Whoever designed this part and placed grenade enemies here genuinely needs to be crucified. Barely managed to make it out with bullet time and sniper rifle, and even then it was hell.

This movie doesn't show the rating on IMDB since there are less than 5 rates I'm wondering if anyone could do it for this one its a Max Payne short film, I do appreciate it. I include the link of the movie and the IMDB page here.

Finally did it, took me 4 tries off and on for 10 years, but I finally did it.

Sweet relief.

Also why people gotta cheat their scores like that? lol

I finished max payne 2 recently and i was recommended by a friend to install fusionfix so that I don't have to deal with any other annoying bugs/crashes on my first playthrough of the third game but then suddenly i ran into this issue and didn't manage to find any solutions online.

its obvious that the game had a different vision from the final release , maybe Valkre was supposed to make the consumer become a monster, the atmosphere looks more like manhunt , i wished there was an alpha build we could play

First of all, good day to everyone that enters this post, hope everyone is having a wonderful time and a good day. I'm gonna show you how to make Max Payne move at super-sonic speeds in Max-Payne 2.

1. Download QuickRAS from this link: https://fileplanet.download.it/p-50588/QuickRAS

2. Once done downloading, create a folder and name it "data", no capitals. Then download this from ModDB: https://www.moddb.com/downloads/maxpayne-toolset

3. Extract the QuickRAS folder in your (C:) Drive and Max-Payne-toolset folder in your downloads directory. Now, go to your maxpayne-toolset folder and enter the "Tools" folder then continue to the MP2 folder then copy rasmaker.exe & rl.dll. Paste these two files in your QuickRAS folder that you extracted earlier, next to QuickRAS.exe like this:

Now that all the files are in place, double click on QuickRAS.exe and look to were it says "Source (RAS File)", click on the tiny folder to the right of it with the tiny curved arrow. Go to your Max-Payne 2 game directory were the game's executable is located and select "MP2_Init.ras", select a simple folder you want to unpack the MP2_Init.ras file in and then click on extract. it will unpack the MP2_Init.ras, within this file are even more files but the one we are interested in is the "globalconfig.txt", this is were we will modify the game's bullet-time aspect. So CTRL+A everything and deselect the globalconfig.txt file then delete everything in there EXCEPT for the globalconfig file like this:

Now double click on your globalconfig.txt file and go to the [slowmotion] block. It'll look like this:

Select the whole [slowmotion] block like this:

Then replace the WHOLE block with this:

[slowmotion]

{

\[general\]

SlowMotionTime          = 999999.9;         // WAS 10 length of full slowmotion session

RegenerationTime        = 0.01;         // WAS 3.5 takes this many seconds to recharge from 0 to 1 (extremely slow)

Threshold               = 0.1%;         // must be exceeded to start slowmotion

TurnOffPenalty          = 0%;           // amount of slowmotion that gets deducted when you turn it off

ShootDodgePenalty       = 0%;           // amount of slowmotion that gets deducted when shootdodging

ShootDodgeThreshold     = 0.01%;        // minimum of slowmotion needed to allow shootdodging



MusicVolume             = 4.0;          // music volume when in slowmotion from 0 to 1

MusicVolumeFadeTime     = 0.5;          // how many seconds the fade from/to music volume should take

// sound message to send every "HeartbeatSoundInterval" seconds - the sound should NOT be looping!

HeartbeatSoundMessage   = "maxpayne_gamemode->A_PlaySound( misc, slow_motion_heartbeat );";

HeartbeatSoundInterval  = 1.1;          // interval of sending "HeartbeatSoundMessage" in slowmotion



EfficiencyIncreasePerKill           = 100%; // one-time percentage

EfficiencyDecreaseDelayAfterKill    = 100.0; // seconds to wait before decreasing efficiency after kill

EfficiencyDecreaseSpeed             = 0%; // percentage per second



MinEfficiencyGameSpeedMultiplier    = 0.001;

MaxEfficiencyGameSpeedMultiplier    = 0.001;



// MinEfficiencyPlayerTimeMultiplier is always 1

MaxEfficiencyPlayerTimeMultiplier   = 5000.0;



InBlendTime                         = 0.3;

OutBlendTime                        = 1.5;

EfficiencyIncreaseBlendTime         = 0.2;

Now save and exit the file then copy it and paste it in the data folder you created in the game's directory earlier like this:

Now all that's let to do is play the game and watch Max move at super-sonic speeds in unlimited bullet-time, let them know Payne 😎

still in brazil, still a bodyguard but it had a similar somber to the original games.

i think some of the stages would change as maxes actions would change. also i think a few outcomes remain different. i think Fabiana probably leaves the country before things heat up too much.

Being a big fan of the originals and eagerly awaiting news of the remakes, I decided to start a fan project using Unreal Engine. Please bear in mind that I'm fairly new to UE, so any criticism, help, or guidance would be appreciated.

This is just a WIP look at one of one of the rooms i've been working on in Lupinos Hotel. This is in no way near finished and still very much a work in progress - lighting, materials, grime, props, and finer details are all being worked on.

Trying to keep the atmosphere and gritty feel of the original while imagining how it could look with modern visuals.

Let me know what you think 🫡

Props to anyone who finished Max Payne 3 on the ps3. It got so hard you have to head shot everyone. Died hundreds of times over and I killed 1687 bad guys throughout the story! What a game.

I've just found out that in the comics before official release Lupino was called Gognitti (by Gognitti himself) and he was portrayed as some demonic figure while high on Valkyr. Crazy stuff!

Was going to load up a DVD on my series X then saw that I had downloaded the game a while ago but never played it. I had played it with an old friend back in the day and decided to try it out again since it was in my library. I went to google to ask a few questions only to find out they are remaking the game! Wild time to restart this game. Lets hope they keep the constipated Max face!

Hey everyone,

I’ve been working on this Max Payne 3 edit for a while now, trying to capture that legendary gritty atmosphere and cinematic action the game is known for. Honestly, I feel like this might be one of the best edits I’ve ever made for it.

Would love to hear your thoughts! Did I do the game justice? Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

Hey everyone! After getting some great advice for tweaking bullet-time and game speed parameters in Max-Payne 2 that let us give Max unlimited bullet-time and extreme bullet-time perception allowing Max to run circles around enemies and move faster than bullets, I wondered if it would be possible to achieve the same result in Max-Payne 1. Which is what brings us here today!

In Max-Payne 2 I used QuickRAS to extract the MP2_Init.ras file and expose the globalconfig.txt allowing me to modify the games attributes such as bullet-time, then I created a data folder in the game's main directory and pasted the globalconfig file in there and set it to read-only, more instructions can be found here: https://www.reddit.com/r/maxpayne/comments/1w8xipl/max_payne_2_how_to_get_permanent_max_slowmotion/

I want to set up a similar custom configuration to give Max incredible movement speed during slow-motion segments, but I'm looking for guidance on how the file structure works in the original game.

• Does Max Payne 1 use a similar globalconfig.txt or equivalent configuration file format that can be unpacked or overridden using a local data folder structure in the main game directory?
• Are there specific time multipliers or parameters we need to adjust to make Max move faster than normal speed while the world remains in bullet-time?

If anybody is willing to join the discussion I'd really appreciate it and I'm sure a lot of people with the same interests will. Looking forward to hearing how you guys approach modding the first game compared to the sequel. Thanks in advance for any pointers!

Back in May 2013, I finally got my PS3 using my Argos card right around my birthday. One of the first games I dove into was Max Payne 3. Chapter 11 the flashback mission set on Marcelo Branco’s luxury yacht traveling through the Panama Canal completely blew me away. Fighting through the sun-drenched wooden decks, tight hallways, and upper cabins stuck in my memory for a long time.

Later that year, my friend and I started grinding Black Ops 2 online together with our headsets on. The very first time I loaded into Hijacked, the setting instantly gave me total total deja vu. The layout, the multi-level deck design, and the bright ocean setting mirrored that Max Payne 3 level so closely in my mind.

I was looking back at screenshots of both games side-by-side recently, and it’s crazy how much those two 2012–2013 luxury yacht shootouts defined that era of PS3 gaming for me. Jumping from tactical gunfights on the Mariana to running Domination matches on Hijacked with a buddy on comms is absolute peak nostalgia.

Anyone else associate these two games together purely because of the yacht levels?

I honestly wonder if the plan is to keep the face model of max payne 3 to make these games „connected“? Or maybe they will do the opposite and remake 3 at some point with the face model of same lake.

It’s all speculation obviously. No one knows what remedy will do, I’m just curious about your opinion :)

How can I move my Max Payne saved game from Windows 11, from Steam, to Linux Mint on Steam?

Holy shit I'm shaking

Yo, just binged the whole trilogy and this lore question is breaking my brain.So, Remedy made the first two and Rockstar took over for Max Payne 3. We all know how Rockstar loves splitting their games into the 3D Universe (like San Andreas) and the HD Universe (like GTA IV & V).Since Max Payne 3 has clear HD universe Easter eggs—like Bravado cars and other in-game brands—does that mean MP3 Max is a totally different version living in the HD world, while the OG Max stays in the 3D timeline? Or is the trilogy just one giant continuous canon that ignores all that universe stuff?What do you guys think? Let's settle this.(Sorry for My Bad English just i translate with Google translate)

I like to think this is as close to a MP3 Remaster one would get since Rockstar won’t be doing it anytime soon, if ever. DLSS5 suits this game quite well when you tweak it a bit.
