Item Cheat Codes
To use the cheats to give yourself items, turn debugging mode on as specified in the "Cheat Codes" hint section just prior to this one. Also, note that these item cheats won't work unless you have an expansion game or equivalent patch installed.
Once that's done, you can use the dm_spawnitem command to give yourself any item in the game as long as you know its internal codename. For instance, the internal codename of Red Dragon Armor is nw_maarcl027, so to give yourself a suit, point the cursor at an empty spot on the ground, press ~, and type:
dm_spawnitem nw_maarcl027
Soon after you press ENTER to activate the code, some unidentified armor should appear on the ground where you have the cursor pointed. Have it identified to learn that it is indeed a suit of fabulous Red Dragon Armor!
IMPORTANT NOTE: In most of the codes, only the last three characters are numeric digits. That means what looks like a 1 in the above code is really a lowercase L, and what looks like an uppercase O is really a zero. Any time a code doesn't seem to work, look for possible misinterpretations like that.
I don't have the room here to give a complete list of codenames for all NWN items, but I will list some of my favorite ones. For a more complete list, use the following Internet link to GameFAQs, where a guy named Dylan Erickson has posted his list (under "Item FAQ").
