I'm having problems with CluaConsole in BG2: EE

Jeivar

Following online instructions I open my baldur.lua file and add the following line:

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

I then save and close the program, and open the game. But when I hit Ctrl+Space the game just freezes and shuts down.

What am I doing wrong here?

EDIT: I am playing in Steam, if that makes a difference.

try adding this specific line in instead:

'Program Options', 'Debug Mode', '1',

keep all those gaps/commas/quotations and see if that helps

Er, I tried that but things are just getting weirder. The game doesn't freeze after I paste that into the lua file, but it doesn't bring up the console either. And when I open the file again the line isn't there, even though I save it before exiting. I've tried this multiple times now.

Huh. Nevermind. It suddenly works when I do the original thing for the umpteenth time.

that line of code is probably space and comma sensitive and you probably also have to make sure it's in the other "Program Options" lines as well
