#Introduction

The only allowed debug commands in runs are Stat FPS and displaying the FPS cap. Using any others will result in run denial.

You can add key bindings for tools normally only available for developers by editing the DefaultInput file in the game files. Some of these range from being fun to mess around with to being very useful for practice.

I have compiled several of them into this guide, but there are many more that you can use.

1. Open the file "/Outlast/OLGame/Config/DefaultInput.ini"

2. Add line under "keyboard and mouse" section (Important: doesn't work if you put it elsewhere) .Bindings=(Name="",Command="")

where on the name you enter the key and on command one of the available dev tools.

For example: .Bindings=(Name="F1",Command="Stat FPS")

3. Make sure you save the changes once your done, and restart the game.

#General Commands

Camera Freecam & Camera Default - Toggles freecam, allowing you to move the camera through walls. Fun to mess around with but not very practical

SCREENSHOT - Takes a screenshot. You can find the screenshots in documents/MyGames/Outlast/OLGame/Screenshots.

TILEDSHOT - Takes a high resolution screenshot, may lag your game for a moment. You can find the screenshots in documents/MyGames/Outlast/OLGame/Screenshots.

Gamma 10 - Increases the gamma by the amount set, in this case, 10

StreamMap <MapName> - Can be used to instantly load a level. Unloads current level, so this is only useful for trying jumps between levels, like from first chapter to the lab. Level names can be found using the stat LEVELS command, they are on the top with _persistent, for instance lab is lab_persistent.

set OLGame CurrentCheckpointName ( Checkpoint Name Here ) - Changes your current checkpoint to the one written

BugItGo [X] [Y] [Z] [Pitch] [Yaw] [Roll] - Teleports you to the X, Y, and Z coordinates you put. Pitch and Roll will always be 0 in this game as far as I'm aware, Yaw is where you're facing. You can see how to find these in the displayall section later in this guide

#Stat Commands

Stat FPS - Toggles an on screen FPS counter

Stat LEVELS - Shows level streaming data, list of currently active levels and displays their status through colour coding

#Show Commands

Show Collision - Toggles collision rendering. Shows collision models of all objects.

Showlog - Shows the log file in another window.

ShowDebug OLAI - Shows information about the player and AI characters, like currently played animation. Cannot be toggled off.

#Displayall Commands

Displayall allows you to display a certain variable on your screen. Most things with a variable can be displayed, but here are some of the practical ones.

displayall OLHero Location - Shows your X , Y , and Z coordinates on the screen

displayall OLHero currentrunspeed - Shows your current running speed

displayall OLHero avgvelocity - Shows your average velocity in X, Y, and Z coordinates

displayall OLHero health - Shows your current health

displayall OLHero rotation - Shows your current rotation. Shows where you're looking.

displayall OLGame CurrentCheckpointName - Shows the current checkpoint name on the screen

#Making a File for Executing Commands

you can also make a file to execute commands, which will let you remove and add commands to the file without having to close the game every time you want to try a new command

1. In 'OLGame\Config\DefaultInput.ini' assign 'exec commands.cfg' to a binding as shown below:

   .Bindings=(Name="F1",Command="exec commands.cfg")

2. In 'OLGame\Binaries' make a file named 'commands.cfg'

Now open the file in notepad and write in whatever commands you want to execute. When pressing the button you bound to the command every command in the file should be executed.

#Changing FPS Cap

Lastly, if you want to change the FPS Cap to 61.81, You must cap the fps by editing the file BaseEngine.ini in [Outlast Folder]\Engine\Config. In the file you must search for the line MaxSmoothedFrameRate=62 and change it to MaxSmoothedFrameRate=61.81.

#All "Usable" Commands

These are all the "Usable" commands, I say usable, because some of these will either fail to do something (presumably because Red Barrels removed it) or just crash the game. Mess around with these at your own risk. Some of these require you to put something after it, you're gonna have to figure that out. You'll also need to show the log with showlog to be able to see some of these

DO NOT use any of these that have "Mem" in them, as you have a very good chance of crashing your computer.
