Easter Eggs:
------------
Submitted by: deepak
E-mail: dpkp@mailmetoday.com

Part I: The American Dream

Chapter Two: Live from the Crime Scene
Right at the beginning, there is a hole in the bricks in the wall. Cheat yourself
a grenade and throw it in. Your mission objectives now say "I had declared a war
against rats". A bit later, after walking through some water and taking out a few
enemies on a train platform, walk up the wide stairs. In the room at the top are a
bunch of rats... with Desert Eagles! Now shoot at one of the ceiling lamps that's
off. Hit the base of the lamp and it will fall. The rats will now battle each other.
If "your" side wins, the remaining rats will take up defensive positions around you.
If your side loses, the remaining rats will come after you.

Chapter Two: Live from the Crime Scene
You can shoot the wailing siren in the central vault area and Max will thank you.

Chapter Three: Playing it Bogart
If you walk past Rico Muerte's room to the end of the hall, you can shoot away a
boarded-up door. From this room you can walk across the ledge and shoot away a
boarded up window to find a dead body with a stake in it lying next to the word
"Buff" in blood (as in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer"), as well
as some other goodies.

Chapter Six: Fear That Gives Men Wings
As you ride the elevator up from Luigi's Laundry, shooting the speaker playing
sappy elevator music will bring another "Thank you" from Max. Shortly thereafter,
as you leave out the window from the room sporting the thug in the bathroom and
the TV news report, walk to the left and there will be a window you can jump
through to a room with two Soldier of Fortune 2 posters and a stash of shotguns.
If you didn't destroy the elevator speaker earlier, you should be able to hear the
music from within this room.

Chapter Seven: Police Brutality
When Gognitti reaches the locked door, there is a satellite dish behind you on the
ledge. If you jump from this corner to the ledge across the alley, you can drop
down into the fenced area and open a door to a room with a nice assortment of ammo
and a poster proclaiming "Dopefish Lives!" Dopefish is quite possibly the most
prolific character in Easter Egg history.

Chapter Seven: Police Brutality
At the basketball court, there is a Beretta stuck in the net. Also, if you wait
by the fence, an SUV wil drive by. If you shoot it, it will crash and the driver
will get out to shoot at you.

Chapter Eight: Ragna Rock
When you reach the inner stage area, you can "use" the drum kit and microphone and
step on the guitar for some interesting effects and dialogue.

Part II: A Cold Day In Hell

Chapter Five: Angel of Death,br> When you reach the grand piano, you can "use"
it and Max will play the title theme. You can get a different effect by shooting
out the lid support and trying again.

Part IV: A Bit Closer To Heaven

Chapter Four: Backstabbing Bastard
At the entrance ramp to the car park (from where you start), there is a stack of
barrels and an air conditioning unit that you can jump on to reach the roof of
the garage. Shoot the off-color panel of the shed there and it will fall away.
Inside, you can jump on a grate to fall into a room with the grafitti "R Thanks",
a radio you can "use" to hear audio from the production team, and a sniper rifle
with ammo.

Chapter Five: In the Land of the Blind
In the small room after Woten's office (where you find the Aesir building plans),
there is a small picture that you can shoot off the wall, revealing a button.
Pressing it will raise the couch on the other side of the room, revealing a
staircase down to a "private area". In it there is a big screen TV you can use
to play a 3DRealms-themed parody of Star Trek. In the adjoining room there is
a bed with chains next to a closet full of bondage gear.

Submitted by: [QRGR]Maverick
www.Gamezden.com

On the training mission after you have killed all the guys, jump ontop of the
van at the far end of the road and then onto the extractor fan box. From here
you can jump onto the fire escape and make your way up them where you will find
a breakable window leading to a secret room. In there you will find an imgran
and if you look in the drawers around you will find more ammo and some pain
killers.


Developer Messages:
-------------------
Submitted by: Tauseef

On the level where you are confronting B.B. on the parking garage, there is a
hidden area where you can get a sniper rifle & ammo. Before going down the
first ramp that leads deeper in to the garage, jump on the various objects
by the entrance to the lower levels to get on a roof with a small metal-walled
building on top. Bash on all the walls with the bat until a panel falls away
and then go inside. Once inside, you'll also see a radio you can turn on to
hear a rather humourous message from a couple of the game's developers.


War of the Rats:
----------------
Submitted by: Tauseef

On Part I: Chapter 2, you can cause the rats to war amongst themselves. Use
the developer command line cheat and give yourself a grenade (then "getgrenade"
in the console) at the start of the level. Toss it in the gap of broken titles
after the initial level_start camera panning. This will cause the mission
objectives to change to ''I had declared war against the rats''. As you progress
through the level, you will come across the two factions of rats -- WITH DESERT
EAGLES! Shoot at one of the ceiling lamps that's off at its base to make it
fall, causing the start of the war. If your group of rats wins, they will join
forces and follow you through the rest of the level. If the other rats win,
they'll turn their remaining forces on you.


Secret room in Asgard Building:
-------------------------------
Submitted by: Tauseef

In the second part of the Asgard Building, after picking up the video tape and
watching the TV news report about Aesir Corp being a bigger monopoly than Mic.
ft ever was, there is a small, dark room with a table, couch etc. Shoot the
small painting to make it fall off and a small white button is revealed. Press
this button to make the couch behind you rise. Go down underneath it and use
the control panel to open the door. Inside, switch the TV on to hear a funny
version of Star Trek (called the Void) and open the cupboard behind the curtain
to find, er... something else.


Easter Eggs:
------------
From: Stefan Ilivanov
Email: ilivanov@softhome.net
Easter Egg Number 1
In Act 3: Level 4 (the garage), there is an Easter Egg featuring members of
Max Payne's production team and some surprises. After the opening animation
ends, take out the four guys that the car has dropped off. Now, before entering
the garageon the right, face the garage and look just to the right of the
opening. There are 3 barrels (one, and then two on top of each other), and an
A/C unit coming out of the wall. Jump >from one to another to reach the roof
of the garage. You will now be facing a little shack on the roof, with a door-
shaped section painted slightly lighter than the rest -- shoot this with any
weapon, and it will fall away, leading to a room with a small grating on the
floor. Stand on the grate, and you will fall into a room with a dead hostage,
a sniper rifle and ammo, and a radio that plays a conversation between members
of the production team with a bit of humor at the end.

Easter Egg Number 2
In the rooftop chase sequence there's a room you can get to that has a poster
of Soldier Of Fortune II and some other useful goodies.

Easter Egg Number 3
In Chapter 3 when you start on the roof of the multi-storey car park you can
jump on the barrels and then onto the roof near the exit ramp. If you shoot
the peculiar looking metal wall you'll see it collapse. Then go through the
opening, drop through a nearby vent in the floor and you'll end up in a small
room. You'll find a sniper rifle and some ammo and a radio. "Use" the radio
for some laughs.

Easter Egg Number 4
When you walk in on the bank robbery, you can shoot the wailing siren to stop
it. Do this and Max will thank you.

Easter Egg Number 5
When you find the piano on the manor level, if you "use" it Max will play the
title theme. Shoot the lid support out to drop the lid and then try playing the
piano again.

Easter Egg Number 6
When you find the drum kit in the Ragna Rock bar, "use" it to play some beats.
You can also get the guitar on the floor to squeal and if you "use" the stage
microphones Max will say: "Karaoke was never my thing".

then edit the file with notepad, and change the values in the following parameter
1. clipsize (indicate the amount of bullet a magazine reserve)
2. pocketsize 9indicate the maximum amount of ammo Max can carry for the weapons)
3. shootingfrequency (indicate the speed of the shot, is it a single fire or a rapid

her aim is terrible. You should have a Molotov cocktail. There will be about three henchman
on the left side of the room. Throw the cocktail at them for three quick kills. Then, charge
at the woman with either the dual Berettas or the Desert Eagle. Once she is dead, kill the
coward using the dual Berettas. Do not use the shotgun, since you can only fire once per

walk on. When you are in the hall that leads to the red walkable lines, run all the way down
the hall. Keep running when you reach the red lines. The line will turn right; do not follow
it. Instead, when you reach that corner jump off at a 45 degree angle to the left. You should
be floating through the black, but will see a red line that turns like the one you previously
jumped from. Try to land on the corner where the line turns. If done correctly, you can take
the turn to your left and follow it to the end of the black room, and back into a hall that
looks like the one you just left. Keep going and you should be able to finish the nightmare
without having to find your way through the dark room with the red lines.


How to fend off 20 criminals with a baseball bat:
-------------------------------------------------
When Max wakes up tied to a chair after his dream sequence, all you're left with is a
baseball bat as your weapon. Instead of trying to sneak around ala Deus Ex, just walk out
into the hall to attract some attention, then run back in and stand to the left of the door
at a 60-75 degree angle and start swinging. Everyone will run at you, but your baseball bat
will make short work of them before they can get in the doorway to take a shot at you.
When you're done with this little maneuver, you have enough guns and ammo lying around to
easily get out of there alive.


Using doors as traps:
---------------------
If you can retreat to behind a swinging door and then stand in front of it, just at the
point where Max won't open it, you will block it for enemies trying to follow you. You're
then at your leisure to perform a backwards shootdodge while spraying the doorway with
lead. This can get you out of several tricky situations, and is also quite satisfying
in itself. Naturally, it's best performed with dual Ingrams or a Jackhammer. You might
have trouble getting more than two people in one go, though.

the shortcut and select properties.The target box will somethin like "C:\Program Files\Max
Payne\MaxPayne.exe".Just add the parameter -developer after it.Then start the game.During
playin press F12 to open the console.However in some of the operating systems like Windows
XP it will show that the path does not exist.In that case open command prompt,navigate to
the folder where you have installed Max Payne and start the program with the developer parameters.
For example "MaxPayne.exe -developer".Or you can just create a MS-DOS batch file.To do so,open
notepad and type the following - MaxPayne.exe -developer(The program icon is usually named as
MaxPayne but if it is not so you can change the name).Then save the file with any name you like
but in the Save as type box change it to All files(Leave the encoding field as it is).Then after
the name you gave to the file just add the extension .bat and save the file in the directory
where you installed Max Payne.And you're done!Now you just need to open the batch file you created
and during the game press F12 to open the console.You will see a thin grey line on the right side
of the screen and an arrow in the lower left corner of the screen.Some of the cheats you can type
here are:-
coder-All weapons,infinite ammo,god mode,etc.
getpainkillers-Give you 8 painkillers

Baby maze:
----------
* You will have to go through a maze where you have to find a baby. To get through this maze
easily, just stick to right wall. You will end up in your house. After this, you will come
to another maze that is not as difficult, but us easy to fall off of.

* When you get to the blood trail in the dark, you can jump across to the end of the maze. Run
to the end of the straight trail, and at the first turn, jump across. You can now see the
second door. Jump across again and you will be there.


First nightmare:
----------------
In the first nightmare that you enter from the girl that poisons you, you must weave through
your house. Eventually you will end up in a black room with red lines all over that you must
walk on. When you are in the hall that leads to the red walkable lines, run all the way down
the hall. Keep running when you reach the red lines. The line will turn right; do not follow
it. Instead, when you reach that corner jump off at a 45 degree angle to the left. You should
be floating through the black, but will see a red line that turns like the one you previously
jumped from. Try to land on the corner where the line turns. If done correctly, you can take
the turn to your left and follow it to the end of the black room, and back into a hall that
looks like the one you just left. Keep going and you should be able to finish the nightmare
without having to find your way through the dark room with the red lines.
