MP2 development stopped

[j]

Oh, that's out, is it?

*off to find it*

[MikaRMD]

And I am sorry if my topic caused someone to inhale their morning crispies... I promise not to do that again.

If you think that's cool, why not try out one of the matrix mods with 500 weapons, gibbing and a new neo skin!?!?!?


Er...
/shuts up

I might be the only one, but I found the level design in it a bit...confusing.

I bet MP2 development was stopped a few more times than that because of different events that go on in the 3DR offices images/icons/smile.gif

[MikaRMD]

By the way, have you checked out the Max Payne 2 computer cases at Falcon Northwest? Boy are they cool. My favorite is the third one with red "Max Payne 2" and lights coming from within. What do you think is the best?

You can find the cases in the news sections of at least these fansites:

deep six (http://www.3dactionplanet.com/maxpayne/)
MP HQ (http://www.maxpayneheadquarters.com/)
MP Area (http://maxpayne.g2h.de/index.php)

And of course at the Falcon official site (http://www.falcon-nw.com)

[Chimera]

I like the one with the graphic novel on the side the best. I wonder if Basky has her order in for one yet images/icons/grin.gif

[TRW_steve]

thanks mika!

I wish i'da put more time into fine tuning the basic level geometry and characters more if i'da known you guys would look it over images/icons/smile.gif

I just gotta say huge THANKS! ....oh and you just wait for "The Real World"!

Wow, this caught me by surprise. images/icons/blush.gif

I'll let the others know, I'm sure they'll be thrilled.

Thanks for all the positive comments, everyone. images/icons/smile.gif

I think theres only 2 though. The 2nd and 3rd are the same I think.

Different angles though.

If the guys at remedy would address the fact that Max wont run in WinXP, I would love to check this out.

[Wild Falkon]

...it does.

[biXen]

Maybe they should address the fact that you should install patches before making claims instead images/icons/tongue.gif

Bah, haven't been able to update PR lately, and I haven't downloaded Polar Payne yet, DAMN DAMN. I'm ashamed, but we have busy days at work this week. It looks like fun though, looking forward to crank it up.

[Bludd]

I think my heart stopped beating when I read that topic title. images/icons/shocked.gif :scottyisnomatchforme: images/icons/shocked.gif images/icons/shocked.gif

[Nessus]

ARe you guys saying the Max now works, in XP? I saw no mention of it on thier site and heard nothing about on the boards, so I just never bothered reinstalling it at regular intervals to see if it worked.

[j]

Even though I was actually eating breakfast at the time I noticed this thread, I.. didn't inhale. images/icons/tongue.gif

If it still doesn't work then you might want to stop by the technical forums.

So, if you haven't checked it out, grab it at one of the fansites (available at least at maxpayne HQ).
(this had a thread at the mods section, but I guess it deserves to have it's own thread here at the "main" forum)
Gongrats to the team behind the mod! <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">Christ sake, I thought you guys stopped because you were being sued by the wrestler! Don't do that again!

[Crashnet]

Dude! Don't do that! I actually WAS eatting Rice Crispies and I did INHALE them!

[Soilwork]

Wow, those are some cool cases.

Oh, I'm glad you're joking! *unplugs the toaster and removes it from her bathtub*

Nessus: I haven't installed any patches or done and am running off a fresh installation of Max. It's running fine on XP, always has for me.

Wasn't really all that afraid when reading this topic header when entering the forums, with Remedy employees working 12 hour days the only way the development could have stopped would be releasing the game. "Hey, stop working guys... it's done..."

Maybe that's not how it works images/icons/tongue.gif

[Jade]

Wtf...when I read the topic title I was going to die images/icons/grin.gif ...well...I have to check this mod I guess... images/icons/smile.gif

[scorpion]

almost had a heart attack there images/icons/smile.gif the mod looks cool i'll definitely check it out.

[Kevin's girl]

Don't do that Mika!! You scared the HELL out of me!! LOL I was like What?!!! But I should have known better that it was a joke! Man!
*looks around akwardly and feels oh so stupid* images/icons/smile.gif Was I ever so played!

[Ninja]

Reminds me of Goerge's "It's Done" thread about threee years ago images/icons/tongue.gif

[Burning Fish]

I wasn't afraid when starting it, Max Payne 2 is too long away from us... Fall you say? Haha...dont think so!!

[Theseus314]

If the guys at remedy would address the fact that Max wont run in WinXP, I would love to check this out.<font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I'm running Max Payne 1.02 on an athlonxp windows xp geforce4 machine, and that was originally a known trouble configuration.

No problems at all... ...except after months of trying I'm not able to complete "New York Minute" without cheats images/icons/frown.gif

Anyhow, bloody good work on the mod I think Maddieman et al. The unique use of combat is divine. images/icons/smile.gif

[Nessus]

Funny thing is that the demo always worked perfectly even when the game wouldnt. I have played through the hotel about 50 times.

[PlayfulPuppy]

Damn. Knew it was a joke thread, but was hoping because they'd stopped development and moved on to the QA stage. images/icons/tongue.gif

As long as we're taunting the forum goers..

/me logs off forums to go play new build of Max II he just downloaded a couple of hours ago. images/icons/wink.gif

Nessus, I have no probs running Max Payne on my XP computer. images/icons/confused.gif

I loved this title. I'm doing my best not to come here much, cause I'd like to be completely surprised when I play the game, but I had to stop by. images/icons/grin.gif
