Source Code

Download SRDATA.DAT File: JimmyJohnsonsVRFB98-STUFF.zip (info)

Contained in the STADIUM folder is a file named SRDATA.DAT, which is actually a zip file with a password. To open it, use the password 464f4f54, which not-so-coincidentally happens to be the word "FOOT" in hexadecimal ASCII encoding. There will be another ZIP inside named STUFF.ZIP, which is also opened with the same password.

This will allow one to access an old source code archive of the game, dating back to May 1, 1997.
