Note: This procedure involves editing a game file; create a backup copy of the
file before proceeding. Use a text editor to edit the "options.ini" file in the
game folder. Add the following line to the file if it does not exist, or edit
the existing line to match:

SET DX_CONFIG_BULLET 100

This sets the amount of ammunition you get when you pick it up.
Usually, the game can set it to a maximum of x3.

Completion bonuses:
-------------------
Successfully complete the game. Start another game and enter the extra options
menu to access new features.
- A "Bullet Adjust" option can be set, allowing the normal amount of ammunition
found at a location to be doubled or tripled.
- A "Noise Effect" option can be toggled.
- Another new option can be toggled, allowing scenes to be viewed without distortion.

Additional riddle difficulty:
-----------------------------
Successfully complete the game under the easy, normal, and hard riddle difficulty
settings. Select the hard riddle difficulty again and begin a new game with a new
combination of riddles.

Innocent Man riddle:
--------------------
One of the rooms you will enter in the Labyrinth will include six men that have been
hung by the ceiling. Your job is to free the innocent man in the group. In easy riddle
mode, the innocent man will always be, "The Kidnapper". In normal riddle mode, the
innocent man will always be, "The Arsonist". In hard riddle mode, the innocent man will
always be ,"The Counterfeiter". Once you find out who the innocent man is, pull the
corresponding empty noose in the second room to release the body. In his place, the Key
Of The Persecuted will be on the floor below.

Killing enemies:
----------------
When you encounter an enemy, try and get fairly close to it. When it attacks, quickly
side step out of the way. Then, face the enemy and attack it with the board with a nail
in it. Most of the early enemies you encounter have a slow reaction time after they
attack and can easily be taken down with the board and nail. :Note: This is only
recommended for use with those types of enemies and should not be used when facing
later enemies.
To easily kill a normal monster, shoot it until it falls down, then run up and press
Action. James will kick or step on the monster and it will die.

The "Leave" ending:
-------------------
In this ending, James is kneeling down beside Mary's deathbed, and is explaining why
he killed her. Then, the ending shows James and Laura leaving Silent Hill through the
cemetery while Mary's voice is heard, reading her letter to James.

The "Maria" ending:
-------------------
In this ending, James walks to Rosewater Park, and finds Maria staring out into the
water. They greet each other, and James tells Maria that he likes her, and wants to
be with her.

UFO ending:
-----------
Successfully complete the game once with the Leave ending (where James and Laura
leave the town), then complete it again with the Rebirth ending (where James is
going to revive Mary). Start the game again and a Blue Gem should appear in the
bathroom where you start. Use the Blue Gem at the evil hospital garden, the dock
(before you get on the boat), and room 312 before the intermission sequence.
After using it in room 312, the UFO ending will begin

Defeating Eddie:
----------------
To defeat Eddie easily, you must have the Pyramid Head's sword which can be found in
the labyrinth. Hide behind the hanging meat and wait for Eddie to get near. At the
correct moment, hit the meat with the sword. Eddie will fall back. While he struggles
to get up, unequip the sword and move near him. Equip the sword, then as he cocks
the gun, strike him. Do this repeatedly. Note: If this is under the Easy difficulty
setting, it will take about two hits. More hits are needed for higher difficulties.
