Unlimited skirmish mode time:
Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the file
before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "svrcfg_skirmish.ini" file in
the "\westwood\renegade\data" directory. Change the "gametime" value to zero to
remove the time limit. You can also edit the amount of staring money.
Extra units in multi-player mode:
In multi-player practice or non-laddered mode, you can get extra units for
characters and vehicles by pressing [F8] and typing extras fnkqrrm or extras
quantifigon (in the unpatched version). The message "Extras enabled" will confirm
correct code entry. Go to the Purchase Terminal and hold [Alt] the entire time that
you are looking for something to buy. There should be four new characters and
two new vehicles for each side. For GDI, the new characters are General Locke,
Elana Petrova, Logan, and Lieutenant Maus and vehicles are a sedan and pickup
truck. For NOD, the new characters are mutants, a chef, Mutated Petrova, and
Kane. Note: You will only see the new units. Release [Alt] to see the normal units.
Note: This will not work in a laddered game.
Different practice map:
You can play a practice game on different maps. You do not need to be online
when you do this. Go into the game menu with the "Single Player", "Multiplayer
Internet", etc. options. Click on "Multiplayer LAN" (even if you do not have a LAN),
then click on "Host Game". Enter your game name, set your "Players Limit" to "1"
and continue with the remaining settings. Make sure you have a different map
than "CNC_Under.mix", then click "Start Game" You will be able to blow up bases
and do everything that you could normally do in a regular multi-player game.
Vehicle dimensions::
This trick works in renegade and skirmish modes. While in any vehicle except the
sedan and pickup, press [F8] and type edit_vehicle. A screen will appear with the
default dimensions for that vehicle. You can change these to have a fast
controllable car to blow up the opposing team.
Defeating Mendoza:
Use the pistol and shoot for the head.
Use the chain gun on him. It should kill him in less than one round under the
commando difficulty setting, even if you do not aim for the head.
Defeating Petrova:
When facing her in the last stage, use the Volt Auto-Rifle on her as soon as you
have cleared the room you found her in off all other enemies (Stealth Troopers,
Viceroids etc.). Then, when facing the exit of that same room, hide behind the
right side of the wall that is jutting out, but make sure that you can see the
pathway coming up on the left (also while facing the exit) and the approximate
middle "pillar" of the outside room. Shoot Petrova when she lands near you. She
jumps around the room, sometimes cloaked, sometimes not; you will know its her
in clacked form by the gun she carries -- you can see it and she does not die as
quickly as other stealth soldiers. Keep shooting her with the Volt Auto-Rifle. Always
aim for the head.
Defeating Ravashaw:
Use the flamethrower and rocket launcher on him. Run backwards and use the
flamethrower on him when he is close or semi-close to you. Also try to aim for the
head. When he jumps up onto the high walkways and is standing still, use the
rocket launcher. Try to get in as many shots with the rocket launcher as possible.
When using the rocket launcher, you do not have to aim for the head unless
desired.
Shoot him with the Personal Ion Cannon. A lucky shot in the head will take away
over half his health under the commando difficulty setting. When he jumps up onto
the walkway, shoot him with the pistol in the head.
Use Viceroids to your advantage:
When using Tiberium weapons, the enemy sometimes mutates into Viceroids. To
make sure they do not attack you, create the Viceroid in a crowd. For example, do
this in the Deadly Reunion mission where a few NOD Soldiers and a Flame Tank
are. Mutate the soldiers and they will attack the Flame Tank. While the Flame Tank
is distracted you can slip past it.
Use Harvesters to your advantage:
Hide behind the Harvester to the enemy base to keep defenses from attacking you.
Recommended strategy:
Get people in a group. Two are infantry, two are engineers, and one is a sniper.
The sniper will take care of long range threats; the infantry at close range; and the
2 engineers will take care of the other three, health-wise. This attack will not work
well against tanks, but should do fine against enemy units.
Sniping with a Rail Gun:
Host a multi-player game, and make a Rail Gun mod so that you will start with it.
Go to the fortress (near the battlegrounds) and get a Sniper Rifle. Shoot the rifle
until it is empty. Rapidly switch and right click between the Rail Gun and Sniper
Rifle. Suddenly, you will get Rail Gun with a sniper.
Note: not all of these cheats has been tested.
