Elements Of Style (EOS) should be very satisfying to the many people that have found Max Payne 2's original gameplay to be very flat and/or stale. Because of MP2's gameplay, many other mods sometimes feel stale after a while because the gameplay is still the same. EOS takes the Max Payne 2 gameplay and specifically refines it wherever needed while also making the combat so much more appealing and exciting. This mod has received perfect scores on every site it has been on. Download this mod and trust me, you won't be disappointed

Recently, I have released an Elements Of Style Version 2.0 early Build Trailer put together by TriX. Though this build is outdated in 2.0, development wise, it does show off alot of new effects such as new bullet impacts, etc. and moves (including a suprising glimpse of the katana).
This is a High Resolution Trailer That is about 80 mb big, and over 3 minutes. Enjoy

This a a high quality video of the Elements Of Style Trailer created by TriX. Get this version if you would like to actually be able to see the extreme...
Video created and edited by TriX (my only team mate) using Elements Of Style Version 1.5 which was created by myself (Dalte89). A video of the one of...
*DOWNLOAD FIXED AND WORKING* Elements Of Style (EOS) should be very satisfying to the many people that have found Max Payne 2's original gameplay...

when 2.0 is released all the known bugs are already fixed
During the loading i hear a sound in the background like that of an error and then the game closes itself and a message appears sayiong that MAX PAYNE 2 has encountered a problem and needs to be shut down and gives a option to send or downt send the error report
Playing this Mod..
The first thing i tried was going to Music options, selected 'Disable Music' (or something similar) You know what i mean. Game crashed.
Ok happens, not a big deal ;)
Major bug: Chaper 1, Level 3 & Chapter 2, Prologue (so far)
Something about Bravura.
Can't load/play particular Level.
= Game crashes, error-message:
Exception:
A reference to shader material "Glasses" defined in file "S_JimBravura_Indoors.txt" couldn't be resolved
Closing...
Well, something about the Glasses ? you gotta fix that.
However the first or second Map where he gets killed at the elevator works w/o problems.
Cool Mod. EXCESSIVE... hell ..wow... for me its sometimes almost a little too much. Best thing is definitively the Blood
"could not open max payne savegame"- that error shows up because when you where playing a normal max payne 2 and switched for mod the kind of save file is also different from normal to mod to play the EOS mod i give you 2 pieces of advice:1-start the game over and dont overwrite the save of the normal game(in case u miss the normal one) and 2-go to options when you open the shortcut and the video settings need to be kinda low plus turn the pixel shader skins off.(that did the trick with me:) greetz from joedirt553
BTW, you guys can probably write this down as dead, seeing the last time the user was active was backin '07.
Pity, this is a good one.
x.x 2.0 plox k?
Sorry but the trailer frickin owns and the waiting is not good for my patience levels...
Though this mod...
... like most mods...
frickin screw up the shaders which causes a crash sooner or later.
And seeing this mod uses new shaders I really wanted to leave it on -.-;
1.5 is missing hand to hand combat feature mode enable, only when unarmed.
Good mod.
