Fallout 3 Hints
Getting Stuff
In order to get stuff with the "player.additem" command, you have to know the form number of the item you want. That's a lot easier now that there's a construction set program for Fallout 3. Also, you can use the player.inv command to get a list of codes for your current inventory items (scroll the list with the Page Up and Page Down keys), which will allow you to give yourself more of anything you already have.
EXAMPLE: The form number for bottle caps is F, so to get 100 caps, you'd type: player.additem F 100.
