 A lot of things that doesn't fall into any specific topic, mostly the "hidden features" like advanced options and one-player nova, Things that is not listed in any manual. 

----
====Commandline Parameters====

 OMF supports a number of parameters on startup to enter some game modes directly or to activate certain features, the following table is non-exhaustive as more may be discovered in the future.  You can invoke them through OMF.EXE or if you prefer to skip the launcher, FILE0001.EXE instead.

|ADVANCED|Enables the advanced options menu without the use of a code.  See Advanced Options in the next section.|
|ONE_PLAYER|Skip the game menu and go to single player mode immediately.|

====Advanced Options====

 Start at main screen, or gameplay screen. Hold down the 2097 buttons at the same time, release and go to Gameplay screen, there should be a new "Advanced Options" that contains a lot of options that affect gameplay, especially Rehit Mode is of interest. 

 Note: you can also get this menu by starting the game with: 

> FILE0001.EXE ADVANCED

 From DOS (or command prompt) 

----
====Sound Test====

 Start at main screen, or gameplay screen. Hold down the ALT key and S+F at the same time, release the keys and go to "Configuration" screen, there you should now have an option called: "Sound Test 0" You can press left and right keys to cycle between the 300 (0-299) sounds in the game, Just hit Enter or Punch button to listen to the selected number. 

> Personally Favourite: sound number 64 

----
====Hidden Difficulty 1====

 Start at gameplay screen, select the "CPU:" option, and press the Right Arrow Button until it says "CPU: Champion" which is the highest difficulty rating. 

 Now press the: Right Arrow Button, and press it down ca 10-15 times, until it display: "CPU: Deadly" 

 This is quite a bit harder than Champion. 

----
====Hidden Difficulty 2====

 Start at gameplay screen, select the "CPU:" option, it should now say: "CPU: Deadly" as it did in the previous post. 

 Press and hold down the buttons: O+M+F release the buttons and press the Right Arrow Button again, now it should say: "CPU: Ultimate" 

 Good luck. 

----
====More Scrap Metal====

 This code works from in game, so start a fight, for example a 2 player game, and any time during the fight, you can type in: B+I+G+1 (or B+I+G+2, or B+I+G+9) to have the amount of scrap metal that comes loose from each hit increase, or decrease. The BIG0 disables scarp metal completely, and BIG9 is the most scrap, 

 BIG1 is normal. bigger numbers can be very annoying in length. 

 To end this, change to BIG1 or exit the game, and start it again. 

----
====Scrap Rain====

 This code works from in game, so start a fight, for example a 2 player game, and any time during the fight, you can type in: R+E+I+N 

 Now all the scrap metal that is blown off a robot, will start to rain down from the top of the screen, this lasts for a few seconds per hit, and will stop raining if nobody hit each other. 

 To end this exit the game, and start it again. 

> Note: This is a reference to Mark Rein, from Epic MegaGames, that also helped with writing manuals for omf2097.

----
====Change colours in one/two player game====

 While on robot selection screen player one can press the 1,2,3 buttons to change colours. 

 Player two can press the 4,5,6 buttons in similar way to change he's colours. 

 The F9 button will reset the colours. 

----
====Victory screen replay (Tournament play)====

 After watching the tournament victory screen, press E to replay it, this works as long as you are ranked number 1 in the tournament. 

----
====Changing abilities in one/two player====

 This allows you to change how much Power, Agility and Endurance the pilot will have. You only change the already existing abilities, you do not add more. 

 Start on any character, and move the selector over every pilot (in no particular order). Then move to any pilot you want, and press and hold down the KICK button. Use arrow keys to change the abilities, right and left change the amount, and up and down change witch ability to change. 

----
====Changing Advanced Options in Multiplayer====

Press:

> ALT + G

This opens up a special menu for multiplayer that lets you adjust most advanced options, and also enable enhancements for multiplayer matches.

----

====Playing Nova in one/two player====

 To play Nova in a one or two player game start on any bot, and move the selector over every bot (in no particular order). Then go to Katana, and press DOWN 11 times (or press 20 to be certain), go to the flail and press Punch or Kick. 

 You should now see the Nova instead of Flail in the loading hangar, if not press Escape and try again. 

----
====Fight Vs Kreissack first====

 You need to have selected Nova to do this. Use the tips for getting Nova in single player from above, then when you stand in the loading hangar with the nova, hit ESCape, you will return to robot selection screen. Now hit Punch or Kick again to go back to hangar and Kreissack will be your first opponent. 

 Note that you still have to fight the other 9 after you defeat Kreissack. 

----
====Recording: OMF.EXE REC (Filename/SAVE_REC)====

 This option allows you to "record" a fight, so you can replay the fight another time. very useful to show off your skills. 

 Simply start the game from the DOS prompt (or CMD) with the syntax: OMF REC (or FILE0001 REC) This will record the last fight you fight to the file: LAST.REC, so if you play OnePlayer game and fight against Crystal first, then against steffan, the fight against steffan will be recorded. 

 You can specify a filename like: OMF REC RAPTOR.REC to have the file named RAPTOR.REC automatically. Also by using the SAVE_REC command, you have record all fights you play. eks: OMF REC SAVE_REC will save every fight you play into files like OMF00001.REC, OMF00002.REC and so on. 

 To replay the .REC files type: OMF PLAY this will automatically replay the LAST.REC. Or you can specify a filename. example: OMF PLAY RAPTOR.REC which will of course replay the RAPTOR.REC fight. 

 Just press F10 to escape from replay mode, or wait for the fight to end, you can also use ESC button to select QUIT as well as most normal options inside game like speed and sound options.
