There was an old cheat code, that no longer works in recent versions of the game, which was "carol vorderman" -- anyone know what it actually did? All I can find is "Display programmer message" which is somewhat vague?

There was also "John Kettley". I have a note of that and Vorderman, but unfortunately I never noted what they did.

John Kettley is a weatherman thus changed the maps weather between snow, rain and clear.

I'm intrigued to find out what the Carol Vorderman one did - she was the female math genius on a UK TV series called Countdown.

Yup, that's all I can find. I want to know what the programmer message was... It's driving me nuts.

The original source does "audio_QueueTrack( ID_SOUND_NOFAULTS );", with ID_SOUND_NOFAULTS being "Scream4.wav", which was removed in f2118ec8717ea6d1be4d501e1d662f7b2ca0552e.
