How To Cheat The Aztec

Step by Step guide of how to open the Glass door in the Aztec level without actually paying Jaws a visit.

Note: That very short bit at the beginning wasn't actually intentional. I had previously made another intro vid but later scrapped it and replaced it with the old one. I didn't notice I hadn't deleted that last little bit. Stupid I know but hey.

Note: Yes I am wearing an England Top Hat but No I'm not English. I'm Scottish born and bred. I bought this hat while visiting family down in York during the 2006 World Cup so as to blend in.

2 people cannot unlock or complete the aztec

@andreww1129 ... Or 2 people refuse to cheat haha

For what it is worth, I have gotten the guards to open the glass door with a weapon out before. It was a laser with Invisibility mode turned on, and the guy did not open the door right away. I was standing right next to him when he did it. Since they could not see me, I had to lure them into the security room by shooting the ground at their feet.

[DarwenLane]

@lordxorus Yeah the whole business of having a gun out or not has no effect. I've tried this many times both armed and unarmed and theres no difference in the success rate.

Just wondering out of curiousity, which is Darwen's "real" voice in these videos?

I mean on some videos he has a pretty sharp and dark voice (like in this one) but in some others he sounds different (especially on his cheat runthroughs for Train and Caverns).

[DarwenLane]

@Laurelindo Had never noticed the difference until now, but I'd say this sounds more like i normally talk. Not sure why the differences exist in the first place haha.

"Those twits just opened the door"...epic

[sumbodyshero]

i would argue that this is not a glitch. The AI is doing exactly what it was programmed to do. Therefore, I would argue that if you beat the level this way then you deserve the rewards better than someone who did beat Jaws, because you REALLY DID beat the game: you outsmarted the developers. From the perspective of a game designer, I say bravo; I'm really impressed.

As always, "Don't work harder--work smarter."

this worked once for me but then i got killled by gaurds from behind

[Alstom1995]

For anyone still trying to achieve this, I found an even easier way. Someone else mentioned to take out all the guards in the corridor except for the one at the very end. Shoot the wall, run away back to the control room and then continue as usual. This worked for me twice in a row now.

[Marco75552]

the firs time those guys kill me the second one works

[goldeneyeplayer]

@LukePettit ok thanks for that ive tried luring jaws back to the glass door but that dosent work i keep getting killed by him near the shutle room where you launch the shuttle

[LukePettit]

@goldeneyeplayer 1 getting the guidance data out is just quicker cos u can rush in once the door is open, do the objective and leave without killing guards. But it works as long as u are at the glass when the mainframe closes.

2 All guards on the game can open any door if they are alerted. They dont have to have the keycard.

[LukePettit]

@TheShadow772 Not sure if you've got this to work yet but you can open the mainframe for them after going to glass which helps them to not get stuck. If ur slow dont pause for guidance data just stand there until the mainframe closes and then open it for them. Also dont kill the last guard of the 3 on the left and instead just shoot into the wall at the end which will alert the 2 guards used in this vid plus the last guard on the left. Having more guards increases the chances of them opening it

[ShadowSlash420]

I've been thinking about this cheat and why the guards can open the door without keycards. When you kill jaws and get the smart card and open the glass 2 guards come from the area that you start out in, in an attempt to make it harder by you being ambushed thinking you've routed everyone and beaten the level, and since the glass is bulletproof they have to be able to open it somehow. I believe the bryan guy (best player in the world) wondered if he could use that to his advantage, which he seem

[lordxorus]

@DarwenLane I guess it still makes sense to put the gun away for speedrun purposes. If you have the guidance data out, you can run around the guards and upload that instead of spending time shooting them. It's just a little odd that they have robotic gun turrets that are so sophisticated that they can identify invisible people as hostiles, but they cannot change the space shuttle trajectory from the ground by switching out a floppy disk.
