Item pick-up fix

Fixes crashes caused by picking up various items throughout the game by replacing their cutscene models with that of a red crystal.

Prevent gas chamber puzzle from triggering twice

After rescuing Kyte in Cape Claw and exiting the courtyard, you will typically trigger the gas chamber cutscene and be forced to solve the puzzle a second time. Using this code will avoid this issue and allow you to pass through Cape Claw as intended. Additionally, you can mitigate crashes in this room by pulling the final block into place instead of pushing it.

Teach Tricky the "Distract" command

Tricky fails to learn Distract when he's supposed to, so this code will safely teach him the command. Alternatively, there is a patch that fixes this issue available on the Mods page.

Allow Galdon boss fight to be initiated

The Galdon boss fight in DarkIce Mines cannot properly be initiated by Tricky's Flame command due to a bug. This command will allow you to use Tricky's Flame command to start the Galdon boss fight as intended. In order for the second phase of the fight to work properly, you will need to deactivate this code as soon as the fight begins.

Alternatively, if you'd prefer to not have to deactivate a code, or you are an EverDrive user, you may use this version of the code, which is only active while holding D-pad Up:

Learn the "Portal" spell

Portal is unable to be obtained as intended due a bug that causes a puzzle in Golden Plains to be unsolvable. One workaround for this issue is to use a GameShark code to learn the spell. Please note that this code assumes that you have played the game in sequence up until this point, as it will technically teach you not just Portal, but Projectile, Illusion, and Shield as well.

Display scarab counter

Not strictly necessary, but nice to have.
