* Infinite Money Trick * (Also works on Saturn!)
OK, let's mention it after all. :)
All good glitches in this game seem to involve the Sword Brothers spell, and this is no exception. Make sure you have at least one jewel of some sort (Diamonds obviously work the best), then head for the Master Librarian's room. Cast the Sword Brothers spell, then talk to the Librarian during the spell's animation. Select the option to sell jewels. If necessary, sell all but one of one kind of jewel. Then, push Start to enter the equipment menu (this doesn't normally work; that's what the SB spell was for.) Equip your remaining jewel, then exit the equipment menu (Saturn players: you MUST use the Start button to exit the pause menu, not the B button.) Choose to sell your last jewel, then exit the Librarian's menus. You will now find that you have 255 of that jewel. I don't think I need to tell you what you can do with 255 diamonds...
* Wolf Bounce * (Also works on Saturn!)
Here's a neat trick you can use to get to a few areas before you were meant to. When Alucard (in Wolf form) returns to human form in mid-air, pushing D + Jump will allow you to do the Leap Stone Stomp... even if you don't have the Leap Stone! If you bounce off of the candles in the Giant Clock Room, you can get to the Alucart equipment and Olrox's Quarters without having gotten the Leap Stone first.
* Keep Your Alucard Equipment *
Well, I finally got this to work. Start a game with the 99 Luck code (see above). Then, when you get to the room with the 3 Wargs (before the room with Death), kill them all. Then, unequip everything but the Alucard Sword, the Necklace of J, and the Twilight Cloak, leaving you with a DEF rating of 12. Turn around, exit left, and return to this room. Kill the first Warg, then jump over the second. If you got hit (and you most likely will), use either a Pot Roast or a Turkey to heal so this next part won't kill you. After you jump the second Warg, stand there and let it lunge at you. It should send you flying out of the room and past Death. You will be unable to go to the Menu screen until you save the game, so head to the nearest Save Point and save. Also, if you ever enter the room with Death again, he'll steal your equipment anyway unless you undertake the optional battle with Gaibon and Slogra (see the walkthrough for more details.)
Перевод: Наконец-то у меня получилось. Начните игру с кодом на 99 Luck (см. выше). Затем, когда вы находитесь в комнате с 3 Warg'ами (перед комнатой со смертью), убейте их всех. Снимите всю экипировку кроме Alucard Sword, Necklace of J и Twilight Cloak, что сделает вашу защиту (DEF) равной 12. Повернитесь и идите налево. Перезайдите в комнату. Убейте первого Warg'а и перепрыгните через второго. Если Вас ударят (что произойдет скорее всего), используйте либо Pot Roast, либо Turkey для того чтобы не умереть от предстоящих махинаций. После того как перепрыгнете через второго Warg'а, встаньте и дайте ему вас толкнуть. Это должно помочь Вам вылететь с экрана и перелететь экран со Смертью.
Вам не дадут войти в меню, пока вы не сохраните игру, поэтому идите к ближайшему сэйв поинту и сделайте это. Также, если после этого вы войдете в комнату со Смертью повторно, он украдет всю вашу экипировку. Для того чтобы этого не случилось нужно убить Gaibon и Slogra.
(Я делал этот трик и без 99 Luck)
* Invisibility *
Go to one of the Portals, and use a Library Card. After Alucard does his animation, but before the pillar of light appears, press Up to teleport. When you come out of the teleport, you'll be invisible. After a while, you'll be able to control Alucard, but only his sword and shield will be visible. This will last until you leave the CD hallway adjacent to the Portal.
* Outer Wall CD Load Room Glitch * (Sort of works on Saturn)
This is kind of tricky to pull off. Enter the CD load hallway connecting the Outer Wall and the Portal there, then turn into a Wolf. Get as close as you possibly can to the right exit without changing screens. Then, jump straight up, and push right at the height of the jump to change screens. Immediately after pushing right, hold down and left. If done correctly, instead of ending up on the platform next to the door that leads to the CD load room, you'll end up on the slope directly underneath the CD load room. (Saturn players will find themselves warped back to the middle of the CD load room.)
This also works in the Reverse Outer Wall
* The Bat Glitch * (Untested on Saturn)
Immediately when collecting a Relic or a Life/Heart Max Up, morph into bat form. Uh... just try this for yourself.
When you're done laughing, try this. Walk up to a Relic or Max Up in Wolf form, then turn into Bat form as above. Um... again, just see this for yourself.
* The battle will never end! * (Untested on Saturn)
Save before you get into the battle with Richter and Shaft. Once there, see how many hits it will take you to defeat Shaft's orb. Then, reload and get into the battle again. This time, knock both Shaft and Richter down until one hit will kill them. Then equip a Bomb-type weapon (a Pentagram will do nicely), then activate it to kill both of them at once. Despite Richter's bloody death, the game will continue normally as if you had simply defeated Shaft. That is, until you decide to re-enter Richter's chamber (coming from the direction of the broken stairway). You'll find Richter waiting for you again! At that point, you can either take out Richter or Shaft (or both). Either way, after you beat them, nothing will happen and you'll be stuck in Richter's room. Use a Library Card to exit. I was told that you need to save after fighting the second Richter battle to clear out this glitch, but I didn't check what exactly happens if you go back to Richter's chamber without saving. I suppose you'd get to fight Richter again, but I'll find out for the next update.
* Beat the game with only four Vlad relics? * (Original Japanese PSX only)
I have been told that on the original Japanese PSX version, you do not need to collect the Eye of Vlad to get into Dracula's chamber. (You still need to defeat Death, however.) This does not work on any of the later versions.
* Extra Life/Heart Max Ups * (Saturn Version Only)
Here's a neat trick for Saturn players. Start a Richter or Maria game, and collect the two Life Max Ups in the Entrance (and the Heart Max Up too, if you like.) Then, go to the Alchemy Laboratory, then return to the Entrance to find that all three of the Max Ups have returned!
* Muramasa Glitch *
Equip the Muramasa, then unequip it using the Empty Hand. You'll still be in permanent Dark Metamorphosis, although you won't be able to get enemies to bleed with your fists. You can use cutting subweapons like the Dagger or the Axe though, and any blood you absorb this way will still count for powering up your Muramasa.
=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ::: The Great Percentage Race ::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
This section is devoted to the amazingly popular pastime of filling up the map screen with white squares. While some of these tricks seem on the surface to be similar to the various "hidden worlds" tricks in the original Metroid, in CSOTN you will very rarely find any actual new areas to explore. But there are a few minor exceptions... Note that these sections are not intended to be the complete guide to percentage glitching. For more information you should visit the following sites (warning: these links may change long before I update the FAQ again, and in fact PaleDim's site was down as this update "went to press.")
Machinegun's Glitch Site - http://www.geocities.com/machinegunsg/ PaleDim's Maps and Glitch FAQ - http://home.golden.net/~maggi/map.html
Once again, unless otherwise noted, these glitches will only work on PSX versions of the game.
* Sword Familiar Glitch *
While the Sword Familiar Glitch is probably the least important of the percentage hunting glitches, it is the classic one, and probably a good start for those who have just begun the art of glitching.
Head back to the Royal Chapel. At the very bottom of the first bell tower, walk up to the left exit (but don't enter.) Activate the Sword Familiar, and cast the Sword Brothers spell. Any time after the Sword begins its circling animation, you can walk left, and instead of switching screens, you'll simply waltz right out of the castle. (Contrary to previous versions of this FAQ, it is not necessary for you to be in Bat form for this trick to work.) If you did in fact switch screens, either your Sword Familiar's level is too low (it must be 90 or higher), or you walked too soon. Quickly change screens and wait a while longer, then try again. This trick also works at this same spot in the inverted castle. You can get up to 210.2% this way, but that's just where the fun begins. By using the Shield Rod or Mablung Sword along with the Alucard Shield, you can trigger even more rooms on the map. Just about anywhere you're "falling" at the bottom of the screen, or you can gravity jump against the side of the screen, triggering the Shield Rod Combo will give you an extra room. (For more details, check out n3m3s1s's Sword Brothers Glitch FAQ at <a href="gamefaqs.com;://www.gamefaqs.com;" target="_blank"></a> he explains this better than I have.) You can rack up a fair bit more percentage that way, but the fun is still not over. Anyplace you can double jump off the top of the screen, you can trigger the Shield Rod combo for an extra room... but this often requires incredible pixel-perfect timing. You need to hit the combo at the height of Alucard's second Leap Stone jump. If done correctly, Alucard should be completely invisible, but even that doesn't necessarily mean you were high enough. If you have the patience, you can get up to 226.0% this way. Or you can just cheat. The Heart Refresh works as well as the Alucard Shield combo, and with a Duplicator and two of them, you can always get your room. Immediately after the double jump, activate a Heart Refresh. While the first one is going off, press and hold the other attack button. That way, the second one will fire off almost immediately after the first one ends (Alucard will go through a frame of animation in the meantime.) Then, while the second one is going off, press and hold the first attack button. Keep alternating in this way until Alucard slowly begins to come down from the double jump. Since you set of a Heart Refresh at every frame of animation (if you did this right), you will get the room.
* The Clock Tower Glitch *
Head for the Clock Tower and open the grate there (see the Frequently Asked Questions section if you don't know how to do this.) Then, stand in the area where the grate used to be, then using either the Axe subweapon or a Bomb-type weapon (Power of Sire, etc.) hit the gear above the doorway. This will cause the grate to close again, pushing you through the floor.
You can do a similar trick in the Inverted Castle. This time, click all three gears except the one closest to the grate. Now, walk up to the grate and hold right while continuously firing off the Power of Sire (Axe, whatever). If you do this right, you'll enter the next room, but the grate will be closed again when you try to return, and you'll get forced into the ceiling. (You can also do this with Richter.)
* The Wolf Glitch *
This is an extremely difficult glitch to pull off, so fortunately in most where the Wolf Glitch comes in handy you can use the slower but easier Double Heart Refresh glitch instead. :) Anyway, here's how this works. Any place you can find a stairway, transform into Wolf form, then dash at the stairway. Right before you reach it, tap the jump button and transform back into Alucard. If you timed it right, you'll find yourself stuck under the floor. From here you can use Heart Refreshes to grab some white rooms on your map underneath whatever room you're actually in. This is very difficult to explain, so I recommend checking out Machinegun's website for a better explanation (with pictures! :)
What makes the Wolf Glitch somewhat more interesting is that you can use to do some interesting things (like get Alucard into that little space underneath the grate at the beginning of the game, or skip Richter and go directly to the second castle, etc.) I'll explain these in more detail later.
* The Double Heart Refresh Glitch * (Also works on Saturn!)
While the slowness of this trick makes it almost as annoying to pull off as the extremely difficult to time Wolf Glitch, this one is much easier to do. We've already seen the Double Heart Refresh trick earlier, but here's how to use it as a "replacement" for the Wolf Glitch: First, equip two Heart Refreshes and a Duplicator. Find a doorway, then jump toward it as if you wanted to jump into the next screen. Before you switch screens though, activate a Heart Refresh. While that one is going off, press and hold down the other attack button. When the second Heart Refresh goes off, press and hold down the first attack button. Continue doing this, but be sure you hold the directional pad toward the doorway. You'll notice between Heart Refreshes that Alucard will get in a frame of animation. However, the next screen will never load if you do it right, and once Alucard starts his landing animation he'll continue to sink down into the floor. Once he gets to the bottom of the screen, you can stop Heart Refreshing.
This will also if you start using the Heart Refreshes as you're falling off the bottom of the screen. If you do enough, you'll end up at the bottom of the screen below once you stop Heart Refreshing. Use too many and...
* The White Waterfall * (Also works on Saturn!)
This is usually considered cheating by most percentage glitchers. Start a Double Heart Refresh as described above, but this time keep on using them. For about every 35 or so Heart Refreshes you use before stopping, a new room will get highlighted on the map. Basically, given any room in the castle, you can create a "white waterfall" underneath it all the way down to the bottom of the map if you're persistent enough.
* The Elevator Glitch * (Original Japanese Version Only)
Equip a weapon like the Estoc that has a dash move (either by default or by a B, F + Attack motion.) Then head for the Outer Wall elevator. Trigger the dash attack so that you'll dash across the elevator, but hold down as you do so. The elevator will head downward, and so will Alucard... but Alucard won't be in the elevator! He'll end up outside the Outer Wall. This won't work on any of the newer versions of the game, but the rooms you can get from this trick can still be obtained via the Wolf Glitch.
* The Wolf Dash Trick * (Saturn Version Only)
If you compare the map of the Inverted Caverns on the Saturn version to the maps of the PSX version, you'll notice that three rooms are missing in the Saturn version. Two of them are in the long hallway that leads to the Force of Echo. They're easy to pick out on the automap, since they're the two rooms missing on the top row. The other is early on in the hallway with the $2000 bag. (I haven't been able to get the one there, however.)
To get them, you'll need to do a wolf super-jump, which works something like this. Find a steep slope (it doesn't need to be large, just fairly steep.) Then, from about half-screen away (it may try some trial and error to find the right spot), do the D, DF, F + Attack Wolf Smash. Jump _just_ before you hit the slope and your Wolf should go flying into the ceiling. :)
* The Sword Brothers Save Glitch *
This was found on a Japanese site somewhere, and since I can't read Japanese all I have to go on is a Babelfish translation. Apparently the point of this trick was to get an Alucard with exceptionally high stats. However nobody has reported having this happen. What usually _does_ happen is that your map screen will get scrambled (mine was completely scrambled, although partial scrambling seems to be more common), and you can re-explore any "lost" areas to increase your percentage. On occasion, you may also find that any items you've collected will be reset, so you can collect them again. (Note that since you can get practically infinite percentage without actually finding any new rooms using this glitch, it is usually not considered to be a "legitimate" percentage glitch.)
Anyway, step one is MAKE A BACKUP OF WHATEVER SAVE YOU ARE GOING TO TRY THIS ON! This trick _is guaranteed_ to make a mess of your save, and there's no guarantee that it will be a good mess. You might want to back up any other saves on the memory card you don't want to lose as well. With that out of the way, it goes something like this:
0) MAKE A BACKUP! (You have been warned!) 1) Head for a save room. 2) Cast the Sword Brothers spell. Like the Infinite Money trick, this allows you to enter the pause menu during times when you normally couldn't. 3) Start a save. 4) While the save is in progress, enter the equipment menu and change your equipment around. (What exactly you're supposed to do here is unclear at the moment. Try switching stuff around, leaving the pause menu entirely, coming back, switching more stuff around, etc.) Equipping the AxeLord Armor somewhere along the way seems to be the best way to get something interesting to happen. 5) When you're tired of fooling with the equipment menu, exit the pause menu and let the save finish. 6) Restart the game, and attempt to reload.
While you can do this on the Saturn version, it doesn't actually seem to affect your save in any way.
