Unused Level Objective Script

To do: Document what the script would have done if it worked.

An unused level objective script from 1999 with the filename "Template.txt" can be found with the other level objective scripts. It unfortunately doesn't work as it uses an earlier version of the game's level objective script format, not to mention calling a level map that doesn't exist anymore. Judging by the name and its contents, it was probably a test level the developers used as a reference during the game's development. To see the full script, check out the notes page.

Unused Dialog Box

There is an unused dialog box in Legoland.exe that lets you select various assets used by the game. It loads a list of assets from LEGOLAND.icm, which interestingly includes many files not present in the final game. To access the dialog box, change 6800AE4B to E8837C00 at 0x73F9B in Legoland.exe and input the DIGGER cheat while in a level. If the dialog does not appear and the game appears to have crashed, try minimizing the game (this should happen automatically when opening Task Manager). Clicking on any of the buttons on the dialog will crash the game.

Unused Videos

Jonathan Ablebody

To do: Way more of these are unused, maybe even worth splitting into a subpage.

These unused videos are identical to the used Jonathan Ablebody videos, except they have black backgrounds. They were likely used to test the game's ability to display video while it's being played. They are also some of the oldest files on the disc, created almost half a year before the game was released.

Difficulty System

There are text strings, dialog and graphics for an age-based difficulty system, much like that of LEGO Chess. It was probably removed due to time or space constraints.

Age up
Age down

Age up.

Age down.

To do: There are two unused graphics, RegAgeUp.lls and RegAgeDown.lls, likely once part of this difficulty system. Put them here when .lls graphics can be viewed.

Unused Rides

To do: Two things: There's a few more unused rides than what's currently here Find a better way of loading these in-game than with an .IPS patch. When it's possible, rip the graphics for the Log Flume Drop, Water Works Drier and Rope Climb Ride. An image of the placeholder globe icon would also be nice.

Log Flume Drop

Originally intended to be used in levels 3 and 4 as part of the Log Flume ride, this ride attachment went unused for unknown reasons. Applying the above patch to Legoland.res will restore it to levels 3 and 4.

Add a Water Drop to the Log Flume
Watch out for the Log Flume drop. It's a long way dooooooooooooown.

Water Works Drier

This elephant would have been used to dry up the Water Works. For its ride preview icon it uses a placeholder globe icon seen in several pre-release screenshots. Applying the above patch will add it to level 7.

Rope Climb Ride

This ride is part of the castle theme and depicts a medieval obstacle course. Like the Water Works Drier, it also uses the globe icon. The park's visitors can't ride on it, possibly because the graphics for visitors riding on it were never created. It otherwise functions perfectly. Applying the above patch will add it to level 2, replacing the Octopus Cafe.

Medium Dinosaur

This would have been included with the other dinosaurs. Its graphics no longer exist.

Castle Dummy

This ride uses the roller coaster's data, has no graphics and uses "Coaster Track" for its in-game name. It could have been an early roller coaster track, although the name suggests it might also have been a placeholder ride.

Plane

An early version of the Adventurers Plane Ride, with the very descriptive name of "PLANE".

Early Hedge

An early hedge, missing its description, graphics and code.

Early Driving School

An early driving school, also missing its description, graphics and code.

Early Driving School Roads

An early driving school road, which is missing its description, graphics and code as well.

Cheat Codes

Note: These cheat codes require that they are typed while holding down the left Shift key. The exception being DIE, which requires the player press the left Shift key twice.

A picture of what the SHOWCAPACITY cheat code shows when you hold the Shift key.
