The tilde key doesnt work for the cheats on 18 wheels of steel American long haul

Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy
of the file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "config.cfg"
file in the "\18 WoS American Long Haul" directory in my documents .

Changes these lines:
--------------------
uset g_console "0"
uset g_developer "0"
uset g_police "0"

to:

uset g_console "1"
uset g_developer "1"
uset g_police "1"

This will (in order), enable ~ to display the console window; enable
developer mode; and disable the police. To activate the remaining cheat
codes, press ~ during game play to display the console window.

Then, enter one of the following codes to activate the cheat function.

Result Code
----------------------
$500,000 - cheat money
Random driver - cheat driver
