Whilst starting to rip the graphics from this title I came across two passwords/features in the Atari ST version that are not listed in the hints section for the game details.

They are...

DISKTESTS         - This performs a disk integrity check, once finished the computer will halt and you need to reset to reload (Screenshot link below).

CH7E8WOV7       - This gives access to a "special feature" that includes the Amiga music (Screenshot link below).

I'm not sure anyone knew those passwords existed, I certainly didn't.

Tested both of them out myself and they do work.

The DISKTESTS one also works on the Amiga version, but unsurprisingly the music list password doesn't. :yes:

The DISKTESTS one also doesn't work on the CD32 Big 6 CDROM, and the other one is replaced with VERSIONXX which as you may guess displays information on the version for the CD32.

{eggs3}:wow:

It looks like my post about the "hidden" feature code as made it over to Atari-Forums.

I do hope someone runs with it and produces an STe version with enhanced music.

Ah, yeah that Codemasters Facebook group post that user is referring to was mine. {yolkfolk}:redfaced:

I don't "do" this type of social media myself (no mobile phone either),  I have just about got to grips with forums.

Share away if you like, I will never know what you say about me... {yolkfolk}:rofl:

Don't worry, I don't do mean. {yolkfolk}:delight:  

Also, you're not the only member that doesn't do social media either, ask Grandad. :lol:
