You may be able to see other names by looking carefully at other etched pattern on the walls.

Hint: Extra lives:
An extra life is obtained for every ten butterflies Spyro eats.

Go to the Autumn Planis homeworld. If you are standing behind the rectangular pool, look to the left of the pool to see three lambs and to the right to see three frogs. If you kill them both (six out of ten butterflies), then jump up behind the pool along the wall, all six will regenerate. This will give you an easy opportunity to get the rest of the butterflies for an extra life.

Go to the circular area in Aquaria Towers, where you ride the Manta Ray. Follow the edge of the room and ram the sheep that appear. The sheep will regenerate with each "lap" around the room. An extra life is earned for every ten butterflies that are eaten.

Hint: Charge, jump and glide:
Much like the Tomb Raider games, you can mock Lara's run, jump, and grab move with a Spyro twist. On a ledge, you can charge, jump, and glide and almost never have to hover. When you charge off the cliff and jump off the very edge, you get a little boost into the air, thus allowing you to glide farther without hovering.

Hint: 10,000 gems:
Money Bags gives you all your gems that you paid him back after beating Ripto, thus giving you 10,000 gems if you collected all of them.

Hint: Permanent Super Fireball:
You get to go to "Dragon Shores" after defeating Ripto. All 10,000 gems and 64 orbs are required to enter the door at that location. A permanent Super Fireball power-up is inside.

After completing the game and receiving 100%, pick up the Permanent Fire Ball ability, finish "Dragon Shores" and exit the game. Then, without turning off the PlayStation, overwrite the character that was just used to complete the game. Restart the game and it should allow you to keep the Fire Ball ability from the very beginning.

Hint: Summer Forest Idol Springs portal:
As you first enter the world, swim in the pond. At the far side is a tunnel to the first of three puzzles. To complete the first puzzle, jump on the squares to turn the blocks yellow. Jump on the four corners in any order. Then, swim out to the idol in the center of the pond. Blow fire at the fish as they leap out of the water. Only blow at the blue and orange fish. The red ones will deduct fish. At the last puzzle, jump on the blocks in this order: blue triangle, gray triangle, yellow star, orange octagon, and green star.

Hint: Fracture Hills Orbs:

The first Orb is obtained by letting the little faun out of the locked room. You need to supercharge all the way through the caves. When you reach to the last one, jump left and follow that around to hit the door. This will free the faun for an the Orb.

The second Orb is located where the earth shapers are. Follow the alchemist and flame them so that he can get back to Hunter.

For the third Orb, once you have the headbash, Hunter will go around and shoot arrows at the earth shapers. You need to run up and headbash them while they are down.

Hint: Hurricos Orbs:

Find the two thieves that throw the lightning stones to each other with the other person in the middle. Replace the lightning stones and flame the thieves that come and steal them. Then, replace the rest of the lightning stones.

Use the Supercharge power-up to break all the large windmills and turn on the switches. Then, break the windmill with a staircase and talk to the man. Glide on the buildings until you reach the other man. He will give you an Orb.

After the man gives you an orb, jump the next set of jumps with the hover maneuver onto the buildings until you reach a high platform near the beginning of the level. Go in the room and shut the power off. You will get the last Orb.

Hint: Speedway Orbs:
To earn the Orb in each of the four speedways you must first find the hidden task to perform. The game cannot be completed 100% without the Orbs.

Ocean Speedway
There is a large group of spectators, ahead and to the left as you begin the level . Fly to them and talk to the fish-like lady to acquire the task. Complete the task to receive an Orb.

Metro Speedway
Fly toward the large group of buildings. There is a waterfall in the center of them. Fly behind the waterfall to find a person that will reveal the task for the Orb.

Icy Speedway
Fly around the main island until you locate a igloo. Headbash the igloo and Hunter will give you another task.

If you have not learned the Headbash maneuver from World 3 (since this Speedway is on World 2), you can simply land and run into the igloo. The Speedway's automatically supercharges you when on the ground, giving you the power to break it.

Canyon Speedway
Follow the path of goats until reaching the area with the circling vultures. Fly high above to the canyon rim and look for Hunter in a little nook.

Hint: Summer Forest Orbs:

Find Hunter near the large pond and he will reveal a series of jumps to perform.

Dive down a pool of water to your left where you started the level. Climb the stairs at the end to find the Orb.

Once you have learned to climb, go to the large orange circle room. Climb the ladder to find the Orb.

There is a door then some stairs in the room where Moneybags lowers a wall. At the top should be a window and a closed door to the right. Glide out the window and move to the left into another window to find the Orb.

Hint: Autumn Plains Orbs:

Before the stairs leading to the Boss Are some cracks in the wall which you can ram through. Use the whirlwind, and then the next one, to reach the high tower. From here, look ahead and you will see a tall platform in the distance, outside and to the left of the outer wall of the main yard. Glide to it and get the Orb.

Another description to get this Orb is as follows: climb up all the ladders next to Moneybags. Turn left at the portal to Scorch. Go down the hallway until you find a cracked wall on your left. Break the wall by charging into it. Go up the whirlwind. At the top of it, you will find a few gems. Then, go up the other whirlwind. Glide from the platform to the long green platform. There should be an Orb at that location.

From the tall platform (above), glide the outer wall and make your way to the left. At the end you should see another cracked wall. The Orb is inside.

Use the following steps to get up to Juliet in Zephyr. Find the Professor. He will give you a seed. Do not use this on the first one right there, instead go down the stairs to find a Cowlet (spotted elephant object). Plant it there, then go on the platform to get the next seed. Go back to the Professor with the seed, and plant it in the first one. Then go back to where you planted the other seed, fire it, and then plant it next to the newly grown plant. Climb the first, then jump to the second, then glide to the small platform to your left. Get the seed, and plant it in the next seed object. Climb up again and get the next seed. Fall down and plant it. Go back up again and kill the two enemies. Get the seed, fall down, and plant it. Climb up and go onto the new plant. Turn to your right and you will see a platform will gems on it. Glide over (you may have to hover at the last moment), collect the gems, then glide over to the next platform. Talk to the Professor and get an Orb and two seeds. Do not use the seed on the seed planting object. Instead, jump onto it, then press to aim and press to fire. It should go onto the next platform. If not, try again. Then, get the other seed and jump to where the other seed is located. Aim over to the seed planting place and fire. It will grow -- if it does not, grow, aim, and try again. Then, grab your other seed and continue up the stairs, onto the plant, then onto the next platform. Finally, plant the last seed, climb it, and listen to Juliet to get the Orb.

Hint: Winter Tundra Orbs:

Use the whirlwind in the courtyard to rise high in the air. From here, go right and find the a waterfall going into a pool of water. Dive in the water and follow the path to the last Orb. You should come out near Canyon Speedway.

Use the whirlwind again to go to the left side of the courtyard. Land on the wall. The Orb is just sitting there and is easy to find.

After you learn how to headbash, look for the largest rock near the entrance to the courtyard. Headbash the rock and to find the Orb inside.

Hint: Final gems in Cloud Temples:
To break open the gray box in Cloud Temples go to where you got the orbs for ringing the bells and get the first two. Once you go up the whirlwind to the next level where the third bell is, freeze the two flaming enemies. Get up to the level where the two flaming enemies are under the third bell. Instead of ringing the bell, turn back around and face the window. Run and jump out the window, then hug the wall to the right. You will land on the platform which allows you to light the fireworks to break open the gray box.

Hint: Exit Summer Forest:
To exit Summer Forest (without entering Autumn Plains or Winter Tundra), go onto the secret ledge (where an orb is found) and glide to the left and straight through the green top of the wall. You will also get an awesome view of Autumn Plains.

Hint: Bungee jumpers in Metro Speedway:
The bungee jumpers in Metro Speedway are difficult to hit as they bounce up and down. Flame the ropes, and they will fall to their deaths.

Hint: Final gems in Fracture Hills:
Use one of the following ways to break open the gray box in the little room in Fracture Hills. Once you have rescued all six satyrs, the temple will open up. Get the super charge and go all the way through until you come out of the last cave (with the ramp leading to it). For the easiest way to open the box, go up to the high part of the ramp, jump left and land on the top most level if possible. Jump left again into the room with the box. A second, more difficult way to do this, is to jump immediately to the left when you emerge from the cave, onto the ledge on the roof of the temple. Follow this to the end and then jump into the room getting the box. The third and most difficult way to open the box, is to get the super charge and immediately turn left and jump. Three more precisely timed jumps are required to get into the room.

Hint: Get first Orb easily in Fracture Hills:
In Fracture Hills, instead of going all the way around the course to get the first Orb, you can take a shortcut. Go backwards and jump through the speedy power-up to the edge on the left. Then, run around the building. When you get to the front keep going, then turn around before you hit the tree. Next, run towards the building jump and break the door. Note: This takes skill.

Hint: Ocean speedway track:
Hold X to go through the rings and arches. Go against the flow for the boats and cars and do them in the following order: rings, arches, cars, boats.

Hint: Gems in Autumn Plains:
On the level of "Scorch" in Autumn plains, before you get to the big bridge, press the button to make the bridge go down. Then, go down the stairs to the point at which you are even with the green lava. Proceed under the bridge, walk onto the platform, then jump in the whirlwind. You should find eight or so dynamite vases. Flame one, and a chair reaction will happen. After that, you will be up to your tail in gems.

Hint: Cowlet locations in Zephyr:

Just near the cage.

Walk along the wall behind Bo Peep. You will turn and find it.

Walk straight and past the second one and there is another walking around.

Go where Romeo and Juliet are found (take a left at the third Cow) and drop down. Run around to a green and brown object on the floor (where you found the second seed). Fire it up the stairs, turn left, and get to the large platform that is just before you started. Get the cowlick to the edge, or as close as possible, then ram it across. If it does not make it, do it again.

Go back where you found the fourth Cowlet. At the location where you turned left previously to go up the stairs to get to the big platform, turn right instead to see the Cowlet. Get it back the same way as the fourth Cowlet. When you get all five back, he will give you an Orb and ask you to find two others. They are found at the following locations.

To the right of (and facing) the cage there is a cave object with a ladder. Climb it, watch out for the two birds, and jump down. There are two Cowlets at the very bottom. To get them up, use the Super Fire Power by climbing the ladder and jumping onto the platform. There is an arch with a flame object inside. Walk through it and fire at the cowlicks (you can aim and fire with and , or just go down there and fire at them). Also, aim for the silver chest directly in front of you, and gather up the gems. Then, go right from where the two Cowlets are located to find a ladder. Climb it, gather those gems, fire the jar object, then face where the silver chest was and glide (and maybe hover) over to it to get that last gem. Then, just keep Super Firing the Cowlets until they are in the pens to earn another Orb.

Hint: Turtle box locations in Sunny Beach:
Note: You need Super Fire Power to break them all.

To the left of the person who tells you about the boxes is a small cave. Get the Super Fire Power and stand on the switch. The door will open. Press to aim, then press to fire at the box.

Just past the Super Fire Power object.

Go up the stairs in the same room as the first two boxes.

Continue on from the third box to a water pool. Dive down, swim to the other side, and go up. Go right, then straight ahead. Then, swim underwater again to find the box.

Face the person that tells you about the boxes. Turn around and go straight. Then turn right, then left into the room. Go straight and jump on the platform to find the box.

Same place as the fifth box. Go on the platform, then jump to the taller platform. There is a box on the ledge.

From the entrance to the fifth and sixth boxes, turn left to find another pool. Dive into the pool and swim to the other side to find the box.

Hint Moneybags' lessons:

Lesson	Location	Price
Swimming	Summer Forest near pond	500 Gems
Climbing	Autumn Plains near the sheep	500 Gems
Headbashing	Winter Tundra near courtyard	1000 Gems

Glitch: Free swimming ability:
Note: This trick works better if you have less than 500 gems. Start a new game, complete Glimmer and go to Summer Forest. Walk in front of Moneybags, but do not talk to him. Enable the "All abilities" code, and then talk to him. He will offer to teach you how to swim for 500 gems. Answer yes and since you already know how to swim, he will teach you for free.

Glitch: Summer Forest:
When you are in the Summer Forest, go to the left and find the little pool. Look around to find a little hole. Enter the hole and go up the steps to find an orb. Glide to the left and when you are on the mountain, glide to the right. You will be in the big lake and be able to use your fire breath without swimming. This will cause a glitch -- you will not be able to get out. You will have to quit the game.

In Summer Forest, go up to the secret ledge and glide to the left. You should see the small tunnel to the secret ledge. Glide into it and you can walk around without swimming and can watch the fish swim in mid-air.

Glitch: Aquaria Towers:
Find the hunter where you ride the manta ray. Then, go to the wall that blocks you from going out of the level. Hold Up/Left (or Up/Right from your point of view) and hold Square. If done correctly, you should swim slowly off the platform. When you get there, you can see through the walls at enemies. You can see all the rooms. If you go to one of the walls, you can go through it to enter any room.

Glitch: Breeze Harbor:
In Breeze Harbor (Autumn Plains), you can swim in the air. First, raise the level of the pool of water by lighting the fire. Then, go up to the steps so that Spyro is still in the water but very close to the edge of the top step. Dive into the water and the game will believe that you are underwater when you are in the air. Note: The game will crash when Spyro gets hurt.

Glitch: Stuck seed:
When you are in the place with Romeo and Juliet, go to the top with the professor and spit a seed at the red wall where you get the second seed. It will get stuck and an alarm will go off.
