Discovered a Sly 2 glitch
hey all,
i've made my research and found nothing about this glitch that just happened so i thought i'd share it, maybe i'm the first ever to encounter it ? if not, my apologies !
in episode 6, i managed to get Sly stuck with a treasure item in his hand. i can do whatever i want, the game is exactly the same, but Sly is holding this necklace in his left hand. i even went to the safehouse and Sly was holding it. pictures and videos are right here :

now, how did it happen ?
i'm on PCSX2, PAL version of Sly 2 (not sure it changes anything though, probably not related to the system itself). it was during the Spice in the Sky job. after blowing up the first train, i went back to the plane and found a guard that was patrolling right next to it with a glowing pocket. nothing unusual, i just took it. but i think i got in the trigger area of the plane at the exact same moment i pressed circle to get the treasure, so i got the treasure AND got on the plane on the exact same input at the exact same time.
and since, Sly won't let this necklace go lol. i tried to get another treasure from another pocket, but nothing changed.
i don't think this has any form of use, for like speedrunning or anything, but i just thought it was funny and shared it. was this glitch ever documented before ? or maybe in another form, it might be replicable in other areas of the game where there is an action trigger and a guard on the same area.
