  |  Wanna join the #1 Console Group? We were the first to defeat PS2's    |
  |  advanced DVD protection schemes and the competition could only rush  |
  |  to leech our releases and copy our ripping techniques...              |
  |                                                                        |
  |  To develop our talented PS2 division we are now open for new          |

An NTSC-U review build of Mat Hoffman's Pro BMX for the Sony PlayStation, dated eight days before the first available final build.

Notes

  • The text in the options menu isn't centered.
  • Several character animations in the player select are different.
    • Granny uses an entirely different render.
    • Tony Hawk is standing in an odd pose with his bike on the ground, instead of sitting on it and relaxing with his hands behind his head.
    • Dennis McCoy's model has no lighting or shadows applied.
  • The general text layout and coloring in the Level Challenges screen is simpler.
  • The song and artist info is missing in the Sound Options menu.
  • There's slightly more vegetation and a slightly modified ice skating rink in the 'New York City' level.
  • This build allows the player to unlock the "School" level from Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, which was likely scrapped from the final because of the many bugs it has.
    • Notably, any ramp that is directly attached to a wall, seems to make the player bounce off and bail.
    • Also, some kind of invisible wall will impede any attempt to enter the gym.

Cheat codes

In addition to having an extra set of debug cheats enabled, most of the codes used in this build have different inputs. A few of them would later be reused in the PC and Dreamcast port of the game. For the most part, the debug codes match the ones used in pre-release builds of Tony Hawk's Pro Skater, since this game uses a modified engine of that game.

To unlock everything from the start, navigate to the "Press Start" screen, then hold down Square + Circle and press either the left or right directional button. Whereas in the final build, the entry would only be confirmed by a sound, a line reading "CHEAT MODE ENABLED" appears for a few seconds in the upper left corner.

The following codes however are entered in the pause menu, while holding down L1. A shaking pause menu will confirm a successful entry.

Add 8 Minutes to timer Square, Up, Circle, X SUCX
Always full special meter Left, Down, Triangle, Circle, Up, Left, Triangle, Square LDTCULTS
Debug coordinates & build date Down, Down, Triangle, Down, Down, Triangle DDT DDT
Display rail balance meter Left, Circle, Square, Triangle, Square, Circle, X LOST SOX
End run Circle, Up, Triangle, Circle, Up, Triangle CUT CUT
Fat tires / Exorcist Down, Circle, Circle, Down DCCD In addition to having fat tires, landing a combo with a score of 10.000 or higher turns the player's head green and spins it around.
FPS counter Down, Up, Left, Left, Down, Up, Left, Left DULL DULL
Give rider small boost Circle, X CX
Perfect balance Right, Up, Left, Square RULS
Replay save destination Right, Circle, Right, Down, Right, Circle, Right, Down RCRDRCRD This code activates a function to change the behavior, where by default, replays are saved to a memory card,

to be saved onto an attached dev kit/computer instead.

Since this code originates from THPS1, this particular build is missing this function.

Reverse riding direction Square, Circle, Square, Circle SCSC
Score times 10 Triangle, X, Triangle, Up, Down, Up TXTUDU
Score divided by 10 Up, Down, Up, Triangle, X, Triangle UDUTXT
Screenshots Circle, Up, Left, Left, Square CULLS The camera configuration can be activated in-game by pressing SELECT.

The game will freeze and the camera can be moved with the following inputs:

Horizontal Sphere Left / Right Square / Circle
Vertical Sphere Up / Down D-Pad Up / Down
Zoom In / Out D-Pad Left / Right
Rise / Lower L1 / L2
Lock input R2
Square, Circle, Right, X SCRX
Stats at 10 Up, Up, Up, Up UUUU
Stats at 0 Down, Down, Down, Down DDDD
Slow motion Square, Triangle, Circle, X STCX
Toggle blood Right, Up, Square, Triangle RUST
Toggle HUD Square, Left, Up, Triangle SLUT Ending a run in ether a timed mode or while a combo is ongoing, can cause the game to softlock.
Unlock THPS Warehouse Circle, Square, Triangle, Left CSTL
Unlock THPS School Circle, Square, Triangle, Up CSTU The retail version will load this build's save file and vice versa.

Saving the game with the unlocked School level, will allow you to select it in the final version as well, which you're normally unable to do.

Unlock THPS Burnside Circle, Square, Triangle, Right CSTR
Unlock Granny Circle, Square, Triangle, Down CSTD
Unlock Tony Hawk Circle, Square, Triangle, Triangle CSTT

   |  advanced DVD protection schemes and the competition could only rush   |
   |  to leech our releases and copy our ripping techniques...              |
   |                                                                        |

   |  Or if you're a skilled C/C++/ASM coder able to design Win32 tools     |
