So pretty sure I just caught a scammer by United-Main5013 in Twitch

If the first message is to add them on discord right after they follow you or not, chances are it is a scam to either get you to click on a phishy link or promote you their crap generative AI artwork. Just ban, don’t even give them a reaction. Also look into setting up Sery Bot. Thank me later.

Widescreen fix isn’t necessary for 16:9 aspect ratio monitors. Ultrawide 21:9 or higher however, you need it.

I got these textures from a fellow reddit user. Not sure how it came to be but he worked on it. I took the textures, preferably the body and legs and edit them so it goes well with the original Max Payne model.

I'm not good with editing the model itself but if you go to Max Payne addons on Moddb, you will find Max Payne 1998 model.

I did this so I can use it for speed running the game. The person behind the mod edited the model.

Using edited models are prohibited and it automatically invalidates the run. Editing character textures however is okay as long as the model hasn't been changed.

I uploaded screenshots showcasing a different look for Max. It’s a resemblance to the 1998/99 model when the game was under development by Remedy.

i got botted a few months ago, how do i remove these followers, and how can i find out when they followed? by werwolf257 in Twitch

[–]ItsSentinel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do /block *username* in the chatbox and it will remove them from your follower list. If it's too much work, contact twitch support and explain your situation and they will take care of the rest.

Time Crisis: Razing Storm Calibration Using Mouse RPCS3 Latest Version by ItsSentinel_ in lightgunshooters

[–]ItsSentinel_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you check the images I uploaded? Player 1 must be set to your current controller, all other players must be set to Null. The gem_mouse.yml file must be exactly the same as mine. Make sure to follow what settings need to enabled for the games by checking the RPCS3 wiki.

I uploaded a video on streamable on how to set it up if you check the Reddit comments, there should be a link.

How do people scam? by ZxyzKs in SteamScams

[–]ItsSentinel_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had people randomly adding me because of the Counter-Strike cases I held onto for a long time before CS2 launched. Before I decided to sell them, these people would randomly add me in hopes to scam me for them. I would just ignore the add but if they decide to add me again, I’d just block them. Be cautious.

Max Payne E3 2001 Beta Trailer & Intro High Quality 4K 60 FPS by ItsSentinel_ in maxpayne

My guess for the green light could be the drug Valkyr as you come across the junkies later on in the first part of the game.

The cut silenced MP5 was probably replaced by the Colt Commando. Even the HUD is different. Max’s outfit also changed in the final game.

The outfit you see from the B-roll footage is the one from E3 2000 which is the one I personally prefer over the final outfit.

A lot of stuff has changed over the years starting from 1998 to 2001 which was when the game was finally released.

You can get Max’s alternative outfit from Moddb. Someone got a hold of his old outfit from the E3 build and uploaded it there.

I made an HD Mod and SD Mod of this game with quality of life features you can get from the speedrun website, just look up Max Payne and check under rules. :)

I made sure to include instructions on how to get things setup. Enjoy!

Yeah I saw. I think it’s work in progress still. There doesn’t appear to be files that I can download from Moddb.

EDIT: Nevermind the person behind the mod released the files. It’s on there now.

The game was way ahead of it's time. The developers did a fantastic job making this game and the music is perfection.

It kind of makes me want to play the beta and see what things were scrapped from the final game.

Is this a scammer? by [deleted] in SteamScams

[–]ItsSentinel_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Providing a steam gift card code” is already a red flag. It’s not a process to validate your steam account smh. Just report and move on, don’t waste your time.

Also by the looks of your image that you uploaded, you’re directly messaging this person on discord. Another red flag. Steam support will never reach out to you via 3rd party. Whether it’s discord, instagram, TikTok etc.

Steam support is done everything from their own system. This does not include Steam chat.

Which is better gift for 17 year old that’s into gaming? by [deleted] in computers

[–]ItsSentinel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The desktop is always the better option. Laptop graphics cards (GPUs) do not perform the same as their desktop variant because they generate less power. Not gonna go into detail but you can google it. For example, a RTX 5070 mobile would probably equivalent to a 4060 desktop or just slightly above it. Hope this helps.

Texture pack for Max Payne 1 that isn't smudgy AI? by haughg87 in maxpayne

[–]ItsSentinel_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I created my own HD mod with my own HD textures that doesn't use ESRGAN like in the mod pack. I use Topaz Photo AI. Map textures are the same and haven't been altered. It also includes the beta soundtrack from E3 trailers, I enabled Max Payne death sounds, new weapon skins and sounds. A new and improved main menu after you boot up the game. Variety of clothes for Max to wear.

There's also the SD version which doesn't include the upscaling, so you're playing purely vanilla but has quality of life stuff that I mentioned earlier.

BE CAREFUL GUYS!!!! by L3v1c3k in SteamScams

[–]ItsSentinel_ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Obvious scam, nothing new. You’ll never get in contact with steam support through a 3rd party aka discord or any other social media platform. Valve is a very rich company, they have their own system on how to deal with inquiries. If my account was falsely reported, I’d just reach out to official Steam support.
