HELP!!! Unable to get to cheatcode bar?!?!? - lax3cats - 16-06-2009 12:22 AM
Im a newbie here and I'm {cursing} that I am unable to press ctrl+shift+c to open the cheat bar at the top the screen during game play. Why is that? I had this on a old but new laptop and the code worked, just baught a new one and loaded it back up and started from scratch and now I am unable to enter cheats. Please help this game is boring without being able to build stuff.

are you sure your typing it in right? what i do is hold "Shift"+"CTRL" then i press the "C" button or else it will take pictures if you type in the "C" before the other buttons
