Everything in this guide was tested on the PC version of this game. However since the PC version is a port of the PS1 version, every trick should work on the PS1 version as well.

These control names will be used throughout the guide:

"JUMP" = G (Default) "RUN" = C (Default) "DYNAMITE" = V (Default) "SHOOT" = B (Default) "SEE SCORE BAR" = F (Default)

Movement

Platform Levels

The fastest movement methods are:

1. Jumping: By far the fastest method
2. Running: Hold "RUN" to run
3. Walking: By far the slowest method

Ladders

It is faster to jump ladders up. To do so go in front of them and jump before you reach the point where you automatically walk the ladder up.
It is also faster to jump ladders down, you can even turn left or right while still in air.

Train 1

You can move to the left and the right in part 1 by pressing "LEFT" or "RIGHT".
You can move to the background or the foreground in part 2 by pressing "UP" or "DOWN".

Wagons

Hold "RUN" for a permanent speed boost.

Checkpoints

When you die you will respawn at the last checkpoint you triggered. If you didn't trigger any you will respawn at the beginning of the level.
In many levels you will have to go back to a place where you have already been. In that case you can often use checkpoints to skip a part of going back. However before you respawn there will be a sequence that takes about 10 seconds.

Debug Mode

Apparently only accessible in the PS1 version. The file config.txt of the PC version does refer to the Debug Mode too, but it is unknown how to activate it.

The Cheat Code for the PS1 version is:

Press L1 + R1, L2 + R2, L1 + L2, R1 + R2 while the "ocean" logo is shown. If done correctly the word "CHEAT" in the top left border.
You can now activate the debug menu everywhere except for during loading screens and video sequences.
To show the menu press L2 + R2. To hide it press Triangle.
Use the D-Pad to navigate and press X to load a level.

The two most interesting entries in the menu are:

LEVEL

From that entry you can select any level or video sequence of the game, including the language select screen and the main menu.

INVINCIBLE

OFF = Default, you are not invincible
ON = Your health doesn't decrease and there are invisible walls preventing you from falling into pits and dying. However sometimes you are too far down in the pit to come back out of it.

Edit config.txt

This is only avaiable in the PC version and somewhat the equivalent to debug mode.

Open the folder "win" in the games installation directory.
Then copy the file "config.txt" to your desktop for example. Now edit the file with any editor. Finally copy it back to the folder and replace the old version.

Here are the effects of changing lines in that file:

StartLevel

< 0 = crash
0 = freeze
1 = Intro Video followed by Main Menu
2 = Abilene
3 = Abilene Boss
4 = Video Sequence between Abilene Boss and Train 1
5 = Train 1
6 = Video Sequence between Train 1 and Train 2
7 = Train 2
8 = Video Sequence between Train 2 and Pueblos
9 = Pueblos
10 = Mine Tunnels
11 = Buttercut
12 = Video Sequence between Buttercut and Indian Desert
13 = Indian Desert
14 = Video Sequence between Indian Desert and Saloon
15 = Saloon
16 = Video Sequence between Saloon and Waterfalls
17 = Waterfalls
18 = Wagons
19 = Video Sequence between Wagons and Lumberjacks
20 = Lumberjacks Trial 1
21 = Lumberjacks Trial 2
22 = Lumberjacks Trial 3
23 = Dalton City
24 = The Barn
25 = Shop
26 = Bonus Level 3 (Card Game)
27 = Bonus Level 1 (Bottle Shooting)
28 = Bonus Level 2 (Arm Wrestling)
29 = Game Over Sequence
30 = Ending Sequence
> 30 = crash

Invincible

0 = Default, you are not invincible
1 = Your health doesn't decrease and there are invisible walls preventing you from falling into pits and dying. However sometimes you are too far down in the pit to come back out of it.

Version differences

• Loading times are slower in the PlayStation version
• Elevators in Level 5 ("Mine Tunnels") move down much slower in the PlayStation version
• The versions have different sets of level passwords
• There are more checkpoints in the PC version
• There is a compass in some levels in the PC version which is missing in the PlayStation version.

Trivial Knowledge

Comic with the same name

There is a comic with the same name like the game, however the story is far away from the game's story. The Daltons escape in both versions and Lucky Luke follows and catches them. Other than that there is not really anything that is similar.
