Can I get a link for the said mod or what the "console" you're talking about is? I'm not very tech savvy and don't have access to these variables and such. I wanna do money/str/charm/int cheat. That's itThere are a number of mods to assist with this.
If you know the variable you want to change, you can use the console and the (put) macro which will not trigger the cheats.
The cheats only affect achievements, so if they don't matter, use the cheats menu in the game.
