FAQ exclusive text START POINT:
===============================
This document has been under work for many years while discovering things when
playing with cheat codes and other things. It is modified to be able to be
posted to GameFAQs and if you want the original send me a message. Though some
areas here might be somewhat confusing as the original contains screenshots.
Original updated to include findings covering PS1 The World is Not Enough and
its prototype, 007 Racing, Agent Under Fire, NightFire on PS2, PC and GBA and
N64 The World Is Not Enough and its prototype among some other stuff.
For some reason, GameFAQs lists this as a Secrets FAQ, but I'd say it's more of
a Cheat/Secret/Unused content/Version difference/Trivia/Glitch FAQ. I had
considered of writing a walkthrough to this game, and that idea saw the light of
day at around 2018-11, with the first revision being finished in 2018-12.
There's a few items I'd like to have to expand and authenticate certain things
in this document file further. These are seen at the bottom. If you have any and
would like to donate them for this document, get in touch. Credit will be given.
Also, if you decide to click the donate button, it's used to get more version
differences known and covered.

AUTHOR’S BRIEF HISTORY WITH THE GAME A.K.A. HOW THIS DOCUMENT CAME TO BE
------------------------------------------------------------------------
One day, author got a Sony PlayStation, a DualShock controller, a memory card,
and a bunch of CD-R games. One of them was the NTSC/U version of Tomorrow Never
Dies. As he didn’t know English he didn’t figure out so easily what to do. But
he got through the first mission. Then he was stuck at the second mission for a
while. He figured out what to do after a small while, and that felt like a small
victory. Then the same for mission 3, getting stuck for a while. The rest wasn’t
that bad, those went pretty smoothly. The author found a sequence break on
mission 5 pretty early, skipping the first objective being checked off.
Eventually he completed the game on Agent difficulty. Then he went for the
completion on 007 difficulty. It was made easier as he knew what to do. He
eventually managed that, but at the last mission he lost 2 lives. Then the
author went to some cheat sites and got some cheats. Some were odd codes, some
had wrong names (this was discovered later) and the author thought “Can I find
more cheats and submit those?” and he madly started with the button combinations
knowing the pattern. He did eventually find plenty of codes no-one had found and
knew except the developers themselves and thus, nobody had seen online until
this document. The author didn’t have any means of distributing his newly found
information at that point. He then years later stumbled into TCRF and various
pre-release contents. He then got into the data of the disc he had and extracted
a whole bunch of stuff. He then got the ROM images for all the versions of the
game and began to work with the document you are seeing before you, which has
evolved into what it is now. (It was actually inspired by another page, and he
contacted the author of that page to help with this.) He then managed to get a
legit European UK disc of the game, in Scandinavian packaging, which was a
Platinum version, and played that through, only in Agent difficulty. At some
point he also managed to get the soundtrack CD of the game in retail and promo
versions. Some time later he managed to get another European UK copy, again in
Scandinavian packaging, this time a “Black Label” copy to accompany his Platinum
copy. Then sometime later among updating things, he got a strategy guide of the
game. At this point he started to scan a bunch of things. Sometime later he got
the German version of the strategy guide. Sometime later, he saw an actual
Japanese copy on sale, and he bought it among other stuff from the same seller.
He has played that version through with an authentic hardware on Agent
difficulty. He then managed to finally complete the last mission in NTSC/U
version on 007 difficulty with 0 deaths. Then he played the NTSC/J version
through on 007 difficulty with 0 deaths. He then started the process with the
PAL/UK version and eventually made it through. A friend of his was present when
he played the PAL/UK version on 007 difficulty from start to finish. He then
managed to get the digital press kit of Tomorrow Never Dies, which he found
somewhat disappointing, but interesting nonetheless. Then finally he got a legit
NTSC/U disc, which was a “Black Label” version. Also he possesses the UK 2 GAMES
release disc, and only the layout of the disc was interesting to him, as all
releases contain the exact same data. He then managed to get another strategy
guide for the game, this time unofficial. Then arrived another version of
Prima’s strategy guide. He then got his hands on the PAL/G version of the game.
He then completed the PAL/G version on both difficulties without deaths. He then
a bit later got the Greatest Hits - variant 1 and Collectors' Edition versions
of NTSC/U version, the Collectors' Edition being a part of EA Action Pack and he
also got the “Black Label” PAL/F version of the game.
And now, we are at the current point in time.
----------------------------------
What author thinks about the game:
----------------------------------
Author doesn’t get the complaints he’s seen everywhere. It’s easy to complete
when one knows the controls, levels, layouts and game mechanics. The game is
quite easy on Agent difficulty. The last 2 missions may give trouble when you
try to complete them without a single death. On 007 difficulty you have a harder
time. The only real glitches are mostly absent, pretty much mostly some enemies
fail to appear at times but when you turn around, they spawn and probably shoot
you, depending on where you are when that happens.
-----------------------------------
Author’s tips for playing the game:
-----------------------------------
- Read the manual.
- You can adjust the button mappings, so you might want to do that.
- Strafe, strafe, and straferun.
- You might want to shoot barrels and boxes as they sometimes contain items,
especially you want them in 007 difficulty.
- Leave any armor if it would give you more bars’ worth than you have available,
unless it’s from a destroyed object, which means it’ll disappear after a while.
But you could come back to destroy the object later...
- Learn the levels and the enemy counts, and if an enemy is missing, do a 360
when you are behind his back.
- Don’t bother shooting enemies when they move, unless you’re straight in front
of them.
- Remember that you can use your snipers like any other weapon.
- When you can, try to save med kits for later. For example, those 2 med kits in
mission 3 in the extra life room are not much use to you when you have armor and
your med kits are taken away eventually, but they can be picked up later when
there’s really some use for them.
- If the enemy hasn’t seen you, you can abuse the draw distance, as at the very
extreme distances, you faintly can see the enemy, but he can’t see you, so aim
for the head.
- If you see clips, scroll through your weapons and take it to get more ammo to
the weapon of your choice.
- In boss fights, if you can, try to stunlock the boss by shooting in the head
repeatedly. Also if you have a heavy weapon, it’s useful because it makes lots
of damage.
- Conserve your extra lives for later, or at least try to. You can always replay
missions.
- NEVER USE THE ANALOGUE CONTROLS WHEN WALKING. Try it out and you see why. Does
not apply to driving and skiing.

1: Tomorrow Never Dies (PS1): Full game or Alpha / Beta?!
---------------------------------------------------------
Started as Tomorrow Never Dies: The Mission Continues, the game was supposed to
be made to Windows-PC and PS1, but it was scrapped and started over. The game
was supposed to continue where the movie left off, featuring hijacking a tank,
escaping with cars, swimming and parachuting. The final product is known as
Tomorrow Never Dies, developed by Black Ops and published by EA GAMES in 1999.
Interestingly, EA does not advertise itself in the game data, not the usual EA
FMV’s or anything, only a small mention in the game’s credit sequence
(Electronic Arts Distribution), even though they were having a small part here
(as a distributor only, but still). The game seems to be complete, but in the
disc itself, everything seems weird comparing to the final game. There might be
3 missions from the continuation story, as they never happen in the movie and
some prerelease pictures have places that look like them in terms of level
design and / or objects. While having lots of odd stuff and glitches (All I have
found are using cheats except a few minor ones so what is going on?) it is
rumored that the game is rushed BETA version as it seems somewhat unfinished. I
think AI could have been somewhat better and them occasional slowdowns are
annoying, especially when nothing is going on at the moment (i.e. codes used to
hide everything possible and the game still LIKES TO BE SLOW).
Does the game follow the movie? It wasn’t meant to be that way at first. At the
final state, there’s some interesting things. The gunbarrel from the movie is
seen, though in the game’s opening FMV before the main menu. While the game
starts with a location somewhere in Russian border, it’s not the Arms Bazaar.
The first mission is not seen in the movie. Arms Bazaar is the second mission,
followed by an FMV having the things leading to the (opening) credits. It was
quite a genius idea using the title sequence designed by Daniel Kleinman and
putting the game credits there. Though they got a clean, textless version of it,
the sequence is Pan & Scanned to 1.33:1 (4:3), sadly - everything outside the
credit sequence is seen in the correct aspect ratio (2.35:1) by letterboxing.
The proper music for the sequence is also present. Mission 3 has Bond in
Carver’s party, but apparently doing things differently when compared to the
movie. Mission 4 takes place in the printing press, where the encoder is found,
but without the kind of escape seen in the movie. After the mission there’s a
small FMV taken from the movie, kept in its original aspect ratio this time
(2.35:1) by letterboxing. Then in mission 5, we are at the Hotel Atlantic. We
fight Dr. Kaufman, but we find that Paris is alive and a sort of escape happens.
An FMV sequence happens after the mission, again in correct aspect ratio
(2.35:1) by letterboxing. What’s interesting is that “That parking lot car chase
sequence should’ve been the driving mission” is what the author thought after
sort of seeing this thing again in mid 2019 (he listened the isolated music
track seen on Ultimate Edition DVD). Mission 6, a driving mission, is not seen
in the movie at all. Same goes for mission 7, not seen in the movie. Mission 8
has you in Carver’s tower in Saigon, but you’re not captured to begin with. Time
of day is also night. Mission 9 differs by Bond not being in the Marketplace
area, instead it’s Wai Lin only, doing different stuff than in the movie, while
being an instance where you play as her. Also the time of day is at night still.
Mission has a small puzzle at the very end, a randomized code. After the
mission, an FMV is seen, in the correct aspect ratio (2.35:1) by letterboxing.
Mission 10 has the player being in the Stealth Boat, but doing things
differently, again. If played at 007 difficulty, the final FMV plays after the
last mission, where the sequence has a couple of short clips from the end of the
movie - in the correct aspect ratio (2.35:1) by letterboxing - and then some
clips from the game that are in 4:3 (full frame) follow, and interestingly, they
are taken from the earlier phases of the game. This sequence also has the song
from the end credits of the movie, but not as the same version, it’s the version
that’s on the soundtrack album(s). Author thinks that’s too bad, as the
arrangement and vocal delivery differs from the version heard in the movie, and
he actually prefers that version. Of course, the FMV’s in the game all have a
2.0 Stereo sound, not the Dolby Digital or DTS 5.1 channel sound, while having
the film material originated on Eastman Colour Film from Kodak in a digital
form. Who knows if the prints were handled by Deluxe and/or Rank Film
Laboratories Ltd? Too bad the credits won’t advertise the game soundtrack, like
the movie credits advertise the movie soundtrack release. The theatre selected
by the author has a Dolby Digital audio system.

* = CASE OF AMMO adds 30 rounds to Assault Rifle, 10 rounds to Sniper Rifle, up

NOTE: Any item that appears when you destroy an object will disappear after one
minute if you don’t pick it up.
-------
Points:
-------
And finally, how the point system works.
You have your stats given to you when the game returns to the main menu after a
mission. You have stats in “TOTAL KILLS”, “STEALTH KILLS”, “ACCURACY”, “TIME”,
“LIVES” and “STYLE”. These add up to TOTAL SCORE.
- TOTAL KILLS: This gives you 100 points per kill.
- STEALTH KILLS: This gives you 1000 points per stealth kill.
- ACCURACY: This gives you X times 1000 points where X is your accuracy
percentage.
- TIME: This gives you -10 points per every second up to 6:59.
- LIVES: This gives you 2000 points per life.
- STYLE: This gives you the X amount of points you get by doing tricks on
skiing sections.
- TOTAL POINTS: This is all combined together.
Then there is this unknown amount of about 4000 points you have when starting a
mission. I had stats with TOTAL KILLS, STEALTH KILLS, ACCURACY, LIVES & STYLE
all at 0, and TIME 0:29 and got 3900 points. If we add the amount the TIME stat
takes away, we would have 4190 points.
-------
Bosses:
-------
In missions 5, 7, 9 and 10, there’s some bosses. They have “100” health and they
take many bullets to kill.

-------------
The differences between difficulties are that on 007 you start with one less
extra life, you take more damage, some bosses require more bullets and you
aren’t allowed to kill even one civilian. Otherwise everything’s the same.

are covered here.

1999. NTSC/J copy is dated December 20th, 1999. PAL/G copy is dated October
15th, 1999. PAL/F copy is dated October 5th, 1999.
- PAL/UK copy has a disc name of “TND_PAL_UK”. NTSC/U copy has a disc name of
“TND_NTSC”. NTSC/J copy doesn’t have a disc name. PAL/G copy has a disc name of
“TND_GERMAN”. PAL/F copy has a disc name of “TND_FRENCH”.
- NTSC/U and NTSC/J versions has a shooting gun animation on save data file
icon, PAL version(s) has just the gun icon without shooting.
- Save file size: 1 block (8 KB).
- Save name: Tomorrow Never Dies. (All regions.)
- In the games data, there is a different Mission Status screen, a loading
screen for multiplayer and Devonshire mission, they were planned, but cut.
- Note that the level order is different in the folders in the disc and how they
are seen in the final game, and the M Briefing names are in different order
also.
- One screenshot in the game’s manual suggests that there were originally 12
levels in the game, maybe more.
- The Mission Completed screen showing your stats was also a bit different.
- Game disc contains a .txt file containing level 12 A(rtifical) I(ntelligence)
options.
- Game disc contains lighting configurations for levels 3, 7, 8, 9 & 11. One of
these is empty.
- All F(ull) M(otion) V(ideo)s in the game are in .str format and the name is
shown in Options – Movie as it is in the game’s data.
- Disc includes 16 PARAM options. Files PARAM02.txt and PARAM09.txt have the
text “PARAM07.txt” on them. PARAM08.txt suggests that Gupta was to be featured
in Stealth Boat. Direct quote: “//gupta”. The coordinates given are GameworldX
8000, GameworldZ 22096. This area is in the corridor leading to the comm link,
after the door to Office 4A.
- PARAM09.txt states that there’s a “//bug” in GameworldX 53000, GameworldZ
54096.

some great comments on what is happening with the game scripts.
- Folder named XA contains dialog and music in .str format. They are used in
missions. Some dialog is unused.
- All the dialog files are in random order, as they don’t show up in that order
what they use in those 3 audio files they are in.
- Disc has completely empty folder, SYM.
- One picture behind the game’s case has one picture from earlier version
(beta?).
- When comparing the TND_PAL_UK and TND_NTSC discs, the NTSC one has more
loading screens, and 2 types for multiplayer.
- It is funny how the manual says there are two difficulties. 1st being “Agent”
and the other being “007™”.
- When played using PS2 and Disc Speed is Fast, music is sped up. Annoyance with
faster load times.
- The .EXE files of the levels contain error messages and other stuff. They have
profanities in them.

NOTE: SLES-01324 has been released in many places, with varying languages in the
set, with the game being the same English UK disc.
Certain files have this string in them:
PAL: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. for Europe area
NTSC/U: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. for North America area
NTSC/J: Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. for Japan area
NTSC/U version is missing some files in LXX folders:
GOON in L01.
ARMGRD12, BNDJCK12 and GOON in L10.
Q_22 and GN12F11 in L12.
PAL and NTSC/J are missing TMDANI05.BIN from L05.
L09 has different files between versions:
BND02_22, GN02AF22 and GN09AF22 are missing from PAL. GN09CF18, GN09DF15 and
GN09DF17 are missing from NTSC/U.
In the folder of files for mission 8, there is a model for Paris Carver. I have
been overlooking this, since I’ve seen the files but haven’t given attention to
them. The model is never loaded into the RAM.
My source of help said that the model looks like the one in mission 3, but is
not an exact copy.
A file in the game disc gives a cheat code and its explanation. It can be found
in the directory: [DISC DRIVE]:\PARAM\PARAM12.txt. The text given is: “//use
tri x3, cir cheat to get to Row 700 once in car”.
Level files list all objectives of the game. There are objectives in 2 places
between the existing ones that can be seen that have nothing to do with any of
the game’s missions:
“ELIMINATE ALL TERRORISTS”, “DESTROY BIO WEAPONS", "RECON AREA”, in addition
“PLANT HOMING DEVICE”, “PHOTOGRAPH MISSILE BAY” and “FIND THE DEVONSHIRE”.
These are also translated to German:
“ALLE TERRORISTEN VERNICHTEN“, “BIOWAFFEN ZERSTÖREN“, “GEBIET AUFKLÄREN“, in
addition “STÖRSENDER VERWENDEN“, “RAKETENBUCHT FOTOGRAFIEREN“ and “DIE
DEVONSHIRE FINDEN“.
These are also translated to French:
“TUER TOUS LES TERRORISTES”, “DETRUIRE LES BIO-ARMEMENTS”, “EXPLORER LES LIEUX”
in addition “POSER LA RADIOBALISE”, “FILMER LA SOUTE A MISSILES” and
“LOCALISER LE DEVONSHIRE”.
SHELL.EXE has traces of Multiplayer by having character names, level names and
other mentions of it close to each other.
Mission names can be seen like this: “stealth boat, ha long bay”, “market
district, saigon”, “cmgn tower, saigon”, “ski ridge, hokkaido”, “convoy, swiss
alps”, “hotel atlantic, hamburg”, “pressing engagement”, “carver media,
hamburg”, “arms bazaar, russian border” and “outpost, russian border”.
Multiplayer strings are somewhat: “stamper”, “carver”, “wailin”, “bond”,
“WAREHOUSE”, “STONEHEWN”, “JUNGLE”, “MP 1”, “OPTIONS”, “KILLS”, ”MINUTES”,
“AREA”, “START MATCH”, “P1” and “P2”.
Memory card data has interesting strings: “BESLES-01324” “TNDIES” “Tomorrow
Never Dies” in PAL/UK, “BASLUS-00975” “TNDIES” “Tomorrow Never Dies” in NTSC/U,
“BISLPS-02604” “TNDIES” “Tomorrow Never Dies” in NTSC/J, “BESLES-02376”
“TNDIES” “Tomorrow Never Dies” in PAL/G and “BESLES-02375” “TNDIES” “Tomorrow
Never Dies” in PAL/F.
In the TITLE SEQUENCE / GAME’S CREDITS video there’s the song information that
shows us “TOMORROW NEVER DIES”, “SURRENDER” and “TOMORROW NEVER DIES II”. That
“TOMORROW NEVER DIES II” has lyrics. While “TOMORROW NEVER DIES” is heard in
the OPENING / CREDITS and “SURRENDER” is heard in the ending video
(ENDSTE.str), “TOMORROW NEVER DIES II” is nowhere to be heard normally, meaning
that this information is simply a mistake or a leftover, though the song is
still in the game’s data somewhere, only some certain action used in STEALTH
BOAT level lets you to hear the song (more about that later in this document).
All cutscenes but one that are taken from the movie are shortened by some
amount, this is most noticeable in ENDHOT where the car chase is used. ENDPRI
is uncut content-wise.
It seems like unused dialog is dubbed too in other EU versions.
PK7 is internally known as SILENCED PK7. ACTION is internally known as HAND.
SMG45 is internally known as MAC10. GASBOMBS is internally known as SMOKE
GRENADE. 7.62 MM is internally known as MACHINE GUN.
Deleted weapon is loaded to RAM during mission 2.
-----------------
Gameplay oddities
-----------------
Not a gameplay oddity per se, but worth talking about. There’s the opening
credit sequence from the movie, but with the game credits instead. Now here’s
the annoying part, the opening credit sequence is in a 4:3 Pan & Scan format
(remember those days when movies were done that treatment), while the rest of
the movie footage is in 4:3 2.35:1 format, which is a reversal of sort when
compared to the days of home video (VHS tapes).
I somehow made a save file which, when loaded, is glitched as you start every
mission with “007 x 0” when starting new game or use codes to advance to a
mission which you haven’t unlocked. This happened with US version. Probably has
something to do with a few pirated Russian ROMs I found one day, and as they
are US version with changed alphabet and files with sound altered with dubbing,
they are compatible with save states when using emulator and if you happen to
have a US version save file, you can load it. Also works the other way.
UPDATE: I somehow managed to do this with a legit Japanese copy, on an actual
PS1.
Menus have a value for your selection of an option. It is from 0 to however
many options there are. Difficulty selection is different. It has 1 (AGENT) and
2 (007).
Enemies sometimes drop MED KITs when you’re low on health. A select 2 enemies
always drop one in mission 7.
When you turn on Invincibility & Walk through everything code (Select x2,
Circle x2, Triangle x4) in level 6 while in a vehicle, DRIVING PHYSICS GINV
goes from 0 to 1. When a code Select x2, Circle x2, R2, R1, L2, L1 is entered,
DRIVING PHYSICS GCHEAT goes from 0 to 1. When a code Select x2, Circle x2,
Triangle, Square x2 is entered, GOPT2 goes from 0 to 1. When a code Select x2,
Circle x2, Square, Triangle, Square is entered, GAMELOOP PROFILE DRAWSYNC
updates.
You are instructed sometimes to destroy something or hinted that barrels,
crates and stuff sometimes have stuff in them. Because of this, in some levels
you can’t get 100% accuracy without codes. Shooting anything other than guards
lowers your accuracy. Unlike some other games (i.e. 007: NightFire on PS2), you
can’t use explosives to ascend it. However, in some levels you can get guards
to shoot things for you if you are skillful enough.
In level 5 (Hotel Atlantic) go to second floor, no matter how, then go straight
to Paris and shoot her and she’ll follow you for some reason (slowly). Get to
the elevator with her and push the button.
PS1 behaviour: After that everything glitches and you are able to do nothing.
Screen likes to flash.
PS2 and Emulator behaviour: Graphics glitch and that is scary, and shooting or
encountering an enemy freezes the game, also some locations freeze the game
too. Use Objects move with you code (Select x2, Circle x2, Select x2, Triangle
x2) and you can explore the place, but still some places hang the game.
Depending on your currently equipped weapon, what is glitched is different.
DPCELLDRAW 0 behaviour on PS2 and Emulator: Freezes with a black screen after
flashing colors for a bit.
Also in level 5, there is closed elevator that is “out of order”. If that’s the
case, why in both places, there is the elevator interior?
Item collecting sound, enemy’s gunfire sound and item collecting sound is
different in level 6.
Any shooting done on the driving part of level 6 has no impact on the accuracy
of the player, destroyed cars count to kills though.
Why them enemies while skiing hit them trees they sound like Bond?
In level 9, there is a civilian acting as a guard. Either there was actually
supposed to be a guard or then there is a civilian with wrong set of things.
Killing that civilian results in MISSION FAILED.
Enemies can make an explosion that causes a civilian to die without a resulting
explosion causing game over. So can you.
For some reason some levels allow you to walk to the end and you see MISSION
COMPLETE screen, in some levels you’ll have to complete some or all objectives
to see MISSION COMPLETE screen.
STEALTH KILLS in Mission Completed Status screen means: all enemies killed
using only one bullet and / or using the stealth kill move.
Some cheat codes affect in some levels and not in others. There are cheat codes
that seems to do nothing, some are useless (Minimum Health cheat, for example),
main menu has one useless code or purpose unknown (Select x2, Circle x2, L2 x2,
R2 x2) and one code works only in levels where you are outside (Select x2
Circle x2 Triangle Circle Triangle Square) and it lets you edit something.
The floors (if any) are placed next to each other, the graphics are glitched if
you go there, the other than standard enemy characters are different, example
in level 3: after meeting with Paris, go back to see another you. Other way
around in level 5: go through the wall to another floor, Dr. Kaufman is now an
enemy with a yellow jacket, and Paris is the Bartender. This has something to
do with what the game has loaded in its VRAM. When the game changes graphic
data in VRAM, everything changes in level.
Scary stuff: If, in level 8 you go to the second floor without using the
elevator and use the elevator there, you access the 3rd floor and the enemies
become glitched, they change color when you approach them and they have a face
in their arms... (While walking through blackness backwards in level 3 and
suddenly appearing close up of Carver’s face showing up can be scary too. I get
scared easily while playing this game.)
While playing level 9, if you go to the nothingness at certain place before the
helicopter fight, there are rockets in the nothingness. You can pick them up
and continue to the fight. This pickup can be seen if you change DPCELLDRAW
mode.
Where the opening cutscene happens in level 10 can be found in the level’s
area. The area where you get GL 40 from Stamper is the place. Go through the
wall after the stacked boxes and strafe left (L2 = default) and you should be
there. The cutscene is scripted to happen there and you appear to the location
where you start, also the ending happens there. There is a door that lead you
to the ladders you climb up (as the cutscene needs the door to open) and in the
opposite direction there is a working door that takes you to blackness and the
question is, why is that door working if you’re not supposed to access that
place?
In some levels by skipping parts of the level with codes, some characters might
change. For ex. in level 10 you can get Carver to look like Stamper or Wai Lin.
If you enable All weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med kits code (Select x2 Circle
x2 L1 x2 R1 x2) in level 3 while having only Action in the WEAPONS section, you
get all the weapons, ammo and your character will act like he’s shooting, the
sound is there, but no bullets are used.
On some levels if you skip the loading part using Walk through walls code
(Select x2 Circle x2 Triangle x4) you can make glitched graphics appear. They
change to the correct ones in the brief load. If you use Objects move with you
code (Select x2 Circle X2 Select x2 Triangle x2) graphics stay the same. As
level 6 loads it is summer all the way, but after the tunnel it gets scripted
to winter. The whole level.
Go to Options – Music and press L1. Music stops. Press L1 again. Music comes
back. This also triggers console to output “pause music” and “resume”. Go to
Options – Movies and press Start. Sound plays, nothing happens. Beta features?
It is present in Japanese version also.
In the options, Music section there’s 16, 17, 18 & 19, yet there’s 24 files in
the game’s data (1 .str file contains 8).
Why in all indoor levels there’s 2 tiles at different places in the black area?
Another can be seen at coordinates X= 0 & Z= 0 at all times.
Interesting fact is that level 9 is considered as indoors even though you are
supposed to be outside blasting enemies and turrets and bunch of other stuff.
According to the Level 1 (and other’s) picture that shows graphics, there was
a “RELOAD” text at some point, probably related to a reload sequence. Then a
weapon called “SKIPOLE” that now is just an icon, weapon named “ROCKET”
(perhaps the early name for RL 66?). According to a Level 2 (and other’s)
picture that there was a text “Pause” in some point.
When in level that takes place outside, when cheat camera is used, going far
enough shows Bond and possibly some enemies again and again. Turning the camera
180 degrees usually makes the game crash. Also the game gets confused and
starts to play other tracks when the current track ends.
When all is turned invisible (Walls: Select x2 Circle x2 Select x2 Circle x2,
objects: Select x2 Circle x2 Select x2 Square x2, other details: Select x2
Circle x2 Select x2 R1 x2) and a cutscene is triggered, sometimes the game
crashes but SFX will continue indefinitely. Example: enable codes for turning
everything possible invisible and trigger the cutscene where the dish gets
destroyed.
When paused at the right time before cutscene comes up where character walks
somewhere, and Freeze Objects code is used (Select x2, Circle x2, Select x2,
Triangle x2), the cutscene either continues indefinitely or freezes after a
short while.
You can stealth kill Dr. Kaufman in level 5. As a result, you can’t complete
the level without Mission Complete code (Select x2, Circle x2, Select, Circle).
If you start the fight with Kaufman and then use the elevator, you can’t deal
any damage to Kaufman and the mission becomes impossible to complete without
codes.
Doing something makes the game alter the level. For ex. after beginning the
mission 10 and skipping the 1st objective, after getting to the escape part,
doing the 1st objective will alter the level so that it is as if you have just
completed that objective.
While enabling only Invincibility cheat (Select x2, Circle x2, Triangle,
Select) and you walk backwards into that zapping thingy and let your health
drop so you lose a life you’ll appear to position 0,0 which is an object, floor
tile 0 in indoor levels.
PS1 behaviour: Game crash.
PS2 and Emulator behaviour: You can continue playing.
In levels 3 & 8, doing weapon code (Select x2, Circle x2, L1 x2, R1 x2) gives
you ACTION, that does nothing. Apparently, it appears because in those missions
you are stripped from your weapons. In mission 8, this is not as clear as you
get PP7, which overwrites ACTION.
When killed (doesn’t really matter how), during the death animation enable
Maximum health code (Select x2, Circle x2, Up x2, Select) and you don’t lose a
life.
While fighting Dr Kaufman, if hit in the head at all times, you can miss
completely 3 times and still get Accuracy 100% stat.
In level 3 in the room where you get the elevator keycard and later an extra
life, there is a guard that won’t react to anything unless you open the door
leading to the room.
If you turn Walk through everything code (Select x2, Circle x2, Triangle x4) on
while Bond is in GHOST MODE, he will stay looking like that unless you do
certain actions.
Level 9 instructs you to “Destroy barricades”. For some reason after destroying
just one, game checks this as completed. You can use this to get through the
level faster, encountering less enemies. This pays off in 007 difficulty.
Level 4: if you open the door and leave alive the enemies, which stand still
and go through the door, they won’t shoot you for some reason.
For some reason you can pause the game during the intro part where Bond goes
down the stairs in level 4 and also in level 8 before the letterbox is opened.
If you go to the other side of the door that opens with your Fingerprint
Scanner and try to open it from other side, it refuses to open after that.
If you go far out of bounds when Paris is following you, at some point she
freezes and if you shoot her she won't die.
When in your vehicle in level 6, if you manage to enter the Disable Cutscenes &
Messages code (Select x2. Circle x2, Triangle x3, Circle), it won’t behave that
way in this level, for some reason it transfers you, along with the other cars
apparently, to the end of the level, just near the EXTRA LIFE. Because of this
you might see cars driving in the air.
Why Run faster code (Select x2, Circle x2, Square x2, Circle x2) gives you a
speed boost in outdoor levels only when Invincibility & Walk through everything
(Select x2, Circle x2, Triangle x4) is on?
When you use Cheat Camera code (Select x2, Circle x2, R2 x2) while driving or
skiing, any MED KITs or MISSILEs move away and come back and move away until
you disable the cheat.
If you use codes to walk on the sections where you ski and/or drive, before or
after it, you can pick up all the scattered items, like MISSILEs and MED KITs.
One of the missile pick-ups is invisible in mission 6. It’s the one before the
tunnel.
If you walk along the road in mission 6, you’ll eventually encounter a lone
enemy in the middle of the road, who’s not there if you proceed to the location
with a vehicle.
This has happened only 2 times over all 15 years of me playing the game. In
level 10 sometimes enemies are invisible and only gun is being visible. You
still get hurt by it. The game may or may not freeze when you go through the
mission. It is unknown what causes this.
If an enemy somehow opens the door which usually triggers an enemy to go for an
alarm in mission 3, he won’t react to it. Only if you open it, he goes for the
alarm.
If you activate the Disable trigger areas code (Select x2 Circle x2 Triangle x3
Circle) in mission 4 while the door you open with your Fingerprint Scanner is
locked, approaching the door tells you “IT’S LOCKED” instead of “ELECTRONICALLY
LOCKED”.
The chopper in mission 1 drops indefinitely 5 enemies one at a time if you don’t
advance, and the third one always drops the SECURITY CARD you need to collect.
There’s apparently many of those.
That door in mission 8 which brings the text “IT’S LOCKED” in a cutscene is not
actually locked, if you use disable trigger areas code (Select x2, Circle x2,
Triangle x3, Circle) you can open it and go through it.
Running out of Sniper Rifle or Assault Rifle bullets in mission 1 while in the
ski area on foot, the weapon sometimes refuses to change, so it can be Assault
Rifle shooting PK7 or Sniper bullets or SniperRifle shooting Assault Rifle and
PK7 bullets.
Using Cheat Engine, when forcing the selection to 10 or 11 in Select Mission
screen (missions themselves are from 0 to 9) the game shows a cutscene, ENDPRI
if 10, ENDHOT if 11 and ENDMAR if 12. After the cutscene you get Devonshire
loading screen if 10, Multiplayer loading screen if 11 and nothing if 12.
NOTE: This produces different screen in Japanese version as the unused loading
screens are taken out of the disc contents.
Using Cheat Engine you can force the MUSIC value to something else than the
game restricts you to (16, 17, 18 & 19). It seems this is coded to play the
MUSIC6.str with 00 being the stream 1, 01 being stream 2, etc until 07, which
is stream 8. Then it plays MUSIC7.str with 08 being stream 1 of that file, etc
until 23 which is stream 8 of MUSIC8.str. After that it seems to play the
dialog files starting from DIALOG18.str with 24 being stream 1 until the end of
DIALOG21.str. This is the list showing what you get with each value:
00: Confrontation
01: Letter to Paris
02: Detonate
03: Decoder
04: Outpost
05: A New Beginning
06: Pressing Engagement
07: Infrared
08: Convoy
09: PPK
10: Arms Bazaar
11: Market
12: Carver Media
13: Hotel Atlantic
14: Media Tower
16: James Bond Theme (Part 3) (Mission Failed)
17: James Bond Theme (Part 2) (Mission Completed screen)
18: Alarm
19: James Bond Theme (Part 1) (Mission 1 ending)
24: Mission 3 line
25: Mission 10 line
26: Mission 2 line
27: Mission 7 line
28: Mission 6 line
29: Mission 10 line
30: Mission 8 line
31: Mission 10 line
32: Mission 5 line
33: Mission 10 line
34: Mission 10 line
35: Mission 5 line
36: Mission 2 line
37: Mission 5 line
38: Unused line
39: Unused line
40: Unused line
41: Unused line
42: Unused line
43: Unused line
44: Mission 10 line
45: Unused line
46: Mission 9 line
47: Mission 9 line
48: Mission 9 line
49: Mission 9 line
50: Mission 1 line
51: Unused line
52: Mission 10 line
53-55: Mission 10 line
What’s interesting is that dialog files play only once, but music files loop
until you end it. Also you can’t change the line until it’s played through,
pausing the audio doesn’t apply.
Using Cheat Engine you can also force the Main Menu to play any music or dialog
if you want. Change the MUSIC value to any value between 00 - 55 (from the
start of MUSIC6.str to the end of DIALOG21.str, some options won’t play
anything) and wait in the Main Menu for a demo to appear. Skip that if you want
and the Main Menu should play the track you selected. This can cause some
laughter with dialogs playing repeatedly.
If one somehow locks mission 1 and completes mission 10, it actually unlocks
mission 1.
Using Gameshark is possible to see some messages during a mission. These are
“PRESS [X] TO RESTART” and “PRESS [TRIANGLE] TO EXIT”. Top function repeats
mission loading cycle. Bottom function crashes the game. In Japanese version
both buttons restart, also after waiting, the mission is restarted, other
versions crash when waited long enough. Also Japanese version won’t show the
text correctly, might be the RAM rearrangements.
In mission 3, when ACTION is selected no sound generates when Bond moves.
As the players may know, after activating Invincibility (and) Walk through
walls cheat, Invincibility deactivates after cutscenes. There are a few
exceptions to this rule, they are:
Mission 1 - Dish destroyed (You stay invincible)
Mission 1 - Through gate (Takes both effects)
Mission 6 - When the BMW hits walls, it takes damage no matter what up to a
certain point
Mission 7 - Arriving to the camp (Takes off Walk through walls)
Mission 7 - Boss intro (You stay invincible)
Mission 7 - Boss defeat (You stay invincible)
Mission 10 - Boss 1 intro (You stay invincible)
Disabling HUD disables cutscene letterboxing (imagine a movie in about 1.85:1,
which gets open matted to 1.33:1 so you see more stuff in top and bottom, that
kind of stuff) but few cutscenes lock the game, and some glitches may happen:
Missions with elevators - All elevators
Mission 2 - You see the jet take off start point instead of fade out when
turning
Mission 5 - Bartender scene
Mission 5 - Paris scene
Mission 8 - Carver is seen doing stuff
Mission 8 - Ending scene has interesting sight
Mission 9 - You can’t see the code you need to enter - good luck guessing it,
it’s possible
Mission 10 - Cutscene before fighting Carver
The point system is one interesting thing, as you get about 4000 points
“automatically”. I found out that it’s always 4190 in NTSC/U. In PAL/UK and
NTSC/J versions the number changes between missions and difficulties. NTSC/U
version makes it seem like a PAR time for all missions is 6:59 (this gives no
extra points neither takes away points if you hit that time).

-------------------
4: Genuine glitches
-------------------
These are genuine glitches that may happen on console or on your choice of
emulator.
Mission 1: Enemy may sometimes spawn inside the vehicle in the EXTRA LIFE area.
Mission 2: You can take a photo of the chopper through the objects you need to
destroy.
Mission 3: Bond can make a sound twice when being knocked out before the brief
loading.
Mission 3: An enemy may sometimes appear to a wrong place.
Mission 4: The red crouched enemy in the upper level next to the extra life
sometimes appears at ground level, usually after killing the blue crouched
enemy.
Mission 10: Enemies may spawn without their models and you see a floating gun.
(Freezes the game.)
Mission 10: After entering the yellow walled area, the 2nd guard which is
behind a barrel may not appear. If you turn around and stealth kill him, the
game freezes.
Missions 1 - 10: Sometimes when stealth killing, your gun fires a bullet.
Missions 5, 7, 9, 10: Bosses may break their regular moving patterns and enter
areas where you can’t go.
-----------------------------
5: Mission naming differences
-----------------------------
Missions have been named differently between MAIN MENU, LOADING SCREEN and
MISSION START.
MAIN MENU LOADING SCREEN MISSION START
Outpost, Russian Border Military Outpost Military Outpost
Arms Bazaar, Russian Border Arms Bazaar Arms Bazaar
Carver Media, Hamburg Carver Media, Hamburg Carver Media Party
Pressing Engagement Pressing Engagement Pressing Engagement
Hotel Atlantic, Hamburg Hotel Atlantic Hotel Atlantic
Convoy, Swiss Alps Convoy Terrorist Convoy
Ski Ridge, Hokkaido Ski Ridge Terrorist Camp
CMGN Tower, Saigon Carver Media, Saigon Carver Media Tower
Market District, Saigon Market District, Saigon Marketplace
Stealth Boat, Ha Long Bay Stealth Boat Stealth Boat
Don’t know how it would have been with Multiplayer and Devonshire, if they
would have been implemented into the game itself.
---------------------------------
6: Stuff with cutscenes and audio
---------------------------------
In level 10, after defeating Carver, the cutscene comes up. Hold the item
select button (Triangle = default) and keep holding it. After the cutscene
ends, the last sounds should come when selecting a weapon/item. After a few
seconds, a opening speech of the current level appears, unused line appears
(“Self destruct sequence initiated. T-Minus four minutes and counting”) showing
that the time limit to disable the missile and escaping was 4 minutes at some
point, after that you hear “Ha Long Bay”. Then the unused Tomorrow Never Dies
song appears (Tomorrow Never Dies (alternate)). A short while after that the
song from skiing parts and time limit sections appears. After that “Music – 17”
appears. After that, nothing comes up.
NOTE: This does not seem to work every time in the German version. French one
works with this.
In level 3, before meeting Paris, use Cheat Camera code (Select x2, Circle x2,
R2 x2), and then press the interact button (Circle = default) and the cutscene
plays but the you can control the view. After the end, freeze everything to
hear bartenders speech from level 5, unused line appears (“Go ahead, Mr. Bond.
Save your little friend. Carver’s already won. The launch is imminent.”)
proving that the last mission was different, after that you hear “Finally back
at the lab.” and then 2 tracks of boss music comes on for some reason.
In level 6, you can change Q’s garage by walking to the end of the level and
coming back. Also in level 6, in the PAUSE -> OPTIONS -> SFX TEST -> 50 there is
unused line from Q: “007, you’re going the wrong way.” which doesn’t even sound
like Q at all. The “007” sounds somewhat like “Dabil-ou-sevan”.
In level 10 go to the place where you complete the first objective. Activate
Cheat Camera (Select x2, Circle x2, R2 x2), and press Circle. The cutscene
plays. Then freeze everything (Select x2, Circle x2, Select x2, Triangle x2)
and after that you hear an unused line “Affirmative. Missile away.” meaning
that level 2 might have been different. After that you hear “Keep the target
painted.” and music from the somewhat middle of level 10 comes on.
In level 10 kill Stamper so Wai Lin appears with a script that happens and
enable Cheat Camera code (Select x2, Circle x2, R2 x2) and Objects move with
you code (Select x2, Circle x2, Select x2, Triangle x2) and press circle
button. Disable Objects move with you code. Wait for the dialog to start.
Enable Objects move with you code. Wait for the dialog to finish and wait a
short while. Disable the Objects move with you code. Wait a short while. (NOTE:
If the music starts that happen after the cutscenes, something went wrong.)
Then enable Objects move with you code. If done right, you will hear an unused
line “Self destruct sequence initiated. T-Minus two minutes and counting.” and
after that “Yes! That’s it.” and after that “Let’s go.” and after that the
music from MBRIEF’s and level 6 appears for some reason. After that music from
level 8 appears.
-----------------
7: Debug displays (UNDER CONSTRUCTION)
-----------------
Using a cheat code, the player can see some debugging information. The available
pages change depending on the selected mission.
Outdoor missions have 6 pages. 1st has things to do with framerate, 2nd about
objects, 3rd about particles, 4th about what’s drawn, 5th about camera and 6th
about player.
Indoor missions have 5 pages, 1st has things to do with framerate and player
position, 2nd about objects, 3rd about what’s drawn, 4th about particles and 5th
about camera.
Driving mission has otherwise the same things as outdoor missions, but once you
get in the car, the 4th page gets replaced with car debug information.

8: EXTRA ITEM GLITCH
--------------------
This section is about item duplication. We take a look at how it works.
------
Glitch
------
In levels 1, 2, 6 & 7 you can make more items appear by going out of bounds
while everything is frozen (Select x2, Circle x2, Select x2, Triangle x2). By
doing this, you can get 10 extra items in level 1, 15 extra items in level 2, 11
extra items in level 6 & 18 extra items in level 7. (Most gathered during the
making of the document.) If you want to duplicate a certain item, let’s say,
Extra Life items, collect all AMMO boxes, armors, ammo clips and med kits. You
get more duplicates when there are not other items taking space from them.
------------------
Duplicatable items
------------------
What you can duplicate are the following:
- Ammo clips
- Dropped weapons
- Med Kits
- Light Armors
- Heavy Armors
- Cases of Ammo
- Extra Lives
NOTE: Duplicated items don’t disappear with time, only if you leave them or turn
the camera away from them for too long.
-------------------------------
Maximum Extra Lives Walkthrough
-------------------------------
If using AGENT, you can get as much as 007 x 63, if 007, then it is one life
less, 007 x 62.
(Current extra life amounts: Level 1: 007x3, Level 2: 007x13, Level 3: 007x28,
Level 4: 007x29, Level 5: 007x30, Level 6: 007x31, Level 7: 007x42, Level 8:
007x60, Level 9: 007x61, Level 10: 007x62, End: 007x63.)
Strategies for getting many 007 icons:
Level 1: While going to the wooden crate that contains EXTRA LIFE, kill all
enemies and collect everything on the way there. Then when you are next to the
crate, freeze everything and go back to the starting point. When there, unfreeze
and destroy that crate. Now get your back against the wall so you look where you
would in the beginning. Enable walk through everything code and walk backwards
and you’ll notice that more icons appear. Collect them all. You should have 13
lives in this point if you are playing on Agent difficulty and plan to get as
much as possible. Now either input Mission Complete code or complete the level
normally without losing any lives.
Level 2: Since stuff like this requires cheats don’t bother with objectives.
Destroy everything, collect everything, kill everything. Now, face so that the
rear of the jet is in your right. Freeze everything and enable walk through
everything code and walk forward. When repeated enough, unfreeze and collect
them all. You should have 28 lives in this point if you are playing on Agent
difficulty and plan to get as much as possible. Now either input Mission
Complete code or complete the level normally without losing any lives.
Levels 3 – 5: Find that extra life and don’t die. Might as well enable walk
through everything, find the life, enable MISSION COMPLETE code.
Level 6: Just walk to the end of the level where the life is. Might want to
fasten the process with run faster code. Enable walk through everything code
and freeze everything, and strafe right. Repeat 10 times. Unfreeze and collect
them all. You should have 42 lives in this point if you are playing on Agent
difficulty and plan to get as much as possible. Now either input Mission
Complete code or complete the level normally without losing any lives.
Level 7: Ski down to the end (this might be tricky, freeze everything so you
won’t die. When done, kill everyone, collect all the stuff, destroy everything
you can. Then face so that your back is facing the hut and face the blue thingy
in front of the extra life. Then enable walk through everything code, and walk
through the wall in the front. When repeated enough times, unfreeze and collect
them all. You should have 60 lives in this point if you are playing on Agent
difficulty and plan to get as much as possible. Now either input Mission
Complete code or complete the level normally without losing any lives.
Levels 8 – 10: Find that extra life and don’t die. Might as well enable walk
through everything, find the life, enable MISSION COMPLETE code.
AFTER LEVEL 10: You should have 63 lives in this point if you are playing on
Agent difficulty and plan to get as much as possible.
-------------------------------------
Fictional Extra Life duplication Q&A:
-------------------------------------
Q: Can you do this where you want?
A: Only in level 1 you can do this by changing the location to the beginning I
think. Do this near the extra life itself, except in level 1, where it benefits
to be somewhere else.
Q: Can you get infinite lives?
A: No, you can’t.
Q: Why not?
A: You can’t take all the duplicates and then duplicate the original for some
reason. Nothing happens.
Q: Can you take those lives later?
A: No, you can’t. Keep them in camera or they disappear.
Q: What is the highest number of lives in total?
A: Read the whole thing, will you? It is revealed earlier in this document to
be 63 or 62, depending on your difficulty.
Q: Does this work in all levels?
A: No. Only those levels that are outside give you more lives. This has also
revealed before.
Q: How do you find out about this stuff?
A: I like to break games. In this case, I have been playing around with codes a
lot. All the stuff documented are accidents or experimenting with codes.
----------------------------------
Speaking of EXTRA LIFE thingies...
----------------------------------
There is a code which is described as infinite lives which gives 8001E0DA the
value of 0003 which forces the life counter to stay at 3. If we change that to
another value, let’s say 003F which is the 63 lives, after disabling the code
you can build more lives in the collection.
For some reason if you turn the value to 8000 or higher the life counter won’t
show a value and Mission Completed screen shows them as minus and a value.
Image example below has “-2” on it. When showing a minus number, it also gives
you the maximum amount of points, which is 2147483647.
If you manage to get more than 99 lives, the counter stops at 99, but the lives
still increase, as is shown on the other image. You can force your lives to
32767 at max with the lives code with a value of 7FFF. If the value is set
higher or you pick up an extra life, it goes to minus numbers.

9: Unused stuff
---------------
This section covers some unused content that can be found on the disc but is
unused in the game itself.
-------------
Unused audio:
-------------
Some unused lines can be found on the disc. They are as follows:
“Square, circle, triangle, x.” –Rather weird dialog found. Purpose unknown,
probably dialog intended to the end of Level 9.
“Self destruct sequence initiated. T-Minus two minutes and counting.” –This is
probably an early version of the last level’s countdown.
“Go ahead, Mr. Bond. Save your little friend. Carver’s already won. The launch
is imminent.” –Probably level 10 was going to be a lot different.
“Self destruct sequence initiated. T-Minus four minutes and counting.” –This is
probably another early version of the last level’s countdown.
“Affirmative. Missile away.” –This is probably intended in Arms Bazaar level.
“Wai Lin! Over here!” –No idea where this would go.
“Target is designated. Confirm.” –Unused line that probably fits in Military
Outpost level.
“Checkmate.” –No idea where this would go.
---------------------------------------------
Unused and interesting text / developer text:
---------------------------------------------
There is some unused and other interesting text in the files, with profanities
in error messages.
Mission 1:
“SKIPOLE” (Un-seen weapon name)
“BERRY”
Mission 2:
“OUT OF BOMBS” (When you run out of things you are never told you’re out of
ammunition, but... Bombs? What bombs exactly?)
“GOT ASSAULT RIFLE” (You start with this weapon.)
“GOT SNIPER RIFLE” (You start with this weapon.)
“SKI CAMERA IN NON SKI LEVEL”
Mission 3:
“partying child1” (Name for an object I think.)
Mission 4:
“GOT HEAVY ARMOR” (This mission contains only Light Armor.)
“GOT ASSAULT RIFLE” (You start with this weapon.)
Mission 5:
“OUT OF BOMBS” (This is seen in mission 2 file but it makes more sense here,
but you are never informed this way.)
Mission 6:
“it's locked”
Mission 7:
"SHITOSHI EXITDOOR” (I found this mildly amusing.)
Mission 3, Mission 4:
“no sesame”
Mission 3, Mission 4, Mission 8, Mission 9, Mission 10:
“OUT OF ORDER” (There is nothing out of order in these missions.)
Mission 3, Mission 5, Mission 8, Mission 9:
“USING KEY...” (There is nothing to use key in these missions. Is seen in some
missions through a cheat code.)
Mission 5, Mission 9:
“UNLOCKED DOOR” (There is no door that informs that in these missions.)
All missions:
“PHONE FAIL!”
“SHALL B. MY SON!”
“PRESS [ TO RESTART” (“[“ is CROSS button) (String 1 of the screen you never
see.)
“PRESS ^ TO EXIT” (“^” is TRIANGLE button) (String 2 of the screen you never
see.)
“Dummy print in Wait.”
“YO, BAD WEAPON TYPE”
“OUT OF BULLETS” (You can run out of bullets but this is never shown.)
“TURN AROUND JAMES”
“GOT HEALTH FULL” (You can restore health but when full this is never shown.)
“Don McDermot” (This seems to be a name of one of the developers of the game in
misspelled form. There is graphic artist named Don McDermott in the credits.)
Other interesting text:
“sys.c,v 1.140 1998/01/12 07:52:27”
“intr.c,v 1.75 1997/02/07 09:00:36”
“bios.c,v 1.86 1997/03/28 07:42:42”
-----------------------
10: Folder/Level/MBRIEF
-----------------------
L01 = L07 - Ski Ridge = MBRIEF06
L02 = L08 - Carver Media Group Network Tower = MBRIEF08
L03 = L03 - Carver Media Group Network Party = MBRIEF03
L04 = Doesn’t exist – If one believes the data in the disc this is multiplayer
as multiplayer is in folder L04 and the images that are used as loading screens
for levels use the folder numbers in their names.
L05 = L01 - Military Outpost = MBRIEF01
L06 = Doesn’t exist – Dropped Devonshire mission. (Scuba diving in Tomorrow
Never Dies: The Mission Continues transferred to Devonshire stage perhaps?)
L07 = L05 - Hotel Atlantic = MBRIEF04
L08 = L10 - Stealth Boat = MBRIEF10
L09 = L09 - Market District = MBRIEF09
L10 = L02 - Arms Bazaar = MBRIEF02
L11 = L04 - Pressing Engagement = MBRIEF11
L12 = L06 - Convoy = MBRIEF05
This is saying that we start with level 5, then proceed to level 10, then level
3, then level 11, then level 7, then level 12, then finally to level 1, then
level 2, then level 9, and finally level 8 and game complete. We never go to
levels 4 and 6.
In Japanese version, MBRIEFs are seen as they should be, from 1 to 10. As I
don’t know how to see inside .bin and .cue files and I don’t have the Japanese
disc, I can’t say anything about the order of those folders there.
Interesting thing to note is that level 4’s MBRIEF is named MBRIEF11 as the
level folder is L11. Also interesting is that MBRIEFs numbered 4-6 are in
missions 5-7.
MBRIEFs go from 1 to 3, jump to 11, then from 4 to 6, jump over 7 and because
of that go from 8 to 10.

11: Complete list of all Cheat Codes found so far

These codes can be done during anytime in menus, or in pause screen. In Japanese
version, pause screen codes are impossible to perform, it seems. The menu codes
can be enabled, using some tricky button pushing. In any codes that need Up,

If anyone finds out what these codes do, share that information, thank you. I

Additional information:
* = Needs to be done again after mission, also you start with default lives for
the selected difficulty, which is 3 for AGENT and 2 for 007
**= Some controls: D-PAD to move around, Cross widens down, Circle widens
right, Square shrinks left, Triangle shrinks up, L1 makes things move faster,
SELECT makes things move bit by bit
*** = Invincibility turns off after almost every cutscene, ability to go through
everything stays, annoying
**** = Turns off after almost every cutscene, annoying
***** = Only after R1 R1 R1 is activated
****** = With Walk through walls code more effective
******* = Some controls: D-PAD to look around, Cross moves down, Triangle moves
up, Square freezes and unfreezes, L1 moves backwards, R1 moves forward, L2
strafes left, R2 strafes right, SELECT toggles INTERPOLATE between 0 and 1
******** = Show more and ultimately remove it by doing the code multiple times
********* = Except in Convoy (driving)
********** = There is a game file on the disc that tells you this
*********** = Some controls: Square changes type (CYCLE: POS X - POS Y - POS Z -
ROT X - ROT Y - ROT Z), D-PAD Up and Down change LUP GAIN, Cross and Triangle
change RUP DAMP
************ = Only in outdoor levels
************* = This has something to do with the thing below
************** = Use Infrared scope to get the effect to work in mission 6
There may be something undiscovered, as the files in the game hint that there
may be something else. Direct quotes from PARAM08.txt:
“//hack cheat to do disarm nis w/o key”
“//hack cheat to trigger wailin”
“//hack cheat to allow ending nis”
SHELL.EXE has this information to say about “SHELL POS CODE”:
“shell pos cheat %d x,y = DPAD h = triangle, X w = square, circle hold
select for no auto-repeat hold L1 for fast movement R1 to print values cheat
rect: x=%d y=%d w=%d h=%d sprite x=%d sprite y=%d”
All mission files have this to say:
“Edit Background R = %d G = %d B = %d EDIT TERRAIN BRIGHTNESS MIN = %d MAX
= %d EDIT FOGGING PARAMETERS CLEAR = %d MID = %d MAX = %d”
If one uses an emulator with console output enabled, one can see that when you
activate “Shell position” code, the console outputs the following:
“shell pos cheat 1
x,y = DPAD
h = triangle, X
w = square, circle
hold select for no auto-repeat
hold L1 for fast movement
R1 to print values”
And when you print the values, console outputs similar to the following:
“ cheat rect: x=0 y=0 w=40 h=40 sprite x=-320 sprite y=-
120”
And finally, when you disable the code, the console outputs the following:
“shell pos cheat 0”
When you enable “All weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med kits” the console outputs
“max weapons”.
When you enable “Show level borders” the console outputs “ draw contour”.
When you enable “Graphics Optimization” the console outputs “gOptimize2 = 1” and
when you disable it the console outputs “gOptimize2 = 0”. This also outputs
“wireframe sopnum = X” where X is 0, 1 or 2 when certain factors are met and
Highlight object you shoot is active.
When you enable “Console output” cheat depending on the level the console
outputs “InstSmop #X type=10: none left” where X is changing value or it outputs
“spit: t=X,r=Y,gl=Z,i=A” where X, Y, Z & A are changing values.
Things according to my help source:
Things about “//hack cheat to trigger wailin”, which I see as a thing to some
devs to work, as to hack a cheat which does something. Here’s what my help
source says: “The "//hack cheat to trigger wailin" seems to be a specific area
of the final level. I changed the X/Z coordinates on the start of the level
(NIS room door) to those in the "//hack cheat to trigger wailin". The level
started outside of Wai Lin's cell, although she was not in there. As the
PARAM08 file later not, "//stamper (normally must die for wailin to be in
jail)". Using the ethereal cheat to go back two rooms, I found Wai Lin in place
of Stamper in the boss fight room. So it seems that characters are loaded by
various trigger areas throuhgout the level. I could try to find a hack for the
coordinates, which might have a simialr effect to the hack/cheat mentioned.”
Things about GOPT2 = 1, which is a code of sorts. My help came up with the
following: “I compared memory dumps before and after doing the GOPT2 code on
the first level. The main difference was that the file name \L05\GN05AF11.GUY
(obviously one of the enemies) was replaced by gOptimize2 = 1. I had a look
further into the level, but couldn't see any other changes to the enemies. The
TIM file associated with this enemy was still loaded, though, so it may be a
graphical optimisation as the name suggests, where the game does not keep
loading the same model file. Just before NULL and the individual character file
names, there were two instances of 1 being changed to 2.”

The codes shown are “Maximum health”, “Minimum health”, “Invincibility & Walk
through everything", “Mission Complete”, “Invincibility”, “Invisible HUD”, “All
weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med kits”, “Access all missions” and “Unlock all
movies”.
German Prima’s Official Strategy Guide contains cheats in the very end of the
guide. These differ from the English language guide. The codes shown are
“HEILUNG” (“HEALING”), “TODESGRENZE” (“DEATH LIMIT”), “ALLE WAFFEN” (“ALL
WEAPONS”), “MISSION BEENDET” (“MISSION COMPLETE”), “ÄTHERISCH” (“ETHEREAL”),
“UNVERWUNDBERKEIT” (“INVULNERABILITY”), “GESCHWINDIKEIT” (“SPEED”), “ANZEIGE”
(“DISPLAY”), “VERRÜCKTE KAMERA” (“CRAZY CAMERA”, CHEAT CAMERA is in question
here), “SCHWARZER HIMMEL” (“BLACK SKY”, though the actual function is “change
sky”), “ALLE MISSIONEN” (“ALL MISSIONS”) and “ALLE FILMSEQUENZEN” (“ALL FILM
SEQUENCES”).
ANZEIGE is listed as a non-functional code (“RIGHT, RIGHT, R1, R1”).
PlayZone Magazin starting from issue 19 or earlier has cheats for this game in
the archive of codes presented. The codes shown are “Access all missions”,
“Unlock all movies”, “Invincibility”, “All weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med
kits”, “Invincibility & Walk through everything”, “Mission Complete”, “All
walls are invisible”, “Debug information” and “Remove debug information
instantly”.
This information contains some mistakes. “Invincibility” is titled as “50 Med-
Packs”*. “All weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med kits” is titled as “Alle
Waffen, volle Munition”**. “Invincibility & Walk through everything” is titled
as “Unsichtbarkeit”. “All walls are invisible” is titled as “Durch Wände
sehen”.
Also “Debug information” and “Remove debug information instantly” codes have
wrong information. The codes for them are “Select x2, Circle x2, L2, R2” and
“Select x2, Circle x2, R2, L2”, the section claims them to be “Select x2,
Circle x2, L2, R2, L2” and “Select x2, Circle x2, R2, L2, R2”, which is a
common mistake seeing in websites that offer cheats.
* = “50 Med-Packs” = “50 med kits”
** = “Alle Waffen, volle Munition” = “All weapons, full ammunition”
*** = “Unsichtbarkeit” = “Invisibility”
**** = “Durch Wände sehen” = See through walls”
PlayStation Underground Volume 4 Issue 2 has 5 cheat codes shown on Disc 2
after entering a code on the menu. The code is “R2 L2 L2 R2”. The shown codes
are “All weapons, 2 50 round clips, 50 med kits”, “Objects and enemies move
with you”, “Access all missions”, "Invincibility & Walk through everything” and
“Run faster”.

13: Game Credit differences
---------------------------
When comparing CREDITS between the credit sequence of the game (TNDCRED1.str)
to the manual, there are differences. One of them being that music credits are
missing from the manual. Second is that Electronic Arts Distribution credits
are missing from the manual.
Difference 1:
While the credit video says the following:
“Game Programmers”
Manual says this:
“Programmers”.
Difference 2:
While the credit video says the following:
“Game Designers
Will Botti
Daryl Kimoto”
Manual says this:
“Game Design: Will Botti, Daryl Kimoto, Michael Guttentag, Flint Dille”.
Difference 3:
While the credit video says the following:
“Level Designers”
Manual says this:
“Level Design”.
Difference 4:
While the credit video says the following:
“Video/Audio Editing”
Manual says this:
“Audio/Video Editing”.
Difference 5:
While the credit video says the following about the names of Additional Art
section:
“Michael Field” & “Narry Kahng Cinelli”
Manual says this in the same section:
“Mike Field” & “Narry Khang”.
Difference 6:
While the credit video says the following in Special Thanks section:
“Phil Harrison
Tina Kowalewski
Maria Hernandez”
Manual says this in the same section:
“Phil Harrison, Tina Kowalewski”.
Difference 7:
While the credit video says:
“MGM Game Designers
Michael Guttentag
Flint Dille”
Manual says nothing in that section, seems like Game Programmers and MGM Game
Programmers are under Programmers in the manual.
Difference 8:
While the credit video says:
“Quality Assurance Team
Pax Adair
Alex Becerra
Clay Bosick
David Paul Guzman
Nathan Miller
Derek Parsons
Michael Patino
Carlo Serrano”
Manual drops out “David Paul Guzman” and “Derek Parsons”.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
14: Things that are different in the instruction manual, pictures, videos, the
works
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Manual:
As mentioned before, there is one picture that shows different Mission Select
screen, each row has 4 levels, total of 12. Last two image slots are grey.
SMG 45 has 40 round clips instead of 30 round clips mentioned in the manual.
Could be a simple mistake, but it is in the translations too. (The information
in the manual usually is up to date when printed, but there might be small
changes made to the game after printing.)
The MISSION COMPLETED status screen showed up the name of the level in the
manual as “MILITARY OUTPOST” when the final one shows “OUTPOST, RUSSIAN
BORDER”.
The picture of Mission Select shows a different picture in levels 3 & 4.
MISSION COMPLETED has interesting looking score (TOTAL SCORE: 34524). It was
different in early phases, as in the final game you can get scores that only
end with 0. If we use the point system used in the final game, we end up with
11060 points. Then, when added that mysterious 4000 points you always seem to
have, we get about 15000 points.
Mission selection:
Mission 2 seems to have the same version on the mission selection screen that
is also on the loading screen, with a different angle, which shows a big object
on the right, next to the tower.
Mission 4 shows the office and shows something white next to the glass table.
Mission 5 has different looking wall color on the bar area, also is brighter.
It is worth noticing that the trailer of this game is almost 100% beta footage:
Life meter was different and it was on the up-right corner and the font was
different. Mission start text was on the left. Arms Bazaar originally had a
time limit bigger than 2 minutes after opening the gate. Level 2 had a
different truck design. Also different start point. Med kits had a different
appearance. Clips looked pretty much like the ones in The World Is Not Enough.
All collectible items rotated. Convoy stage had a time limit that would increase
after every destroyed vehicle, also different messages like "STAGE 3 COMPLETE".
Item icons were different or the trailer shows unused items. At least one of
these items is in VRAM in every level. Med kits and ammo packs looked different.
All the information having blue box and yellow text was in up-left corner. The
cutscene dialog was text (and speech?). Bond is seen flying
the jet in level 2.
The small towers in level 1 were different. Satoshi Isagura boss area was
different. Enemies and guns sounded different, also different item pickup sound.
According to some images:
The medkit icon was inverted. Those Jeeps in level 6 looked different, also
different looking enemies. Different looking enemies and very beginning had
different item placement in level 1. Area where 1st chopper takes off had a
barrel and a wooden box. Different items and stationary weaponry in level 2,
also enemy design looks different. Different layout of mission 2 is apparent.
Bond seemed to have a weapon which was cut. Jet was in different position or
you could control it. Apparently, icons for GL-40, SKIPOLE, 8.62 MM and ACTION
looked different. In level 10, door design was different. Bond turned around
during the cutscene where he contacts M. Main menu said “Single Player” at the
top right and looked different, lacked a Continue option and under the small
image there was text “SINGLE PLAYER”. Select Mission had text on the right and
featured different screen with 12 missions. Mission name was on bigger font and
without any boxes. The HUD text color was yellow? There apparently was a tree
next to the door you enter that leads to tunnel leading to Isagura boss fight
in level 7. Truck with a missile on it appeared in different location in level
2. There also apparently were black trucks and (explosive?) barrels. Camera
icon looked a bit different. Crosshair was different. Item placement was
different on level 7 in the walking section before the gate. After the 1st
guard tower, there was apparently a wooden box to accompany a barrel. Sniper’s
crosshair was a lot different and truck drove in mission 1? Building with 1st
guard with sniper was angled differently. Assault Rifle was called AK. Also,
the ammo counter was somewhat more in the right at some point. RELOAD was once
a gadget. Mission 5 had a door on the left side when coming down the staircase
which leads to the room with Paris. Mission 7 had tent-like objects that had
boxes in them. Cutscene with text box containing (X) symbol. Mission
description text in the start was aligned left and was white. Ammo display had
//, probably to indicate that no bullets was in reserve. The party scene was
once different, Carver could be seen beside Paris. Infrared showed enemies
normally. HUD would get glitchy sometimes during skiing. Apparently, some very
early images show us levels that resemble very closely levels 7, 1 & 6. If one
believes them images, the life thingy was at the top centre of the screen. Also
some images resembling what…? Early level 5 with different design. Ammo counter
was once yellow with “alarm clock” font. Life bar was a gunbarrel. Assault
Rifle seemed to have different crosshair with free aim. You had a rocket gadget
with ski sections. Many images show Bond with a weapon that was cut. Carver’s
party was in a different looking place, and had a lobby. Mission 2 once had
something that seems like a triangle shaped door with a switch. (Last one can be
found on a pirate Russian back cover.)
According to early gameplay:
Also seen in loading screen for mission 2, object next to the control tower,
which did hold armor behind it. First enemy in mission 3 was further, next to
the crates in the area where two enemies play poker.
According to PRE-E3 interview:
Bond was supposed to have a key copier and a cell phone. Wai Lin was supposed to
have different weapons? OK, that RL-66 we got was a bit different. The game was
supposed to have both, text boxes and voices.
According to E3 and other pre-release footage:
Some sort of a bar in the HUD? Also Bond with glasses and different mission 1.
Bond could shoot out of his vehicle with a weapon? Same with enemies. Different
camera angles for many scenes. Different briefing interface. Barrels explode
differently. Enemies dodged you differently. One brief scene had a faster Bond?
According to Official Website:
Image section shows “GOT X AK ROUNDS”.
Storyboards for Arms Bazaar show that Opening text used to be in a text box,
with text in this mission being “TERRORIST ARMS BAZAAR - HIMMALAYAN MTNS”.
Apparently “INFILTRATE SECURED AREA” was going to be an objective 1 for that
mission. At times the camera was planned to do things while the game tells you
what to do, like “YOUR NEXT OBJECTIVE IS TO PHOTOGRAPH PRIMARY MILITARY ARMS”.
“Jet” is called “MIG” and warhead is called “MISSILE”. Sequence with plane
taking off was planned.
Storyboards for Carver Media Party show that the mission is referred as “Media
Tower”. Opening text used to be “CARVER MEDIA TOWER, 2100 HOURS” while showing
technical machinery with a guard using moving camera. Bond was planned to use a
phone in the mission.
Storyboards for Stealth Boat shot that the mission is referred as “Stealth”.
Final room with Carver had more objects in it.
Opening video (TNDTRAIL.str)
Level 1: The structure that has a sniper is flipped. Bond using something,
probably a walkie-talkie.
Level 6: Bond blowing up an unknown object using BMW 750iL:s weapon.
Level 9: 1. While fighting the helicopter, it flies in the middle and there is
enemies. 2. Shows a version, which is darker than the final one. 3. Three
enemies behind covers, a civilian and a box. The box is in a different place.
4. During the fight with the helicopter, there are enemies at the same time. 5.
Darker than the final product.
Level 10: Darker than the final product.
Ending video (ENDSTE.str)
Level 1: Scope of SNIPER RIFLE is different.
Level 2: Enemy and the object placement are different.
Level 3: 1. After breaking the mirror, the table contains AMMO box instead of
PP7. 2. Darker than the final.
Level 5: 1. Different angle in Kaufman cutscene, also an enemy running around.
2. Darker than the final.
Level 6: 1. The main car is not the last one to destroy. 2. You can roll out of
the car. 3. Different object placement (unused car can be seen in the right).
4. In the side of Q’s garage are some barrels.
Level 7: Contains yellow thing at the area before the boss.
Level 8: 1. Bond and Wai Lin running from Carver’s building together and the
sky is bright. 2. Darker than the final.
Level 9: Darker than the final.
Level 10: Darker than the final.

Official U.K. PlayStation Magazine Demo Disc 56 and 94 have Tomorrow Never Dies
save file in their Downloads -section. It gives away no description, but after
loading it, we see that all missions are unlocked. For some reason it crashed on
ePSXe 1.9.0 if after booting the game and loading the save file and either going
to Options or not going to Options. If Options was visited, the emulator would
throw an error message at the start of mission 1. If Options was not visited,
the emulator would throw an error message at the menu after quitting the
mission selecting CONTINUE.

The file can be found on the directory “SCED_01830/POCKET/SAVES/TNDIES.DAT” and
it “downloads” to your Memory Card.
The save file has the name of “Tomorrow Never Dies” on the menu and on the
header when it’s selected.
The game was played through on Agent difficulty. This was evident because of 2
things. 1: ENDSTE missing from the MOV selection of Options. 2: 007 x 3 at the
1st mission.
The player had following lives at the beginning of each mission:
Mission 1: 007 x 3
Mission 2: 007 x 1
Mission 3: 007 x 2
Mission 4: 007 x 1
Mission 5: 007 x 0

Mission 7: 007 x 0
Mission 8: 007 x 1
Mission 9: 007 x 1
Mission 10: 007 x 0
When calculated, number of lives lost is at least 6 when arriving to mission
10, could be as high as 12.
The player had mostly default settings, only change was that GHOST MODE was
turned OFF.

Le CD De PlayStation Magazine 43 has a save file for Demain Ne Meurt Jamais in
its Downloads -section. It gives away a faulty description “acces a tous les

nine missions are unlocked. The same crashing happened with this one for some
reason.

The file can be found on the directory “SCED_02647/POCKET/SAVES/TMD.DAT” and it
“downloads” to your Memory Card.
The save file has a name of “DNMJ” on the menu and “Demain Ne Meurt Jamais” on
the header when it’s selected.
The game was played in 007 difficulty. This was evident because of 007 x 2 at
the 1st mission.
The player had following lives at the beginning of each available mission:
Mission 1: 2
Mission 2: 2
Mission 3: 3
Mission 4: 4
Mission 5: 5
Mission 6: 6
Mission 7: 5

17: PlayStation Fun Magazin 02/2000
-----------------------------------
PlayStation Fun Magazin issue 02/2000 has a video about Tomorrow Never Dies on
it. It is the intro of the game (MGMLOGO, BLACKOPS, TTSLOGO and TNDTRAIL)
seemingly in one continuous FMV, instead of four FMV's - but it’s not handled
like in the final game.
----------------------------
18: PlayStation Zone Magazin
----------------------------
Volumes 9 (08/1999), 10 (09/1999) & 11 (10/1999) have images from the early
stage of this game in WORK IN PROGRESS section. Stuff shown: Bond diving,
driving segment, shooting with early life bar and HUD, early mission 2, early
mission 1, more early mission 1, even more early mission 1 with different
crosshair, skiing with an unused gadget, more early mission 2, early mission 7,
jet taking off in mission 2 with different layout of the area, more early
mission 2, more early mission 1 (ski section), more early mission 7 (ski
section), more early mission 2 and early medical bag in action in mission 7.
Volume 13 (12/1999) has images in Demnächst erthältlich section. Stuff shown
not mentioned already: Early mission 1 opening area. Volume 15 (02/2000) has
images in HIT-TIPP section. Stuff shown not mentioned already: More early
mission 1 with ghost mode in action. Some images are shown in multiple discs.
Volumes 12 (11/1999) and 14 (01/2000) probably have something, but I haven’t
gotten my hands to them.
------------------------------
19: Strategy Guide differences
------------------------------
We take a look at a few Strategy Guides for the game. Prima’s Official Strategy
Guide, which also comes with a poster, but me used copy didn’t have that. It was
located between pages 48 and 49. We also take a look at the Toy’s ‘R’ Us
version, which has exclusive things on it, but again, it didn’t come with the
damn poster. Finally we have an unofficial Solution from Paragon Publishing.
---------------------------------------------
Differences - Prima’s Official Strategy Guide
---------------------------------------------
The guide has following disclaimer: “Prima Publishing has made every effort to
determine that the information contained in this book is accurate.” though
despite that there are some errors. Though those detailed maps include also
lots of errors, there are enemy placement errors, and that MEDKIT is shown as
LIGHT ARMOR. Few things in information and images tell the reader that they
used near final copy.
Screenshot of level 1 makes it seem like there is 2 wooden boxes at the
beginning instead of just 1.
In level 2 there is something seen exploding next to other of those big trucks.
Also in level 2 there is 2 fuel tanks seen near the obstacle where the enemy
holding cockpit key is hiding.
In level 3, it is mentioned that if alarm is raised in process of getting the
key to the elevator, there might be more guards. That’s not the case in final
version. (Final = Released version)
In level 5 things get interesting. After defeating Dr. Kaufman we are supposed
to head upstairs but there is a 2nd stairway? Going through the door in the
kitchen reveals nothing more than a medkit (the mission map also says this) but
the information on the guide says here is a small, curved staircase.
In level 9 the guide suggests to take out guards if you see them during the
helicopter fight.
Objectives have a few issues:
Mission 2 lists “ESCAPE IN FIGHTER JET” as an objective. This is something you
do, but not an objective.
Mission 8 has “DESTROY WEAPONS CRATES” which could be a typo, since the
objective is “DESTROY WEAPON CRATES”.
Mission 9 lists “ACQUIRE RL66 ROCKET LAUNCHER” as an objective, though in-game
the objective is “ACQUIRE RL66”.
Mission 10 is missing the objective “ESCAPE IN TIME”.
Cheat section of the guide tells you that:
You can input a code to get MAXIMUM WEAPONS, which is described as you get all
weapon of current mission, not all weapons of the game. While the name is
misleading the guide won’t tell that you also get 50 MEDKITs and one 50 round
clip and 50 rounds in reserve which are used with normal sized clips.
ACCESS ALL MISSIONS does what it says, but it only works while unlocked the
CONTINUE option? Actually, it works at any time, an option selectable or not.
Also you need to hold L1 while selecting a mission? What for? Maybe in some
earlier version, but all you need to do is input the code, select a mission
with D-pad, then either START or CROSS button.
SEE ALL MOVIES lets you do that but the guide says that you normally get this
by completing the game on 007 difficulty. This can be seen in many ways as the
game tells you that “YOU CAN NOW WATCH ALL MOVIES FROM THE OPTIONS SCREEN” in
both AGENT and 007 difficulties, though you can watch any unlocked movie from
OPTIONS at any time. Who knows what the editor had in his mind.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Prima's Official Strategy Guide - Normal version versus Toys 'R' Us version
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Front cover says “[TOYS ‘R’ US LOGO] Exclusive Weapon Card Inside!” instead of
“Detailed Mission Maps!”.
Back cover has different barcodes and stuff.
Inside pages are all the same (yes, even the ISBN seen at inside side of the
cover page). Between the back cover and the last pages, there’s a weapon card.
It contains more details about weapons, gadgets and items.
------------------------------------------------------
Prima's Official Strategy Guide - Regional Differences
------------------------------------------------------
German version has different Electronic Arts logo on the cover, drops “Detailed
Mission Maps!” statement and says “Komplett in Farbe” (“Complete in color”).
Also arrangement of the image is different. No author mentioned on the cover.
The spine says “KOMPLETT IN FARBE” instead of “COMPLETE MISSION WALKTHROUGHS!”,
also the text goes up from bottom instead of going down from up. Back cover has
different gameplay images, and different text layout in the part where is said
“...sind SIE bereit für diese MISSION?” (“...are YOU ready for this MISSION?”)
instead of “Will you live to see tomorrow?”. Some back cover points are
different: “Detailed mission maps of every level” is now “Detaillierte Karten”
(“Detailed maps”), “Comprehensive weapons and gadgets list” is now “Beschrebung
der Waffen und des 007-Spezial-Equipments” (“Descriptions of weapons and 007-
Special-Equipments”), “Stealthy spy strategies” is now “Ausführliche Tips und
Tricks “ (“Detailed tips and tricks”), “Complete walkthroughs of every level”
is now “Umfassende Wegbeschreibungen durch alle Missionen” (“Comprehensive
directions through all missions”), “All hostile forces and adversaries
uncovered” and “Top secret mission objectives revealed” won’t exist, they are
replaced by “Fundorte aller Extra-leben, Medipacks und Panzerungen” (“Locations
of all extra-lives, Med kits and armor”) and “Komplette Cheat-Liste” (“Complete
cheat list”). Website addresses “www.tndgames.com” and “www.jamesbond.com” are
removed.
The inside pages are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT, as this is not a translation. The
idea is the same, things are shown, explained and there’s walkthroughs and
different cheat codes! Though the list is far from complete. Though it taught
me a new cheat code!
Image errors:
Mission 4: Image shows player getting ammunition with a text “ERHALTEN X
MUNITION” but final game says “X MUNITION ERHALTEN”.
Mission 6: Image showing the main menu mission selection with the current
mission shows mission 5.
Mission 6: Image shows mission name at the mission start, spelled “TERROTISTEN-
KONVOI”, this was fixed as “TERRORISTEN-KONVOI”.
Mission 6: Image shows player getting a rocket with a text “ERHALTEN 1 RAKETE”
but final game says “1 RAKETE ENHALTEN”.
Mission 10: Image shows a text “ÛERTRAGUNG ABGESCHLOSSEN” but this seems to be a
typo, final game says “ÛBERTRAGUNG ABGESCHLOSSEN”.
Weapon information section says “Diese Waffe werden Sie in allen Missionen bei
sich tragen.” (“You will carry this weapon in all missions.”) about PK7.
Incorrect as you have PK9 in mission 10.
Mission errors:
Mission 2: “SCUD FOTOGRAFIEREN” is “SCUD-Rakete fotografieren!” and “Mit
Düsenjet entkommen!” is added.
Mission 3: “STROM UNTERBRECHEN” is “Energieversongung unterbrechen!”.
Mission 4: “GUPTAS AKTENTASCHE SUCHEN” is “Guptas Aktentasche finden!” and “AUS
GEBÄUDE ENTFLIEHEN” is “Aus Gebäude fliehen!”.
Mission 5: “FAHRSTUHL AKTIVIEREN” is “Aufzug aktivieren!” and “AUS HOTEL
ENTKOMMEN” is “Aus dem Hotel fliehen!”.
Mission 6: “VERABREDUNG MIT Q” is “Treffen mit Q!”.
Mission 7: “AUF SKIERN IN CAMP EINDRINGEN” is “Auf Skiern ins Camp eindringen!”
and “ISAGURA VERNICHTEN” is “Isagura eliminieren!”.
Mission 8: “ZWEI STOCKWERKE ABWÄRTS” is “Zwei Stockwerke abwärts fahren!” and
“AUS GEBÄUDE ENTKOMMEN” is “Aus dem Gebäude entkommen!”.
Mission 9: “RL 66 BESORGEN” is AL 66 BESORGEN” (could be a typo) and “SO WENIG
ZIVILE OPFER WIE MÖGLICH” is Möglichst wenige Zivilisten töten!”
Mission 10: “WAI LIN RETTEN” is “Wai Lin befreien!” and “RECHTZEITIG ENTKOMMEN”
is missing.
Mission 9 constantly refers “RL-66” as “AL-66”, which is odd considering the
correct spelling in the weapon overview section.
Mission 9 has a hint that says that if you wait at the doorway leading to the
boss with RL-66, 2 or 3 enemies come to you and another hint that says that
there’s enemies in the area you fight with the helicopter.
Mission 10 has the map for mission 8.
Different cheat list is present in the end.
------------------------------------------------------------
Differences - Tomorrow Never Dies - Complete Mapped Solution
------------------------------------------------------------
The book is apparently titled “Tomorrow Never Dies” but also contains solutions
to Medal of Honor and Spyro 2. What’s amusing is that the first 2 pages are
empty, next two have the usual book jargon, Tomorrow Never Dies takes the next
75 pages, Medal of Honor taking the next 76 pages and finally, Spyro 2 taking
the last 48 pages.
The book has a following amusing disclaimer: “While every effort had been made
to ensure that information contained in Tomorrow Never Dies is accurate, Paragon
Publishing Ltd makes no warranty, either expressed or implied, as to its
quality, performance, merchantability or fitness for any purpose. It is the
responsibility solely of the purchaser to determine the suitability of this book
for whatever purpose. Due to the dynamic nature of leisure software, Paragon
Publishing Ltd cannot guarantee that game cheats, hints & tips or playing
solutions will work on all versions of a game.” Then we see another amusing
disclaimer: “Tomorrow Never Dies is published by Paragon Publishing Ltd, an
independent publishing company. This book is not published, authorized by,
endorsed or associated in any way with Electronic Arts, SCEE, or any associate
or affiliate company. This book is not and should not be confused with any
publication that is printed and distributed by Electronic Arts, SCEE, or any
associate of affiliate company. PlayStation® and its characters are trademarks
of Sony.” The scary back cover has a thing saying “Not to be sold separately”.
I want to say this at this point, them maps and images are somewhat difficult to
read, as everything is B&W, and them maps use different shades of grey, making
them a pain. Also some items sometimes are claimed to be different and sometimes
outside the playable area. (What.)
First off with the Weapons we have our first mistake. PK7 is called both
“PISTOL” and “PPK”. It’s said to have a “15 round clip” which is not true, even
in images one can see the right value, 16. SMG 45 is called “.45 FULL AUTO”.
What is in-game referred to as “STK. MINE” is called “MINE LAUNCHER”. GL 40 is
called “GRENADE LAUNCHER”. RL 66 is called “BAZOOKA”.
Mission errors:
Mission 5: Boss takes 100 hits. No way. Each hit usually takes at least 2 units
away. Also Paris dies after only one hit? No, she takes three hits.
Mission 7: Boss takes 100 hits. Riight. Not an error per se, but the guide
recommends Auto 9MM for the boss. That’s the WORST weapon to use against him.
Mission 8: The room with the 2 weapon crates has them MEDKITs on the left side.
In fact, they’re on the right side. Also after you get the DATA DISK, a secret
door opens. What.
Mission 9: Those LIGHT ARMORs are on the left side. Again, they’re on the right
side. Again they mention that the boss takes 100 hits to kill. Nope. They
mention a headshot takes 10 damage. It actually takes 25 damage. During this
mission is a TOP TIP that says “GO INTO SNIPER MODE USING THE R1 BUTTON, THEN
PRESS L TO ZERO IN ON ANY ENEMIES.” but what does it mean? With those chaingun
things, they tell you that you can look at them with CIRCLE button. You can’t.
Also during the helicopter boss fight they tell you to press R1 to crouch. L1
does it.
Mission 10: Blasting boxes takes Stamper on the blast. Nope.
------------------------
20: Regional differences
------------------------
In this section we cover regional differences.
------------------------------------------------------
Between Scandinavian Black Label and Platinum versions
------------------------------------------------------
As you may or may not know, games get released and if they sell enough, they
get Platinum versions (Greatest Hits for you US people) which are ugly as hell.
I originally got hold of the Platinum copy of this game, later managed to track
the original release. Now, these are not UK copies, except for the disc, which
is the same. As I live in Scandinavia, there’s some extra stuff in the box.
Some differences between these releases follow. Disc content size is not it,
it’s the same.
Obviously some black areas are now grey and the disc label is changed.
Back side of the front cover advertises the Analog Dual Shock™ Controller
(analog stick is bad with this game) on the original, but not in the Platinum
copy.
Cover features one of the old Electronic Arts logos on the left and Metro
Goldwyn Mayer Interactive logo on the right, Platinum copy changes the location
of these to the right, but changes the Electronic Arts logo to EA Games logo,
also to the cover label the ELSPA 15+ logo is added and position of “™” in the
logo is different.
Back cover has internet addresses, legal text and the Electronic Arts logo at
the bottom, Platinum copy removes the legal text and adds info about manual
languages and changes the Electronic Arts logo to EA Games logo. Also on the
right side of different ELSPA thingy. On the right side is different legal
text.
The back side has the text in order of Danish, Finnish, Norwegian and Swedish
(no English for some reason), the Platinum copy changes the order to Swedish,
Finnish, Norwegian and Danish. Finnish and Norwegian have a different alignment
between versions, and the Danish was re-translated for a certain reason.
Original Danish:
“Flere spil i et! 3D-skydning, kørsel og skiløb.
Klassiske Bond ting og våben - Lasere I manchetknapperne, Infrarøde Kameraer,
og meget mere!
Følg historien med filmsekvenser fra filmen.“
Platinum Danish:
“Flere spil i et! Skydning, kørsel og skiløb I tredjepersons action.
Klassiske Bond våben og udstyr - Lasere I manchetknapperne, Infrarøde Kameraer,
og meget mere!
Følg historien med filmsekvenser fra filmen.“
Manual is otherwise the same, but the original has a barcode on the back cover.
The spine says “TOMORROW NEVER DIES™” on the original and “TOMORROW NEVER DIES”
on the Platinum copy.

This version stops the music when the game is being saved (at least after a
mission, on PS1).
Some local translation oddities (English to Finnish):
One instance of “disc” (British spelling) has been translated to “diskette”
(levyke). Good job on translating the word.
One instance of “strafe” has been translated to “fire” (tulittaa).
“The Sniper Rifle is a precision- shooting device” has been translated to “The
Sniper Rifle is worthy of its name” (Sniper Rifle on nimensä veroinen).
“Similar to the standard Sniper Rifle” has been translated to “This weapon
corresponds to the normal Sniper Rifle” (Tämä ase vastaa tavallista Sniper
Rifleä).
Some credit positions are oddly translated. “Motion Capture Director” as “Film
Director” (Elokuvan ohjaaja), “Motion Capture Stunt Coordinator” as “Movie
Stunt-Actors director” (Elokuvan stunt-näyttelijöiden ohjaaja), “Motion Capture
Stunts” as Movie Stunt Actors” (Elokuvan stunt-näyttelijät), “Motion Capture
Services” as “Movie Services” (Elokuvapalvelut) and “Customer Quality Control”
as “Customer feedback handling” (Asiakaspalautteiden käsittely). Makes sense,
right?
This certain gem is included in the manual: “Warning: To Owners Of Projection
Televisions” has been translated to “Warning to wide-screen television owners!”
(Varoitus laajakuvatelevisioiden omistajille!) as usual.
Some instances of “Q’s Tip” have been translated to “Q’s instruction” (Q:n
Ohje), some are translated to “Q’s Tip” (Q:n vihje).
Manual oddities:
Some bolding is lost on “BASIC CONTROLS”.
All the translations lose the grid seen in BASIC CONTROL SUMMARY.

When compared to the Scandinavian version, the UK has the same stuff, but

In comparison to PAL releases:
Obviously the cover is the more or less the same, logos have different place and
that black bar saying “PlayStation” is at the side instead of bottom. The rating
system and thus, the logo too is different.
The disc has different layout and different label characteristics, the
background is the same.
Back cover is like the UK version, but with the usual US layouts.
Manual has more or less the same text and images, there’s some formatting
differences and some words are changed to their synonyms and some sentences are
different. It also has L3 and R3 buttons mentioned on the controller layout.
Back cover advertises “The James Bond 007 Collection on VHS and Special Edition
DVD” like the Japanese version.
Manual has a registration card and a PROOF OF PURCHASE.
The game has no known differences in-game when compared to PAL UK version.
Greatest Hits: Color on the left side of the cover is green and a different
ELECTRONIC ARTS logo can be seen. Back cover has different ELECTRONIC ARTS logo
and a different formatting of the legalese. The disc is gray. Data on the disc
is the same.
Collectors’ Edition: Color on the left side of the cover is white and at the
top, there’s “COLLECTORS’ EDITION” text. Back cover has stuff shuffled around a
bit and one image seen is different. Manual is different with the few last
places and has a different PROOF OF PURCHASE. The disc is white. Data on the
disc is the same.
Greatest Hits variant differences:
The green and grey colors differ between each. First revision is green and light
grey, second revision is lighter green and darker grey and third revision is way
brighter green.

PS2 SCPH-50004 / SCPH-75004 only: With “fat” PS2, cutscenes sometimes skip.
PAL/UK:
PS2 SCPH-50004 / SCPH-75004 only so far: Music “off”, sound effects cut off
sometimes.
PAL/UK / PAL/G / PAL/F - PS1 SCPH-5502 / PS1 SCPH-7002 / PS1 SCPH-9002 / PS2
SCPH-50004 / PS2 SCPH-75004 / ANY VERSION ON EMULATOR (ePSXe):
Mission 5: Cutscene with Kaufman changes camera angles a bit too fast, though
all audio plays through.
Mission 6: Cutscene with Q changes camera angles a bit too fast, though all
audio plays through.
Mission 7: Cutscene with Isagura goes too fast and audio goes at normal speed so
the “Sayonara!” can’t be heard.
PAL/UK - PS1 SCPH-5502 / PS2 SCPH-75004 / ANY VERSION ON EMULATOR (ePSXe):
Mission 10: 1st cutscene with Carver goes too fast and audio goes at normal
speed so the “Kill him!” can’t be heard.

SCPH-75004 / EMULATOR (ePSXe):
The end game screen has an extra character seen which is not present on PS1 and
PS2. (Does not always on console)
NTSC/J:
PS1 SCPH-9002: Cutscenes either have a bad timing with dubbing or something goes
way out of sync at times, everything plays completely though.
NTSC/U has worked as intended with both PAL SCPH-7002 and SCPH-9002 and NTSC
SCPH-1001 consoles.
If anyone knows if any glitches listed here happen on other models, please let
me know. (PAL game(s) on PAL models, NTSC/U game on NTSC/U models and NTSC/J
game on NTSC/J models. With PS1 and/or PS2 consoles.)

22: Review copy
---------------
Review copy seems to exist, for marketing purposes. It’s a black label disc,
containing the game’s English name and Spanish name (no Spanish version exists).
Contains an MGM logo and Electronic Arts logo. Electronic Arts ID is seen, it’s
MTE061015560O. Also SLES-01324 with a code 4021185 are seen, this hints that
it’s the full game as a promo copy.

About & stuff
-------------
A press kit exists that likely was sent to press to get some stuff out. The disc
is made for Windows 95 and Windows 98, which were intended to be used to look at
the content on the disc. But nowadays, you could use modern Windows OS...
The disc is dated November 1st, 1999.
The size is 69197824 bytes.
Disc name is “TND”.

Overview
--------
The cover is your basic Tomorrow Never Dies cover, without the bottom part being
obscured.
The back cover has some imagery and text labeling the thing as “DIGITAL PRESS
KIT” and telling about “FEATURES” that are “Screenshots”, “Movie Files”,
"Screensaver”, “Wallpaper” and “Additional extras”.
The spine has a generic “TOMORROW NEVER DIES™” on it.
The disc itself is like in the final game, having bigger “COMPACT disc” logo,
different color in the 007 icon behind “Tomorrow Never Dies” logo, indicators
for the disc being a “Windows 95/98 CD-ROM” and a “PC compatible Media Kit”,
having a text “Not for resale” and different order with some logos, and also a
typo is present, “Distrubuted”.
--------
Contents
--------
ROOT
The ROOT has the following folders: “Downloads”, “Media”, “Press”,
“Screensaver”, “Wallpapers” and “xtras”. There’s also various other files. The
disc is supposed to be looked through it’s own program .exe.
Downloads -folder
WinZip unextractors, “Movies.exe” and “SShots.exe”. These extract the respective
contents into “C:\WINDOWS\Desktop” at default making folders “TND Movies” and
“TND Screenshots”.
Media -folder
Contains 3 movie files, “bazaar.mpg”, “driving.mpg” and “pressing.mpg”. They all
are at 160x128 resolution, have 30 fps, have Mono 64 kbp/s sound with a sample
rate of 32000 Hz.
Press -folder
Contains a single “TNDPress.doc” file. It contains some typos and
misinformation. The content of the file can't be implemented just like it
appears on a word text file editor, so it's edited to fit here:

-------------------------
Disc’s own content viewer
-------------------------
When you start the intended viewer program from “Start.exe”, you get a small
full screen window that’s bordered and you’re greeted with a disclaimer that’s
just some legalese. If you “Disagree”, the program simply quits. If you “Agree”,
you are greeted with the game’s trailer playing in a window. Then you are
instructed to “Shoot target to continue”. Then you see the main menu. On the far
right there’s some information, “latitude” and “longitude” being your cursor
position, “time” being your system clock and “clicks” the amount of time clicked
inside the program. You also see a gun graphic. The bullets in the clip of that
gun are your menu options. The first option is “Press Release”, second option is
“Screen Shots”, third option is “Screen Saver”, fourth option is “Movie Files”,
fifth option is “Wallpaper” and the sixth option is “Quit”. When you select an
option, the gun shoots a bullet. Each menu has a “main menu” and “quit” option.
When you quit, the gun shoots at you and a short clip plays. Then you see the
credits.
Press Release -option
Gives you a text screen with multiple pages and has a link to a word document
described earlier. Last page seems to have an issue as all the text does not
show.
Screen Shots -option
Gives you an image selection with a possibility to enlarge it to the screen and
has an option to download all the images to ones PC.
Screen Saver -option
Gives you an option to install the screensaver.
Movie Files -option
Gives you an option to movie files and download the movies to ones PC.
Wallpaper -option
Gives an option to install them two wallpapers in two different resolutions.
Quit -option
Shows a small clip and then gives you software credits.
-----------
Screensaver
-----------
This needs to be installed. The installer starts with a splash, then it goes to
the first phase. Welcome screen. Clicking “Next” gives you a License Agreement.
It’s quite unusual. Clicking “Next” gets the program to ask you the install
directory. This is “C:\Program Files\Tomorrow Never Dies” at default. Clicking
“Next” tells you that the setup has had enough and wants to install the thing.
Clicking “Next” begins the install. Files are installed to “C:\WINDOWS\” and
C:\Program Files\Tomorrow Never Dies”. Then a pop-up for “C:\Documents and
Settings\All Users\[START THINGY IN YOUR LANGUAGE]\[PROGRAMS IN YOUR LANGUAGE]
\Tomorrow Never Dies Screensaver” comes up having an option for “readme”. And
finally, setup tells you that all is well and done and asks you to click
“Close”. Curiously, at this point a “Remove Tomorrow Never Dies Screensaver”
appears next to “readme”. The readme itself contains SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS,
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (how to install after the installation process is
already done - what), and a bit about MUSIC that the screensaver has (you
wouldn’t know without this that there is such a feature). Then a developer
credit (Media Revolution). Finally some legal and a PRIVACY POLICY.
Then you need to set the screensaver through your settings. Select “Tomorrow
Never Dies” and you’re all set. Clicking “Settings” for the screensaver gives
you a splash. You can either wait or click “Overview” to see it. This is where
it either works or not. If all is fine, it plays. Otherwise it says it can’t
run.
Now, the thing starts with a gunbarrel and it opens to a red background where
you can see the name of the game and PS1 Bond comes to do things at intervals.
If you have read the readme, you know that pressing “CTRL” and “S” to toggle
music. The way this works is that when toggled on, it stays that way even if the
screensaver is taken off your screen. The song is “Letter to Paris”, which is
unused by the game and is heard in the game soundtrack CD and on the full
soundtrack (is this unofficial or something) of the movie. The version on the
screensaver is missing an instrument and is low quality track, and thus it feels
different to listen to.
-------------------
24. French Press CD
-------------------
A CD containing audio was made for French (radio) advertising (?). It’s like any
other redbook audio CD, no data at all. I don’t know more specifics at the
moment.
================================================================================
PICTURES SECTION IS MISSING HERE AS IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO BE HERE. THERE'S
IMAGES OF SOME LOADING SCREENS AND STAFF IMAGE THAT'S HIDDEN ON THE DISC, ALSO
THERE'S IMAGES ABOUT EXTRA LIFE GLITCH, JAPANESE CONTROL DIFFERENCES, REGIONAL
DIFFERENCES, SOME UNUSED GRAPHICS WITH PROPER PALETTES AND SCANS FROM EUROPEAN
AND JAPANESE MANUALS, STRATEGY GUIDES AND THE PRESS KIT BUT THESE ARE WORTH
MENTIONING HERE:
================================================================================
Loading screen for level 2 which shows us some earlier content of the level.
In-game, in the location that the picture shows, in front is a vehicle whereas
in here an object is shown with armor behind it.
Scan from Prima’s Official Strategy Guide showing a curved staircase in mission
5, which doesn’t exist. In its place is a MED KIT.
With mission 8 elevator glitch, the game changes model RAM DATA. During that
process, something goes wrong. Normally loaded: Carver, Wai Lin, another
Carver, Bond, another enemy and another Wai Lin. With the glitch, it is the
same, except the 1st 3, which are now Carver and 2 something incomprehensible.
In addition, the game tries to apply Carver’s graphics to these enemies and for
some reason misplaces the graphics. Half the face in wrong side, eyes in hands,
fists in legs, jacket buttons on the backside and many more errors. On the
left: the model when you are close. On the right: the model when you are
somewhat far. 3rd is not seen here which requires you to be even farther.

24. VRAM
--------
Other versions have the same groupings mostly, though weapon and gadget names
are thrown around the RAM and some left un-translated at times.
Among the VRAM data in Level 1 is some text, which is not seen in-game. “SKI
POLE”, “RELOAD”, “CAMERA”, “ROCKET” are these. Also note the presence of the
graphics for LARGE MEDKIT, which doesn’t exist in this level. Make note that
there is what seems to be another type of crosshair I don’t recall seeing at
all. Also that big 007 thingy won’t get overwritten by level graphics and thus
is a leftover from main menu. The last item I note here that there is a hand
holding what... A clip? Perhaps something to do with “RELOAD”. Something with
health icon that is unused. Also next to the graphic of EXTRA LIFE, there is a
graphic for some kind of gun that I don’t recall seeing anywhere. If one uses
Gameshark, one can add a SKI POLE into the weapon inventory and see the weapon
text.
Text not seen in Level 2. Here is “SMG 45” and the picture for Weapon Selection
of SMG which means SMG were meant to appear here? Also “RELOAD” is again
present. There also seems to be graphics for a deleted weapon. Text showing
“Pause” is here for some reason. Maybe a placeholder for PAUSE MENU? Make note
of that hand holding a clip and it is inverted. Also there are 2 versions of
crosshair, the other one has four dots added. The access card from Level 1 is
also present here. Also the decoder graphics from Level 4 are present here.
In Level 3, there is still “RELOAD”. Cool stuff. Also something that looks like
a recorder. Hand holding a clip present. Something health related that was in
level 1 is also present here, unused as always. There is graphics for CASE OF
AMMO, though it’s not used in this level. There’s graphics for LIGHT ARMOR,
though that item doesn’t exist in this level.
Level 4 re-introduces us to “Pause”. Also the picture for “ACTION” is back and
the text also. Why there is a logo for Mercedes-Benz? There is graphics for
HEAVY ARMOR even though that item doesn’t exist on this level.
“RELOAD” is back in Level 5. Note that there is graphics for a phone and that
decoder...? Hand with clip, check.
Level 6 seems to contain nothing unusual. If we don’t count those graphics for
LARGE MED KIT, that won’t make appearance here. And that graphic for exploding
barrel. Also some clock thingy was meant to appear here somewhere? Two
crosshairs present again. The pause menu and message font is loaded twice in
VRAM, another instance seems to get overwritten a bit. Also, there is graphics
for LIGHT ARMOR, though that item doesn’t exist on that level. There’s also some
graphics for an unused truck.
Level 7 has “RELOAD” and “SKI POLE” and picture and text for “SNIPER” though it
is not in this level. Say hello to "Pause". Note those two crosshairs and a
hand holding a clip and other hand, empty though. It’s not ACTION hand that is
empty. Some symbols of some other font are present.
Level 8 here. Say hello to big things saying “ACCEPTED” and “DENIED”. Also them
“STK.MINE” are here with images though the level hasn’t any. Also text “ACTION”
with its image are here with “Pause” and “RELOAD”. Finally, here is them big
things shaped like “CROSS”, “CIRCLE”, “SQUARE” and “TRIANGLE”. And what are
those squared objects with “SQUARE”, “TRIANGLE”, “CIRCLE” and “CROSS” –shapes
on them? Does a hand holding a clip sound familiar yet? Also there seems to be
unused door model.
Level 9 has them 4 shapes, “RELOAD”, “ACTION” and its respective image and
“Pause”. However, I don’t recall seeing those normal MED KIT thingies anywhere.
Also that clip that is in a hand.
Level 10 has “ACTION” with it’s image again, “GL 40” is in there twice, as is
“SMG 45” and “PK9”, for some reason the German name of Assault Rifle, which is
“ANGRIFF” and “Pause”. Let’s not forget “RELOAD”. Those two Carver faces appear
to be unused and “SUPPLY ROOM” sign also appears to be unused. There is also
one door model that is unused. Also the phone graphic is present here. String
“MEDIKIT” can be seen. Yes, that hand with clip is here. Also an early MED KIT
graphic can be found.

25: Paradox Crack
-----------------
Paradox has made a ppf crack for the NTSC/U version. I can’t get it to work.
It’s supposed to be a Crack +5 Trainer with a PAL/NTSC selector. Trainer options
would be Unlimited Lives, Unlimited Ammos (All weapons), Unlimited Medikits,
Unlimited Energy and Unlock All Levels.

26: About Russian bootlegs
--------------------------
-------------------
General information
-------------------
As you may or may not know, PS1 market in Russia was almost 100% pirated games
(about 4 games actually did get released officially, see the end of the document
for proof). What they did was they got NTSC/U release and changed text in
graphics (sometimes this resulted in glitches and at times you couldn’t complete
the game), audio and text to Russian, except for a few occasions where PAL
version were used and English changed to Russian, which caused some hilarity if
the player did certain actions. Sometimes they got Beta versions and marketed
them as the “final game”, translated or not. And, in some cases, they changed
only text, or left games completely in English.
In this case, we’re going to take a look at Tomorrow Never Dies, with different
things changed with different groups.
-------------
Disel version
-------------
This is the NTSC/U changed to Russian language. If you emulate this version, it
is recognized as NTSC/U version and available SAVE STATEs are available, plus
if you have a game save, you can save and load.
Other notable things include:
- Legal screen - resolution same, original content dragged up resulting in
distortion, logo added to the bottom area
- Unused content translated
- Audio in English
----------------
Enterity version
----------------
This is the NTSC/U changed to Russian language. This is basically a different
game, if you emulate this version, you can’t use your save states and Gameshark
codes unless you do some renaming, but if you have a game save, you can save
and load.
Other notable things include:
- Boot screen changed
- Legal screen changed completely (I can’t get it to show up right on ePSXe)
- Unused content translated
- Dialog XA’s are sped up
- Internal files have “ENT_0007.99” instead of “SLUS_009.75”
- SAVE STATEs appear as “SLU__079.86” instead of “SLUS_009.75”, also cheat file
needs that name
- “OLULOID” as the name of the disc
------------------
RGR Studio version
------------------
This is the NTSC/U changed to Russian language. If you emulate this version, it
is recognized as NTSC/U version and available SAVE STATEs are available, plus
if you have a game save, you can save and load.
Other notable things include:
- Boot screen changed
- Legal screen - logo added to an empty area
- Main Menu graphics for “NEXT” and “BACK” changed to arrow-of-sort thing
- Unused content translated
- Unused stats screen is translated in unusual way
- “SCUS94240” as the name of the disc, is also the code of Syphon Filter,
NTSC/U version
--------------
Vector version
--------------
This is the NTSC/U changed to Russian language. If you emulate this version, it
is recognized as NTSC/U version and available SAVE STATEs are available, plus
if you have a game save, you can save and load.
Other notable things include:
- MGMLOGO and BLACKOPS .str files can be found in the data, they won’t play at
all for some reason
- Unused content translated
--------------------------------------------------------------------
27: Tomorrow Never Dies: The Original Soundtrack From The Video Game
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Soundtrack of the game was also released including a song that’s not in the
game... Except that it is. can’t be heard normally. It can be noted that Track
01, James Bond Theme is heard in the game, but not as album version. Track 17
is hidden in the game disc. I recommend checking Tommy Tallarico’s page for
more stories about the album (see sources).

Goofs

Tracklist has an error with the length of Track 4, saying 2:14. Correct length
is 2:36.
-----------------------------------------------------
Comparison between Game files and Soundtrack CD files
-----------------------------------------------------
When the tracks themselves are compared between the soundtrack disc and the
game, one can notice interesting things. I looked through the waveforms of the
tracks, which I ripped from the game in lossless WAV and from the soundtrack
disc in lossless WAV. This was done using Audacity.
2. Confrontation: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack disc,
but it seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is exceeded in
the game version all the time, and the game version sounds more dynamic.
17. Letter to Paris: Volume has been raised and the waveform goes all the way
to the top, indicating the volume is a loud as it can be at those points,
whereas the game version has some room at the highest points. Game version is a
bit longer in comparison.
4. Detonate: Volume has been raised and the waveform goes all the way to the
top, indicating the volume is a loud as it can be at those points, whereas the
game version has some room at the highest points.
7. Decoder: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack disc, but it
seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is exceeded in the
game version all the time, and the game version sounds more dynamic.
11. Outpost: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack disc, but it
seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is exceeded in the
game version all the time, and the game version sounds more dynamic. In
addition, the songs seem to be the same length, instead of soundtrack being
longer because of the silence.
13. A New Beginning: Waveforms look the almost the same here, though looks like
they raised a volume a bit and some other things, as the waveforms won’t match
completely.
9. Pressing Engagement: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack
disc, but it seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is
exceeded in the game version a few times, otherwise it is under that limit.
12. Infrared: Volume has been raised and waveform shows that the peaks are
limited to point X, which has a bad impact on the sound.*
15. Convoy: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack disc, but it
seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is exceeded in the
game version all the time, and the game version sounds more dynamic.
3. PPK: Volume has been raised and the peak has been set to the point where it
is almost as loud as it can be. This messes up the loudest parts.
6. Arms Bazaar: Volume has been raised and other tampering has been done to the
sound, as there are some differences with the waveforms.
14. Market: It may look like it is more dynamic on the soundtrack disc, but it
seems like they have limited the peaks to point X, which is exceeded in the
game version a few times and sounds more dynamic. Game version is a small bit
longer in comparison.
10. Carver Media: Volume has been raised and waveform shows that the peaks are
limited to point X, which the game version exceeds once and it sounds more
dynamic.
8. Hotel Atlantic: Volume has been raised and waveform shows that the peaks are
limited to point X, which the game version exceeds once and it sounds more
dynamic.
5. Media Tower: Volume has been raised and waveform shows that the peaks are
limited to point X, which has a bad impact on the sound.
16. Alarm: Volume has been raised and waveform shows that the peaks are limited
to point X, which has a bad impact on the sound.
**
* = Remember listening this one with my Walkman model NWZ-E453 (the device is
now dead, sadly) plus Sony’s MDR-E818LP headphones and remember thinking about
the bad sound quality of one instrument, which [the effect of raising the
volume with one instrument causing distortion] is not present on the game
version. It sounds clean.
** = This process reminded me of Ghost Sweeper Mikami: Gorgeous Songs, which
was released originally in 1995-7-21 (21st of July, 1995) as KICA-252, then in
2005-1-26 (26th of January, 2005) with KICA-686 and had volume raised in every
song, even in the one added to the re-release. That was the only tampering and
I was confirmed of it using the same way, comparison through Audacity. Before
taking that comparison I got the re-release (KICA-686) 1st and I was listening
a CD rip from Track 3 which replaced a version I found once and got (the source
for that won’t exist anymore, sadly) and it sounded like something was wrong
with it. After completing my Ghost Sweeper Mikami CD collection with original
release of the CD and taking a look to the waveforms confirmed everything.
Replacing the file from the CD it originally appeared in sounded like the
version I originally found and got (also is the case with original release,
KICA-252). That re-release now sits in the shelf mostly for completion of the
collection.

28: Trivia
----------
The Project name for Tomorrow Never Dies was “Bond”.
The 1st archived iteration of the games’ original website seems to refer to the
originally planned game.
Manual (UK) for Tomorrow Never Dies has 3 pictures of the game on it. Manual
(UK) for The World Is Not Enough has 2 pictures of the game on it. Manual (UK)
for 007 Racing has 1 picture of the game on it.
Tomorrow Never Dies doesn’t save your HI-SCOREs.
Save files for The World Is Not Enough show the German name in German version,
French name in French version and Spanish name in Spanish version, but in
Tomorrow Never Dies, German, French and Japanese versions all show the English
name.
One Russian pirate copy of Tomorrow Never Dies has MGMLOGO and BLACKOPS .str
files, but they won't play for some reason.
Tomorrow Never Dies VideoGame Soundtrack gives 4 sites in the back of the case,
from these www.bondmusic.com is not valid, www.chapteriii.com is also not valid
and it lead me to a site which tries to feed you some bullshit, www.tndgame.com
is also not valid anymore and www.jamesbond.com is only one that works out of
all 4.
There is also a glitch named Extra Item Glitch with Crash Bandicoot 2 and Crash
Bandicoot 3, it's just different and executed differently.
(The following is intended to be with TND, TWINE, 007R, AUF and partly with NF.)
These games with the exception of NightFire with some extent were created with
4:3 TV’s in mind, so don’t stretch the image to fill a 16:9 TV as it will look
stretched but also appears incorrectly. (As a side note, don’t stretch any 4:3
content for the same reason. You should always use the correct aspect ratio and
in case of 4:3 on 16:9 system, don’t use pillarboxing, use instead 4:3 settings
and set your TV to 4:3, that way you don’t lose resolution. New tech sure sucks
what comes to 16:9, to me, 4:3 it should be still anywhere. There is too much
hassle as things are now. Oh and 4:3 can be “HD” (what a dumb term for a
certain amount of PIXELS) too. Oh and did you know? SD is 4:3 even if you watch
“widescreen” (dumb term again for something) content.
--------------------------------------
TRIVIA SECTION: HOW ASPECT RATIOS WORK
--------------------------------------
NOTE: This part is here because when the author did some research about various
things, it threw him off quite much and it annoyed him as people were stretching
content out of its proportions. So he wrote this small piece.
As you may know, there are many aspect ratios. Now, we focus on 4:3 and 16:9,
also known as 1.33:1 and 1.78:1. Note: I don’t hate WIDESCREEN itself, I just
hate the wrong aspect ratio usage.
================================================================================
NOTE: It's obvious that no images are here, so imagine them or look this up.
================================================================================
As shown on the left here, the game image is seen as it was intended, 4:3 in 4:3
display. (Author has 4:3 CRT he uses in all his TV needs.) On the center is seen
how the game image can be seen wrong and is often seen in various online gaming
videos (DAMN YOU), which is the 4:3 image stretched to 16:9 screen. (I find it
rather amusing that to see SD in WIDESCREEN in the first place, you need to
stretch the 4:3 image that holds the WIDESCREEN content. That’s right,
WIDESCREEN in SD is TECHNICALLY 4:3 IMAGE! THOUGH IN CASE OF DVD’S AND TV
BROADCASTS, IT IS ACTUALLY 5:4 or 3:2. (5:4 = 720x576 - PAL 3:2 = 720x480 -
NTSC.)) On the right is seen how it can be seen right in 16:9 display,
pillarboxed in the center so that the image retains its original 4:3 aspect
ratio. LEARN THIS, WIDESCREEN USERS. I saw once a video in 4:3 as it should have
been and someone complained in the comments and said to the uploader in the
comments that he should use the 16:9 stretch tag for no reason.
It works with any kind of material. In this case, it is a scene seen TECHNICALLY
in 4:3, INSIDE THIS 4:3 frame is 2.35:1 image. On the left is seen how it should
be, in 4:3, because it is 4:3 TECHNICALLY. On the center is seen how it shows
wrong, stretched to 16:9 screen. On the right is seen how it can be seen right
in 16:9 display, pillarboxed in the center so that the image retains its
original 4:3 aspect ratio.

TRIVIA SECTION: STUFF THAT HAPPENED DURING THE MAKING
-----------------------------------------------------
1/2: This file once got deleted accidentally by me. Recovery program (cannot
remember) saved it. (Original .doc which is adapted to this.)
2/2: Office Assistant (in a form of the infamous Clippy) once thought I was
writing a letter and wanted to help. (Original .doc which is adapted to this.)
