MAX PAYNE 2: Matrix Edition
#############################################
ZIP FILE CONTENTS:
#- Matrix Edition v1.1.mp2m
#- Readme.txt (this file).
#############################################
This mod is my first attempt, it was originally just my way of learning the mechanics of MP2 modding but after a while it evolved into a decent mod, so I decided to release it, enjoy http://forums.3drealms.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif.

#############################################
INSTALLATION:
Copy the '.mp2m' file into the same directory as the Max Payne 2 exe file. Start Max Payne 2 and select 'Matrix Edition v1.1' from the 'Choose customized game' pull-down menu.
#############################################
MODIFICATIONS (woot!)
New Levels:
#- The Chateau, dead man walking map (by the Hunted).
#- The two bonus dead man walking levels from Remedy. (Mona's Playground and the Upper-East Side.)
Bullettime:
#- Slower bullettime.
#- Unlimited bullettime!
#- Bullettime Timer glows greener with increasing kills instead of yellow.
Weapons:
#- Increased the power of all the weapons by 50%.
#- Increased the penetrability of all the weapons.
#- Changed some of the weapons and ammo pickup strings, I'll get round to changing the weapon select strings some time in the future.
Music/Sound:
#- Changed bullettime music to Burly Brawl off the Matrix Reloaded album.
#- Changed the music on the main menu to Reload by Rage against the Machine, also off the Matrix Reloaded album.
Particle Effects:
#- Added a wave effect to all weapon's bullets except the shotguns.
Misc:
#- Added a motion blur when in bullettime.
#- Screen flashes green when neckin' a painkiller.
#- Added new backgrounds and a new loading bar to the menu.
#- Stopped the movie playing on startup and in the menu after no activity.
#############################################
Future Modification Plans:
In the future I hope to:
#- Improve the bullet wave effect and make it visible only in bullettime.
#- Get better at modding!
#- Look out for the Captain Baseball-Bat Boy mod coming soon to a Max Payne 2 game near you!
#############################################
Other mods by Harribo:
#- Matrix Edition v1.1 (lite) a smaller version of this mod for dial-up users. Its exactly the same as this mod but with no mod music.
#############################################
Thanks to:
#- theHunted for the Chateau map.

#- Shout out to all the modders out there!
Way to go, guys!
Another nice thing about Remedy, if they were Gray Matter and this was RTCW, every other single player mission would be a DMW mp2m by now. This is soooo encouraging - real day brightener! Again, congratulations!
