Appendix A: Cheat Codes

Although the optimum way for Max to complete his quest for revenge is without cheat codes, let's face it--Max Payne is hard, and you may need some extra assistance in the tougher sections of the game. If you succumb to the pressures of cheating, use these codes to help guide Max through the perils of revenge.

Keep in mind that using these codes will unbalance the game. It will make the game extremely easy, especially if you choose to activate invulnerability.

To activate cheat mode, you must launch Max Payne in developer mode. Do so by adding the command line parameter "-developer" to the Max Payne executable. You can create a windows shortcut and add "-developer" after the maxpayne.exe. Or you can launch the game using DOS mode and add the parameter there.

Once you're in the game, press F12 to open up the console. With the console open, type any of the following to activate the respective cheat.
