* Make Your Favorite Player a Superman:
There is a hidden СfeatureТ in Tony 3: С96 that will give any player more
punch than Babe Ruth, more speed than Rickey Henderson in his prime, and a
better glove than Willie Mays! To invoke the Сmega-manТ feature, hold down
the M, E, G, and A keys simultaneously when the player you want is batting
in the СPlayТ or СManage OnlyТ mode of the action/arcade part of the game.
If properly invoked, this will cause the player whoТs currently batting to
take on superhuman characteristics, and retain these characteristics for
the remainder of the game. This СfeatureТ is most evident when applied to
a catcher or other infielder, as he will proceed to field every batted
ball when his team is in the field. HeТll also hit just about any pitch
out of the park!
* Get Yourself in the Game:
By changing an existing playerТs name, you may be able to get one or both
of the gameТs announcers to say your name (or your fatherТs, sonТs, etc.)
when СyouТ step to the plate! If your first and last names are fairly
common, they may be in the announcerТs database, even if no one player had
the same name as you. For instance, if your name is Jackie Williams, the
gameТs announcers will be able to state your name because the announcer
database includes both СJackieТ (Robinson) and (Ted) СWilliams.Т To try
this, choose СEdit Player StatsТ from the Utilities menu, then choose any
player -- ideally, a good/great player from your favorite team. Simply
click in the boxes containing the playerТs first and last names, and
change them to whatever you want. When you play a game involving the
custom playerТs team, make sure that new player is in the starting lineup,
and see if the gameТs announcer will call him by name when he steps to the
plate! IMPORTANT: This trick will have a better chance of working if you
choose Mel Allen as the gameТs announcer; Mel simply has a larger database
of names at his disposal than Hank Greenwald or Lon Simmons...
*Make it a "Co-ed" Game:
This is a little-known function of the game, discovered only by those
die-hard fans who play decades of seasons into the future in the GM
Challenge portion of the game. If you play enough seasons into the 21st
Century, women will start appearing in the game! By the year 2040 or so,
you should have a Rookie of the Year winner named Barbara or Nancy! LetТs
face it, Tony 3: С96 is the only politically correct baseball sim on the
market!
