Oblivion Remastered Console Commands: Gold, Carry Weight

Oblivion Remastered console commands work only in the PC version of the game. Press the tilde key (~, under Esc) during play, type a command and press Enter. For gold, type player.additem F 1000. The game warns you that using commands disables achievements, and on that save they stay off.

Below are the commands that still work in the remaster, the ones that broke and what replaced them, the Remastered-only cheats such as ObvGodMode, item IDs for gold, lockpicks and armor, and how to keep your achievements safe.

Quick answer

• Open the console: press ~ in game (PC only). On other keyboard layouts it’s the key next to 1 and Esc.
• Gold: player.additem F 1000 adds 1,000 gold.
• Carry weight: player.forceav encumbrance -5000.
• God mode: tgm. ObvGodMode is the remaster’s bigger version: maxed stats, every spell and a million gold.
• Noclip: ghost, then walk to turn it off. The old tcl doesn’t work.
• Achievements: any command disables them on the current save. Make a separate save first.
• PS5 and Xbox: there is no console, so these commands can’t be used there.

How to open the console in Oblivion Remastered

1. Load a save. Make a copy first, or start a new save just for cheating (see the achievements section below).
2. Press ~ (tilde). The Unofficial Elder Scrolls Pages (UESP) note that the key depends on your keyboard layout: it can be `, ^, § or ², always next to 1 and Esc.
3. Type a command and press Enter. Commands aren’t case-sensitive, so TGM and tgm do the same thing.
4. Press ~ again to close the console.

The remaster’s console is the Unreal Engine 5 console with support for the original game’s commands bolted on, according to UESP. Two consequences matter in practice. The old commands still work but don’t show up as suggestions while you type. And unlike the 2006 original, opening the console doesn’t pause the game. Kotaku adds a quirk: pressing Enter can also use whatever item your cursor is over in the menu behind the console, so close menus before you type.

If an old command is misread, UESP suggests putting obvConsole and a space in front of it, for example obvConsole tgm.

Oblivion Remastered console commands list

Every command in this table appears in at least two of the lists we checked (UESP, PC Gamer, GamesRadar+, Kotaku and PCGamesN). Targeted commands work on whatever you click while the console is open. Put player. in front to use them on yourself.

Command	What it does	Notes
player.additem F 1000	Adds 1,000 gold	Use any amount
player.additem ID 1	Adds an item by ID; the last number is the quantity	IDs in the tables below
player.forceav encumbrance -5000	Huge carry weight	See the carry weight section
tgm	God mode on/off	No damage, unlimited magicka and ammo, no carry limit
ObvGodMode	God mode plus maxed attributes and skills and every spell	Remaster only; Kotaku and PCGamesN say it also adds 1 million gold
ghost / walk	Fly through walls / back to normal	Replaces tcl
ToggleDebugCamera	Free camera	Replaces tfc
tmm 1	Shows every map marker so you can fast travel	tmm 0 hides all markers, including cities
tfow	Reveals the whole local map	Fog of war off
unlock	Unlocks the targeted door or chest	Click the lock first
kill / killall	Kills the target / every creature nearby	Essential NPCs are knocked out instead
resurrect 1	Brings the targeted NPC back with their gear	UESP: quests may still treat them as dead
advlevel	Levels you up once, with the normal level-up screen	UESP: it can throw off later level-ups
player.setlevel 30	Sets your level directly	No level-up screen
player.setav strength 100	Sets an attribute or skill	Keep values at 255 or below
player.advskill blade 10	Raises a skill by that many levels	Skill names without spaces, e.g. handtohand
psb	Adds every spell in the game	UESP: 600+ spells, including test and creature spells
showracemenu	Reopens character creation	Change race, face or name
showclassmenu / showbirthsignmenu	Change your class / birthsign	Save first
showspellmaking / showenchantment	Opens spell making / enchanting anywhere	No altar needed
movetoqt	Teleports you to your quest target	Can leave you stuck in a wall; use ghost
coc LocationName	Teleports to a named place	Location codes are on UESP’s place pages
player.payfinethief	Pays your bounty and keeps stolen items	Costs half the bounty, like the Thieves Guild
setcrimegold 0	Sets the target’s bounty	UESP: guards may still attack until you yield
ToggleHUDVisibility	Hides the HUD for screenshots	Added in Update 1.1; ShowHUD false also works

Oblivion Remastered gold command (add gold)

Gold is item F (also written 0000000F), so the command is player.additem F followed by the amount: player.additem F 5000 gives 5,000 gold. To take gold away, use player.removeitem F 500. A merchant’s own gold is a different thing: click the merchant with the console open and type setbartergold and an amount. UESP gives a range of 1 to 65,500.

Oblivion Remastered carry weight command

The command GamesRadar+, Gamepressure and The Escapist all give is player.forceav encumbrance -X, with a number in place of X. The minus sign matters: Encumbrance counts how much you’re carrying, so a big negative value leaves room for almost anything. The Escapist says the number has to be bigger than your current carry limit to work. Gamepressure says you may need to enter it again after restarting the game.

Two other options:

• tgm ignores the carry limit while god mode is on, according to UESP. Equipped armor still slows you down.
• Your normal limit is five times your Strength, so player.setav strength 100 raises it to 500. PC Gamer also lists player.setgs factorstrengthencumbrancemult followed by a number to change that multiplier (5 by default). Only PC Gamer lists that one, so treat it as unconfirmed.

New Oblivion Remastered-only commands

The remaster adds many commands of its own, most starting with Altar. (the project’s internal codename, according to UESP). Most of them change graphics, audio and controller settings. The ones players use:

• ObvGodMode: Kotaku says it maxes all attributes, raises skills to 100, unlocks every spell and adds 1 million gold, 10,000 lockpicks and 5 torches. PCGamesN agrees on the gold, spells and maxed stats. None of the guides we checked gives a way to undo it, so save first.
• ghost, walk and ToggleDebugCamera: Unreal Engine replacements for noclip and the free camera.
• ToggleHUDVisibility and ShowHUD: Bethesda’s Update 1.1 patch notes (June 2025) say these were enabled in that patch. Update 1.2 (July 2025) didn’t mention the console.
• setstage works but is locked. UESP says to enter Altar.Cheat.AllowSetStage true first. We found this in UESP only.
• GiveViolence gives a set of iron weapons, according to UESP’s list of Altar commands. We found it in UESP only.

Old Oblivion commands that don’t work in the Remaster

PC Gamer and GamesRadar+ both retested the 2006 commands in the remaster and marked the broken ones, and UESP keeps its own “works in Remastered” column. These are the ones they agree on:

Old command	What it did	Use instead
tcl	Noclip	ghost, then walk
tfc	Free camera	ToggleDebugCamera
tm	Hide menus and HUD	ToggleHUDVisibility
modpca	Add points to an attribute	player.setav
bat	Run a batch file of commands	exec filename (UESP: the file must be in the game’s Binaries folder)
swdp	Show who’s detecting you	Nothing
showsubtitle	Subtitles on/off	No console replacement listed
tlb, tg, twf, tws	Old graphics toggles	UESP: grass.enable 0 for grass

Sources disagree on a few more. PC Gamer marks qqq (quit) and set timescale to as working. UESP says qqq freezes the game (it suggests exit) and that set timescale doesn’t work. Save before you try either one.

Oblivion Remastered item IDs

Use these with player.additem ID amount. Each ID below appears on UESP’s item pages and in at least one other guide we checked (PC Gamer, GamesRadar+, PCGamesN or PC Games):

Item	Item ID
Gold	0000000F (or just F)
Lockpick	0000000A
Skeleton Key (unbreakable lockpick)	0000000B
Repair Hammer	0000000C
Goldbrand (sword)	00027105
Arrow of Burning	0004BEFB
Amulet of Luck	00091AD5
Cure for Vampirism (potion)	000977E4
Nirnroot	0004E940
Daedra Silk	00033670
Cheese Wheel	00033669
Skooma	0004E0A9

To spawn a creature rather than an item, use player.placeatme ID 1. The Unicorn, for example, has the base ID 0001EC58 on UESP.

Daedric and Glass armor IDs

These IDs come from UESP’s Daedric Armor and Glass Armor pages only, so we couldn’t confirm them in a second source. They are the plain, unenchanted pieces.

Piece	Daedric ID	Glass ID
Cuirass	0003635B	00036343
Helmet	00036357	0003633F
Gauntlets	00036358	00036340
Greaves	0003635A	00036342
Boots	00036359	00036341
Shield	0003635C	00036344

Items from the Deluxe Edition upgrade aren’t listed here. If you want those armor sets, buy the upgrade.

Do console commands disable achievements in Oblivion Remastered?

Yes. This is the biggest difference from the 2006 game, where the PC version had no achievements. In the remaster, achievements and trophies can be earned on PC (Steam and the Xbox app) for the first time, and UESP says entering any command disables them on the current save file. PC Gamer, GamesRadar+ and PCGamesN all mention the warning the game shows before your first command.

How to cheat and still keep your achievements:

1. Before you open the console, make a manual save you never cheat on.
2. Cheat on a separate save. GamesRadar+ says achievements stay off for that playthrough “at least until you reload a save”, meaning a save made before the commands.
3. Go back to the clean save when you want to hunt achievements again.

Some lists also print a command that unlocks every achievement at once. We leave it out because it skips the game entirely.

Can you use console commands on PS5 or Xbox?

No. The PS5 and Xbox Series X|S versions have no console, as UESP, GamesRadar+ and Kotaku all say. None of the guides we found covers the Nintendo Switch 2 version, released in August 2026, and we found no way to open a console there. Gold, carry weight and the other cheats above are PC only. On Steam, the game is Windows only.

Console commands not working?

• It’s a 2006 command that changed: check the “don’t work” table above (tcl and tfc are the usual ones).
• The command isn’t recognised: try obvConsole and a space in front of it.
• Targeted command does nothing: click the person or object while the console is open, then type the command without player..
• Skill values reset: values above 255 wrap back to 0. Keep skills and attributes at 255 or below.
• Carry weight resets: enter the forceav command again after a restart.

player.additem F followed by the amount, for example player.additem F 10000. It works on PC only.

How do I increase carry weight with a command?

Enter player.forceav encumbrance -5000. Use a bigger negative number for more room. God mode (tgm) also ignores the limit while it’s on.

What does ObvGodMode do?

It’s a Remastered-only command that turns on god mode, maxes your attributes and skills, unlocks every spell and adds 1 million gold. Save first, because none of the guides we checked gives a way to undo it.
