Debug Modes
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.
Re-enable printf Messages 20100590 08040AC0
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 203555C0 00000001
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.

Unused Graphics
Early Background Images
Harry's Memo
An unused image of the memo titled "Dad's memo" found on the counter of an ice cream stand in Lakeside Amusement Park. The image is located in XBG0/data/pic/00/000_mem.tex. The surface of the table has a different appearance, and the writing on the notepad appears to be an early translation of the memo.
Early | Final |
---|---|
Early memo text (first page):
Daria said that that girl is the devil. Kidnapped for the sacrifice. I don't bilieve in my feeling [sic]. Is it because of the appearance? That girl resemble with Sherril based on the picture in the basement of the hospital.
Final memo text (first page):
Dahlia's the one who said it— said that girl was a demon. That she took my daughter for a sacrifice. But it's not totally believable. I mean, appearances can be deceiving.
Heather's Photo
Two early versions of Heather's photo (memo named "Photo on chair") can be found at XBG0/data/pic/00/000_phf.tex and XBG0/data/pic/00/000_phr.tex. Both versions are missing color and surface retouches.
Early (phf) | Early (phr) | Final |

Hilltop Center Elevator Shaft
Early images of the elevator shaft from the 3rd floor of the Hilltop Center. Both images are contained in XBG0/data/pic/br/br21.tex. Both renders are missing the jack required to open the jammed elevator doors.

Brookhaven Briefcase
An unused image of the combination lock numbers on the briefcase found in room M4 of Brookhaven Hospital. Found in XBG0/data/pic/hp/hpc3.tex.
Early | Final |

Shakespeare Anthology Puzzle
Early images of the Shakespeare anthology books, a puzzle encountered in the My Bestsellers bookstore in the Central Square Shopping Center, found at XBG0/data/pic/mr/mrf1.tex.
Early | Final |
---|---|
An early render of the bookshelf can also be found at XBG0/data/pic/_work/mr1f.tex. In the unused image, the book with the blue spine on the right is titled Macbeth. The book was later renamed to The 59th Street Bridge Song, a reference to the 1966 song by Simon & Garfunkel. This may have been done in part to avoid confusion with hints in the puzzle.
Early | Final |
---|---|
Early Inventory Items
An early texture of the player's inventory items can be found at XBG0/data/pic/01/01menuitem.tex. The sheet contains placeholder numbers for item slots that have not yet been given a sprite. Aside from these placeholders, notable items are:
- Slot 21: A pair of blue batteries which may have been used in a puzzle. This item was replaced by the "OPS2" shirt.
- Slot 23: An unused photograph of Harry and Heather. This item also appears in the final version of the texture.
- Slot 54: An early sprite of Dad's Notebook with a white cover.

Trial Version Leftovers
Images left over from the trial version of Silent Hill 3, including a title screen and "Coming Soon" screen.
Team Silent Splash Screen
An unused splash screen with "Team Silent" written in Comic Sans. This image would have been displayed with other splash screens before the opening video and title screen. The image may be a reference to the 1994 album "Dummy" by Portishead, one of the Silent Hill series' key musical influences. This wouldn't be the first Easter egg referencing them, since posters for the band also appear in various locations in the original Silent Hill.
The following code can be used in the USA version of the game to re-enable the splash screen after the Konami logo appears:
Enable Team Silent Splash Screen 203980B4 FF070605 103980B8 00000A08
Miscellaneous Images
am11_phh.tex
An unused photograph of Harry and Heather on the wall of their home in Daisy Villa Apartments. The image is located at XBG0/data/pic/am/am11_phh.tex and is the only image in this directory. There is a similar sprite of an unused photograph in the player's inventory, which suggests that the player could have taken this photograph with them before leaving the apartment.
sh2edcstart.tex
An unused title screen from Silent Hill 2: Director's Cut found at XBG0/data/pic/sh/sh2edcstart.tex.
mallf1omote.tex
A map of the first floor of the Central Square Shopping Center found at XBG0/data/pic/ma/mallf1omote.tex.
Test Images
Various working images found in the XBG0/data/pic/_work directory.
Unused Text
Photograph
An unused inventory description of the photograph of Heather and Harry can be found in XBG0/data/msg/item_eng_msg.mes at offset 0x1025.
Photograph It's of Dad and me at Christmas. Looking at this makes me want to try even harder. I have to...I can't lose. They killed my dad and they have to pay for it.
Unused Models
Early Character Versions
Claudia
An unused model of Claudia found at XBG0/data/chr/item/chcaa.mdl.bak. Claudia's skin, hair, and eyes appear darker in the earlier version of the model. Her robes are also slightly brighter.
Early | Final |
---|---|
Douglas
An unused model of Douglas found at XBG0/data/chr/item/chdaa_lip.mdl. Most of Douglas' clothing appears brighter in the early version of the model with exception to his shoes.
Early | Final |
---|---|
Heather
An unused model of Heather found at XBG0/data/chr/pl/chhaa_wg.mdl. A similar model is located at XBG0/data/chr/item/pl_htr_a.mdl. The early model has a darker and more saturated color scheme. In addition, the flashlight in Heather's upper-left vest pocket has gray casing instead of green. The final model contains minor adjustments to the size of Heather's clothing and the appearance of the wrinkles on her vest.
The black bands above Heather's orange wristbands are the result of a texturing error. The skin of both the arms and legs share the same image texture. In the early model, the legs appear slightly higher in the image, resulting in the texture of the arms being cut off above the wrists by the shadow of the top portion of the legs.

Vincent
An unused model of Vincent found at XBG0/data/chr/item/chvaa_test.mdl. Comparing both versions of the model, the final version contains adjustments to the shape of the arms, the size of both hands, and and the shape and color of the waistcoat.

Missionary
An unused model of the Missionary found at XBG0/data/chr/item/en_apb.mdl.bak. The most notable differences are:
- Bloodstains are missing on the front of the model.
- A different zipper pattern can be found on the back and legs.
- The head has a darker red color similar to the color of the gloves, making the head easier to distinguish.
There are also other color differences throughout the model including the shoulders, weapons, pants and shoes.

---|---|
Valtiel
An unused model of Valtiel found at XBG0/data/chr/item/en_spi.mdl.bak. The most notable differences are:
- The model has white gloves matching those of Pyramid Head from Silent Hill 2. Since Valtiel and Pyramid Head share a base model, it is likely that Valtiel's gloves were recolored later in development.
- Both shoulders are missing the Seal of Metatron.
- The back left side of the head is missing a mouth.
- The shadow covering the right side of the head is gone, leaving the green pattern on the right cheek exposed.

Unused Background Models
bg_cpw.mdl.bak
An unused model of the corpse in the boutique in the Central Square Shopping Center found at XBG0/data/chr/item/bg_cpw.mdl.bak. The model has a higher poly count and higher resolution textures compared to the model used in the game. Aside from this, there are no notable visual differences.
The mesh is an exact match with the high poly model of Angela from Silent Hill 2.
bg_hum.mdl
A model of Angela's head from Silent Hill 2 found at XBG0/data/chr/bg/bg_hum.mdl. During the opening cutscene where Heather wakes up in the Happy Burger, the model is placed at one of the tables near the front of the restaurant. However, the head always appears off-camera and cannot be seen normally.
