- Don't Leave Me!
from DSV 007 (valencia@garlic.com)
- This code will only work if you have obtained the slow animation cheat. To do the trick, turn this cheat on and start playing the cradle on any difficultly level. Play the level as normally, by first destroying the computer and then chasing and killing Terelven on the final platform. After the level is complete (once you have killed Tereleven), in the cinematic cutscene that follows, because of the fact that slow animation is on, Bond will run very slowly toward the helicopter. Because only people in the game are affected by the slow animation trick, the helicopter will act as normal and leave before Bond has a chance to get on!
(Hint- Because Tereleven is so slow with the cheat on, it is a good idea to use the Golden PP7 and take him out with one easy shot.)
- Double Assault Rifles
from Scott Petrie and Michael Graham
- In the caverns stage, there is a box in the right corner of the room where you contact Jack Wade. If you shoot this box then a smaller one inside of it appears. Keep shooting the smaller boxes until you see two monitors. If you shoot the monitors they each give you an Assault Rifle. Now you have two AR33's, making your shooting ablity twice as powerful!
- Double Gun Zoom
from gcates@usit.net
- To zoom with guns without sniper sights, mix a gun with a weapon that has a sniper sight.
- Double Trouble
from Robert Williams (clowne@hotmail.com)
- This trick lets players 2, 3, and 4 play as the same character. Here's what to do:
- Select MULTIPLAYER and choose a 4-player game.
- Choose the character you wish to multiply as player 4. Don't start the game!
- Select a 3-player game and set player #3 to the same person you used for #4.
- Now select a 2-player game and set player #2 to the same person you used for #4.
- To finish, choose a 3 or 4-player game and start playing.
If you did it right, players 2, 3 and 4 will be the same person.
- Easy Remote Mine Detonation
from CaptRGuy@aol.com
- To detonate a remote mine WITHOUT switching to the detonator, press A + B at the same time.
- Easy Way to Earn the Invisibility Code
from Alex Johnson (Natedog773@aol)
- This is done in 00 agent on the Archives.
First kill the guy infront of you and get the key and leave. Turn left and go up the stairs. Ignore the guy with the klobbs and go through the door. Turn left and go through the double-doors and get Natalia. Just left her see you. Then go through the doors by the stairs. Go down the stairs and go through the door in the middle of the room. Turn left then go straight. Go through this door then turn a sharp turn left through another door. Mishkin's in there. While he's talking get in between the boxes by the safe. Once you get the key kill Mishkin and get the black-box. Then go through the oppisite door you came in. Go down the hallway and in the door. There are windows in this room, so blow them away and get out.
- Exploding Plane
from Trevalyn5 (mrl-whtn@worldnet.att.net)
- On the "RUNWAY" level, get some grenades then get the key. Just before hopping into the plane, toss in a grenade then get in. (MAKE SURE THE DOOR IS OPEN!) If done correctly the plane will explode and keep on flying without anything wrong with it.
- Extra Time in the Train
from Andy Stoltz (ackbar22@hotmail.com)
- In the train, when you reach the last car, stand on the right side so that Ourumov is directly in front of Xenia. Shoot Ourumov and then keep shooting after he falls and try to hit Xenia. If you do hit her, she will say, "Wait for me Alec, I'm hit." Alec won't tell you that you've got a minute to escape until you're about half way through with the floor panel, giving you lots of time to finish it. This will also give Natalya more time to find Boris if you're in Secret Agent or 00 Agent Mode.
- Fight With OO6
from Chris Schuett (schuettc@yahoo.com)
- Go to the facilty! To Fight With OO6 when you enter the Lab go to the chemicals canisters! Look for someone in a black suit! If you see him, aim with the KF7 Soviet fire one shot at his Foot! Go down by him and he should say "so golden boy is a traitor" he will start shooting at you! If the does not kill you he should say "Why don't you be a good boy and Die". Shoot at him with the Silenced PP7 in the Head. He should Say "Why James? Why?" just before the alarm goes off.
- Flaming Bond
from Matt Higgins (rectoman@hotmail.com)
- This code requires that you have the invincibility cheat. Go to the Silo level with invincible Bond on. Select the plastique explosives from your watch and throw it on the wall. Now, shoot the explosives with your gun. Wherever you run, the explosions will follow you and kill everything in your path.
- Floating Lock
from Hector (telemache2@aol.com)
- If you fire any explosive at the lock on the gate in the first level (the dam) and then open the gate, the lock should still be floating in midair!
- Floating Players
from Andy Stoltz (ackbar22@hotmail.com)
- In Multiplayer Mode, choose Facility and start the game. See if anyone has started in the ventilation shaft. If they haven't, kill someone until they do. Have another player go to the stall with the ventilation shaft above it, walk in, and look up. Now the player in the ventilation shaft should go to the hole over the stall and move slowly towards it until his view zooms down. The player in the stall should be able to see the other player directly above him, floating in midair!
- Floating Weapons
from pao91884@aol.com, Nitroxis64 and big2boys@teclink.net
- Start a multiplayer game in the library using any sort of mine. Place your mines on one of the windows or glass walls and shoot the glass. The window will shatter, but the mine will remain in the air, making it harder to see.
Want something fancier? Go to multiplayer and choose remote mines and the bunker stage. When you start, go to the main control room (the room with the huge computer screen) and collect some mines (there are some up the stairs to your right.)
Once that's done, stand under the monitors that are hanging from the ceiling and try to place one mine on each. You don't have to have one on each; just enough to destroy them all. Back off and detonate the mines, go back up to where you found the remote mines before and recollect them. Next, go to the pole-like stucture next to the stairs and try to attach a mine to it. Nothing will happen, but when you back up the mine will be hanging in midair, as will all subsequent mines until you end the game. Have a blast!
Note: This trick also works with throwing knives, grenades, tank shells and the other mines.
- Flying Bond
from Chris DiIonno (diionnop@erols.com) and Tanner Packer (lj1937@aol.com)
- Enable the TINY BOND code, then go to the bunker. When you are about to exit, crawl (or kneel), then walk back down the stairs. You won't go down the stairs -- instead you'll be floating in midair!
To do this in the Facility, go to the large room where the small gas tanks are. At the entrance there should two doors. Go throuh them and you should be in the room that was described above. Go to the side of the room to your left where to flights of stairs are facing each other. Go up one of them and turn around so that you are facing the other flight of stairs. Then kneel down and slowly walk foward.
- Flying Bond on Cradle
from JUSTIN (dube.1@globalserve.net)
- Turn on fast animation and turbo mode, then go to the CRADLE level. When you beat it you will go flying off the helicopter without the copter.
- Get Back in the Vent
from Chris Tart (c_tart@coffey.com) and Others
- To get back in the vent in the Facility, stand on the toilet that is under the vent. Then hold Left C until your player ducks, then press and hold R, and left on the control stick. When your player returns to the vent, release C and R and press forward on the control stick.
This can be used in Mission Mode and in multiplayer. If you are using proximity mines in multiplayer, plant some in the vent. If someone starts up there, they won't be able to escape without being killed!
NOTE: This trick must be performed with tall players.
- Get Two RCP90's and a Super Shotgun in the Caverns
from Nick Kendzora (jkendzora@aol.com)
- Go to the Caverns in agent and beat it by taking out ALL people. Chase Trevlen into the elevator, but don't go in! At the place where you have a choice of going upstairs or downstairs, go upstairs and walk around. Soon enough three guys will come out. Kill them and one of them should have 2 RCP90's! If he does not, wait awhile and they will appear again. Wait a long time and one will have a SUPER SHOTGUN!!!! Just wait for more people to come out and pump them full of lead!
- Golden Gun Room
from Craig Schiffbauer (MagicCDS1@aol.com)
- When you enter the Golden Gun room on the Egyptian level, do this. Step on the first lit block, then go Left 2, Up 2, Right 3, Up 2, Left 1, Up 1, Left 1, Up 2, and Right 1. After you get to the case in the middle of the room the bullet proof glass lowers and you can pick up the Golden Gun and some ammo. If you look down it makes the whole process easier.
- Golden Tag
from Zippy 64 (tynel@fcbe.edu.on.ca)
- It may sound strange, but I think it's really fun! Start a multiplayer game and set it to No Radar, Slappers Only. Then the person who is it counts to 20 or whatever number you want them to. During this time the other players should hide in another room and face the wall. (So that when the person opens his or her eyes they don't know where the person is.)
The person who is "it" must find another player and slap him or her as in conventional tag. (The people who are hiding cannot move or run away well the the person tags them.)
I hope you have fun trying this out because I sure had fun playing it!
- Grenades in the Facility
from peterscott@uswest.com
- Ever ran out of mines in facility and had to start over? Well here's a way to get grenades so that won't happen. Do the "mad scientist" trick (see below) and the scientist will pull a destovel on you. Dodge it for a while until the scientist pulls out a grenade. Before he can pull the pin, shoot him. Happy Hunting!
- Hidden Weapons on the Train
from StarFox681@aol.com and jjmz@hotmail.com
- Kill everybody in the first car. Walk towards the brake levers and you'll find two crates. Shoot them to reveal an RC-P90 or DD4 which will make your job MUCH easier.
- Invisible Mines
from Laszlo Jokuty and CharlesSmith@compuserve.com
- In multiplayer mode select remote mines. Throw some on an ammo box then pick up the box. The mines appear to be gone but press your watch and ... BOOM!
For a sneakier kill, choose Proximity mines. Find any ammo box and look down at it when you pick it up. Then lay a mine right where the box used to be. In a short time the box will come back covering the mine until someone picks up the box then BOOM!
- Levitate Back Into The Vent
from Gmoore9308@aol.com
- To get back into the vent with only one person, in mission or multiplayer, get into the stall. Hold down the R button,C-Right,and left on the analog stick. Then you will start to spin, after spinning you will begin to "Hover" in the air. When you are in the vent, let go of all the buttons and hold back on the analog stick and there you have it.
- Mad Scientists
from Code Master and Craig Schiffbauer
- To get a scientist angry in Secret Agent or 007 Mode, shoot him twice but try not to kill him. If you can do this he will pull out a DD4 and some of them even have hand grenades!
Note: This trick is a lot easier if you do this on 007 mode and set the enemy health to 1000.
- More Ammo in Multiplayer Mode
from Pierce Henne (phenne@connected.bc.ca) and Others
- Start any level in Multiplayer mode. When you get a weapon go find an ammo box and shoot it until it splits in two. This will not work on all the boxes and with explosives.
- More Ammo on Dam
from Greg (Minion1325@aol.com)
- To get more ammo on the dam, destroy all the boxes after you kill all the guys. You will get KF7 Soviet ammo.
- Movie Cover
from Chris DiIonno (diionnop@erols.com)
- To see the movie cover of goldeneye, go to the bunker 2. When you get the CCVV tape, hit START and go down your list of stuff until you come to the tape. Push START twice. This time on your watch should be a picture of GoldenEye the movie!
- Multi-Player Tips
from TheGameDr@GameSages.com
- You can win in multi-player every time if you learn the player pop-up points. These are the locations that a player will appear after he/she has been killed. Once you learn them you can race to the next pop-up point to see your opponent rise out of the ground.
To learn the pop-up points, enter a multi-player game against yourself. Kill the second player repeatedly and note where he or she reappears. Most stages have six or more pop-up points, so it will take awhile to find them all. See Pop-Up Points - The Facility for an example.
Once you learn the pop-up points you will have to learn what order your opponent will appear in each location. It usually depends on where you are positioned. So learn the pop-up points and have fun killing everyone that you play. Just don't give this secret away!
- Pop-Up Points - The Facility
from TheGameDr@gamesages.com
- To view all these locations you need to place your player at the bottom of the stairs leading to the bathroom. Make sure you're facing the stairs.
- In the air vent
- Outside of the bathroom to the right behind the double doors
- In the room to the left of the stairs
- In the room at the end of the hall to your left
- To the right of the stairs beside the box
- In the bottling room to the left in the last hallway, you have to pass through three security doors to get to this location.
Hint: The best place to locate yourself in the facility is directly at the bottom of the stairs leading to the bathroom. This will give you enough time to kill your opponent each time he pops up.
- Run Faster
from JUSTIN (dube.1@globalserve.net)
- Want to run faster in GoldenEye? No problem: when you run diagonally (e.g hold 2-C-buttons at once and look 40 degrees to the right/left) you run faster. It's just the thing to shave off those extra seconds for those time-activated cheats.
- Shoot During End Scene
from The Jackal (duke3d69@hotmail.com)
- Change your control setting to 2.3 Domino (You have to have two controllers) and play a level. Then during the ending, hit the Z button on the second controller. You'll fire whatever gun you're holding. Works best on Surface 2, Archives, Statue Park, and Egypt.You can shoot Mishkin and all the guards on Statue Park, Natalya on Archives, and your captors on Surface 2.
- Shoot Tank Shells From Your Head
from TheGameDr@segasages.com
- This glitch will only work in the tank levels (Streets or Runway). You also need to switch the infinite ammo code on. Go to the tank and climb on top. Switch your weapon to the one immediately before the tank shells. Then, while switching to the tank shells, jump off the tank. If you did it right, Bond's weapon will still be switched to tank shells.
- Simultaneous Shooting
from M. Oshel (moshel@intrnet.net)
- Usually when you have two of the same guns out, they fire alternately. But to shoot them at the same time, just fire a shot out of each gun and then hit reload. While the guns are out of the screen reloading, hold in fire, and when they come up, they will fire simultaneously for the rest of the clip if you hold in fire. then release fire so it can reload and then hold down fire again while they are out of the screen and it will continue to do it!
- Tank Cruise Control
from JUSTIN (dube.1@globalserve.net)
- On the tank levels (Runway and Streets), you can put your tank on cruise control. Simply push the stick forward a bit to move the tank forward ever so slowly. Any tank speed will work, but if it's moving slow you can aim easier. With the stick forward,hold down the aiming button and Voila! You can now let go of the gas. the tank will continue to movve forward and you can now swing the turret around and blast away!!!
- Terrorist
from nickels8@juno.com
- This one isn't a code but it's fun to play. Go to multiplayer mode. Weapon-Remote mines, first to five kills. 1 person is the terroist, the others, bomb squad. After the bomb squad has closed their eyes in the another room, and the terrorist has gone through and placed 10 to 30 remote mines around the stage, He goes to a remote spot gets ready to give the bomb squad 10 to 30 minutes (however long you feel like) to defuse all of the mines.
Bomb Squad Objective: Defuse all mines
Terrorist Objective: Keep an eye on the bomb squad and detonate the bombs when the time comes. If the others players give you a hard time by shooting you, just blow the rest of the mines up with your detonator.
- The Cradle Made Easy
from MacDaddy (HMDZ79F@prodigy.com)
- The key to beating the cradle the easy way is to snipe Trevelan. To do this, stand at a vantage point where he cannot see/shoot at you. These are the steps needed to be taken when doing this:
- Blow the control console
- Next, get to the left of the ramp so you can just see Trevelan's head. Aim and shoot him in the head.
- Then let him run into the engine room and take position about half-way up the ramp. Aim and shoot him again in the head. He may say "Finish the job..." but if he doesn't go to step 4. If he does got to 5.
- He should run up the stairs and up the ramp. Run up the stairs but take a right and stop about half-way to where Trevelan is standing shoot him in the head again and if you did it right he should say "Finish it..."
- When you are running to the platform thingy to finish him off kill anyone on the lower level. Slowly walk down the stairs and VERY slowlyturn the corner so he doesn't drop down. Shoot him in the head. Drop down and when you are dropping quickly turn around and release havoc on any lifeform down there. You should kill him and if you're lucky you can watch him fall off the spire.
- Congratulations! You've beat it!
- Throwing Knives
- The throwing knives mentioned in the manual are hidden in Bunker 2. When you start the level, use the magnetic watch to get the cell key. After you've escaped your cell and killed the guard, look for a framed hole to the right of your jail cell. Use the magnetic watch on the hole to retrieve the knives.
- Use a Weapon in Flag Tag
- Start a game of Flag Tag with Sniper Rifles as the weapon. Just before you pick up the flag, switch to the butt of the sniper rifle, then hold the ATTACK button as you run over the flag. As long as you don't release it you'll be able to attack people while carrying the flag.
- Using Cheats from Another Folder
- 1. Choose a cheat from folder with the A button. DON'T RELEASE THE A BUTTON.
2. Press the B button twice while still holding the A button. When the folder select screen appears, press Z to choose another folder.
3. Still holding the A button, go to the cheat menu, highlight any code, then press Z.
4. Press the B button and release A.
5. Select a level and have fun!
- Wield Two Different Guns
- First, get out two of the same guns, the cycle to the next gun on your list. Fire it once, then reload it. While it's reloading. Press A, then hit and hold Z until the two mixed guns come up.
