\\\|/// \\ - - // ( @ @ ) ------------------------oOOo-(_)-oOOo------------------------ | Miscellaneous Cheats | | By James Judge | ---------------------------------Oooo------------------------ oooO ( ) ( ) ) / \ ( (_/ \_) Hi there! I s'pose that after reading my reviews of all these arcade games, such as Doom, you've all gone rushing out and gotten hold of copies of the shareware version of the games. Good, aren't they. But there is one small problem, isn't there? Yep - you're a bit too slow after playing text adventures for all these years, so you can't QUITE kill that last boss, not to mention the first enemy . So, here I am with a small selection of cheats that I've collected over the past year or so and I'm sure that if Doom is giving you gripe, Heretic is proving too much and Rise Of The Triad is leading to a rise in blood pressure this little lot will help. I can vouch that most of the cheats work - everything but the Dark Forces, Hexen and Jazz Jackrabbit cheats I've been able to test out. Also there are a couple of hints for Doom 2 players and Descent enthusiasts thrown in for good measure... JAZZ JACKRABBIT Pause the game by pressing

and then choose your option from the following: LAMER Level Skip GUNHEAD Rapid fire and ammo BOUF Full health and toggle invincibility SABLE Toggles high speed and jumping CSTRIKE Toggles airboard DOOM Enemies speed up and take more hits KEN Quits to DOS HOOKER Ensures trip to bonus level MARK Kills Jazz HOCUS Teleports Jazz CHECK Displays info on status bar ARJAN Displays a message GREETZ Displays another message. TIM Hey - guess what? This displays a... wait for it... message. Wow! DOOM 2 OK, cheater, having probs with the Pain Elemental? Want to show the Revenants some REAL muscle? Well, type these cheats in any time during the game and all manner of wonders will be yours. Don't try to do it while you're moving though as the game won't accept the cheat. Tsk, what a shame! IDDT Type this two or three times on the map screen to get full map and the locations of all the monsters and items. If there are some monsters moving this can also act as a kind of radar. If you're playing in Deathmatch mode and want to find out where your human opponents are type it in four times! IDDQD Turns you into a God - can't be hurt by anything. IDFA Gives you all the weapons and full armour and ammo. IDKFA The same as above, but also gives you all the keys. Cool! IDCLIP Toggles the clipping. Lets you move through walls. See below for a legitimate use for this cheat... IDMYPOS Prints your co-ordinates in hex, for some obscure reason. I use it all the time - honest! IDCHOPPERS Get sawing with that chainsaw! Buuzzzzzzz... IDCLEVXX Transports you to a level of your choice (XX). Enter values between 1 and 32. 31 and 32 are the secret levels. IDBEHOLD Enables the cheat mode. After typing it in press one of the following keys for different power-ups: R Radiation Suit I Invisibility V Invincibility A Gives you the map L Light Amp S Berserker Rage On the last level of the game you may hear the icon say something in a deep garble. If you can sample it and reverse the sample (so I've been told) you get the message that to complete the game you must kill the head of John Romero (one of the programmers of Doom 2). To do this tap in IDCLIP an then walk towards the icon. Enter the wall and keep on going - you'll quickly enter a small room with the head of John Romero. Give him a couple of blasts in the nasal passages with the shotgun and you've completed the game. Well done! Talking of that icon, the way to kill it is to turn around from your starting position and then head left. Press the image to lower the first platform and keep on repeating (running to and fro) until you reach the top of the 'steps' press the skull lever and then make your way back down to the slime pit, waiting for a plinth to rise from it. Press space while facing the plinth and wait for it to descend and select your rocket launcher. When the plinth has descended hop on it and face the icon. Now you must time your shots correctly so that a rocket enters the small rectangle that shows the brain. Repeat this a few times and watch the satisfying explosion. Yup - you've killed it and completed the game! Have a cup of tea. DOOM All of the important cheats are the same as in Doom 2. The only things that aren't present are the IDFA and IDCLIP cheats. Other than that just see the list above, you naughty cheater you... HEXEN Tapety-tap these cheats into the game and you're away... SATAN God Mode NRA ALL Weapons LOCKSMITH All keys INDIANA All artefacts SHERLOCK All the puzzle pieces MAPSCO Map code PUKE Script code CASPER No clipping INIT Restart level DELIVERENCE Pig mode BUTCHER Kills all monster on level TICKER Gives the frame rate NOISE Sound debug WHERE Gives your X and Y co-ordinates MARTEK Type it three times and you die. Yee-ees! CONAN No weapons ~ Let you play a CD where the value is the track number. You must select "CD Audio" as your soundcard in the setup, though. TERMINAL VELOCITY Haven't reviewed this game, but thought some of ya might have it. Not a brilliant game, but worth a blast now and again - especially on a high-spec machine. Anyway, type in these codes for bountiful rewards: TRIGODS Invincibility TRISHLD Shield TRINEXT Level warp TRIHOVR Hoverpad MANIACS Afterburner TRSCOPE Oscilloscope TRFRAME Frame rate 3D REALM Smokin' TRIFIR1 PAC TRIFIR2 ION TRIFIR3 RTL TRIFIR4 MAM TRIFIR5 SAD TRIFIR6 SWT TRIFIR7 DAM TRIFIR8 Afterburner TRIFIR9 Invisibility TRIFIR0 Invincibility TRIBURN Go faster than your lasers! DESCENT First the levels which contain the exit to the three secret levels, then a few cheats are in order, I think. The first secret level is accessed from Level 10. Find the red door and then the two textured wall segments near it, activate them and you'll be safe and sound into the secret level. One word of warning. These secret levels are the hardest in the game, so unless you really want to have a fight on your hands, or impressing your friends, don't enter them in the hope of attaining loads of weapons for free. You'll probably end up dead... time and time again. You do get big scores, though, so it may be worth it for the extra lives. The second secret level is accessed from Level 21. Go past the normal exit and down and around two slalom walls. Shoot the wall above to open a pathway to the secret level. Hooray! The third secret level is on level 24. I haven't gotten to it yet. but a map I've got shows it to be just off a really large rectangular room where you go through one secret door (behind which is a Mega-Missile) and then another (behind which is the exit). The cheats. Some will only work on the commercial version. A little warning - entering the cheat enabler zeros your score and you can't attain a score after that, with the word "CHEAT" being printed beside your score every time you kill an enemy. Haha! GABBAGABBAHEY Type this to enable the cheat mode then type: MITZI All keys RACERX Invincibility SCOURGE All the weapons FARMERJOE Level skip menu TWILIGHT Full shields GUILE Cloak F Brings up the entire map BRUIN Extra life BUGGIN Turbo mode toggle BIGRED Super weapons AHIMSA Toggle robot firing FLASH Exit path illuminated by power-ups. Want to know how to kill the nasty boss at the end of level seven? Tough - it took me two days to do it, so you can do it on your self. A few hints, though. Stay in the small alcove beside the entrance door for the first part of the fight. The boss probably won't see you and this will enable you to nip out and attract the attention of some of the other robots around the large room. Kill them off and then zoom through to the column in the centre of the room. Find a few of the passageways and figure out where they all lead. While you're doing this continue to kill off all of the smaller robots. If the boss fires at you you'll probably be dead but if you can fly away from the missile, around the column as fast as possible. Find a corridor that has a sharp turn or door in it and go through it, exiting from the other side. Hopefully by then you'll have lost the missile and the green plasma balls. Once you've killed all the small robots it's just a matter of nipping out from the column and attacking the boss. When you first hit him he will cloak, but keep on firing and use the method above to get rid of his missiles. After a long while he'll die. One other thing - the proximity mines may also be a way of getting rid of his missiles and plasma balls. Good luck - you'll need it. HERETIC I know that all of these work on the shareware version. I'm not sure about the commercial version, though. Same deal - type 'em in and you'll be away. QUICKEN God mode RAMBO Max weapons and ammo GIMExx Get artefacts a-j and 1-9 (letter selects artefact, number selects how many you receive) SKEL Gives all the skeleton keys RAVMAP Shows the full map KITTY No clipping ENGAGExx Level warp PONCE Full health SHAZAM Power up those weapons MASSACRE Kill all the monsters on that level COCKADOODLEDOO Chicken mode (Honest!)
