Access Console

So, i just downloaded BG1EE and BG2EE onto my new computer, and for the life of me i cannot find the baldur.ini file to edit in order to unlock the console. I have "Show Hidden Files" on, and i've looked in my Documents folder where it stores the saves, yet the only text file there, is Baldur.lua. I've inserted "'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1'," into Baldur.lua, yet the console still doesn't work. I'm on Windows 10.

    Baldur.lua is the correct file. Quit the game, then add these two lines to that file (I'm not certain that both are needed, maybe someone else has insight on this):

    SetPrivateProfileString('Program Options','Debug','1')
    SetPrivateProfileString('Program Options','Debug Mode','1')

    Save the file. Reopen the game.

    The Debug Mode one should be enough I think. I don't have the Debug line added and my console works.

    Is your computer set to some other language than English? If I recall, there is an issue because the Ctl-Space key combination is mapped to another function like bringing up the language switcher.

    Yep, that worked. Thanks.
