Finally, a plugin that ruins mararthon.

This is a plugin for any marathon scenario that will act kind of like GPS navigation when activated. It can show just about any worthwhile objective on the map, and in most cases lead you directly to them.

This is a huge cheat, so it's not really recommended if you want the "true" marathon experience. It's for people that either don't have the patience to navigate through mazes themselves, or for people that just want to make sure they found everything on a given level. It can be very useful for tracking down all secrets.

Notes for version 1.1:

• Added ability to permanently ignore certain items and monsters
• Handle jumping gaps better in some limited cases

For the first time in digital quality, you can hear Marathon's music as it first shipped in 1994.

The default M1A1 tracks use QuickTime 2.5, released in 1996, which changed some of the instruments. These files were recorded with QuickTime 2.0, which shipped with Marathon, to capture what it sounded like when Bungie first released the game.

Treellama asked for a curated list of maps from Starlight, so I picked a selection that should cover any player count and represents the full 10 years of maps in that pack.

I've made quite a few scripts for Alpha One over the years and I figured I'd write a guide to help others.

This guide contains all of my secrets for building awesome lua scripts. With it, you too will be able to write beautiful code.

Take it from me, I'm a xpert LUA engineer.

Notes for version zipped:

Part 1

2,620 downloads, 4 reviews, 0 screenshots, 3.2 rating

Replaces the old flamethrower projectile animation with prettier flame. Works best with bloom enabled.

Added 7 additional frames, so this uses a shapes patch to append some bitmaps and frames to the explosions collection.

For added fun, make some custom physics with a slower, wandering flamethrower burst. Also cut down the firing sequence on anything using a flamethrower to one tick.

One of the cooler features M1A1 took advantage of was animated textures. This plugin brings them back full circle to classic M1.

I made a few touch-ups, ranging from recoloring for accuracy to M1's palette, to smoothing out flickering pixels, to fixing some inconsistencies from the original game.

NOTES:

• I included the originals to any textures I made changes to, in case you prefer them or just want to see what I changed.

• The Durandal image on the puzzle switches is not used because (to my knowledge) it didn't appear in-game.

CREDITS:

• Original Textures - Bungie Software
• Animated Textures - The M1A1 Team

This appears to be a secret song for Marathon Trojan.

It can be found in a snd resource in the Trojan Manual. In Classic, after pasting the file to Scrapbook, then dragging it to the desktop, it was converted to .aiff format with SoundApp.

Thanks to GrimCleaver for teaching me this technique. :)

The song itself is 41 seconds long, and it ends rather abruptly. This is probably because it isn't the full song. It is still enjoyable.

Notes for version 1.0:

Initial release.

This Weland plugin exports a pair of .obj and .mtl files of the current level, including texture information. When paired with texture bitmaps exported from ShapeFusion, fully textured level models can be loaded and viewed in other programs.

This plugin will replace all of the standard Infinity weapon items, ammo boxes and powerups with proper 3D equivalents. A demo map featuring all of the new models has been included.

Notes for version 1.3:

v1.1:

• Fixed a script bug that would cause the SPNKR textures not to load on some setups.
• Some very minor Texture fixes.

v1.2:

• Exchanged the shield powerup models with more accurate ones created by Envy (thanks for providing them!)
• Some more minor Texture fixes.

v1.2.1:

• Even more minor texture fixes...

v1.3 (final release):

• Fixed model normals for better lighting (Thanks to Hopper)

These are plenty of physics I made using Hakvil 1.03 on my own time. These physics are made for Infinity, but if you try and use them on Durandal, it works too (I think). I took the time to make the mods more authentic, editing gun sounds as well.

Lazer Tag: Weapons mod.

Overpowered: Aliens are very strong/Weapons Mod.

Piercing explosives: Weapons mod.

Pretty Colors: Color mod (makes for a neat look?).

Quickdraw!: All weapons draw faster.

Super Punch: Fists have foward and backward recoil, 4000 damage w/ 400 random damage.

WTF?!?: Nuff said.

In the Player Physics folder: Feeling Doom?: Weapons have a side bob reminisant to how weapons in the Doom series moved.

Flying High: Typical flying physics (walking allows you to fly). Punches have foward and backward recoil to get you in flight.

Impervious: The player is invulnerable to any damage. Great for checking things on a newly built map?

Sonic Speed: You move twice as fast.

There are three? (I think) which will cause the game to crash...: - Overpowered - Piercing Explosives - WTF?!?

Enjoy!

Something I made long ago: desert-landscape replacements for the Lh'owon Day and Night textures.

Turn marathon into a turn based strategy game with this lua script.

When hosting, just pick one of the standard gametypes like normal and enable this script. It is not a netscript gametype.

This existed once a long time ago, but I must have loched and deleted it or something.

Tired of seeing the same 4 landscapes over and over when playing marathon 2? Why not give each level its own unique landscape?

Just put this into your Marathon 2 Plugins folder. You'll never know how you lived without it.

A very Work In Progress total conversion for any Marathon game, strives to create a World War 2 Russians VS Nazis combat experience.

As I have said before, this is incomplete, so please, I am a one man team as of now, and would like help, not harsh words.

Notes for version 0.1.1:

Apparently, there was some sort of recurring download error on the first release, this should fix it.

Lua gametype where the faster you're moving when killing someone, the more points you are awarded.

For example, if you kill someone while standing completely still, you get one point. If kill someone while running, you get more points. If you kill someone while running and falling, you get significantly more points. If you launch yourself with a rocket and kill someone while flying through the air, you get even more points.

lua script based on a quake mod named Rocket Arena where you get all weapons and ammo but no map items

The whole idea of this script is Surivive Longer = Less Ammo = Killing Gets Harder

Also Included: Rocket Arena where you only have rockets so that you can make someone pay

Note: This script has a side effect of being invulnerable to monster attacks

Notes for version v2:

Reworked self-damage conditions to give damage when the damage is environment-related

By request of Goran, Statistics.lua tracks the accuracy, damage dealt per minute, and total damage taken for each player.

Statistics.lua works as either a solo or a net script.

I played XBLA with just alien weapons on this map, and to my surprise, it was the most fun multiplayer game I've ever played. That's not saying much, since, you know. You all are... You know.

Notes for version ?:

Did you know that Pi backwards is Pie? 3.14- 4=P, 1=I, 3=E. Anyway, I actually recommend playing with Dead Players Drop Items, because the minimum count of guns here is half as much as the total count.

POWERS is a new kind of Marathon gameplay. Instead of having an arsenal of weapons, the player carries only what is inside his mind—his POWERS.

POWERS works under Aleph One with any Marathon scenario, and, in theory, any game type. However, the best way to use your new POWERS is with a friend in Co-op mode! New challenges await you in your favorite levels, and you might find that your POWERS even enhance levels you never appreciated before. Just use the POWERS Lua script when you play!

Notes for version 3.0.1:

Total overhaul. See the Readme.

3,557 downloads, 6 reviews, 1 screenshot, 4.3 rating

This is an attempt to mimic the gameplay of the old Joust arcade game. Players fly around maps and collide with each other to score kills. More detailed instructions await you in the README.

Notes for version 5.0:

This is the fifth attempt at a total Joust rewrite. Compatible with the latest version of Aleph One. Can be played on the EMFH, KOTH, and KTMWTB gametypes.
