talking about how it's all shallow and go get a key, press a switch, kill a demon, repeat. To be fair, that's all marathon is, just with a better story, that's actually integrated into the game. (and quite well I might add) still, without doom, marathon probably wouldn't exist)
When I uploaded the file I didn't realize how huge the file had gotten. I am a bit surprised that adding music files inflated the file size so much. Music is now optional for those without high speed connections. Although I would recommend downloading it with music.Xaser wrote:Oh, dear. From 8 megs to 92 megs? I think the general public would appreciate it if you'd make the new music optional >_<
Are you referring to the help screen? It is more of a joke than anything else really. It was my favorite terminal from Marathon: Durandal. I only included it to "set the mood", so to speak.Xaser wrote:Well, we've got two pieces now, seeing how the terminals have been done.
Being able to play Marathon with decent controls? That would be kinda cool.Sodahollic wrote:I've always wondered about a marathon tc. Wouldn't that be kinda cool? Really sweet mod though.
I didn't mess with the original Doom music as it holds a lot of nostalgic value to me.Per-Scan wrote:The irony is that after dl'ing the much larger file last night I tried playing through ultimate Doom this morning and the music isn't even replaced! So, the music seems only compatible with Doom 2 WADs...
That's cool. I get that.TwelveEyes wrote:Oops, I forgot to add A_NoGravity to some of the explosions. Fixed and updated.

Well, if you want Marathon with good controls right away, there's always the excellent port to Unreal Tournament.Per-Scan wrote:Being able to play Marathon with decent controls?

Wow, the Unreal Tournament port is pretty amazing. I can't believe I missed something like that. Thanks for bringing it up.JimmyJ wrote:Well, if you want Marathon with good controls right away, there's always the excellent port to Unreal Tournament.

That's one of the limitations of SBARINFO. I didn't want to use ACS to hack my way around the problem, so I just left it as is.MagSigmaX wrote:Great mod!, However it bugs me that when I pickup a shield battery x2 or x3, the amount of shield that they give me doesn't display on the shield bar, it only shows the bar for a shield battery x1 pickup, and thats pretty annoying because I don't know exactly how much shield I have left; Also all the powerups look the same, its confusing sometimes.
It's much better because it doesn't have wait times, it's faster among other things. Still, I'm liking the mod so far. Unfortunately, the file with the music is too big for drdteam to host. I'll upload it to another file sharing site though.Sodahollic wrote:Sendshare sucks anyway, could you possibly comsider using drdteam instead?
