Max Payne 2: Old School Remix, which builds on the idea of replicating the first game's atmosphere on the second game's engine, is updated with two more DMW levels which are remakes from Max Payne 1 (the first two being Cold Steel & Ragnarock Entrance).
UPDATE 04/25/2020: All the classic levels can now be downloaded as a separate pack.
Punchinello Manor - Most of the interior can be blown to pieces, good time with M79 Grenade Launcher.
Aesir Security - Steel and glass, no escape.

Huh, so this mod includes touch-up's and addon's to the actual Max Payne 2 campaign like SMOD Map-Add's to the base HL2 Campaign?
If so, I gotta give this a whirl soon! And are the 5 non-DMW maps custom built?
I don't get the HL2 reference, but the 3 Aesir maps and 2 Subway maps included were not specifically built for the Old School project if that's what you're asking, they were made by different people back in the days. Same goes for Roscoe and Ragnarock Showdown DMW levels.
There are 2 truely new DMW maps included so far (Ragnarock Entrance and Cold Steel) and 2 more to be released so in total 4 MP1 remakes by me. The Aesir one I completed last year but Punchinello Manor has been dragging because of other life stuff until recent times.
i mistakenly wrote this in the news thread so i moved it here......(man this is what i have been dreaming for max payne into max payne 2, i really wanted someone to do this and found this today, and its even better than i though, u didnt just changed the model texture but also the comic. what an amazing work. i wish i could have done it but i dont have knowledge about any of these. U r my fav now.)
Is there a mod for Max Payne 2 that really returns pipe or bat as melee weapon?
Not as secondary attack triggered by "F" button, but as a separate weapon.
I know, i know very good about changed Melee logic in MP2, but still i'm curios if there is a mod where we can play with a separate melee weapons like pipe, bat, crowbat, whatever.
I think there are melee mods but they are more like swords and katanas.
The bat and the pipe are more like easter eggs in this mod, they would actually require new animations and stuff. It's also that there are limited weapon slots and no one would likely use the melee weapons if you had to switch to them every time.
Really awesome mod, well done!
how did you replace textures in levels? Did you somehow get the source files for them?
I studied this tutorial:
I used ldb2rip to extract the original textures because it directly puts them in folders, like "externwall" or "ground" so I could quickly see which of them are likely used outdoors.
Moddb.com
And mostly paint.net for editing and exporting DDS.
Nice updates but i have a question.
I saw Old School Mod for Max Payne 2 and i realised that GP Channel and you made the mod. Why you needed to make a new mod page for this. No offense,but this mod is like 90% oldschool mod and 10% new things. As i read you worked on new updates for that older mod. Why dont you just update that lol
Hello Mr Guest.
"Nice updates but i have a question."
You're welcome. +1
"I saw Old School Mod for Max Payne 2 and i realised that GP Channel and you made the mod. Why you needed to make a new mod page for this."
Well I made this remix on my own so it would be logical to authorize it myself. The remix references, links & credits to original Old School Mod & Creators in many ways, also there's no financial benefit like ad revenue involved that I know of.
"No offense,but this mod is like 90% oldschool mod and 10% new things."
If that 10% consists of the new effects, half of level textures renewed, new weapons and a new level, then after all it's up to people if it's worth downloading.
"As i read you worked on new updates for that older mod. Why dont you just update that lol"
That page has a lot of WIP content I would have archived and cleared up, but for some technical reason I couldn't do that even if I am listed as part of the original team on ModDb. However I don't think this takes away from the original mod, which already builds on the foundation of other mods, in any way, rather compliments it.
