Donkey Kong 64 Wiki

The cheat codes on this page are compatible with Donkey Kong 64 (U) on Project64. They may help you test glitch theories.

Quick Setup[]

You don't need to copy and paste the codes into Project64. Here is how to set up all codes at once:

Find the file "Project64.cht" and open it with Notepad. If you use Project64 2.x, it is located in the "Config" folder in the application directory. On 1.6 and 1.7, it is stored directly in the application directory, although 1.6 may have another Project64.cht in a different directory like "%userprofile%\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Project64 1.6". Now search the file for "donkey kong 64" and the first result should be in the DK64 (US) paragraph. (The second one is for the PAL version.) Replace that paragraph with the content of this text file. Open up Project64, start the ROM and you'll find all of the cheat codes in the text file in the emulator's cheats menu.

Codes that have an option in brackets, such as "Character (=> $05 Krusha)" or "Warp (=> $00 Test Map)", can be double-clicked. You can then select an option to change the effect of the code.

It is recommended to use a 101% file. Download one here and put it into Project64's "Save" folder.

Warp[]

Activate this code and select a map that you will be warped to when the screen fades

Levitate[]

This code allows you to ascend quickly into the air as long as only the L button is held. It has to be activated before you start the game.

The moon jump is so fast that you can go straight through ceilings if they are low enough. You can even increase the speed by moon jumping out of DK's kick, or by pausing and unpausing the game.

Pass through Objects[]

You can walk through various doors and barriers once this is activated. A drawback of this code is that the portal in the Troff 'n' Scoff room cannot be used, and the only way to deactivate the code is by resetting the game.

Mode[]

There is an address that determines the game mode. Changing it has various effects that can either occur instantly or after a screen fade. Results range from loading zones and screen fades being disabled to softlocks on menu screens and controls not being fully functional. Some effects can only be seen if you change the value during screen fades because as mentioned before, they tend to be disabled. Go to this page for more information on game modes.

The easiest way to tell what the code does is to change the value to 03. The game will instantly turn into a DK TV demo that lasts until you change it to another value. To disable loading zones, go into Adventure mode normally and change the value to 05 (other numbers may work as well).

It is advised to create a save state before using this code.
