Why doesnt the console work?
Hey
Tried to activate the console to go thru walls, lower gravity, etc but it seems not to work. I tried binding the console key to something else but nothing....Whats wrong?

You know, all your posts are blatantly screaming "I pirated portal". I don't mind people who pirate the game, but I certainly won't help them. There is no such thing as "editing hl2.exe properties" when you use the legit Steam version. Anyway, yes, you have to run the game with a special argument, like all Valve games.

I never pirated Portal. I think it is a great game and the orange box is a value. Please do not put words in my mouth. Thank you.

In the keyboard settings is a button called "advanced" / "extended" or something like this (in my german version "Fortgeschritten"). There you have to activate it, before you can use it.

Alright riahc3, I could help you, but first I need to know your keyboard type. If it's the American type press the ` key (beside the 1 key). If it's German, hit "ö" to bring up the console

GLaDOS: WELL, I did NOT say it won't ever REALLY stab you, in fact, it is perfectly capable of doing so!
