The program does not display any saves other than those that are made through the program. If I manually change so much as the file number, it no longer appears in the list of files under "Load Game".

My Tech-Savvy skill is about a 15; I can only use extremely basic console commands, and I have no idea why they go wrong when they do. I need a very basic course of lessons, and I have no idea where I'd look to find something that works for my rather autistic learning style.

This code was successfully entered, but had no apparent effect. movetoqt still brings me to Silas's corpse (or maybe Leroy's, I'm not sure which since it's just an ash pile), and Hannibal's party continues to not be at the Mall Northwest station. I also tried CompleteAllObjectives 00014E99, which did mark the quest steps as being done, but still didn't cause Hannibal to recognize that the slavers are dead. (This is a known bug on Fallout Wiki, but there's no information provided about how to solve it, as they don't even explain the basics of how to use console commands.) Since this thread is supposed to be about console commands in general, here's another example of them not working right. I used Resurrect on Dogmeat, and he did come back to life, but then he started walking off in a straight line and I couldn't talk to him. This and numerous other attempts at using console commands in complicated way have always failed; I can use TCL, Player.additem, and other such simple commands, but the ones that require any real amount of syntax seem to have complexities that I don't understand.

"SCRIPS: Script 'SysWindowCompileAndRun', line 1: Item 'ms06' not found for parameter Quest. Compiled script not saved!"

I'm a very novice user of console commands, and I can't seem to figure them out on more than the most basic level. Is there a straighforward, no-jargon, no-fancy-programming-logic walkthrough of how to get the various console commands listed on the wiki to actually work in each specific situation? (My immediate problem is with fixing the bug in Head of State where you kill Leroy Walker and then the game thinks the slavers are still alive forever; I put in "setstage 123 80" (where 123 was the ID for HoS) and "CompleteAllObjectives 123" and neither one worked.)

I can forsee a lot more than most. 1. Yes 2. If I were God, I'd have done a better job than has obviously been done. 3. Qualified nutritionists. 4. Strawman harder. Me saying everyone should have "someone" to love does not prohibit them from having multiple someones. I'm skeptical of how many people can responsibly engage in polyamory, I think it's generally not the wisest of ideas, but I absolutely never said or implied that it was disallowed. 5. Humans are less individualistic than they like to think they are. It's a fetish for everyone to try and prove themselves unique, yet they reliably make similar choices in similar situations across huge demographic categories. If a sufficiently beneficial system is put in place, the majority of people will get onboard, and detractors will either be dragged along or just left out in the proverbial cold, either way producing similar results.

I don't actually know which of several I used; it definitely wasn't my primary one, since I didn't trust EA to have that.

How am I supposed to prove my identity to them, when I can't remember my password and can't access the email that's associated with it?

They've been violent because they needed to be. It's only been 150ish years since the majority of people worldwide weren't starving constantly, only a week without food from becoming too weak to be capable of working, with few charities interested in keeping them alive. Violence is not inherent to our nature; it's an adaptation necessitated by the environment we've been stuck in, and once our world has completely stopped rewarding and requiring violence, we'll adapt out of it.

A link to a text file does not tell me anything about why a voice performance sounds different.

Who says humans aren't peaceful by nature? Each of our causes for conflict could be solved, and we'd have nothing to fight about. Granted, if I identify the things we need to remove, people who like those things will fight to prevent their removal, but once all of those individuals no longer live, no longer raise their children in the belief that those things should exist, then the potential for peace among the survivors has increased. I think that if people have enough food to eat, someone to satisfy their need for love, and no ideological conflicts to pointlessly fight over, there's no reason why we can't all just get along.

Modern *technology* has NOT existed, ever before in at least 160,000 years. World peace is possible through the intelligent application of these technologies, even if the invention of them had been powered almost entirely by non-intelligent and non-peaceful motives.

Trying to take the capability for violence away from human beings is like trying to design a less explosive version of gasoline to put in your car. Not only is it probably impossible, but it entirely misses the point to even try in the first place. We don't need "world peace". We need human beings smart enough to recognize when it is or isn't the appropriate time to engage in violence. People who get emotionally upset and lash out? They'll use any tool they can get their hand on as a weapon, so it's pointless trying to disarm them; we should instead be teaching them to calm themselves and seek a more constructive solution. But law enforcement preventing those who refuse to be calm from harming people who are just minding their own business? That's absolutely a correct use of force. And equipping a citizen militia to oppose government military forces in the event of tyranny or a coup or something? That's also correct. Violence is not bad. Violence that's evil in purpose or indiscriminate in application, that's what's bad. We don't need fewer weapons. We need responsible weapon-users.

I don't really understand the whole concept of "game communities" as shown here; a forum makes sense to me, but having a different forum that's separate from the actual forum confuses me more than a little. Still, I tried to play along, and posted my question there: https://forums.nexusmods.com/topic/13498921-mass-effect-downgrade-can-files-be-fixed/#comment-130467754 my response has been silence. when I've asked questions on the actual forum, they at least got SOME acknowledgement. Did I do something wrong, or was it wrong of me to try and do something right?
