Ancient, Obscure BK Content

[qwertykins76]

Hello all. I am having a lot of trouble finding some very ancient Banjo videos from the early days of YouTube, as well as Game Shark codes associated with these videos. I was wondering if anyone could help.

I can find nothing about this anywhere online, but I remember VERY firmly that there are Game Shark codes that let you enter one map, but have a completely different map's secondary characteristics mapped onto it. I KNOW this is real, cuz I did it once myself on N64 hardware. I loaded the interior of Jinxy onto Spiral Mountain. This made it so I was in Spiral Mountain, but it played Jinxy's interior music and secondary assets like the magic carpets, Banjo wall heads and wall flames were all floating in the middle of Spiral Mountain.

I can't find these codes ANYWHERE. I guess that's fine, cuz mostly I just wanna find the ancient YouTube videos that showed them off. I can't find ANY of those videos that showcased this, they must now be almost 20 years old. If anyone knows where to find these that'd be swell, I distinctly remember:

• mmm graphed onto mumbo's mountain, tee-hee included
• totally water-flooded versions of both mumbo's mountain and spiral mountain
• ttc graphed onto spiral mountain, snacker cameo included
• cc graphed onto treasure trove cove, which featured clanker floating in the sky. I might be recalling a fever dream, but I swear there was also a similar one where either Bottles or Tooty was included and they were gigantic.
• the rusty bucket having apparently crash landed smack-dab in the middle of spiral mountain (but tbh I think this one was a hack, I assume the ship is part of that level's 3d model and wouldn't be featured if you just used the game shark code)

I would also enjoy it very much for this thread to serve as a hub for any and all ancient and nowadays obscure Banjo-Kazooie content in general. Beta things, fan content, or anything the sands of time have all but forgotten about. Feel free to share!

Let's peak behind the curtains of a past era, and see what ghosts we can't mither out into the daylight.

The RWP YouTube has a few videos of those exact things, though no codes are listed.

I have a few of the old fan games from YBK/BT Hive. I haven't played them since they were made, no idea if they still work. I believe these are original zip files.

The RWP? You mean that old, barely functional internet forum? Didn't that place shut down years ago? I can't believe it's still up!

[spoiler]when I was 11 or 12 years old I saw this RWP video, and I was really REALLY scared of Snacker the shark so I was too afraid to swim in click clock wood for a few years cuz i thought it was real[/spoiler]

Banjo-Fair, bless. I think I have the zip somewhere in my backups but I'm always glad to get a new download. I used to play it at my friend's house back when it was new.

I definitely had/have those old codes on PJ64, but that was on a computer that's stopped working ages ago. I had actually just recovered a bunch of files from the hard drive a year or two ago, I never thought to grab that though. I know I still have multiple save-states that would load in with the codes already active... Maybe someday I'll find them . I messed around a lot with the character modifier trying to find lost bits mostly, .
