KF2 Cosmetic Slot Trick: SetCharacterAttachment Console Guide

This is a short translation of a Chinese community guide (a simplified summary of an original forum post) about forcing cosmetic items into attachment slots in Killing Floor 2 with console commands. It is useful when two accessories normally conflict with each other and the game will not let you wear both. See also equipping conflicting cosmetic accessories and Printoutcharactercosmeticinfo basics.

Step 1. Read your cosmetic numbers

1. Start the game and open the console with ~ or F3.
2. Enter these three commands one after another:
   • enablecheats
   • showlog
   • Printoutcharactercosmeticinfo
3. A black data window appears and lists the numbers of the cosmetics you are wearing right now. Enter Printoutcharactercosmeticinfo again whenever you want to refresh the list.
4. Write down the number of the accessory you want to force in. Each character has its own accessory numbers.

The author notes they do not know how to close the black window, and that the data is also saved in a text file (shown in the second screenshot).

The log output with the mesh and skin indexes of the worn cosmetics.

Step 2. Force the accessory into a slot

Use this command:

SetCharacterAttachment <mesh index> <skin index> <slot> TRUE

Slot numbers: first attachment slot = 0, second = 1, third = 2.

Example for the third slot:

SetCharacterAttachment 237 1 2 TRUE

Where the cosmetic data is stored on disk.
