Air Combat
Hints/Cheats

Here are some codes for Ace Combat I got from the Japanese Hyper Playstation
magazine. Before entering each code, you must do step 1.

STEP 1: 

When starting/continuing a game from the title screen, hold down 
R1 + O while the CD is being accessed. A black screen with the words 
"Now Loading" and flying CDs in the background will appear. While the CDs 
are flying around, you can enter one of the following codes:


CODE 1: Undecorated planes with original paintjob.
U, D, L, R, U, D, L, R, R1

CODE 2: Undecorated wingman.
Hold R1, press START ten times.

CODE 3: ??
L, R, L, R, D, U, D, U, O, O, T, T, T

CODE 4: Unlimited cash (Unconfirmed)
Hold D, C, T, T, T, C, T, C, T, C + T

CODE 5: Hidden game.
U, L, D, R

During loads, you can play this mini game for about 6 seconds.
You control the Ace Combat icon with L or L2 and O or R2, with the
aim of destroying as many of the swarming Stealth Bombers as possible.
I think if you score above 4.6 points/sec you'll get some special
bonus (not sure about this).


Each time a code is successfully entered, a representative icon will 
appear at the bottom left of the flying CD screen.

Have fun!

Tip on playing the extra game: Hold down the O button.  This
will make you spin in small circles.  To move your plane,
release the O button momentarily--while released, you will
fly straight.  Hold the O button down again to resume flying
in circles--a little practice with this method and you'll be
able to move around without crashing on the edge of the
screen.
 
Also, after i got a score of 4.75 pts/sec, wingmen were free.
(you'll know it because when the hidden game is over, the
word "Congratulations" appears under "Complete")  I'm not
sure of the minimum required score, but i know it's between
4.15 and 4.75--possibly 4.6 pts/sec?
 
The extra game on the higher missions has little UFOs instead
of stealth bombers, and a little superman-looking character as
well--if you hit him, he speeds off the screen--not sure
if this gives you more points or not.
