General
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):
  • "badass" - Gain all psychic powers, changes all abilities and weapons to level 5
  • "god" - You cannot be damaged past 1 health, except by physics and fall damage
  • "UseAmmo" - Enables unlimited ammo
  • "Invincible" - You and all characters die in one hit
  • "PlayersOnly" - Freeze all other characters except you
If you want to turn these off, simply retype the console command. Note that it will not reverse Badass.
Vehicles
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):

Seeker Speeder / Razor
Type "summon vehicles.SeekerSpeeder" into the console to spawn.
The Razor is a flying vehicle intended to supplement the chase sequence in Chapter 2, but it was unstable and likely lacked a finished AI. You can swap between flight and hover modes, and its height is controlled with the mouse.

Be aware you cannot leave the Speeder once you climb onto it. Ramming hard into objects is known to cause fatal computer crashes, so drive carefully.

Warhammer
Type "summon vehicles.Warhammer_S" into the console to spawn.
The Warhammer is unfortunately broken and can't be driven. It likely doesn't appear in the final game because of physics issues. Nonetheless, you can access one of its turrets and fire out of it. You just won't be able to climb out.

Here's a list of common vehicles. Type "summon vehicles.[name]", replacing "[name]" with the given vehicle code.
  • Scythe - "Scythe_S"
  • Seeker Tank - "SeekerTank"
  • Seeker Dropship - "SeekerDropship"
  • Human Turret - "HumanTurret"
  • Seeker Turret - "SeekerTurret"
  • Training Shuttle - "HumanTrainingShuttle"
  • Human Diplomatic Shuttle - "HumanDiplomaticShuttle"
  • Aurelian Dropship - "AurelianDropship"
NPCs
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):

RoboSapien
Type "summon eoncharacters.xRoboSapien" into the console to spawn.
The RoboSapien was an engineered creature intended to appear in Chapter 6. They appear in some early screenshots, but were likely removed either due to time constraints or unfinished AI. There are numerous voice clips describing them as "replicons." Check the Weapons section below to see how to spawn its weapon.

Here's a list of common NPCs. Type "summon eoncharacters.[name]", replacing "[name]" with the given character code:
  • GideonPilot
  • GideonPilotNoHelmet
  • GideonPilotNoHelmetLongHair
  • GideonDressUniform
  • GideonEnd
  • GideonFrozen
  • Marin
  • MarinSpace
  • MarinDress
  • Olivia
  • OliviaLabcoat
  • OliviaLongHair
  • OliviaSpace
  • Ethan
  • BountyHunterB
  • BountyHunterC
  • GalacticSenatorC

Some of these spawned NPCs may cause game crashes. Use with caution. Sometimes the character won't spawn for some reason. If you'd like to try out more of these, use a text editor to open "EonCharacters.u" in Advent Rising's System folder and search for them.

Avatar
Thanks to ermaccer, we've learned you can control some of these characters with the "avatar" command.
Type "avatar" into the console followed by "EonCharacters.[enter name of character here]".
Note that not all characters are playable, but you can do basic commands.

Check out ermaccer's video on it here:
Weapons
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):

Seeker Mass Disruptor
Type "summon eonweapons.seekerdisruptor_weap" into the console.
This is the weapon used by Seeker Elites. It sadly does not fire, but it was obviously intended to be a prized weapon for defeating an Elite, as its position is aligned properly in first-person view. You can summon its effect by typing "summon eoneffects.fx_massdisruptor_implosion".

Aurelian Pulse
Type "summon eonweapons.aurelianpulse_weap" into the console. This is the arm weapon used by the Felidic Warriors. Unfortunately, it deals no damage when equipped.

RoboSapien Weapon
Type "summon eonweapons.robosapien_weap" into the console. This is the remnants of the RoboSapien's weapon. It also does not deal damage. You can access its effect by typing "summon eoneffects.fx_robosapien_laser" or "summon eoneffects.fx_robosapien_muzzle".

Here's a list of common weapons. Just type the gun's code into the console:
  • Human Stungun - "stungun"
  • Faust C-41 (Human Pistol) - "pistol"
  • H.A.Z.E. Blaster - "blaster"
  • Rockwell-Young XJ9 Machine Gun - "xj9"
  • Talmage Rocket Launcher - "launcher"
  • D'nex Talon (Seeker Pistol) - "SeekerPistol"
  • G'kol Acolyte - "pulsegun"
  • Kaull Firelance - "assault"
  • Darkfire - "seekerxj9"
  • Discord - "SeekerMicrowaveGun"
  • Gnashbone Fury - "SeekerLauncher"
  • ShadowStalker - "photon"
Effects
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):

Unused Healing power
Type "summon eoneffects." followed by "healradius", "healonhand", or "healself".
The leftover effects of a removed Heal psychic power. This was likely obsoleted when they moved to an automatic healing system, but obviously intended it to heal both the player and allies nearby. In one of the early E3 gameplay trailers, you can see this power equipped in the HUD.

Race To Save Humanity contest icons
These are the icons for the million dollar Race To Save Humanity contest. Only the first two (orange and green) were used before the contest was cancelled due to security and timezone issues.

Type "summon eoneffects.[name]", replacing "[name]" with the given effect code:
  • "fx_A_logo"
  • "fx_A_logo_blue"
  • "fx_A_logo_green"
  • "fx_A_logo_pink"
  • "fx_A_logo_purple"
  • "fx_A_logo_red"
Miscellaneous
During gameplay, press Tab to activate the console. Then type in any of the following, minus the quotation marks ("):
  • "teleport" - Teleports Gideon forward toward the crosshairs
  • "SetJumpz [x]" - Increases the height of all jumps, default is about 1000.
  • "SetGravity [x]" - Increases or decreases the gravity, default is about 3000.
  • "ChangeSize [x]" - "1" is default, lower will shrink Gideon and higher will enlarge him
  • "ShowAll" - Shows hidden Unreal engine objects and bounding boxes
Rendering modes ("rmode [x]"):
  1. Wireframe
  2. Zone portal
  3. Texture use
  4. BSP cuts
  5. Normal view
  6. Textured, no lighting
  7. Lighting only, no textures

Ah. Thanks, @Chunk!

@keeganfritzk, those were ones that either did nothing or crashed the game for me. I tested everything I could find in the EonCharacters.u file, but it's possible some would only work on specific levels.

were you able to get the evil versions of Ethan or Oliva to spawn in? I remember trying that a few months ago and it wasn't working for me.

@ermaccer, very cool, I didn't know about this! Super interesting how it saves a checkpoint in the very same spot. I added it and your video under the NPCs section.

There's a command which allows you to control stuff - avatar.

Perhaps add it to guide?
