Anyone know how to force Max Payne to run in a window in OS X? I found this (http://www.cheatchannel.com/files/maxpayne.htm) which explains how, but I can't see to get it to work. Is there more to the syntax than typing "window" in the console?

Did you read the Read Me for Max Payne?
This is what has to be in the shortcut for it to work:
"C:\Program Files\Max Payne\MaxPayne.exe" -window

Firstly are you using a PC version of Max Payne with an emulator on Mac OS X or are you using the Mac OS version of Max Payne?

You must specify this because native Mac OS applications
do not have an .exe extension as you know if you are using it.

I reckon a switch is a pretty universal thing though so what is mentioned above will work if you are using the Mac OS X version of Max Payne.

You would change the shortcut from:

"path.to.game.executable/maxpayne.exe" -window

to use the extension for Mac OS X applications instead of .exe used by Windows.
I haven't a clue what this is yet, but you should know if you are using MacOS X. Remove the " and " if Mac OS X shortcuts don't use them before a switch.


The switch has nothing to do with the ingame console.
