    Post I need help with a PC game

    i beat the game Max Payne but now i want to use cheats. i have all the cheats but i don't know how to use them

    i have to do this first: To get access to the game console, you need to start maxpayne.exe with the command line parameter "-developer".

    what does this mean? how do i change it to developer? and whats a command line parameter?

    you must start the game from the ms-dos prompt. for example : C:\>maxpayn -developer

    that way you can press the ~ (left to the 1 button) in the game ..and a small console will pop-up ..there you can enter the cheats.
    (same way with ut..half life, quake 3, and almost any shooter I know)

    Just edit the shortcut in your start menu by adding the -developer command. Right click on the shortcut, and select properties.

    You can use the Run menu as well. Just type something like maxpayne -developer.
