        Rise of the Triad, also known as ROTT, is certainly Apogee's

        greatest achievement yet.  It's full of surprises, has mind

        blowing graphics and sound, and in my opinion is worth every

        dime Apogee asks for the registered version.  However, it's not

        for the sensitive or younger player.  Young people under 14

        should not play this game due to its explicit, occasionally gory

        violence.  However, for the mature player looking for a howlin'

        blast-fest, this is a terrific game!

 

        Register the game!

 

        This file contains a complete list of cheat codes for ROTT.

        Most of the cheats have two codes; one is a normal word and

        the other is a three letter acronym preceded with a "\"

        backslash.  Either cheat code has the same effect.

 

        A note about ROTT powerups:  There can be two powerups active at

        a time.  They are displayed at the top of the screen a little to

        the right of center.  There are two "groups" of powerups; you

        can have one powerup from each group active, but powerups from

        the same group will override one another.  For example, if you

        have bulletproof armor, activating a gas mask or asbestos armor

        will replace the bulletproof armor.

 

        In addition, most of the advanced weapons are exclusive.  You

        can have one or two pistols (dual pistols look great but an MP40

        is better), and an MP40 submachine gun, and ONLY ONE OF:

        bazooka, heatseeker, drunk missile, firebomb, flame wall, or the

        "Hand of God".  Hit 1 to select the pistol, 2 to select dual

        pistols, 3 for the MP40 and 4 for the advanced weapon.

 

        In order to use any of the cheat keys, you have to first enable

        the cheats by typing DIPSTICK while in the game.  Typing it

        again will disable cheat keys.

 

        After you've enabled cheat keys, I suggest first using the

        CHOJIN cheat code.  It will make you invulnerable to enemies and

        hazards such as moving walls and spinning blades.  However, no

        cheat code will save you from dying if you jump off the edge

        of the game.

 

        I am fairly certain that this is a complete listing of cheat

        codes.  They are all grouped in one place in the ROTT.EXE file

        and are easy to find there.  Without further ceremony, here they

        are.

 

        ----------------------------------------------------------------

 

        Cheat Key: DIPSTICK     Also: \ECC

 

            This toggles (enables and disables) all the rest of the

            cheat keys.  Without cheat keys toggled on, none of the

            other cheats in this file can work!

 

 

        Cheat Key: CHOJIN       Also: \WWW

 

            This puts you in "Woundless With Weapons" mode.  It has two

            effects.  It makes you invulnerable to enemy fire and the

            various hazards of the game.  It also gives you unlimited

            ammunition for all your weapons, no matter which weapons you

            happen to be using!  This should be the first cheat code you

            use if you plan to cruise through the game.

 

 

        Cheat Key: GOTO         Also: \GTL

 

            This selects a new level.  You get a nice menu to select

            the level of your choice.

 

 

        Cheat Key: SIXTOYS      Also: \GAI

 

            This appears to give you all four keys and a bulletproof

            armor.  The message "Items-A-Plenty" confirms this cheat code.

 

 

        ZDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD?

        3 The following are "Type 1" powerups - selecting one of these   3

        3 will cancel another Type 1 powerup in use.                     3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: TOOSAD       Also: \GOD                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This puts you in God mode.  This is not the same as the  3

        3       God mode of previous Apogee games; this mode is truly    3

        3       neat!  Your height increases by about six feet - you     3

        3       look down on your enemies as if they were children.  And 3

        3       your weapon is the Hand of God - the most powerful       3

        3       weapon in the game, it is a "smart" weapon that kills    3

        3       many enemies at once.                                    3

        3                                                                3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: FLYBOY       Also: \MER                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       Here's another great cheat.  This lets you fly!  No more 3

        3       bouncing up to ledges or negotiating complicated         3

        3       catwalks!  Using it is like flapping wings - you have to 3

        3       keep hitting the space bar (or the joytick/mouse button  3

        3       defined as the "Use" button) to stay aloft.              3

        3                                                                3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: BADTRIP      Also: \SHR                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This cheat code is rather crippling, but it is a         3

        3       testament to the imagination of the authors.  It's       3

        3       called "Shrooms" mode, and basically it's a bad drug     3

        3       trip!  The whole room swoons and rocks, and enemies are  3

        3       just colored silhouettes!  Good luck aiming that MP40!   3

        3                                                                3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: BOING        Also: \ELA                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This is another somewhat negative cheat, but it's also   3

        3       interesting.  You have no inertia, the floor offers no   3

        3       friction, and the walls are perfectly elastic!  At the   3

        3       slightest movement, including a hit from an enemy or     3

        3       recoil from your weapons, you start bouncing around      3

        3       almost uncontrollably!                                   3

        @DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDY

 

        Cheat Key: GOOBERS      Also: \GOO

 

            This restarts the game.

 

 

        Cheat Key: WHACK        Also: \OOF

 

            You take a hit point.  "Ouch!!!!"

 

 

        Cheat Key: SPEED        Also: \RFA

 

            This turns on auto-run mode.  When you move while the Shift

            key is pressed, you are in "run" mode, and your movement is

            twice as fast.  You also have twice as much momentum.  This

            cheat code puts you in run mode full time.  The Caps Lock key

            has the same effect.

 

        Cheat Key: PANIC        Also: \PAN

 

            This resets you to basically just a pistol, no keys, no

            armor or powerups.  "Back to normal.  Ah."

 

 

        Cheat Key: DIMON        Also: \DON

 

            This turns on "light diminishing" - the property of the game

            in which objects appear dimmer when they are further away,

            especially in low light.  This is normally on anyway.  The

            game looks more realistic in this mode.

 

 

        Cheat Key: DIMOFF       Also: \DOF

 

            This turns light diminishing off.

 

 

        Cheat Key: LONDON       Also: \FON

 

            This turns on "Fog Mode" - the scene looks as though there's

            a light fog.  This is actually on by default in one level.

 

 

        Cheat Key: NODNOL       Also: \FOF

 

            This turns "Fog Mode" off.

 

 

        Cheat Key: SHINEON      Also: \SON

 

            This turns on "light sourcing" - the property where

            light-producing objects such as lamps, torches etc. appear

            to be the source of some or all the light in the area.  The

            game looks more realistic with this on.  This is normally

            on.

 

 

        Cheat Key: SHINEOFF     Also: \SOF

 

            This tuns light sourcing off.

 

 

        Cheat Key: GOGATES      Also: \L8R

 

            This takes you back to DOS without any further ado.  Very

            fast.

 

 

        Cheat Key: GOARCH       Also: \ECL

 

            This lets you "wuss out" on a level.  It's like you

            completed the level except that the game tells you you've

            wussed out and gives you a benefit-of-the-doubt bonus,

            before going on to the next level.

 

 

        Cheat Key: GOTA386      Also: \CON

 

            This turns off the cielings and floors, leaving them solid

            color.  Apparently this is the normal mode when the game

            runs on 386 machines.

 

 

        Cheat Key: GOTA486      Also: \COF

 

            This turns on the cielings and floors.  Since I have only

            tested the game on a 486, I have no idea what will happen if

            you enable this on a 386.

 

        ZDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD?

        3 The following are "Type 2" powerups - selecting one of these   3

        3 will cancel another Type 2 powerup in use.                     3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: SHOOTME      Also: \BAR                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This gives you "bulletproof armor", making you           3

        3       invulnerable to projectile weapons.                      3

        3                                                                3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: BURNME       Also: \FAR                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This gives you "asbestos armor", making you invulnerable 3

        3       to fire traps such as the floor flamejets.               3

        3                                                                3

        3                                                                3

        3   Cheat Key: LUNGDUNG     Also: \GAR                           3

        3                                                                3

        3       This gives you a gas mask, saving you from poison gas    3

        3       (where everything looks green).  This is kind of neat    3

        3       because it looks like you're looking through a gas mask! 3

        @DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDY

 

        Cheat Key: HUNTPACK     Also: \OFP

 

            "Outfit Player".  This gives you four keys, a bulletproof

            armor and a bazooka!

 

 

        Cheat Key: 86ME         Also: \DIE

 

            Feeling suicidal?  This will kill you.

 

 

        Cheat Key: REEN         Also: \REL

 

            This re-starts (or, RE-ENters) the current level.

 

 

        Cheat Key: JOHNWOO      Also: \GW2

 

            This gives you dual pistols!  You get two shots every time

            you fire, and it's reminiscent of watching an old western,

            except it's in the first person!

 

 

        Cheat Key: PLUGEM       Also: \GW3

 

            This gives you an MP40, a submachine gun with a decent rate

            of fire.  Although this is not the most powerful weapon in

            the game, I find it the most murderously satisfying.

 

 

        Cheat Key: VANILLA      Also: \GW4

 

            This gives you a bazooka, which is a straightforward

            single-shot rocket launcher.  It's a good basic

            anti-personnel weapon if you don't mind being splattered

            with the body parts of your victims...

 

 

        Cheat Key: HOTTIMES     Also: \GW6

 

            This gives you a heat-seeking missile.  It's good for

            fire-and-forget killing without making much effort to aim

            it, but it can be distracted by heat sources, such as

            torches.

 

 

        Cheat Key: BOOZE        Also: \GW7

 

            This gives you a Drunk Missile, which fires several rockets

            at once.  The rockets generally travel forward but their

            flight is erratic and their exact target is never known.

            This is usually not a problem; at least one of the rockets

            will likely hit what you aimed at.

 

 

        Cheat Key: FIREBOMB     Also: \GW5

 

            This gives you a Fire Bomb, which launches an incendiary

            cluster bomb.  Quite devastating.

 

 

        Cheat Key: BONES        Also: \GW8

 

            This gives you a Flame Wall ("You Filched a Flame Wall!")

            which is a sort of upgraded Fire Bomb.  It creates an

            inferno along the wall it hits, taking out everything along

            its path!

 

 

        Cheat Key: SEEYA        Also: \GWC

 

            This gives you the Hand of God - it's the weapon from God

            Mode, but you don't grow in height.  Since this is a weapon

            choice and not a powerup, it doesn't "expire" after a short

            while like God Mode.  The Hand of God is really neat; it

            vaporizes most enemies and can take out several at once.

            For a fun time, enable both this and "ride" mode (see

            below)!

 

 

        Cheat Key: RIDE         Also: \CAM

 

            This toggles the "Missile Cam", so that each time you fire a

            projectile weapon, your view follows the missile until it

            hits!  This is usually more of a distraction than a useful

            feature but if you're using the Hand of God, it can be quite

            nifty!

 

 

        Cheat Key: WHERE        Also: \HUD

 

            This toggles the Heads Up Display, which is a set of

            numbers, presumably giving your gamefield co-ordinates, in

            the upper right corner.

 

 

        Cheat Key: \FUN

 

            I am not sure what the purpose of this is.  It appears to

            lock or pause the computer until you hit the Escape key.

 

 

        Cheat Key: RECORD

 

            This lets you record a demo!  Just type this and the game

            will ask what level you want to start from, then just start

            playing.

 

 

        Cheat Key: STOP

 

            When you are recording a demo, this "stops" the recording,

            and prompts you for a demo slot in which to save the demo.

 

 

        Cheat Key: PLAY

 

            This plays back a demo you have recorded!

 

        ----------------------------------------------------------------

 

        Other useful keys:

 

        F11 - changes the "gamma correction" level.  This can be used to

        quickly brighten a dark scene.

 

        Tab - Activates a level map, showing all the areas you have

        entered.

 

        Caps Lock - toggles Auto-Run mode.
