Start the game by running the game from your RUN menu with: "C:\GameFolder\bshift.exe" -console
Now you can bring down the console command box at any time during the game with the ~ key (tilde). Now before loading a map or game, you must open your console and type "sv_cheats 1" (excluding ""). Alternatively you may place the command in your "C:\GameFolder\config.cfg" file with notepad, so it will be automatically set next time you open the game.
Use the following commands (excluding ""):
"god" - God Mode
"noclip" - NOCLIP Mode : Fly through walls
"impulse 101" - Gives all weapons
"sv_gravity x" - Adjusts Gravity where when X = 800 the game uses default gravity and when X = 0 there is no gravity.
"sv_accelerate x" - Adjusts air acceleration so you move more when you jump. Default = 10 but increase for more effective bunnyhopping :)
"skill x" - Adjusts skill in-game, 1 = Easiest, 3 = Hardest.
"chase_active [0 or 1]" - Toggle third person view
"map x" - Replace X with one of the following maps:

When you are transported to the alien world, find the round puddles and stand in them. In many encounters, you can save your butt by standing in them and fighting. They supply infinite health and when you are injured they will slowly raise your health, therefore, you will not take as much damage. (Note there is one encounter that will almost require you to do this unless you are an exelent player and/or you have full suit health) |
Submitted by DarkRealmsStart a new game, and when you enter the main room, go to the bathrooms. Look for a guard who is getting ready for work. Note where he is then quickly get your armor and helmet on and run to the nearest sink. The guard will start to approach your sink. When he is starting to get close, turn on the sink by pressing [Use] and move away so he can use it. While he washes, get directly behind him and start pressing [Use] about once every half second. He should be saying "Calhoun, I'm...", "Shouldn't you be on?", "Swing by later and...", etc. so he gets cut off every time. Soon, he will say"Ouch, Ooof, Arrgh, Ouch". Back away, the screen will turn black, and will say that you hurt or killed someone with a firearm, and will start over. What makes this interesting is that you have no gun when this happens.
Enable cheat mode, then use the entities code to get a list of the creatures in the location you are currently in. Usually, when you try to spawn a creature, you have to use the noclip code to levitate in the air and spawn the creature nowhere near any objects. If a part of a spawned creature is spawned within a wall, ceiling, or another creature, the game crashes. However, if you enable the developer 0 code, the game continues even if a spawned creature is stuck, but the creature has yellow dots around it. Also, bind the spawn commands to unused keyboard keys; for example bind X "impulse 76" or bind y "give monster_scientist". The impluse 76 code works everywhere, and the hostile grunts created with it are easy to place where you want them; as they appear in front of you, rather than above. Now, enable the noclip code and fly around pressing the bound keys. Watch as Barney's Aliens and Grunts battle it out while Scientists run around being slaughtered.
Start a new game and before the train stops moving, enable the impulse 101 code. While the guard is trying to open the locked door, press [F6] to do a quick save. Get a weapon (pistol or crowbar recommended) ready. When he opens the door, wait for him to open the door on the other side of the room. Once that is open, shoot his foot. He will say something similar to "What do you want on your tombstone?", etc. and begin to shoot you. He will kill you if you do not kill him first. If you kill him, you will not get into trouble (and continue playing normally afterwards). Press [Esc] and load the game that you quick saved. Do the same thing, and he will say something different. At times, he will not attack. Do not do this with any other guard -- when you shoot them you will be fired for mishandling a firearm (even if you use a crowbar).
Kill Dr. Rosenberg and keep playing
After he says "I just want to get out of here," shoot him in the head and kill him. The message "Employee assumed to have perished..." will appear and the screen will turn black. When the elevator stops, the screen will light up again, but the message will remain on the screen for a few seconds. Play as long as desired in the lab, but do not go back up the elevator or kill Simmons or Walter.
On the train (where you start) enable the noclip and impulse 101 codes. When the train drop you off at the little platform, look at the platform that you just passed. Fly over there, and if you get there soon enough pull out your crowbar. Hit him until he explodes.
Enable the /thirdperson code to change your screen into third person view. You will see the player as Gordon Freeman instead of Calhoun, Enable the /firstperson code to return to normal.
At the beginning, when you go to the Personal Facilities to get into your uniform, go to the restroom stalls. One will be locked. Enable the noclip code and go through the door. Look at the back of the door. One of the game's programmers will be pictured there. This occurs again after you and Dr. Rosenberg go down the elevator. At the room where you some out of the elevator, there will be a fallen vent. Once again, enable the noclip code to go through the vent. At the end of it, you will see the same picture.
Enable the impulse 101 code. Once you are in the main room, go to the bathrooms and open your locker. Take out a powerful weapon or a crowbar and crouch down and start beating (or shooting) the box. After beating the box with a crowbar over 50 times, or shooting it with a laser or some other powerful weapon, it will break open. There will be a little live alien in the box. You cannot do anything to it except look at it.
When you just get out of the tram and the guard is having trouble opening the door, turn around. Eventually, another tram will pass by with Gordon Freeman inside it, which is the start of Half-Life.
After you finally get in the locked door at the beginning, find the strips on the walls which will lead you to different areas such as the armory and personal facilities. Find the one which reads "Video Surveillance". Follow it to a security room which will have monitors. Go up to each one of the monitors and press "Use". One should show the shooting range, and another will show a female in a hazard suit pushing a cart. However, one of the monitors will show Freeman arriving at the Anomalous Materials lab. He will walk past another scientist who will say "Good morning Gordon".
Suicide scientist witness
In the main lobby, go to the scientist talking to the guard. After they finish talking, follow the scientist to the top of the main lobby. When he goes to the side of the rail, jump over it. He will look down and say "My God, what are you doing?". When he says this, you should say in your head, "Killing myself". You can refill on health by going back up there and getting some drinks from the venders.
Firstly, activate the console. Then, bring it up during gameplay and type in /thirdperson. You can now play Blue Shift in the third person. |
Submitted by TheBlackSnakeTo turn off the flashlight, pause the game and hit your flashlight key. |
Submitted by DarkRealmsWhere did Gordon come from?!
Firstly, activate the console, bring it up during gameplay and type in the third person command into the console. Notice something? Instead of playing as Barney the security guard in the third person, it's Gordon Freeman! |
