Star Wars Episode 1: Pod Racer - Cheats and Hints

SHARE:

Adjust text size:


Im not sure if many of you have played Star Wars Episode I Pod Racer or even heard of it. It was released around the time of Episode One and the main characters was Anakin Skywalker at the age of ten. If you remember, in the first episode, Anakin had to race so he could become free from slavery. The entire game is made at high speed, sometimes reaching to 600 miles per hour. It was extremely fun in multiplayer and it had a challenging single-player that sometimes posed some problems if you didnt have a joystick. These are some helpful advices:

Type those cheats during the game:

SW_IWANNABEAJEDIKNIGHT - God Mode ON/OFF
SW_PRINCESSLEIAISAHOTCOOKIE - All weapons accessable
SW_YODAWANTSTOBEAREALBOY - All racers appear tiny and green
SW_EWOKSTURNMEON
- All levels accessable
SW_THEFORCESUCKS_TRYSCIENTOLOGY - Instant death
SW_DONTSEEAUSTINPOWERS - Win current level
SW_IWISHMYDADDYWASDARTHVADER - Bonus level (DarkInsemination)
SW_ICANTBELIEVEIACTUALLYFELLFORTHISCRAP - Message "April Fool's"

Press at Wattos' shop [Ctrl][F4][4] and you will get 1.000 credits. You can repeat this five times max.

Easy $1000
On the screen you see after you choose a place to race in, go to buy parts. Select one of the items and hold Shift+F4+4. You should receive $1000. Note: You can only do this code five times after each race.

Ando Prime Shortcut
On any of the Ando Prime Snow levels, do one lap as usual. Then, when you come up to the starting line, veer off to the left and you should see that one of the tents is open. If you manage to go through the shortcut unscathed, you should be comfortably ahead of everyone else. You can repeat this on lap three also.

Easy $3000
When you are in the place you buy parts, get to what you want and then (in this order) press "Ctrl"-"F4"-"4". Note that it looks like the other code but is not. So make sure you press Ctrl instead of Shift.

A Time-Saver
DO NOT finish the Boonta Classic unless you are in first place. If you are in a different place, you obviously won't get the favorite (Sebulba), and you will have to sit through the impossible-to-skip ten-minute credits. So if you want Sebulba, quit before you are finished if you are not in first. It's a real time-saver!

High Floating
On any Oovo IV level just before exiting an anti-gravity tunnel pull up and keep pulling up away from the ground and if done right, after exiting you will keep floating in the air hugging the ceiling.

Play as Sebulba
Beat Galactic circuit and Sebulba will be on the racer select screen. Beat the first race in first place twice.

Hangar Taunts
Right before you go into the race, press spacebar when start race is selected.
