To do many of the following glitches, you will need to activate the debug mode. To do this, enter your name as _Wampa__Stompa and start the game. Now, push start to pause the game once the level has fully begun. This sounds freaky but it does work, although it can get frusterating. Hold all the C buttons, the L and R buttons, the Z button, and the left button on the control pad. It helps if you have someone help you hold the buttons. Now, carefully tilt the control stick halfway to the left until you hear a sound and then tilt it to the right until you hear a sound. Keep on tilting it back and forth, not pushing the stick all the way, until some letters appear with cheats you can use. It takes about 5 tilts. To go through the cheats, use the control pad. To change a number or setting, push up on the control stick. To select a feature, push A. The glitches that need this will make a reference to the debug menu.


Boba and his Slave 1 invisible in the hangar

Does it work? --> Unconfirmed. We'll check soon.

Go to where you had to fight Boba Fett. If you put wall ghost on, you can actually go into the hangar where the Slave one is located! The slave one and Boba are invisible but they are still there to blast at you. Use the "wall ghost" cheat and turn it off when you're in the cube hangar to see them invisible

Ghost train

Does it work? --> Unconfirmed. We'll check soon.

Remember the Hover Train carriage that goes plunging into the muck in the Train level? You'll be safely on a different ride seeing nothing but the top part only of the train that goes into the muck! As the train goes down, go on the other train next to it and jump onto the roof. You will go plunging into the muck. Make sure you stay alive by standing on the safe side of the carriage (back right hand side). Observe the other train track. The train you are on will move back and then go back into it's original state in the muck. If you keep looking at the safe train track you were supposed to go on, you'll notice another hover train pass by. You only have one chance to jump on it! Using the debug mode, modify the gravity to about 0.667 and the jump figure to higher than usual. You will keep riding on this train. You'll PASS all the carriages you were supposed to already walk on. However, the other trains will go right through you like a GHOST train, along with any enemies that might appear scary to you. Instead of heading for IG-88 you'll be going through the second train track and meet with the second hover train that you would usually LAST jump off from.

Try and jump onto that one and you should experience the ghost train trip again but in reverse. If you stay on the train still, you'll fall off the end of the level and die from falling! One the bright side... at least you'll know what's at the very start of the train level!

Imperial transporter ship glitch
Submitted by: phoenix_advance
Exciting-ness scale: 6 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Go to the level where you fight Boba Fett. Before you reach the area where you have to fight the mini boss "AT-ST", you go on some kind of hover carrier where a huge white space ship flies off into the sky. If you do not use the transport to get to the other side, the ship will not fly.

Jump down to the brown rocky area and go to the exit hole. Adjust your gravity and jump settings with the debug menu. Also use the "get all items" option so you can have the jetpack if you don't already. Jump into the air as far as you can before you start using your jetpack to fly to the first platform as shown in the picture. Don't go to the usual second platform. With timing and wise use of the jetpack, you'll make it. Keep in mind that if you don't use the jetpack and if you jump too high, you will probably end up falling and dying on the land. Now, go through the door and into the big room.

You'll see the chicken walker (AT-ST) dancing from side to side. If you go down to the area where you would have come through with the transport, you'll see that the second platform door is closed! Also you will see that the white ship still there! You can even walk through the ship like as if it were a ghost and see what is inside. The AT-ST will still shoot at you and can even shoot you when you're in the ship.

Chop off the chicken walker's head
Discovered by: Wilma of CGS
Exciting-ness scale: 3 out of 10
Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Turn on "Villains are sleepy" in the debug menu. Now, go see the chicken walker dude. He'll be "asleep". Now, get your jetpack with the "get all items" cheat and fly up so you're facing his head. Shoot his head a couple of times and his head will magically disappear. However, if you turn "villains are sleepy" off, he will wake up with his head back.

Badguys losing solidity

Does it work? --> Confirmed. It works.

Turn on "Villains are sleepy" in the debug menu. Now, go up to a living badguy. He will be solid but he'll be standing, frozen. Shoot him and he will shout in pain. Eventually, he will die and he'll still be standing. You can now go through him.
