How to disable Mass Effect 3 console in Legendary Edition

I had same problem and I want to give you a receipt of solution  =)

Find this on Reddit
"Yes, there is a solution. You need "ME3Tweaks Mod Manager" program. First, to rebind console keys, second - to rebind other "preserved" keys, the latter could be done by editing "coalesced.bin", BioInput.xml."
 It works. 🙌

    Thanks!

    I didn't know ME3Tweaks Mod Manager could do that, very handy! I sometimes hit Tab accidentally, so I just redefined it out of the way.

    The other post from "Mesqo" on Reddit had more details:

    "Luckily, I had an app at hand called "ME3Tweaks Mod Manager" which has a tool "Console Key Keybinder" which can rebind default console keys for every game in a bundle (ME1-ME3)."

    By default MELE doesn't have a dev console active. Therefore a simple game repair (or file integrity check) will restore bink2w64.dll to original and bye bye console.

    Or you can remap TAB in coalesced.bin (alter more files). Pretty much like using a keyboard remap software to reassign TAB to PAUSE (as example).

    But... it's not by default any more since using that Mod Manager 🙂 And no manual file editing needed, simples! (Unless I guess if you want to remap "un-remappable" keys).
