How to load maps in UDK
There's one glaring omission in this game - ability to load any checkpoint at will. This is, for example, very helpful when trying to earn achievements ('cause they ARE skippable in this game).

This idea is not thoroughly tested, as I was not able to earn achievements loading the maps this way. I need your help to test it out.

Loading maps in UDK is simple. Just open up the console ("~ key" on your keyboard) and type "open <map name>" without the quotes. For all the maps list you can go to:

...\Steam\steamapps\common\Unmechanical\UDKGame\CookedPC\Maps

Here's a screenshot of the folder.




What I found out though, is that I was only able to load the big maps (bigger than 6MB in size), like the first 4 in the list, as well as INTRO and OUTRO maps.

Test it out and see how it goes for you.

You have to go to settings in the options menu. Check the box "enable console". Then you can press the tilde and that is it!. You should try testing it out more. You might actually discover more. RL is really interesting. You know? Cheers. :)

My answers will be disappointing, I'm afraid. It was long ago, my memory is hazy, but I think I wasn't able to unlock any achievements too this way, but I'm not really sure. And I think I had to get Nothing but Not without using this trick. All in all, I didn't find this trick useful for myself at all, to be honest, but thought others may discover more.
As for activating it, I'm pretty sure I just pushed the tilde and that was it, no special parameters were needed.

Did you ever test it more to find out if you can unlock achievements this way? I've been trying to get Nothing But Net for ages, and it'd be nice to just reload that section for an immediate do-over when I run out of rocks.

Also, is there a particular launch parameter you used to activate the console? I tried -console but pressing ~ never toggles anything.
