Dragon Age: Origins Cheat Codes
Please note: The use of cheat codes for Dragon Age: Origins requires the use of a command line parameter, and editing of a game file. As such, it is highly recommended that you first make a backup of any files before you edit them.
Make a Shortcut on Your desktop
The first thing you need to do is to make a shortcut to the game's main daorigins.exe file (Dragon Age/bin_ship/daorigins.exe) and add the command line parameter -enabledeveloperconsole. More information on adding command line parameters can be found here.
Edit File: keybindings.ini
Now navigate to the keybindings.ini file (My Documents/BioWare/Dragon Age/ Settings/) and make the following changes. More information on editing PC game files can be found here.
Find the line:
"OpenConsole_0=Keyboard::Button_X"
Change the X to Another button, like so:
"OpenConsole_0=Keyboard::Button_Q"
Save the file and begin the game with the shortcut you created earlier. While in game press the key that you assigned in the .ini file, in our example it was the Q button, then enter in one of the following codes.
Additional notes: This has been tested on the retail version of the game, not the Steam version (if you have more details send them over and we'll note it here). Also, you may not see the cheat console or what you are typing... this is normal, continue entering the code and they should work as described.
