Max Payne Anthology Definitive Fixes

Hello, this is a well-rounded fix pack, but I'd suggest updating the dsoal to the current build. The default out of the box setting works just fine for Max Payne 2.

Index of /hosted/dsoal-builds/ (vaporeon.io)

The old one produces static noise issues on a few levels (the most noticeable one is the first level).

Also, I don't understand the need for weapon patches. It does nothing but crash the game.

Wierd that the new version isn't available anywhere else, thanks.

Weapon patch is for mods, and you must have done something wrong since it doesn't crash when installed correctly.

Is this mod where the "level select" custom game option in the Max Payne 1 launcher comes from? How do I select difficulty when using the level select, instead of being locked into Fugitive difficulty?

I can't tell you anything about it, since I don't even know who created it.

For anyone who installs this now onto Max Payne 2, it will cause a crash when loading Part III Chapter 5 due to a missing texture in the "Updated Classic" mod included.

Unfortunately, using the mod will cause your save game to require these files and cannot be fixed by reverting to a vanilla game state.

 

There is however a solution detailed in a steam discussion here.

This solution requires you to install the Max Payne 2 Dev tools from here and use the RASMaker2.exe found after installing.

For ease, I have already completed this process and have attached a rebuilt .mp2m which can overwrite the file found in this mod. Password: pcgw

Updated Classic [tweaked] fix.7z

Thanks, didn't even know about this. Added your version to the pack.

Awesome thanks!

I finished the game yesterday but hopefully this helps anyone in the future!
