Mixing Herb Power-ups
The herb power-ups can be mixed using the "combine" command for varying, but very beneficial results. This will also save storage space for holding puzzle items. Here is a listing of some herbal combinations and the outcomes: 1 green herb + 1 green herb = 60% health recovery 1 green herb + 1 blue herb = 20% health recovery and poison antidote 1 green herb + 1 red herb = Full health recovery 3 green herbs combined = Full health recovery 1 green herb + 1 red herb + 1 blue herb (in that order) = Cure-all (full health recovery and poison antidote)

Final Stage Bonus Room
The final stage has a bonus room that can be entered through a long but easy process. In the first scenario, have Leon or Claire use the red lab key card to enter the room with the giant flying moth. Kill the moth. Find the keyboard attached to the wall, kill the larvae on it and type your name in on the keyboard as "NEMESIS". Register your fingerprint. Go to the first floor of the lab and find the thumbprint reader panel. Use your fingerprint, and the panel should then ask for a second "fingerprint verification." Complete the game, and save the second scenario to any file. In the second scenario from the game you have just played, go to the final stage. Find the room on the first floor of the lab where wriggling plant vines are blocking the vent. The red lab key card should be there. Take it and go to the moth room with the keyboard. Enter your name as "GUEST" and register your thumbprint. Finally, go to the first floor and find the thumbprint reader. It should ask for the "secondary fingerprint verification." Do it, and the bonus room to the right of the panel should be unlocked. Look for a special weapon inside.

Secret Police Station Gate
Make your way to the main police station door...But don't go in it!!! Go directly across from it until you hit a wall and press the A button and the camera view will change and show a gate with 3 zombies on the other side. You can kill the zombies but the gate won't open. You can keep on killing the same zombies by going into the police station then outside and go to the same gate.

Breaking Camera
This trick is simple. All you have to do is have a shotgun and face the screen where you are facing the character face to face and shoot. If it don't work you need to be farther back. You will see something like bullet holes through the camera. It only works with a shot gun of any kind.

Change Clothes And Get A Gun
Start with Leon or Claire on normal. When you start pick up NOTHING or you will have wasted your time. After you reach the police station go inside and get a good gun and all of the ammo you can find. Go outside where you first come in the police station gates. There is a tunnel if you go strait. Go into it and there will be a zombie that is very hard to kill. Search him after you blast him away. You should find something called a special key. Go to the room where you can make pictures and use it on the lockers that askes for a special key. For Leon you get two outfits. One looks like a S.T.A.R.S. uniform. The other lets you shoot faster with the pistol. For Claire there is only one outfit, but there is a gun that shoots quickly from the waist.

Beat William Birkin Scenario 1
At the last fight it took me a while to figure it out but to beat William you have to use the unlimited ammo cheat. You have to unload the machine gun on him until he is smaller, then use the flamethrower to finish him.
