Resident Evil: Directors Cut
STRATEGIES AND CHEATS
Double items
Highlight the "Advanced" option on the game mode screen and hold Right until the pointer turns green. Begin game play and double the normal amount of items, including ink ribbons and ammunition, will be available.
Change clothes
Rescue the other two players and finish the game. The phrase
"You've got the special key" will appear after the credits. Save the game. Start the game that was just saved. Enter the room with the large mirror on the second floor of the mansion. Unlock the door in the back. Enter the closet and move all the way to the end of the rack of clothes. A message asking "There is an outfit that fits you perfectly, do you want to put it on?" will appear. Select "Yes" to change your character's clothes.
Reset game
Pause the game during play and press Start + Select. The game will reset and return to the main menu. Controller
configuration
Press Select + Start during game play. Unlimited rocket
launcher
Finish the game within three hours without rescuing anyone. A rocket will appear after the credits. Choose to continue
playing after the game restarts. The rocket launcher will be
available when the new game begins. Note that the rocket
launcher does not shoot well upwards or downwards.
Unlimited magnum
Select advanced mode and complete the game as either character in any amount of time. The unlimited magnum will be available when the game is replayed. This weapon makes it easier to complete the game in under three hours for the
unlimited rocket launcher, at which point both weapons will be available for another game.
Clock Tip
If you look at the pool table in the Bar Room of the Guest House, you'll notice cue balls reading 12, 6, 3, 9, a clock dial at the end of the table, and 2 cue sticks. This represents a clock; the numbers represents the numbers of a clock, and the cue sticks represents the hands of a clock, the shorter hand being the hour hand and the longer stick being the minute hand.
For Jill's storyline, it reads 3:45 and for Chris's storyline, it reads 2:15. What this tip does is that it makes it easier to open the door with the numbered key-pad lock in the beehive room. For Jill, enter 3, 4, 5 and the door will unlock. For Chris, enter 2, 1, 5, and the door will unlock.
Note: The numbers must not have been played with previously for trick to work.
Colt Python with unlimited ammo
Beat the game in the ADVANCED mode with Chris or Jill and rescue everyone so at the end it says "What a tough guy! You have completely closed the case!" Then it will ask you to save the game. Do it. Then go to load game at the title screen and load the game. Then you will have the Colt Python with as many shots as you want.
Double Ammo
At the title screen choose NEW GAME then go down to ADVANCED but don't choose it. While ADVANCED is highlighted, hold RIGHT on the D-Pad. After about 10 seconds the color of ADVANCED will change. You may now start a game with either character.
From now on, whenever you pick up a clip it will have 30 rounds instead of 15 and the ink ribbons will have six saves instead of two.
Easier Way To Get New Clothes
Start a new game and highlight Advanced. Hold Right until it turns green. Then select it. Select Chris and when you get the Armor Key, go through the door by the blue double doors in the main hall. Head to the room with the large mirror. Go into the other door. It should be unlocked. Inside will be some new clothes.
Easier Way To Kill The Plant Boss
To save some time, as Jill, don't go into the drug storehouse to make the V-Jolt. Instead just go downstairs and drain out all the water from the basement. Then, once you're done fooling around downstairs, head back upstairs and load flame rounds into your bazooka (assuming you got it) and go into the Plant Boss Room. When you get in there fire at him as usual. It should take about four shots. When you're finished and the plant has been reduce to a pile of purple goo on the middle of the floor, run over to the fireplace and get the helmet key. Doing this should save about fifteen minutes. You don't have to do this if Barry comes in to save you though.
If this doesn't work, do the exact same thing as above, but when you get back upstairs load explosive rounds in your bazooka and fire at will. It should take about four shots. When you do that the plant should shrink itself and gather itself at the top and bottom of the room. Now exit the room, load flame rounds and go back inside. It should only take four flame rounds to kill it once and for all.
Hunting Tips
To kill Zombies in one shot, let them walk right in front of you. Then aim high with the Shotgun and fire. Poof! Dead zombies.
For acid-spitting zombies, let them get pretty close, then fire three steady shots with your Beretta. This will save you a lot of ammo.
To kill spiders quick, here's what to do. If you're Jill, arm the Bazooka with Flame rounds. Then when you encounter a spider let it get pretty close (or if you like, when it's ready to bite you), than fire! This works only agaist medium-sized spiders. You can try the Acid rounds, but it might take a shot or two more.
For Chris, if you can pick up the flamethrower, use it agaist the huge spider. Just fire until it's dead.
Remove Emblems
To remove the emblems from the Doom books, examine the books and turn them on their side with the pages facing you. Press X to open the books and retrieve their emblems.
Save Some Ammo
When playing as Jill the first Zombie you come to is in the corridor over Kenneth's body. As soon as the Zombie starts coming at you, run into the dinning room where Barry is. Barry will ask what's wrong, and then kill the approaching Zombie. This will save you a few rounds of valuable ammunition.
