DevMessageIcon.png This game has a hidden developer message.
TextIcon.png This game has unused text.


Hmmm...
To do:
Regional differences between the US and the European versions of the game. One of them being the cutscenes in the US one being altered compared to the European version that is a closer match of the N64 version. There are also script changes, especially with the German ending.

Unused Item Text

Starting at offset 0x05117E in the file MENU.DAT, there is text for an unused set of items: the communicator, .45 caliber, M16, and... condoms.

English German Translation
Communicator

Communicator device, used to send and receive messages to other team members.
Kommunikator

IFlieeewatüüt.
A reference to Robbi, Tobbi und das Fliewatüüt.[1]
.45 caliber gun

A powerful handgun that stops even the fattest villains around. A must-have for every gun fanatic.
Fette .45er

Macht grosse Löcher.
Makes big holes.
M16 assault rifle

Assault rifle, standard weapon of the US Army. Can fire high-speed bursts of 5.56mm bullets. 
If you're looking for fun, seek no further.
M16 Sturmgewehr

Ist nur noch geil.
It's just awesome.
Condoms

Once the mission is over and Candice awaits, there's no better choice than the ribbed black ones. 
For extra pleasure. You don't want to save the world, evade enemy armies, only to get AIDS but some dumb hooker?
Lümmel-Tüten

Für Candice.
For Candice.

Unlike the item text that's actually used (available in four languages), this one is only in English and German (the latter of which is bizarrely succinct, considering that it's the development team's native language).

Developer Message

Also, near the end of MENU.DAT, there is a lengthy message from the development team.

These messages can be viewed in-game by typing TTOPFSECRETT as a password.
