Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Nomeaz1 on Jul 31st, 2003, 07:08am

Has anyone figured out how to unlock the short movies that are available in the Character Profile? I only have one for #19 Leon. I met someone at another board that had unlocked the movie for Blood Falcon. Problem is I have no idea how I unlocked it.

For those who might not be aware of this, you can check and see if any of your unlocked character movies are available by viewing their profile. Under the "X-button" icon (which takes you to the machine) there should be a "Y-button" icon which will show you that character's movie. I do not know if every character has a movie or not. Anyone have any ideas how to open these up?

... that's awesome... So since not everyone has a story mode, this sort of makes up for it... that's awesome

Weirdly enough, I have only one too - Leon. To think I've only use Leon ONCE, for 2 races in the Ruby cup. -___-

Dominic, don't be too excited. Apparently, this video is more like an MTV than anything else. It's titled 'Highway Star'.... hmm... why do I find those words so familiar??

MTV? oh, wait, now I remember hearing about this... damn, oh well... Sure hope someone finds something else soon

I know how to unlock the character movies. Everytime you beat the game with a certain character on master difficulty.

So that means "kirby sim" beat it on master with leon.

I currently have the movies of:
Black Shadow
James McCloud
Beastman
Jody Summers
Phoenix
Octoman

Those are all the people I beat it on master with.

They're not just music videos are they? I'm hoping for some kind of story in them
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Falcon on Aug 2nd, 2003, 11:26am

There just movies of the character, not music videos.

Post by Falcon on Aug 2nd, 2003, 11:29am

Here are some of them: Spoilers(Highlight below to read)

Such as black shadow's movie is kinda like bloopers of the seen with him and Deathborn.

Octoman's movie is a scene of him is a "muscle man" contest

Jody's movie is you see her dancing

James McCloud's movie is kinda the same. He's dancing

Beastman has some sort of short cartoon

And I forget pheonix's movie

Ouch indeed. But hey this screams out high replay value (or blisters from too many gaming hours )

I don't think master is that hard. I already beat the first 3 cups on master... now I'm working on the forth(diamond cup). But the last cup is killer. I suggest using phoenix to beat them(If you've unlocked him), but if you haven't unlocked him I'd suggest using beastman.

This can't be the correct method. I have not even unlocked Master class, plus I have never actually used Leon in a race, yet I have his movie unlocked. Winning a Cup on Master class may be one method of obtaining the movies, but there must be another as well.

Master isn't impossible... but causes us much work

^Do you have to make life so difficult?

Cool the more news we get the more and more GX resembles Melee.

Two ways to unlock most hidden stuff.

Btw I've searched all over the F-Zero community and it seems like no one knows anything about it. Except you two(or is it 3?).

Expert and Master level (of GP)
Is very cool
But in the present day, my thumbs are killing me



Anyone finished the Very Hard? (of Story Mode)
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Kitch on Aug 3rd, 2003, 4:38pm

I've managed to do mission 1,2,3,5 and 9 on very hard mode, so far..... guess what, it was VERY HARD.

First one was the hardest thing I have ever had to do in a game, EVER.
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Kirby on Aug 3rd, 2003, 7:41pm

I second that.

AV n their ridiculous tendency to make things 'REALLY' hard..aka monkey ball master mode...truly fantastic.

It's a totally satisfying way to unlock the AX machines.
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Dominic on Aug 3rd, 2003, 11:01pm

just the way it's suppose to be
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Metroid Killer on Aug 4th, 2003, 07:59am

I have a theori about these movies.

I can't say it enough; F-Zero would be an identical copy of SSB:Melee if it wasn't because they are two different genres.

My point is that in F-Zero GX there are two ways to unlock the AX parts... in Melee you can also unlock secret stuff in more than one way.

I think that those small movies can be unlocked by:
- Clear a GP on Master difficulty and a small movie will be available in the pilot's profile.
- Some other way that we don't know of yet.

Post by Falcon on Aug 4th, 2003, 08:05am

Guys it's simple:

1) To unlock character movies beat it on master.
2) To unlock AX cup beat the four other cups on master.
3) To unlock AX characters beat story missions on very hard
4) To unlock AX parts beat story missions on hard.
5) To unlock Dark Schneider, you must defeat every chapter in Story Mode.
6) To unlock Mute City: Sonic Oval - Place first in the AX Cup in GRAND PRIX mode (any difficulty) to unlock the final AX course, MUTE CITY: SONIC OVAL. This course is playable in every mode except for GRAND PRIX.


So far I've beat the first three cups on master...(Trying to beat diamond now). I've beaten most of story on very hard. I only have to be the last 4 missions.

Then explain how a guy, who has never raced with Leon and hasn't played any master cups yet, got a movie in Leon's pilot profile?

Perhaps Leon's movie is unlocked initially? Nomeaz1 and I both had it, even though we hardly even used Leon.

I'm pretty sure your right Kirby... But I know for a fact that when you beat it on master with a certain guy you get their character movies.

I don't think so
I don't have any characters movies

Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by Falcon on Aug 5th, 2003, 09:25am

I just checked it out, I don't have Leon's movie either... But anyway as I have said "half a million times" beat any cup on master to unlock stuff. Don't be lazy keep trying to beat master if you think you can't.
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by crAsh on Aug 6th, 2003, 01:36am

The deal is not to beat the game on master but to know what's the other way to get the character movies.
We now all know that beating the game on Master level grants a video, but some guys don't have Master level unlocked and yet, they DO have character movies...
Re: Character movies in the Character Profile.
Post by al64inthedark on Aug 9th, 2003, 12:19pm

and what about beatting a Staff ghost with characters to unlock movies ?
