Quake II: Lost Marine (Test Build 0.96)
Aug 23, 2010 Demo 10 commentsThe highly anticipated release of the Quake II: Lost Marine QuakeCon 2005 Test Build for DOOM 3. Get your guns and gear ready for this action packed remix...
In an interview with GameSpy back in 2003, John Carmack made waves in gaming news with the mention of wanting to do a Quake 2 Remix within the DOOM 3 Engine. This triggered the hunger of the gaming community in hopes that a Quake 2 in DOOM 3 vision would eventually see the light of day. That's where I stepped in and began working on this project full time. Now the project involves a small team of talent driven on making that vision a reality. This project is for John Carmack who consistently leads the industry in taking us closer to a more immersive gaming experience, and for the gaming community as a whole.
Quake 2: Lost Marine is a Total Conversion for DOOM 3. The mod is recreating the Quake 2 experience in a whole new light through it's Single Player and Multiplayer components. Our aim is to give players a whole new Quake 2 experience and not just a remake of the original. While you may experience some gameplay from the original, most of the experiences are completely new. We have done away with linear gameplay and have given the player multiple ways to deal with situations. This is Quake 2 the way we want to see Quake 2 done within the DOOM 3 engine. While many people have speculated what this project is all about, what it's intentions are, and what our goals for the project might be, we're going to distill those theories right here.
- This mod is not a direct port of Quake 2 into DOOM 3.
- No assets from Quake 2 have been used. We have created all content from scratch.
- We are not recreating a faithful Quake 2 clone. This has almost all new gameplay.
- We are not recreating the whole game.
- We are not selling this game.
- We are not designing to resemble Quake 4. This is our own vision.
- We are not in a competition against other mods.

This is a Single Player Demo only. This is not the full or final polished release of the mod. This is only a test build, for progress showing and bug feedback reporting. There are still things we need to finish, including animations, code, art etc. It's packaged in a Windows Installer and is also ready for burning a backup copy of the mod to CD. Don't forget to grab your CD Labels on the Downloads page as well.
It's been a tough 4 months developing this demo, but I promised to have something playable by QuakeCon 2005 and I delivered on that promise. Everyone did an excellent job. So without further delay, just click that download button and go kick some Strogg ass! You will need have installed the latest 1.3 Patch.

It's so damn good to be dead...
Might be dead.
Alive?
I get a black screen. I can hear everything when I click I hear punching and stuff, but its ALL black. But when I hit escape I see the menu. Anybody know how to get this working on the Steam version?
when i start the mod i see this :
wrong game DLL API version
help me , I want to play this mod x(
"wrong game DLL API version" means you need to patch the game to 1.3.1 version.
Or downgrade your game to the patch supported by the mod. The mod doesn't run on 1.3.1...
Thanks for the great mod.
These are my ideas to make this mod better:
Add reloading animation to your weapons
Work more on enemies animations (use alot of animations)
Add swiming animation (Like FarCry)
Marine Could jump when you are under water
Make pistol shooting faster
Change grenade's model
This mod isnt in development anymore... Just check when this modpage was updated last time.
And you, you should check the comment date...
Man, I love this mod.
