Cheats with windows XP?

[rickmeister]

awesome site! thanks for resurrecting rick.
quick questions: i am running rick on windows xp under the command window and it won't allow me to use the debug cheat, any ideas? i looked up other cheats on google, and it seems to me that everyone except me was able to get the contiune cheat (continue in the first screen of the last level you played in) by typing in "POOKY" at the high score screen, does anyone know why?

thanks a lot!

First of all, I'm not running XP as I prefer to avoid it like a bad case of bubonic plague.

I've provided the debug cheat "as is" - I've tried it, couldn't get it to work, but it's up there in case anyone *can* get it going.

I don't remember "POOKY" ever working on any version I've tried, either.

Your best bet is to pick up the r1hacks.zip file off the PC page, get a hex editor, and apply the hex codes to the .exe files in the package.

I don't think the POOKY cheat is for the PC version, but for another system. I never got it to work either.
