Secret passages:
—————-
There is one in every level (except track # 1 and 3) and they’re all
hidden behind advertising hoardings. So keep an eye out on the backdrops.
Secret passages:
—————-
1 – Shopping arcade:
Even though there’s no secret passage, you can take the shortest route by
driving along the rails in the shopping arcade and following them down into
the garage.
2 – The station:
Climb up to the left when you leave the station. The first building on the
left has an Orangina hoarding on the top floor – drive through it.
3 – The aquarium:
No secret passage.
4 – The tanks:
Turn left after the start and you’ll come into the first straight. When you
draw level with the fifth building, and to the left of the second bonus,
you’ll see a giant Seat hoarding – drive through it.
5 – The Oriental park:
After the first outside stage (a lake with a red bridge), you’ll come back
into the town. You’ll immediately come upon four red Polo Jeans Ralph Lauren
stripes – drive through them.
6 – The fun fair:
Take the first straight after the start. After a few metres, you’ll see an
Orange hoarding near the bottom of the buildings on the right (there’s a
spaceship in front of it) – drive through it.
7 – The sewers:
When you emerge from the first tunnel, you’ll come into a large chamber before
diving down the second tunnel. You should go through the gate on the left
instead of through the second tunnel.
8 – The astroport:
Go through the bend after the start and head down the first straight. Keep going
straight at about middle height. At the end of the straight, the road turns left.
Don’t turn but drive instead through the large Samsung hoarding.
9 – The TV Station:
Around halfway through the level, you’ll come to a large open-air courtyard
(statues, etc.). Keep on into the town and drive as high up as possible. After
a few bends, you’ll come to a long straight. This curves gently to the right
in front of a huge purple Paco Rabanne window display – drive through it.
10 – The docks:
When you reach the second last bend before the finish, drive just above ground
level and keep going straight. Follow the rail. You’ll see a gate underneath
a Stop sign – drive through it.
11 – The autodrome:
Go through the green rings and take the bend to the right about halfway up.
On the wall to the right, you’ll see a huge hoarding in the shape of a Festina
watch face – drive through it.
12 – The rubbish dump:
Towards the end of the level, just after the green rings, you’ll see a large
hoarding showing a woman in a red slip. Drive through the green arrows.
Hidden Message:
—————
As a profile name if you type NATIGRE you will have an old school star field &
scroll text as well as some sound chip music. The scroll text is personal messages
from one of the programmers.
Fun fact, on the disk you can find a Track13. This is the music of the easter egg.
There was a bug in the easter egg as it was made on the PlayStation 2 version
(after the European master, for the US master, but was never released) the easter
egg was working in 640×480. so in the first patch of the PC version the easter
egg was also patched to match the game resolution.
