This article has a talk page!This is a sub-page of Development:Devil May Cry 2.
The retail version of Devil May Cry 2 contains a few leftovers from the scrapped bike stage, of which there would have been two. The source code contains animation assets for Dante riding and shooting from his bike, which would have been used for these stages amongst other assets.
Animations#
Note: The names for these animations are taken from the document si\motion\モーションリスト\pl00_ダンテ指定書.xls.

 |
バイク走行 ニュートラル（銃） ("Bike Riding Neutral (Gun)") |
バイク走行 ニュートラル（剣） ("Bike Riding Neutral (Sword)") |
 |
 |
銃構え ウイリー（開始） ("Gun Drawn Wheelie (Start)") |
銃構え ウイリー（終了） ("Gun Drawn Wheelie (End)") |
Additionally, si\motion\モーションリスト\pl00_ダンテ指定書.xls lists several animations that were seemingly not completed before the bike mechanic was scrapped, and are not present in source. These include animations for:
- Turning left and right (and while attacking)
- Accelerating and decelerating (and while attacking)
- Switching weapons
- Some kind of entrance animation where Dante would ride in unarmed before drawing his shotgun
Path: si\motion\pl00\SCENES
All animations that have the prefix "pb" refer to the bike.
Devil Bike#
devil_bike-obj1#
Path: si\model\em34\em34_001\MODELS\devil_bike-obj1.3-0.hrc
Date Modified: October 1, 2002
A devil trigger variant of Geryone.
em34_001#
Path: devil2\data\data\em34_001.mod
Date Modified: October 2, 2002
Seemingly a newer version of the same bike, with a slightly different mesh and an updated texture set.
Music#
bikef.ogg |
Shoot the Works |
|---|---|
There are two music tracks for the bike stages: bike.ogg and bikef.ogg - the latter being identical to the former, except for the intro segment being removed.
Both tracks are just Shoot the Works with very minor differences (mainly audio balancing.) The only notable difference is the intro segment in bikef.ogg missing some instruments.
Mission 5#
Mission 5 was originally planned to be the first of two playable motorcycle stages. After acquiring the motorcycle in the end of mission 4, Dante would ride into a a forested mountain pass, eventually reaching Upper. Bolverk and his wolves would've had roles in these levels.

The mission save icon for what would've been the first of two cut bike missions. This one would originally have been Mission 5, taking place right after Dante rides off into Upper.

Two variants of the mission start background image for the second of two cut bike missions: what would originally have been Mission 11.

Save icon for Mission 11, which was originally planned as the second of two bike stages, set on the highway Dante rides onto after leaving the burning factory.
Stage Geometry#
Path: devil2\data\data\st08_000.scm
The only level segment for Mission 11, featuring a bridge span with guardrails and a lamppost. This is not the same model used at the end of mission 9, which does not feature the supports seen here.
