About a month ago, someone under the name "Maddeiman" posted on our board declaring that the mod was dead.  It's a pretty cruel joke to play on people, but it was convincing enough that some people fell for it.  Unfortunately, I only found out about this just now, and by then the damage was done.

What can I say?  First off, obviously, the project isn't dead.  Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm too stubborn or stupid to call it quits.  Even if I were to quit the project (which I won't), AT THE VERY LEAST I'd release everything created up to this point -- and that's quite a lot.  There's no way I'd leave people hanging dry after all this time.  Secondly, I want to point out that I'd never make an announcement that important in the general comments page.  All major announcements regarding the status of the mod will be posted AS NEWS.  Lastly, I have to admit that this guy has done me a favour, by bluntly reminding me that I need to pay more attention to the people waiting for the mod, and spend a bit more time releasing updates. 

Unfortunately, finishing a project of this size and scope requires a lot of focus and discipline, which makes it very difficult for me to find the time to post regular updates, let alone make anything more ambitious like a video.  Personally, I can't focus on the project if I'm hanging out on the forums talking about it.  Yet if I don't do that, stuff like this happens.  :-/  It's a bit of a dilemma for me, and clearly I haven't got the balance quite right yet. 

Anyway, this is enough of a kick up the arse that I'm going to give some serious thought on how to update the mod more frequently, without interfering with its development.

Thanks, as always, for your patience, understanding, and continued support.

Thanks that's exactly what we are shooting for. The main things we're focusing on are: Kick-ass Kung Fu (on a scale never seen before for Max Payne), and to try and stay as faithful to the Matrix as feasible (without limiting ourselves or getting bogged down).

My other concern is replay-value. The mod has taken a long time to make, so we want it to be worth it -- hence why we've built a custom skin & move select program, and have designed the combat along the notion of: "easy to learn, hard to master". In other words, the better you get at combat, the cooler things YOU'LL be able to do.

This will be my last mod for Max Payne, so I want it to be a good one. :)

I thought this project was dead, because the site at hellkitchen.paynereactor doesn't work. Glad you are still working on this mod!

^Good point, done.

Glad you like the 'new' screens (the smiths render is ancient, but it's pretty cool still). Unfortunately I'm really busy right now, but I'm hoping to have a bit more material up this week before I post a proper news announcement.

I see you've been had at work updating the site & it's looking great, i've seen that there's also some great screenies in your gallery now. I especially like the one of all the agent smith's ( don't tell anyone but I think he's the koolest thing in The Matrix, doh....
Looking at your great work that's been done here it's hard to believe that this is still only a Max Payne 1 project & not Max Payne 2.

Keep up the great work that your doing as I can't wait to play this one.....;)
