/\ Here's a link, its available from Community>other public forums at the bottom is the link.

I have recently completed the three games and loved them, however, I heard elsewhere that the retail releases had loads of extras for the three games e.g. better/extra music, betas, maps e.g. Jingle Bobs.

So I was wondering if it was at all possible to get these extras?

Thanks in advance.

Well, there are tons of maps and sprites and such available for download on one of the sites I linked in the last part of my original post. As for the ones included with the game on xbox live being released, I have no idea.

No, the game doesn't freeze. The screen just turns completely black. I have to press esc. and guess where the "Exit Game" button is at to turn it off and go back to the menu. I've also tried different resolutions, still didn't work.

Oh, the freezing question was for the guy posting right above you, Surma92. Sorry, I should have specified. Yeah I experience the same thing as you with OpenGL with the screen turning black, this can of course be fixed by using the software rendering system but then you don't get to use all the extra visual goodies :) I said I would look into a solution to this but unfortunately have not gotten around to it. Perhaps later this week.

I have no problem downloading and figuring out how to play the games and add in all the other extras, but...

im having issues with the TTEP's on all 3 games
is there a step by step how to do it

also not 100% sure if i did the HD scenery for the 1st game right either

ive looked on youtube and searched the web but i cant find anything
the instructions given dont quite make sense to me, if somebody could just help me out a bit in lamens terms it would be great

thanks in advance

In your game folder you'll have a Scripts folder. Copy the script file given for the package into the Scripts folder. You'll also have a texture folder with a name unique to each game. Replace that with the texture folder given with the package.

Change your software rendering system from Software to OpenGL in the game options menu and the changes will be applied.

Its been a while, but a few months ago I finished Marathon 2, now I'm about 4 levels into Infinity, and I realised I hadn't heard any in-game music since M1. What the Hell? Is this normal?

I get the music at the start of 2 and Infinity, but nothing in-game!

Helpz?

EDIT: I reckon it has something to do with the special graphics add-ons that are for 2 and Infinity only.

For the problem with the screen turning black, if you turn on the option "windowed mode," then it should work , though it will not be in full screen view.

I just can't figure out how to get around my problem. Unless there is no in-game music for two whole games. I doubt that. =/

  • 05.23.2010 11:24 PM PDT

Actually yes, if I remember correctly. M2 and Infinity had no music, just ambient stuff.

That's a shame, I liked the music in M1. =(

Don't cross the white line.

"Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Give a Halo regular a fish, and he'll complain about the taste, color, type, size, where you found it, how you obtained it, whether or not you'll give him more fish later, and I don't know how many more things.And then when you give him another fish, he'll complain that it's not exactly like the first fish. Rinse and repeat."

Thanks for the games, I <3 Marathon!

However.

When I try to get the reticule up by pressing F8 the game just shuts down :(

Do I need to change something in Preferences?

Tycho 41 49 seemed a bit unsure with his answer, so I am just comfirming it for everyone. There is no level music for Durandal and Infinity. You can always play them with Marathon music playing from another source though.

Forever Forgers

Live and let live.

I have 1GB RAM and a 2,4GB pagefile.

I just tried running it and kept the taskmanager up. The processor usage does indeed spike, constantly and the memory usage behaved in a similar way. I also noticed that the process list was filled with copies of CLI.exe, a process related to the ATI Cataclyst control center.

HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP PLEASE

i would love to try and play the marathon games but as i try to extract files fromm the M1A1 marathon folder it says the folder is empty and has no items inside....help :(

  • 06.07.2010 1:55 PM PDT

Where can I find the Marathon 2 engine source code?
(NOT the Aleph One source code)

It seems to be a secret. I can find it nowhere.

Released by Bungie in 2000. The basis for the marathon open source project.

Also, Gnop! source available anywhere?

Some of the recent posts in this thread have been so constructive.

I absolutely love Marathon. The way the story is told is outstanding. Durandal and Tycho, despite being blocks of text, are some of my favorite characters in a video game ever.

I'd like to point out Marathon: Infested, as its fairly related to this thread. Found it a while back. Looks pretty good to me. I didn't really enjoy resurrection, as it didn't really feel like Marathon. Gotta pull the nostalgia to get anywhere with me.

I'm back again! Poor you. ;)

I have another problem. Kinda wasted my oxygen in one level of Infinity, the next level, I had barely any.

Assuming I'd get a second oxygen canister as the level progressed, I saved a game, not taking note of how little oxygen I actually had.

About 10 seconds after resuming the game, I'm greeted with beeps warning me about my low oxygen level. I always die soon after.

Any way to restart the level? I've searched everywhere, and can't find anything!

Thanks.

Oh man, I hate that rediculous level. I'm fairly sure its impossible to restart the level, but you could possibly change the amount of oxygen you have by fiddling around with the save file, although I don't know if that easily possible or not.

Do what I do, and have 3 or so previous saves.
