Shortcut Cheats
Two cheats for "Midtown Madness" require adding a parameter to the desktop shortcut target. Right click on the shortcut for the game and select "Properties" from the menu. The parameters are added at the very end of the text in the "Target" line. Do not delete or modify the text already present. Every car in the game is automatically unlocked by adding "-allcars" to the target text. Every race in the game is automatically unlocked by adding "-allrace." Both of these cheats can be used by adding "-allcars -allrace" to the target line.
Cheat Codes
Cheat codes for "Midtown Madness" can only be entered during the middle of a single-player race. Press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+F7 to bring up the prompt to enter cheats. The code will go into effect after entering the code and pressing the Enter key. Entering "/nodamage" will disable the damage caused by collisions. This cheat is turned off by entering "/damage." The gravity in the game can be decreased in half by entering "/grav." This will allow cars to travel higher and further when knocked into the air. The radar for cops can be toggled on or off by entering "/fuzz." The friction effect on nonrace cars can be turned off by typing "/slide." This will cause these cars to slide around uncontrollably after collisions. Typing "/puck" will turn off the friction for the player's car.
Enter Name Passwords
"Midtown Madness" allows a player to enter cheat passwords at the start of the new game. These passwords are entered as the player name. Entering "Showme Cops" as the name will cause cop cars to appear on the game radar. This will make them much easier to avoid during a race. AlI cars can be made faster by entering "Warp Eleven" as the player name. The player can have a black limo as his or her car by entering "valimoblack" and choosing the Mustang GT for their car. The password "valimoangel" has the same effect, except the limo will be white. The player can get a yellow cab by entering "vataxi" and selecting the Cadillac for his or her car. The green cab is acquired in the same fashion, except "vataxicheck" is entering instead.
