Barry Burton ending:
The only way to see Barry is if ending B is unlocked.
To get this ending, jump off the bridge when fighting Nemesis
Type B. After the jump off decision, the final area of the game
will take a somewhat different path. You will have to fight off
Nicholai in a chopper. It is recommended that you bring a Magnum
and Grenade Launcher (or Rocket Launcher if it has been found).
You can also choose to negotiate with him.

and Dixon Hill.
Barry Burton ending 2:
Jump off the bridge. Play until you reach the room
with the Radar Tracker. Take it, and try to leave the room using
the door you entered. Nicholai will call you. After killing him,
Carlos will enter. After talking with him, leave the room (do
not use the hatch to the Rail Cannon). Turn around and get in
the radar device room again. Carlos and Jill will listen to a
radio call from Barry and the game will continue with the final
scenes.

Enhanced Weapons/Ammo:
You can only create enhanced ammo while playing under
the hard difficulty setting. When creating ammo with the reloading
tool, save enough gunpowder to mix up the same type of ammo eight
times. On the eighth time, the game will prompt "Do you want
to create the enhanced ammo?". Select "Yes". This
ammo is more powerful, may have slightly different effects, and
once loaded into a weapon will change it into an "enhanced
weapon". You can only create two types of enhanced ammo:
9mm handgun bullets and shot gun shells. The only different effects
the new bullets have is that they are far more powerful.
Information in this section was contributed by Robin Statham
and Thomas Wilde.
Hint: Saving A.R. ammunition:
When you are low on ammunition, go to a nearby storage
system and take out A.S. rounds. Combine it with the A.R. and
put the rounds back into storage. You will be restored and still
have space for more items.

Hint: Saving shotgun ammunition:
Wait for a zombie to get close, then aim up and you
will shoot him in the head, killing him with one shot.
Information in this section was contributed by LiLBill1188.
Wait for two zombies to line up close to each other. Then, aim
up and fire to shoot both their heads off. Note: This may require
some practice.
Information in this section was contributed by Knightforgotten.
Hint: Saving ammunition and time:
When fighting the spiders, after you kill one all the
little spiders, come out. They will run out of the room and when
you come back in, all the small spiders are gone. You will not
waste bullets and time shooting them.
Information in this section was contributed by Devilscup114.
Hint: Sneak past monsters:
If you can walk behind a monster, keep tapping Run
quickly. Jill will not make any sound of footsteps and seems to
"glide". The monsters cannot hear you and subsequently
will not turn around and attack. Note: This works best with the
Drain Deimos.
Information in this section was contributed by skippy2k10.
Hint: Additional slots:
When you first get to the trolley, Carlos will give
you a "fanny" pack. After you finish the game, you will
keep those additional two slots in the game.
Information in this section was contributed by DSurma3210.
Hint: Starting the trolley:
The oil additive needed to start the trolley is located
in a locked store room inside the sales office. To unlock it,
pick up the flashy remote on a desk to turn on a TV. You will
see a commercial about some product from Ubrella Corp. Make note
of that product (Safsprin, Adravil, Aquacure, etc.). Go to the
nearby computer where Carlos just shot his zombied friend. You
will be prompted for a password. Type in the name of the product
to unlocked the storeroom.

Hint: Sub-Station transformer puzzle:
When you go into the Sub-Station, there are two metal
shutters. To open them, go to the only left you can make and press
X on the box. Swicth the machine to manual mode. Turn around
and go to the other box. Press X on that box. You have
four buttons ("Red", "Blue", "Restart",
"Cancel"). To open the shutters, press "Red",
"Red", "Red", "Blue". Then. press
"Red", "Blue", "Blue", "Blue".
When you go into the room closest to the shutter, there will be
either a Magnum or a Grenade Launcher (whatever you did not get
in the police station). When you come out, there will be a few
zombies smashing at the door. If you want to continue to work
peacefully, increase the electricity output to see zombies meet
electricity. If you go out the emergency exit, prepare to fight
Nemesis. In the second door, there is the fuse. Note: If you go
down by the emergency exit, there are three Gunpowder B.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
Hint: Fighting Nemesis:
The Nemesis is left-handed and uses that hand to grab
you. When fighting him, shoot him two times and run past his right
side. Shoot twice and repeat the process. Note: This only works
when he does not have his Rocket Launcher and if you are using
the handgun.
Information in this section was contributed by Mark Hannan.
To defeat Nemesis in mercenary mode, choose Mikhail. He has the
hardest and best weapons. Before you reach the bar, you will hear
footsteps and two Nemesis with rocket launchers will appear. Equip
your launcher and aim it at Nemesis. The first shot will knock
them down, then fire at the second one. You can now do one of
things; run (be careful as the first Nemesis will be getting to
its feet, or fight it out. If you choose to fight, wait until
Nemesis stands and shoot him. You will get 20 seconds when you
shoot them the second time.
Information in this section was contributed by Rob.
In easy mode, if Nemesis has a rocket launcher use the assault
rifle at him. If he aims at you, quickly avoid him. If he does
not have a rocket launcher, use the shotgun. Duck when he tries
to catch you. When he is holding you, press all buttons as fast
as possible because he will kill you. If his body is shaking while
he is lying down, it indicates that he is still alive.
Information in this section was contributed by macapanton.
In hard mode, use the grenade launcher to defeat him. If he is
in the ground, look carefully at his body. If it is shaking it
indicates that he is still alive. Shoot him while he is lying
down. If you are in a small room, go to a bigger room to run or
to defeat him in the larger room (for example, the main hall in
the police station or before the entrance to the police station).
Information in this section was contributed by macapanton.
If you need some room to fight Nemesis, do the following. When
you fight Nemesis in the restaurant/newspaper building, choose
to fight him in the restaurant. It is a loss of Carlos' help,
but when he appears, hide in the kitchen. After he gets knocked
out from the explosion, if in hard mode, take the package(EAGLE
Parts B), and run out. After you talk with Carlos, go to the shopping
district save point and get ready to fight Nemesis. Bring a handgun.
You can now fight him in the area between the city hall gates,
newspaper office, and alley. There is a First Aid Spray in the
newspaper building and a safe room nearby. You should have enough
room to even defeat him with the handgun.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
When you must fight Nemesis on the train, instead of fighting
him, go back through the door you came in. A short intermission
sequence will start.
Information in this section was contributed by thomas bonthelius.
Hint: Nemesis Type 2 in mercenary mode
and 220 second bonus:
Get to the parking garage, then exit out of the door.
If you still have over two minutes left, run to the end of the
bus and you will see Nemisis Type 2. He will jump down and come
after you. You can run around him to avoid his attacks and save
ammo or you can kill him for 220 seconds. Note: This trick best
works with Mikhail
Information in this section was contributed by Lawrence Derosiers Jr.
Hint: 78 second bonus in mercenary mode:
As any character, get to the branched zone, directly
after the Raven's nest, You will see a barrel with zombies nearing
your position. Just shoot the barrel -- it does not matter if
you do not kill all of them. However, the more you kill, the more
time you receive. This usually results in a 78 second bonus.
Information in this section was contributed by Keith Chan.
Hint: 44 second bonus in mercenary mode:
As Mikhail, go past the city grounds gate and towards
the Raccoon City Press. Before you reach the Press building, you
will encounter a swarm of zombies. Equip the shotgun and blast
away towards the densely occupied areas, thus resulting in a 44
second bonus. If you blast more than that, you will get an additional
22 second bonus. Note: Do not use the 44 second bonus if you are
low on ammunition.
Information in this section was contributed by Keith Chan.
Hint: Extra Nemesis fight in mercenary
mode:
In the parking lot, there will be some zombies. If
you do not kill the last two nearest to the door, when you go
out in front of the bus you will have to face Nemesis as you did
when you were playing as Carlos in the actual game (with all of
his tentacles). If you do not stop running, you probably will
not have to face him. Note: He only comes down when you go to
the viewpoint in which you can see the top of the bus. Also, it
is not smart to fight him because it must be done with a rocket
launcher and some zombied friends.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
Hint: Save ammunition against Nemesis in
mercenary mode:
When you face Nemesis in the room after the bus (with
the other zombies), try to get a zombie between you and Nemesis.
Nemesis will not hesitate to attack the zombie to get to you,
which takes less bullets to get past that room.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
Hint: Kill regular Nemesis for 60 seconds
of bonus time:
Knocking him down the first time is worth a 20 second
bonus. Knocking him down a second time will cause him to look
dead with a pool of blood around him and is worth a 40 second
bonus.
Information in this section was contributed by Lawrence Derosiers Jr.
Hint: Destroy Nemesis' Rocket Launcher:
This trick requires a large number of health items
and first aid sprays. When you fight the Nemesis with the Rocket
Launcher, aim up. If he targets you, run and try to make him waste
ammunition. After four to seven shots from him, he will reload,
but the rocket launcher will turn red and explode.
Information in this section was contributed by Lawrence Derosiers Jr.
When you hear the reload sound he makes with his launcher and
he aims at you, shoot him when he is about to shoot you. Almost
always, the launcher will backfire and explode.
Information in this section was contributed by OoaSnxoO.
Hint: Loose parts from Nemesis:
Whenever you kill Nemesis in Hard Mode, you can always
pick up a package that he drops, containing gun parts. Once these
are assembled, they form the Eagle 6.0 STI. This gun is more convenient
than the standard handgun. Once you get close to a zombie, aim
directly at its head and fire. If performed correctly, you will
shoot its head off just like what a magnum regularly would, and
it only consumes regular handgun bullets.
Information in this section was contributed by Keith "The Outcast" Chan.
Hint: Help from Nemesis:
When in Sub Station, after getting the fuse the game
prompts for a live selection. Do not do anything. You will have
to kill all the Zombies by yourself. When you get outside, a short
intermission sequence will happen. Zombies will attack you, and
Nemesis will blow them up with his rocket launcher. However, you
are his next target.
Information in this section was contributed by Darius Kuizinas.
Hint: Avoiding Nemesis:
To avoid fighting Nemesis, go through the door you
need to enter. When you are in S.T.A.R.S., you will need a key.
To get it without the card go to the password machine (where
you get the blue gem) and enter "4011".
Information in this section was contributed by Guillermo Aponte.
Hint: Fighting a Doggie:
Knock down a Doggie, then aim down and you can fire
faster on it. If you do not aim down, you have to wait until the
Doggie stands up.
Information in this section was contributed by Dixon Hill.
Hint: Humanoid sighting:
When fighting the Nemesis for the last time in the
Rail Gun Room, you will see a figure in the background, similar
to Nemesis. Closely observe the creature to see that it is the
Humanoid, or the Mutated William Burken from Resident Evil
2. When you press Action, Jill describes it as "One
of Umbrella's New Biotech Weapons".
Information in this section was contributed by Keith Chan.
Hint: Alternate meeting with Carlos:
You can meet Carlos at the top floor of the newspaper
building instead of the restaurant when you first come out of
the area after you fought the first Licker. You will hear Carlos
taking out a few zombies. Ignore that and go to Jill's left. Enter
the door at that location. You will now be at the alley directly
behind the restaurant. From here, make your way to the newspaper
office. After meeting Carlos, Nemesis appears. You will get to
make a choice to "Jump out the window", or "Hide
in the back". Note: To get the green gem, go back to the
restaurant and go down the ladder. Then, check the police officer
down there. He should have it.
Information in this section was contributed by Lans712781.
Hint: Aqua Hunter caution as Carlos:
When you gain control of Carlos, beware of the Aqua
Hunters that are in the Artificial Environment tank. When fighting
them, keep firing your weapon as much as possible. When they grab
you, tap on the buttons as much as you can or they will eat you
whole.
Information in this section was contributed by Keith Chan.
Hint: The Worm:
You actually do not have to fight the Worm the first
time you meet him, when you fall into the sewer. After he pops
out of the wall the first time, just run to your right and hit
the first switch (make sure the worm comes out of the wall). Then,
run to the other side of the sewer and hit the second switch (this
one may be difficult -- also make sure the worm comes out again).
Then, press the button for the ladder and you just saved yourself
some life and ammunition.
Information in this section was contributed by Lans712781.
Hint: Defeating the Worm:
Use the following trick to defeat the Worm without
wasting good ammunition. Walk slightly into the Worm's little
section slowly until the screen starts to shake and he appears.
Back up to the wall and shoot him with the handgun. If the worm
does reach you, which is not very often, Jill will usually dodge
to the right. Repeat until it is defeated. To defeat the second
Worm, run around for two minutes and try not to take damage. After
that time, the light pole will begin to spark. Use the handgun
to shoot in the direction of the two sparking poles and they will
fall into a puddle. Stand near (not in) the puddle, then wait
for the worm to go into the water and fry to death.
Information in this section was contributed by LionHeart708.
Hint: Custom shotgun:
Play the game under the hard difficulty setting. Defeat
Nemesis for the fourth time and pick up the small silver box that
he dropped. It will contain M37 Parts A. Defeat Nemesis a fifth
time and get the M37 Parts B. Combine these two parts to get a
western custom shotgun with six rounds. This gun uses the standard
12 gauge shotgun shells.
Information in this section was contributed by Fritzws007.
Hint: Grenade Launcher or Magnum:
Your timing will determine whether the Grenade Launcher
or the Magnum can be found at the S.T.A.R.S. Office. If you go
to the cabinet before the radio goes off, when you try to leave
you will get the Grenade Launcher. If you go to the cabinet after
the radio goes off you will get the Magnum. Whichever weapon is
obtained, the other will be found in the power plant.
Information in this section was contributed by bigpimpinyahoe.
Hint: Grenade launcher:
Use the S.T.A.R.S Card in the computer in the main
entrance of the Police Station. When you get the S.T.A.R.S Emblem
Key, go to the S.T.A.R.S Office. When you are in the office, go
to the big locker next to the out-of-commission message receiver.
Open the locker and you will get a Grenade Launcher.
Information in this section was contributed by goodb.
There are two different ways to get the Grenade launcher. There
is one in the Sub-Station when the game is first played. The other
is available after the game has been completed once. Go to the
S.T.A.R.S. office and go were the Magnum gun was originally obtained.
Information in this section was contributed by PIKA97115.
Hint: Rocket launcher:
In the dead factory, go to the machine next to the
water sample puzzle. Use the facility key where that game states
a small plastic card can be inserted. Take the other facility
key that is given and go to the steaming room where the small
card activated elevator is located .Go down and use the facility
key on the door where that game states a small plastic card can
be inserted. You will find a rocket launcher with four shots at
this location.
Information in this section was contributed by GoDSpDX71.
Hint: STI Eagle handgun:
Kill Nemesis two times under the hard difficulty setting
to get the two parts for it. Combine them to get the STI Eagle
handgun.
Information in this section was contributed by XxScorepionxX.
Hint: Assault rifle with unlimited ammo
(hard mode):
Kill Nemesis seven times in your first game and he
will drop the assault rifle. Kill him seven times in your second
game he will drop an infinite ammo case.
Information in this section was contributed by footman83.
Hint: Conserve assault rifle ammunition:
Set the mode to "Manual". Every time you
shoot, only three rounds will be used and the total percentage
of ammo left will decrease by about 1%. Use the assault rifle
like this until you can fire it without wasting large amounts
of ammunition when it is set to "Auto".
Information in this section was contributed by Shotgunner.
Hint: Quicker Rail Cannon charge up:
When you are fighting the final Nemesis and have all
the batteries pushed in to operate the Rail Cannon, while you
hear the Rail Cannon charging, press Circle button to go
to the menu. Wait until you hear the Rail Cannon when it sounds
like it is almost done charging. Do this so that you are not running
around while the Cannon is charging and get killed. After you
exit the menu, the announcer will start counting down. Make sure
that the final "Nemesis" is almost in front of the Rail
Cannon when you go into the menu, because he will likely move
around a lot when he is directly in front of the Cannon and you
will miss. You can keep doing this process to kill him quicker
and consume less health.
Information in this section was contributed by Sarah Good.
Hint: Shoot on knee:
This can only be done if you have a pistol out. When
you dodge and roll, hold X to stay on your knee and shoot
in that position. This may effect the speed of the gunfire.
Hint: Killing multiple zombies with shotgun:
You can easily blast off the heads of multiple zombies
with a shotgun. Get some zombies close together. Aim the shotgun
up. Get close to the zombies (but not too close). While the shotgun
is aimed up, and you are close, fire. Note: This works well for
Mikhail in the mercenaries mode.
Hint: Get vaccine:
When playing as Carlos in the Hospital 4F, go to the
unlocked Sickroom and look at the corner where the movable cabinet
is located. Remember where it is. Read the note on the dead doctor's
hands in that room. Use the Sickroom Key on the next room over.
In that room, push the cabinet in the opposite corner of where
the cabinet in the previous room was found. For example, if the
first cabinet is in the upper left corner of the first sickroom,
than push the second cabinet into upper right corner of the second
sickroom. A painting in the room will slide, revealing a machine
holding the vaccine base. Enter the numbers that were on the dead
doctor's note in order to obtain the vaccine base.
Hint: Vaccine medium combination:
One of the combinations when making the vaccine medium
in the hospital is I, III, and A.

Hint: Mine Thrower with tracking, enhanced
shots:
Either get $9999 in Mercenary mode and buy unlimited
ammunition or use the infinite ammo kit obtained from Nemesis
on the Mine Thrower. The Mine Thrower will have tracking bullets
which will show the directions to the zombies.
Information in this section was contributed by RESIDENTEVIL321.
Hint: Unlimited money and time in mercenaries
mode:
Get to the alley that has three dogs and a crate. Kill
two of the dogs get on the crate. Continuously dodge the remaining
dog for a time and money bonus for dodging.
Information in this section was contributed by Cloud40587.
Hint: Civilian locations in mercenaries
mode:
The civilians that must be saved in mercenaries mode
may be found at the following locations. Note: You must save them
in this order or some of them will die. Also, You must kill all
the enemies in the room with the civilians or they will not be
saved.

1. Gas Station
2. Basement of the Restaurant
3. Third Floor of the Raccoon Press Office
4. Sub Station (where you got the fuse)
5. Sales Office
6. The Bar
Hint: Mercenary mode item box:
Once you complete mercenary mode with each character
and bought all the weapons you can access the item box, but it
only contains a knife.
Information in this section was contributed by Brian Sherrane.
Hint: S rank in mercenary mode:
Get the combat knife, kill many monsters, rescue all
civilians, and do not use healing items. Then kill every monster
with the knife. You should end up with over an hour and some change.
Information in this section was contributed by Brian Sherrane.
Hint: 330 seconds in mercenary mode:
Go to the part of the mercenary mission with two Nemeses
and take out your knife. The Nemeses will kill each other, and
you will earn 330 seconds.
Information in this section was contributed by Brian Sherrane.
Hint: Larger reward in mercenary mode:
Try to reach the area near the goal (just after the
dimly lit hallway, near the intersection) with more than four
minutes remaining on the game clock. Two more of the STARS-killing
Nemeses will appear, both armed with makeshift rocket launchers!.
This achievement results in a larger reward from the Big Fat Boss.
Information in this section was contributed by Nielsen Caruncho.
Hint: Saving ammunition as Mikhail in mercenary
mode:
When in mercenary mode, it is easy to waste ammunition.
The following is a list of guns and the enemies they are most
effective against when playing as Mikhail.
Magnum: Hunters
Shotgun: Zombie dogs and zombies
Rocket Launcher: Nemesis
Running past: Crows (especially) and most zombies
Note: If you save the civilian in the third floor of the Raccoon
City Press, you will get Shotgun Shells. If you save the civilian
in the basement of the restaurant (which is just a cleaner Brad
from the beginning of the game) you will get Magnum Bullets. Running
past zombies is also a good way to save ammo.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
When in mercenary mode, if you are fast enough, you do not have
to shoot any crows at all, which in return saves ammo for any
gun.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
Hint: Identity of the rewarder in mercenary
mode:
The identity of the fat man who hands out the reward
money in mercenary mode is Brian Irons, the police chief. To confirm
this, look at his shirt.
Information in this section was contributed by Phantom Stranger.
Hint: Easy A rank:
To get an easy A rank in hard or easy mode, complete
the first game in new mode. After beating the first mode, the
game will show "Next Game" 00-00. Go to mercenary mode
and earn enough to buy a infinite Rocket Launcher and Assault
Rifle. On hard mode, you will unlock four costumes at the boutique
shop and epilogue. On easy mode you will unlock the four costumes.
To get an A rank, use the assault rifle on zombies, etc. Use the
Rocket Launcher on Nemesis. Note this will only work if you shoot
all the monsters in your way. Shoot your way all the way through
to the trolley. Once you get to the clock tower. save the game
at the chapel or living room. However, only once to get the A
rank. Bringing health is recommended.
Information in this section was contributed by Shokriag.
Hint: Get the S.T.A.R.S. card faster:
This trick allows you to get the S.T.A.R.S. card faster
without having to go further into the police station and wasting
ammo for Jill's card for the computer to get the password to the
drawer where the S.T.A.R.S. Room Key is located. After Brad is
dead near the entrance of the police station, you have choose
between fighting the monster or entering the police station. Choose
to fight the monster. When you do this, remember that Nemesis
is left handed. When he comes at you, run past his right side
and you will not get hurt. You should get near Brad's body so
you can check it. If completed; you can grab his card case and
dodge Nemesis to enter the doors of the police station. When inside,
go into the items menu and check on the card case to get his S.T.A.R.S.
card. You can use it on computer for the password for the S.T.A.R.S.
Room Key.
Information in this section was contributed by Nocturnal Messiah.
Hint: Killing Zombies quicker under the
hard difficulty setting:
If you are using shotgun rounds, wait until the zombie
is directly in front of you, then aim up to fire. This will blow
their head off, killing them immediately and save one round of
shotgun ammo per zombie. If you are using handgun rounds, carry
your knife, and only shoot them until they fall. Then, finish
them off with the knife.
Information in this section was contributed by robin statham.
Hint: Getting Mikhail to kill Zombies with
the oil drum:
Get everything except the oil, then go to the trolley.
If you destroyed the oil drum, Mikhail will throw a grenade killing
the zombies. But if you did not destroy the oil drum, Mikhail
will kick it towards the Zombies and shoot it with his gun, killing
them.

Hint: Checking zombies:
To tell if zombies are still active after they are
hit, leave the room. If the zombie is still on the floor, he is
still active.
Information in this section was contributed by Nn10doNerd.
Walk back and forth in front of their head or enable the auto
aim feature and press Aim.
Information in this section was contributed by RESIDENTEVIL321.
If you are not sure if a zombie or a dead body is present, look
for a shadow. If there is a shadow under the corpse, it is still
alive. When you see no shadow or when it lies in a pile of blood,
it is dead.
Information in this section was contributed by Thibaut Hox.
If you are not sure if a zombie is dead, walk up fairly close
to it (but not so close that they start chewing your ankles) and
simply back up. If the Zombie is alive, the character will do
a wary backup move instead of the standard backup done when there
is nothing there.
Information in this section was contributed by OctoberWarlock.
Walk past a zombie on the floor. If its head moves to watch you,
it is alive.
Information in this section was contributed by WindraStorm.
After you shoot a zombie a couple of times and he falls, check
to see if any blood comes from him.
Information in this section was contributed by D. Gosse.
Hint: Detecting enemies:
In order to tell whether or not there is an enemy that
you can hear, but cannot see (off screen), turn in the opposite
direction of where the enemy may be, and press Aim. If
there is an enemy present, your character will turn around and
aim in the direction of the enemy. If nothing is there, your character
will just aim in the direction you are facing. This also is useful
if you are not sure if a taken down zombie is actually dead.
Information in this section was contributed by Joe Colunga.
Hint: Opening the emergency door:
The emergency exit door at the sub-station can not
be opened by any means except choosing to open it on the live
selection when the zombies attack when you come out of the door.
Information in this section was contributed by Aaron Banschick.
Hint: Run on one foot:
When running, quickly and repeatedly tap Square.
Jill will run on one foot, and her other foot will never touch
the ground.
Information in this section was contributed by TeMpSFGSK.
Hint: Spinning Jill:
Note: A controller with an auto-fire feature is required
for this trick. Turn on the auto-fire, then have Jill walk backwards
and press the bvutton to have her turn around. If done correctly,
she will spin around on one foot.

to will see a sign that says "OTOM for U...S Senat".
Information in this section was contributed by David Kampfman.
Hint: Locker combination:
When entering the Police Station and going into the
door in the top left corner, you will reach a room with zombies.
After killing them, enter the next room, which contains the lockers.
Go to the other side to find a locker with a light on it. The
game will prompt for a code. The code (varies by game) is either
"0131", "0513", "4011", or "4312".

Hint: Park fountain solution:
When using the water control unit in Raccoon Park to
drain the fountain, you have to align the gray and black gears.
The gears need to be moved in the following order to correctly
align them and drain the fountain. Move the bottom left black
gear up. Move the top center gray gear down. Move the top right
gray gear to the left. Move the bottom right black gear up. Move
the top center gray gear down. Move the top left black gear to
the right.

Hint: Water sample solution:
When using the water sample machine in the abandoned
Waste Processing Plant (Dead Factory), you have align the three
lines of the water sample correctly to process the sample. There
are four possible solutions (varies by game): A: 4 Right, B: 2
Right, C: 2 Left. A: 1 Right, B: 1 Right, C: 2 Left. A: 1 Left,
B: 2 Left, C: 2 Right. A: 1 Right, B: 3 Right, C: 4 Left. This
will unlock half of the lock to the door next to the elevator.

Hint: Resident Evil 2
references:
When going to the trolley, look ahead as you climb
the boxes. You can see the truck that crashed in Resident Evil
2 in the opening sequence.

In the room where you fight Nemesis for the last time (the missile
room), go to the wall behind the first battery. Tyrant from Resident
Evil 2 is caved into the wall. Jill will describe it as "One
of Umbrella's deadly bioweapons".
At the end of the game, look closely when the rail gun is getting
ready to fire. You can see Mr. X from Resident Evil 2 under
it.
Throughout the game, look at your surroundings. You can see multiple
things from Resident Evil 2. In the room where you fight
Nemesis the final time you can see Hunk, Mr. X, and the Tyrant.
Also, in the street just before the trolley you can see the oil
truck that crashed into the police car from Resident Evil 2.

Hint: Stranded zombie:
After you put out the fire with the hose (where the
first Cerebus dogs appeared) go to the first alley ahead of you.
Enter the door and move up so the camera angle changes. To your
left will be a row of windows. Look in the first window to see
a zombie cop. You cannot shoot him, he cannot attack you, and
there is no way into the building that he is in.

Hint: Hunk:
Look around in the room with the rail gun to find Hunk
on the ground by the door you would exit through.

Hint: More background information:
When you face Nicholai with the helicopter, it is better
to negotiate with him as you will get more information from the
UBCS plans. It is also wiser to talk with him because it wastes
ammo and health if you fight him.

Hint: Game counter:
Complete the game one time. After you finish the game
and restart, save over the old game, and you will get the "Next
Game" along with 00-00 (meaning the start of a second game).

Glitch: Two Nemesis with rocket launchers:
Get to the alley behind the bar. Walk out into the
alleyway until you see stairs. Nemesis will appear with a rocket
launcher, but before he can shoot a second Nemesis will shoot
at you but will hit the first Nemesis and knock him down.

Glitch: Disaster trip on trolley:
Get everything for the trolley and put them in, with
the following order. Use the power cable, then leave through the
double green door. Then, get the fuse and the mixed oil. Do not
put the oil in. When you go to put the fuse in, you will fight
the worm. When you go to get the oil, you will see that the floor
is a disaster.

Glitch: Misspelling:
When you get to the trolley, go to the front and press
X at the very front. The text ''It is the contro room''
will appear, with the word "control" missing the last
letter.

GameShark codes
Extracted Tofu mercenary mission:
Note: This trick requires a GameShark
or Pro Action Replay
cartridge. Enable the following code in the North American version
of the game:
800D3D3E 000F
800D3D54 000F
Originally, Tofu was in mercenary mode. He was unlocked by completing
mercenary mode with a S ranking with all the characters. However,
he was taken out of the game. After enabling this code and when
you rescue civilians, you will get the items he would have received.
Also, when you complete his mission, the game will say that you
were Tofu.

Play as Tofu:
Note: This trick requires a GameShark
or Pro Action Replay
cartridge. Enable the following code in the North American version
of the game: 800D1F86 000F. For the Japanese version, use
300D162E 000F. You will be able to play as Tofu and be
able to use all weapons (even though they will be invisible).
Tofu floats rather than actually walks, but you can hear footsteps
when he moves.

Glitch: Gun through Carlos' leg:
If you fight Nemesis in the newspaper building instead
of the restaurant, you will meet Carlos. He will just regain consciousness.
Before you meet him, take out some kind of long gun (shotgun,
assault rifle, or rocket launcher). When you meet Carlos, look
at the gun. It will keep bobbing through his leg.
