There are cheats that use the underline but don't begin with one.
The lists of cheats online are out of date and many don't work anymore and the one you're trying to use could be one of them.
Don't use cheats, it ruins every game
Are you using a non-english (US) keyboard? Using the "_" (underscore) is important if you want to use the console commands ("cheats"), so if your keyboard works differently then the US keyboard could be that it is that the "_" also acting as another key.
What button do you use to open the console? Is it "~" (tilde) key ?
irishron he is using cheats from gamespot
Its not me who is using cheats its my friend but he has some connection problems
That list was out of date before the 1.2 patch was released and some of those only work with a script.
Which cheats are he trying to use?

Is his copy of Windows in English and his copy of Medieval2 English? ~ key is the right one if so.
By the way, my keyboard says "Made in China" even though I'm in California.
What is the cheat he is trying to use?
Is he trying to enter the cheat in English or Bosnian?
To me, if he can open the cheat window with ~ and enter the cheat in English, it should work.
What cheat is it so I can tell you if it even works or not?
Both work for em.
process_cq name of city/castle
add_money 40000 is max that will show up.
Are you two using the same keyboard?
If it works for toggle_fow, no reason for it not to work for the others.
Where did he get the game?
It depends on which language settings he's using on his keyboard and depending on that, certain keys are swapped. My settings:
If he has Win 7/8/8.1 or Vista, has he tried disabling the UAC?
He may have to invest in a real US/UK keyboard. There is a post buried in here where a long time member of this forum on a trip from London to Rome and had to take along hid UK keyboard for the cheat console to work even though he could set the Rome hotel's keyboard to English. It has something to do with the way they are mapped internally that I don't fully understand.
