Proto:Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando/September 4, 2003 build/Debug mode
This is a sub-page of Proto:Ratchet & Clank: Going Commando/September 4, 2003 build.
 | This article is a work in progress. ...Well, all the articles here are, in a way. But this one moreso, and the article may contain incomplete information and editor's notes. |
This prototype features a working debug mode, by punching in the button combination Up, Down, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Square. You gain access to a plethora of debug options.
Debug Menu
 | To do: Figure out what call, bookmark, dump, movie does. |
By pressing R3, you can open up the debug menu. Pressing either L1 or R1 will change each screen. Holding R2 while either pressing X or Square allows you to do add certain values on a lot of menus a lot faster.
MAIN
First screen allows you to mess around with the main settings.
UPDATE
This option allows you to toggle the player model, as well as other things around Ratchet like mobys (enemies and other interactive objects) and the camera.
MODE
Control can be used to change what you control. Normal is defualt, Cam+char is moving the camera and character around, Camera is moving just the camera around with everything disabled. And Volume is the same as Camera, but with mobys and parts enabled.
Profile
Occl can be used to toggle the occlusion
Invinc toggles invulnerabilty.
Draw dist Allows you to change the draw distance between near and normal.
TV mode supposed to toggle between progressive scan, NTSC and pal, but it doesn't seem to work.
16:9 toggle to turn on 16:9.
Screen change between normal and small screen. Small is the best way to play the game the developers didn't want you to know about.
Scene allows you to scroll between and view in-level cutscenes.
Chunk can be used to load different chunks.
Minor toggles bolt mining debug.
- Most of the DRAW options only work on a TOOL, so not worth talking about here, at least not until it's been tested and documented.
MISC
Ratchet HP allows you to give yourself extra HP.
Bolts gives you bolts if you press X.
XP is experience used for Ratchet's HP.
Raritanium, you can give yourself more raritanium.
FOG
Allows you to mess around with the fog
WEAPONS
By pressing Circle on the GOLD tab, you can upgrade the weapons from normal to heavy, mega and ultra. The AMMO column is used to add ammo.
The HP1, HP2, HP1G and HP2G columns change how much the weapons damage enemies.
GADGET XP
 | This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. |
LOAD LEVEL
A fully functional level select with every level in the game.
However, some planet names in the level select aren't final and show off some work in progress names. Here's a table showcasing the debug and the final names.

TUNING
| This needs some investigation. Discuss ideas and findings on the talk page. Specifically: Add explanations for the names and stuff. |
Debug option to change what you've done/not done in certain levels.
WEAPONS MODS ON/OFF PAGE
Allows you to toggle weapon mods on/off. It's not that difficult of a concept to grasp.
SPACE COMBAT
Allows you to add ship weapon upgrades, and give yourself ammo. Makes it easy to cheese the space combat missions.
RC2HUD TWEAKS N' SETTINGS
Toggle for quick select pause.
Yup, not much else here. Very likely that this page used to have more options but can't say for sure.
Pretty funny that it's an option here though, even when you can toggle it through the main menu.
RATCHET ARMOR
Lets you change the armor for Ratchet. The different options are:
Commando Suit,
Tetrafiber Armor,
Duraplate Armor,
Electrosteel Armor
and Carbonox Armor.
Infiltrator Editor
With the debug mode enabled, you can press R1+R2+L1+L2 on an Infiltrator puzzle to get this menu up. With this, you can edit how the Infiltrator puzzles work.
Bolt Mining Debug
Whenever you revisit an area with cheats enabled, you can get this debug prompt up.
The intention behind bolt mining is to give you less bolt returns whenever you revisit an area. You can also activate this option by toggling the Minor option on the MAIN page.
Cheats
Unlock Challenge Mode
In the Special menu, holding down L1+L2+R1+R2+Circle will unlock Challenge Mode, and grant you access to the Shortcuts, Random Stuff and First Person Mode menus. Debug mode is not required to be enabled for this code to work.
Unlock Specials
Pressing L2+R2+Square on the Skill Points menu allows you to unlock all Skill Points. Likewise, pressing L2+R2+Circle allows you to unlock all Shortcuts and Random Stuff in those menus.
Electrolyzer
Pressing R1+R2+L1+L2 at the start of an Electrolyzer puzzle with cheats enabled allows you to skip it entirely.
Hoverbike Races
By using the same button combination as with the Electrolyzer puzzles, you can skip the races on Barlow and Joba as well.
Dev Console logs
By knocking in this code, you can enable developer console logs to pop up in the PCSX2 console. An example of how it looks is shown below.
