This Seeking Tech guide will explain how you can get Green Herbs at the beginning of Resident Evil: Code Veronica X, essentially giving the game an easy mode.
The helpful glitch should work for Resident Evil: Code Veronica X on PS4 and PS5, as well as Resident Evil: Code Veronica X HD on PS3 and Xbox 360, Xbox One, Xbox Series S and Xbox Series X.
For this glitch to work, you need to follow the exact steps from the start of the game:
Use the following video as a visual aide:
1. Equip the lighter from the menu to get out of the jail cell.
2. Go past the grave site to get the handgun.
3. After getting the handgun, open the left door.
4. In the new area, head up the steps of the cabin, and then pick up the Green Herb on the other end.
5. Open the inventory menu, go to File and read the Playing Manual.
6. Exit the inventory menu and fire your handgun. The gun should run out of ammo after the first shot, which indicates that the glitch is working.
The Green Herb you just picked up should now have infinite uses as long as you don’t mix it with another herb. The infinite herb can also be transferred over to Chris if you put it in an Item Box before the end of Part 1.
It should be noted that you can also use this glitch to get infinite ammo. You just need to make sure that the item you want infinite uses for is placed one slot after the handgun before reading the manual from the File section of the menu.
With infinite Green Herbs, the game becomes a whole lot easier as you only have to worry about enemy attacks that can instantly kill one.
With that said, you should still pick up any herbs and first aid spray you see and store them in the Item Box. This is because the game has two playable characters and you only have one infinite Green Herb.
The best way to use this glitch is to put the Infinite Green Herb into the Item Box before fighting the final boss of Part 1 as Claire. When you start Part 2 as Chris, get the Green Herb from the Item Box for his playthrough.
In Part 2, you will be playing as Chris a vast majority of the time, with the exception of a small section with Claire. So, you should keep the infinite Green Herb on Chris.
For Claire’s section in Part 2 of the game, make sure you gather enough healing items beforehand. The boss she will be running away will require at least 2 healing items if you want to survive and escape. That is why it is important that you keep picking up herbs and first aid sprays to make this fight, as well as Claire’s final boss fight in Part 1, easier.
