Icarus Console Commands

Icarus (by RocketWerkz) has no always-on developer console. There are two real command sets: a handful of UE4 cheats you reach by injecting the free Universal Unreal Engine 4 Unlocker, and the official server admin commands you type in chat after /AdminLogin. Here's both, straight.

How to Open the Console in Icarus

1

Cheat console (single-player / your own session): download the Universal Unreal Engine 4 Unlocker (UUU) from framedsc.com, it's free and widely used.

2

Launch Icarus first, then open the UUU program.

3

In UUU's General tab, select the Icarus process (Steam: usually Maine; Game Pass: Mainetx) and click Inject DLL, an in-game pop-up confirms it.

4

Press the tilde key (~, below Escape) to open the console overlay, then type EnableCheats and press Enter before any other cheat.

5

Admin / server commands: set AdminPassword in ServerSettings.ini and restart the server.

6

In-game, press Enter to open chat, type /AdminLogin YourPassword, and you'll see 'Login Successful'. Admin lasts the current session only.

The UE4 Unlocker is third-party software, some antivirus tools false-positive it; add an exception if needed. Admin privileges do not persist across reconnects, re-run /AdminLogin each session. Cheating on a shared save can corrupt other players' progress.

Icarus Commands FAQ

Does Icarus have a built-in console I can open with a key?
No. Icarus exposes no console by default. The only official commands are the /admin chat commands on dedicated servers. To reach UE4 cheats (god, teleport, timespeed…) you inject the free Universal Unreal Engine 4 Unlocker, then open the console with the tilde (~) key.
Will the UE4 Unlocker get me banned or disable achievements?
RocketWerkz hasn't banned for single-player UUU use and the tool is widely used across Unreal games. There's no confirmed evidence it disables Steam achievements in Icarus, but it isn't officially documented either way, use it on a separate save and never on public servers.
How do I become admin on my dedicated server?
Stop the server, open Icarus/Saved/Config/WindowsServer/ServerSettings.ini, set AdminPassword=YourPassword under [/Script/Icarus.DedicatedServerSettings], save and restart. In-game, open chat and type /AdminLogin YourPassword, repeat each time you reconnect.
Can I spawn items or give myself XP with a command?
Not through any documented command, Icarus has no official GiveItem/SpawnItem/GiveXP. The community workaround is editing profile.json under %localappdata%\Icarus\Saved\PlayerData\[Character]\. Back it up before editing.
timespeed isn't doing anything, why?
You probably skipped EnableCheats. After injecting the unlocker and opening the console with ~, type EnableCheats first, then try timespeed [number] again.
