Plaza Raid Mod (PR Mod) offers a new experience for Max Payne 2 with its Plaza Raid Level, a new Dead Man Walking level, and a tutorial level. Basically, the whole idea of this mod is about Max Payne being a police team member to strike Iron Plaza, which has been occupied by armed bad guys (cleaners). Your primary objective is to kill Kaufman (cleaner leader). To play Plaza Raid level, simply click 'Start Plaza Raid' on the main menu. To play Tutorial level, simply click 'How to Play'. And, to play Plaza Lobby Dead Man Walking level, click 'Plaza Lobby' on Dead Man Walking menu (you must first finish the game in Detective mode in order to access Dead Man Walking).
Plaza Raid Mod was found by Underground in early December 2003. It was the first mod made by me for Max Payne 2 : The Fall of Max Payne. The first version of the mod, version 0.6 Alpha, was released just few days later but limited only to 3DRealms forum community. Even though it contains so many bugs and glitches, the first version of Plaza Raid Mod (PR mod) got good respond from the public. The second version of the mod, version 1.0, was released on late December 2003, and unlike the first version, it was released but not limited only to 3DRealms forum community, but also to all Max Payne 2 community. It also got positive respond from the public, despite some minor problems that occur in some computer.
The latest version, Plaza Raid Mod version 1.4, was released on 5 July 2004 and the development process took 6 months. It offers many new features such as new Dead Man Walking level, new tutorial level, expanded Plaza Raid level, and of course with fix to the previous bugs and glitches within the mod. During the develop-ment process of this version, Deflex joined Plaza Raid Mod and soon became Co-Leader with job mainly on mapping, modelling, and skinning. However, Deflex quitted the project just few days before the version 1.4 release.
