Guide: How to enable console

[TrippyG]

Ok there are 2 ways enabling console on CS:S. The 1st works on US keyboard systems and the 2nd is for European keyboard systems (European way is a bit more complicated).

US keyboard systems:

• Open Steam
• Go to Play Games
• Start Counter Strike:Source
• Go to Options -> Keyboard Tab -> Advanced and check the box that says Enable developer console
• Your done! Just press the "tilde" key for console (the button left from 1)

European keyboard systems:

• Open steam
• Go to Play Games
• Right-click on the Counter Strike:Source icon
• Choose "Properties" and then "Launch options"
• Add -console to the box that appears
• Start CS:S -> Now you should see the console DON'T CLOSE IT!!!
• Now just bind the key you want to use for console (for example: bind F3 "toggleconsole")
• You're done!!!

Could some moderator make this sticky! thx

only if you include more info, like easier ways of doing it.

options > keyboard tab > advanced > enable developer console

This way doesnt work on European keyboards... the way I told to do it works with every keyboard system
