Unused Opening

CREDITS.PSS contains an early version of the opening developer credits with unused transitions. The final game has each developer as a separate file without transitions.

One thing to note is the end contains a 'Highway 35' logo containing a different font from what's used in the rest of the series. This was used in the European releases of the GameCube and Windows versions, which were titled 'Hot Wheels: Highway 35 World Race'.

Unused Items

Gallery Videos

Along with pictures of every car, there were plans to have unlockable videos in the Gallery as well, as shown in gallery_info.xml (along with a frustrated developer's notes):

Sniper elite v2

Unused Graphics

Boy_Band.bog

A poorly rendered image of the 5 team leaders. Note that all drivers in the game used 2D drawings instead of 3D renders, so this is likely from an early point in development.

Debugging Material

To do:
Add images.

In track_info.xml, setting 'boost_boxes_visible' in any given track to 'true' highlights all boost pads and ramps on that track with a green box.

Oddities

Power Rocket and Greased Lightnin'

For some reason, 'Power Rocket' and 'Greased Lightnin' cannot be raced against as an AI. This is possibly to help with performance issues. Editing the game files to attempt to load them as AI results in a game crash.
