose the mission.

destroyobj - Destroys objects under the cursor, like cars and other objects with red center circle and four arrow heads.

visibility - Shows the current visible area by your squad LOS.

hitpoints - How much health out of 100% can see enemy health too. Good when used with godmode so you can heal at the end with medic to try and reduce the number of people needing rest in the base at the end of it.

allplans - Shows the path on enemies like your squat paths , enemies are grey.

enemies - Shows all enemies in area.

heights - Shows terrain level/height flat or sloping.

ids - Shows squad position number 1-7 (ids 0-6 ) works on enemies too.

unitsashidden - Units become see through like ghosts.

quickabsolutevictory - Win mission with items recovered.

canparalyse - Removes all paralyzing effects on squad.

cancontrol - Removes all mind control effects on squad.

flare - Puts flare or light source around squad members ( need to check ).

scenemode - Cycles textures etc can get wire frame and no textures.

On global strategic view from space:
hireunit - adds a new member to your squad
allitems - now have all weapons
finishrd - complete current research
