That would be awesome! I'd really love to play this mod but this simply makes me unable to play it. It would be highly appreciated.
And take your time guys, good mods take time, it's alright, I'm so happy some guys stick around still for MP2 modding, it's awesome :)

I'm still very hyped for this! But please disable those camera zooms when shooting (or give us the option). I remember playing Elements of Style back in the day and the mod was so polished and so good, but the "recoil" camera animations made it unplayable for me, it gives me motion sickness and is disorienting. Otherwise this mod looks so promising! I can't wait to play it.

Alright, that seems okay. I did not intend to do anything like this, so I'll try this!
Danke dir :)

Since there is no notable A-Life in this mod and very high respawn rates long routes can be quite exhausting, so I was actually waiting for a workaround, since there aren't fast travel guides either, so thank you!
Would you kindly elaborate further how teleporting can corrupt my save? I'd use this mod exclusively for fast travel, so this would be a concern.

At least a little fast travel would be nice. With A-Life barely existing if at all long trips with the fast and never changing mutant spawns really become tiresome after a while.
At least a guide letting me fast travel from Barman to Sid would be much appreciated! Otherwise mod is great so far, but I really don't want to sprint back to Sid again...

no, they aren't; you have to install them all in the right order.

I didn't understand how I am supposed to get past the bars directly behind the bunker door u have to open with the security disk on 2nd level? It's weird. You open a door just to find it blocked.

I just finished the first level and already have to say, this is totally deligthful. The retro surrealist feeling of this city is so wonderful, it's so gigantic, it feels like how I imagined walking through the world from GTA 2 or sommething like this as a child...
I can't put into words how nostalgic yet fresh this feels, how the attention to detail puts it all together and how many cool ideas were just in this first level alone. The occasional atmospheric soundtracks, the easter eggs, the awesome traversal mechanics throughout, it's just mindboggingly awesome and while there are still problems of course this is definitely already my absolute number one mod out there. Just this first level alone shows how much love was put into creating this and I just wanted to thank you for your work. A trip down memory lane is always appreciated, but combined with new and modern stuff like this level design, man, that's rare and absolutely awesome.
Had a little trouble to get it to work, crashed darkplaces and official remaster for me, got it to work in vkQuake, but lifts and flying vehicles damaged me a lot when standing still and did not work properly. Otherwise pathfinding sometimes is not that well done, especially when sometimes places look to similiar to another and I forget where I was coming from or where I need to go.
But those are just minor nitpicks that you hopefully will address one day and even if not this is absolute great material.
I am so hyped about the rest now and will come back here once I have more to say.
Just thank you for making and releasing this. It's great.
edit: oh nevermind, just now realized this is intended for ironwail and that I'm just late to the party with this new and obviously best sourceport now, sorry! sadly the lift damaging me problem still persists, even with vsync.

while I fully understand that people, especially oldschool doom mod enjoyer chads, dislike the focus on a sole mod that is pushed everywhere you got to admit that brutal doom really adds a lot to the feel of the game. this certain oomph that is added by a lot more hit feedback and better sounds just adds so much to a shooter game where u spend 80% of your time shooting and killing.
A few elements of brutal doom like the two mentioned above really can add to the feel of the game big time and I can understand why people wouldn't want to play the game without it, although those are clearly mostly younger players who are used to more modern game design concepts and thus desire weird stuff in doom like aiming down sights and the like.

Loose translation:
"Well, when now?
Despite multiple announcements the action title Max Payne is a long time coming.
But what takes a long time surely will be really good, like the first pictures and facts are showing.
Protagonist of the game is Max Payne, a young cop from New York, who lives a regular/quiet life with his small family, but when he returns home one day he finds his wife and daughter shot.
From this point on his life changes radically: he quits the force, becomes an undercover agent and hunts drug lords and the murderers of his family. But with that he creates himself many enemies and eventually becomes the hunted after the death of a colleague.
In a total of 30 levels you should be prepared for anything.
In a story full of surprises you go through a highly detailed landscape, which is created with the MaxFX engine that was created for this game.
Always in the third person you can shoot anything that crosses your path.
And with that we don't mean only sinister fellas, even walls and objects can be visibly destroyed.
The arsenal of weapons leaves nothing to be desired.
On the press of a button a slow motion sequence chases the trajectory of your fired projectiles.
In these seconds you can assess the situation and react faster than your enemies.
In a Max Payne you're completely left on your own, in the story as in the game itself.
There is no multiplayer.
Well, there won't be any snow on the trees when the game releases but until the golden autumn you'll have to wait in pleasant anticipation."

My english isn't as good as it used to be and the text was not written very well in German as well, rather cringy to be frank, but especially in the early times of German game journalism they came from the oldschool of journalism and tried to garnish every sentence in a script with phrases and figures of speech.

hype

Definitely one of the most ambitious and promising mods to date! I am really excited to play this!
One little detail though: I'm not a fan of those weird camera recoil animations when shooting the M4, it feels odd and distracting.
Other than that this is great, movement and animations are great, the ragdolls are really cool and the models look good, too!

That sounds great! Will try it as soon as I start my next GAMMA run. Thanks for your work.

Is this clean of the infamous game-crashing, performance-killing and save-corrupting models that are the reason why HD-Models aren't part of GAMMA in the first place? Would love a version that manages this!

this is weird af and I don't know why you do this but it's really interesting and definitely cool

Wow! This is awesome. Downloading now. Definitely some among those that I lost over the years... Thx!

thx man :) this takes me back to the good old days

the animations are really well made and smooth, love it.
but shouldn't the wielder of a shield like this crouch a little to cover his feet as well?

this looks cool as hell. very nice animations! can't wait to play this :)

beautifully terrifying

same question

Wow. This article really helped me in general understanding of how realtime 3d rendering works. Thanks man, this was so helpful beyond anything that has to do with this game :D

oh ****, thanks, how embarassing

As the mod name clearly states 1.5.1 and the Anomaly folder contains a blank file that says "DO_NOT_INSTALL_OLD_ADDONS" I am 99% sure that it doesn't! But hey, just try it and tell us

Thank you so much, after playing a lot if Misery back then and a lot of "vanilla" green vegetation this is a welcome change and boy, does it look good. Actually I even took some of the screenshots into my wallpaper rotation <3

This is so cool, I really like the modern approach to the classics, keep up the good work!

those gloves are damn sexy

I doubt plastic titties are practical in the zone, at least cover 'em, goddamn...

It was a quiet day. Mishka took another sip of vodka and enjoyed the clear sky above him, bathing in the sunlight.
As he was seriously considering opening his sunrise suit to let the sunlight warm his battle scarred chest he saw something moving in the distance. He grabbed his AK-74 and pointed his PSO-01 exactly where he saw the movement.
Was that a strand of hair?
He put his gun down and shook his head, rubbing his eyes.
Then he took aim again. The strand of hair was gone.
He laughed at himself. Purple hair! Ha. Styled, purple hair, in the middle of the zone. The laughter, of course, turned to a serious cough. He coughed for a while, scratching deeply in his lungs. I really should wear my mask more regularly, he thought.
Then suddenly something was moving right behind him. He turned around, his trusty AK ready to kill and saw a creature with a huge head and styled, purple hair. He had seen a lot of abominations in the zone in all his years here, but never something so twisted and hideous like this.
The creature raised its arms and screamed, in a child like, high pitched voice.
"YAMEETEEEEEEEE!!!"
Mishka wanted to shoot. He really wanted. But he couldn't. If this was what the zone was evolving into, he didn't want to be a part of it.
Before the creature could even realize it, Mishka dropped his AK, grabbed his Makarov, thought of his wife at home for the last time and shot himself in the head.

yeah well, without Arsenal Overhaul this is worthless to me at least. I hope I can install AO3 as well, then this is exactly what I need
