Using his telekinetic abilities, Tex Murphy accidentally phases through a wall, entering the secret realm of the dead hidden within the temple. However, he is unable to return to the world of the living!

This time I put my video on Youtube, so give it some stars if you have an account!

That looks pretty neat... How did you get yourself stuck inside the walls of the Mayan Pyramid???

Um, so where is the glitch.
What happened was someone snuck up on Tex, and shot him in the back. Now you are actually a ghost trapped in the "Land of the Living". All you have to do is find Eric Draven.
I suspect the shooter was a jealous Gordon Freeman.

Totally by accident. Tex was running around, and suddenly he was inside the walls. Glitched right into them, somehow. So I recorded it.

Hmm, perhaps. Who else could be so silent?

I was originally going to say Codename 47, but went with the HalfLife reference instead.

This happened to me once a long time ago and I nearly fell over with dizziness.
Something else you might try: There is an Easter Egg in PD and I believe it is in the Mayan temple, one of the rooms. If memory serves, you use the jackknife on an eye on one of the walls and vboila! you see a totem pole with the game designers on it.
If someone remembers how to do this, please post a reply.

I've been there, and it is on my "to film" list. I might even do it tonight if I get around to it.

I was there just last week. You use the jacknife on the ceiling first, then the eye of the tortured slave.
I've been through the walls in Overseer and got into the gorilla cage, but have never crossed over in Pandora. I wish I knw hoe to do that at will.

Which Room is the Easter Egg Room in the Temple??? I thought it was the Map Room, but I couldn't get it to do it the last time I was in there... Thought I think I may have forgotten to do the Ceiling first...

Here it is! The Pandora Directive Easter Egg! Spoilers herein, of course:

You start in the first Mayan chamber, use the jackknife on the ceiling and then on the eye of the guy being tortured. Then you use the cash on the blue void. But after that, I don't know if there's anything to do.

I almost forgot-- this glitch happened to me before I got my video capture software.
Looks like Tex found a whole new way to sneak into the Ritz!

Rated them all 5 stars!

Hopefully someone knows what else can be done in the easter egg room after you give it some cash. I didn't even know there was such a room until I saw the video!

I'd been tooling around recently in the game, and I thought I'd show you guys one of the craziest things I've ever found. This is around the middle of the game in Sandra's bedroom, the second time you enter the room .... *after* you've already been to Autotech once already. It doesn't work if you don't use the keycard you get from there.
