developer mode

[lampman]

Having a real hard time trying to get developer mode to work. when i try to apply it to the shortcut ,it will read incorrect path etc.
How do i get around this?

Your shortcut target should look exactly like this (unless you have a different path):

"C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Max Payne 2\MaxPayne2.exe" -developer

In game, I think it's Ctrl + ~ key (or just ~) to access the console.

... just press the button that's above Tab and below Escape.

Only sort of. Ctrl is not needed and on my Scandinavian layout the tilde is not there, but below backspace.

Mine's between the Left Alt and the Space Bar.



...and it's 'she'

Thank You Folks
But here is the problem:I input the above info into the target box exactly as you have it and a box from windows apeers and reads,""c:\program files\rockstar games\max payne2\max payne 2.exe"-developer specified in the target box is not valid. Make sure path and file name are correct.
Then there is an option to click OK
That is all it will allow me to do.
I cant get in ????

1) It's "c:\ not ""c:\
2) There's a space before -developer
.exe" -developer
3) Make sure that IS the path to your game.

Other than those...I don't know what can be wrong.

That totally came out wrong

I'm a 'she' not 'he', not sure about my tilde key though.

[lampman]

Sorry the 4 dots before the C was just a typo on my part in my last post.
Other than that i have tried all that you folks have suggested so far.

[lampman]

EUREKA, THATS IT
Its the space between exe & -developer that was the stumbling block and with some work was able to get god mode.
Still have to work on this as i find lots of warnings and stuff that seems to be slowing down character movement etc.
But at least i was able to get to the next level { Dead on Arrival }

Thanks Again
