It is a hint to cross the part3 chapter 8 please follow. Now you will find your enemy
as ..throwing bombs to you.ok use the telescopic MP5 gun to break down the support of
iron bars by pointing at the red orange coloured thick screws.Now donot forget to move
around otherwise you will be in trouble ..ok then you will have to quickly knock down
the other orange screws which support the above top of the position where your enemy
stands. Hit them with bullets from oppsite sides donot try to break them, you cannot,
try to push thm out from one side and expel them from the other by using bullets.
Please note the roof on which you are standing is collapsing due to bombarding. donot
move around carelessly you my fall down and zero flour and die.So now expel all the
screws and video clipping will be shown that the upper top is falling and the enemy
escaped donot worry..donot remove your telescope and you will find him appear just
any whr beside your telescopic screen ..then once you find him at aim constantly
shoot him..(donot puse then he will through the ftal coktail to kill you) then he
will die and thus the game will be over.

Max Payne & Max Payne 2 The fall of Max Payne
Use the rasmaker and the rasmaker2 to decompress the game data, then look for the
following files
1. level_items.H
2. shooting.H
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
fire) all you got to do is edit it, or you can do the same thing that i do, i just
add additional zeroes to the values, and it makes Max dodging bullets like raindrops.

Playing max payne is cool but it's hell lot cooler to play mona, so for those of
you who like mona as much as i do and want to play her for the entire game use
this trick, find the file named "levels" and edit it with a notepad, you can use
the search feature, relax you'll find it for sure there's no name duplication in
this, then open it with notepad once you're inside find the parameter "playerskinname",
all you got to do is change the name to s_monasax_a or s_monasax_b or even s_monasax_naked,
you could look for the correct naming and other skins name in player skin folder.
NB: you must unpack it first using the rasmaker tool just extract the data.ras

My Mail- naveennr1989@hotmail.com
First of all run the game with god mode(refer cheatbook for more instructions).
Now in the very last chapter after you climb the lift and turn right in that
room you will see the steps breaking down. Now instead of waiting for the small
lift reach near Vlad using the jump cheats(jump30 or jump20)You can fire at
Vlad but he will not die. He will soon hide in a small passage. If you enter
the door ahead in the movie you will see Vlad climbing the huge hemisphere.
He will throw a cocktail to the door. Since you are in god mode you can walk
through the fire and reach Vlad in the passage. He will be still there.
Now you can finish the game by killing Vlad over the hemispherical structure
or you can jump down and climb through the small lift and make the Vlad in
the passage go to the hemisphere.Some gang members will come from that door
but they will die in the fire. Try this out

Poets Of The Fall references:
-----------------------------
On some levels, you will hear the song "Late Goodbye". For example, in Chapter
4, when the janitor tells you the code for the door in one of the beginning
chapters, he hums the song to himself. In Chapter 6, when you reach Mona's room,
you can hear her trying to sing the song. In Chapter 7, before you kill the
cleaners playing the piano, you can hear one of them playing a little section
of that song. Near the end of the game, in one of the dreams, you see a cleaner
trying to clean graffiti, singing the song.

Max Payne references:
---------------------
In the beginning scene in the hospital, there is a nursery in the corridor just
before you enter the elevator. Although you cannot access the room, examine the
pictures on display. They are from the original Max Payne storyline. The first
is Max and his family outside a house. The second is of his wife and child dead.
The third is of Max crying while holding a gun.

Television shows:
-----------------
If you are near a television, you can see a show that somehow reflects your life.
The one that most copies your life is "Address Unknown".

Mad policemen:
--------------
In the chapter where Max is suspended inside the police station, go into the
rec-room. There will be two policemen sitting on a couch watching television.
Walk up to the television and shut it off. The policemen will make comments to
Max and they will get mad at him, but will not actually do anything.

Extra pain killers:
-------------------
At the start of the game, turn around and open the middle locker. Inside will
be two bottles of pain killers to take whenever needed.

-----------------------------------
Submitted by: Pratik Saha
At the Part:2 Chapter:1(not prologue) See the full story and you will find it.

Hidden items:
-------------
In the warehouse after the cleaning imposter tries to trick you, kill his teammate. In
the room his teammate came out of is a forklift with a board and two barrels. One is an
explosive. Push the lever on the forklift and the board will slide backwards, allowing
you to walk up it. Then, jump to the box. Turn around, then jump to the other box. Jump
to the box next to it with a open box to find grenades, painkillers, and ammunition.

Tip for Dead Man Walking:
-------------------------
n dead man walking mode (when you've unlocked it!) ,shootdoge-jump into the enemies as
they spawn from their spawn pod thingies. The next few times they respawn they
automatically get knocked over. (making your gaming a whole lot easier!)

View all models:
----------------
Instead of -developer use -developerkeys and in the game use F11 to bring up statistics
and PGUP and PGDOWN to change character model. You can select everyone in the game,
but you can't use F12 to use normal cheats.

Help from the goonies:
----------------------
In the chapter where you get some "help" by a few of the goonies, use the following
tricks. When they shoot their guns, stay behind them. Secondly, let them take care
of all the cleaners and masked men (which will lead into the following tip). If there
are any remaining, have an automatic gun ready and cap all of them. One of the goonies
will be reminded of your name being Max Payne and they will turn on you.

Kill old lady:
--------------
In the "There Is No Us In This" level, the old lady that gives you the shotgun can be
killed during the intermission sequence where Max tells her to close her door and not
open it for anyone but the police. To create this glitch, throw either a grenade or a
Molotov cocktail at the ground near the door as you are leaving. This will cause her
to burn in the intermission sequence if using a Molotov, or get blown sky high if
using a grenade. Also, if you do a backwards dive through the door while exiting and
shoot the lady in the head as the screen fades to black, Max will be talking to no one
during the intermission sequence. This means that there will be no body on the ground
or anything else.

Hand grenades:
--------------
They can be very useful in game play. If you are about to enter a room full of thugs,
toss a hand grenade in first. You can also bean someone with a hand grenade, stunning
him so he doesn't have time to run away.
