![Crash Team Racing (Aug 5, 1999 prototype) - Citadel City Relics [PART 8]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/gI6eZgVIxrc/hqdefault.jpg "Crash Team Racing (Aug 5, 1999 prototype) - Citadel City Relics [PART 8]
The August 5th, 1999 build is a preview version of CTR built a month and a half before the final NTSC build date of September 24th, 1999. This beta version was widely given out among North-american video game magazines to be used in preview articles before the game is released.
A full documentation of the differences can found at: https://tcrf.net/Proto:Crash_Team_Racing/August_5th,_1999_build
Download the game, patched and ready to go: https://hiddenpalace.org/Crash_Team_Racing_(Aug_5,_1999_prototype%29
This build has protection to prevent people from using the disc outside of Naughty Dog, or their reviewers.
Protection level 1:
If the disc does not detect a special memory card dongle, then the game will not boot. It is as simple as if you see a string on the memory card, then boot. If the string is not on the memory card, then freeze. Interestingly, the dongles internal name is E3 dongle Copyright 1999 Naughty Dog, Inc., leading to believe that it was made specifically for E3 demo but later reused in subsequent builds.
Protection level 2:
After the game boots, there are 7 function pointers that are assigned incorrect values, which are incremented by an RNG before being executed. If a controller dongle is inserted, the controller will inject data into the RNG, then the RNG will increment the incorrect function pointers to the correct function addresses. Without the dongle, the incorrect pointers will execute, and crash the game.
In previous videos, we only had one function pointer working correctly, by setting a breakpoint before execution in no$psx emulator, and overriding the value manually. There were several bugs and instabilities.
Niko has spent over a year researching the retail game (94426), so within a few days, he finally was able to find how the entire function pointer system worked, and insert ASM that forces the RNG to return one value, which corrects all 7 function pointers, allowing the game to run.
Niko also fixed one of Naughty Dogs mistakes that was present even with the dongles, that would prevent the game from loading Relic Race on Slide Coliseum and Turbo Track.
In the link below, there are miscellaneous content for this prototype:
- GameShark codes that allow you to instantly beat Adventure Mode 100%, and unlock all rewards.
- A guide for playing the original ISO by making your own memory card dongle, and using GameShark to apply the rest of the fixes.
- We documented exactly how the ISO was patched, to learn how it was done.

This is the sixth preview video of the prototype of Crash Team Racing (PS1).
This gameplay is from the August 5th 1999, a beta version of the game built a month and a half before the final NTSC build date of September 24th 1999. This build is dongle protected, which means you cant play via normal means, so attempting to run it will result in a black screen. Were solving this problem, so it will eventually be released to the public. Dont ask for a release date because even we dont know and were also busy with other stuff, so please be patient and enjoy the videos.
A full documentation of the differences will be available at The Cutting Room Floor article, and a download link will be posted on Hidden Palace website. At the time, both pages are being worked on.
A HUGE thanks to almarkowbender, gdias/Darkaiser (me), Gh0stBlade, let-over-lambda, mementomori/madmarsrocks, Niko, and psx-collector for making this release possible.
Noticeable Differences:
- Tropys ghost is harder in this version, as he access some shortcuts that only Oxides ghost would do.
- Oxides ghost arent present in this build. Instead, you race against another ghost using the current players character.
- The ghosts are unfinished in some tracks (out of bounds), which is impossible to beat them.
- Menu differences: missing transitions, no exclamation mark in the texts, different X button icon, etc.")

Yes, online mode in Crash Team Racing is already a reality. In development by Niko since October 2019, its finally stable enough for a video, but still an early WIP prototype.
Two players can choose any characters on any track, to drive around and race each other. Niko and I tested the multiplayer, while 4000 miles apart, it lags much less depending on distance.
Bonus features include Oxide in Character Selection, pressing F10 for randomized characters + tracks, and pressing F9 for battle tracks.

Please read the on-screen directions in OnlineCTR.exe carefully, most common cause of crashing is when someone forgets to Press F1 and F3 (save state and then immediately load) before injecting the mod (by entering PID).
v19 has experimental support to automatically work with any emulator, prior versions only worked with ePSXe 2.0.5. Oxide character selection is still only for ePSXe 2.0.5 until further notice.
