Zuma Deluxe Cheat Codes: ------------ Submitted by: conner54 Cheat mode: ----------- Type: cheat (slow down ball movement) Look in the "Zuma Deluxe!levels" folder for a file called "levels.xml" and open it using Notepad (make a backup copy of it first). Go aprox halfway down until you see the following line: [Settings id="lvl11" speed="0.5" start="35" score="1000" repeat= (etc) lvl11 means level 1-1. So, if you want to slow down the speed of the balls for this level, all you have to do is change the speed setting from 0.5 to 0.2 and then exit and save. If you're stuck on a higher level, say 12-7, and then just go a few lines lower to where it says lvl127 and change its speed setting to 0.2 and save. Note: don't confuse the lvl11 line above with the level11 line on the same page. Hint: ----- Submitteed by: simone All the cheats there are, more levels, by the 12-5, than you have no more lives, you can begin again but all the points are gone. Hint: ----- Submitted by: LesHauSsebons When you succeed in one level, exit the game, copy the directory /userdata/ to somewhere else, then play again. If you loose all your lifes during the next level, or if your performance doesn't please you, quit the game, copy back your userdata and restart where you first backuped it! Like this, you can never loose a single life, and have the higher score.
