Debug Information (printf)
Within the game is a stubbed printf function which would have logged various background information to a debug unit. This logs information such as files and maps loaded. It would also report errors if any occurred. To re-enable this mode, apply the below code for the USA version of the game.

If you are playing the game on a regular PlayStation 2, you will need to use a TOOL, RDB, or a debug version of OPL to view the logs. If you are playing on an emulator, you can see this information by enabling the option "Show Console". Below is an example of what type of information gets logged.

Controller 2 Debug Modes
Present on controller 2 are a couple of normally inaccessible debug options. The game normally disables controller 2 inputs. To re-enable controller 2 and the debug mode, apply the below code for the USA version of the game.
Re-enable Controller 2 Inputs

With the code on, pressing X button on controller 2 will freeze all models in the map, including Heather. Press X again to un-freeze, or Circle to advance a frame. Pressing Select prints the following information to a debug unit, however this doesn't work properly anymore.
Current VSlot ID = %2d %sn
