NEFX loves you.

NEFX has been prolifically producing great Marathon/Aleph One inventions since 2017 (around 2.5 years after being founded) and uploading them to Simplici7y, in an increasing number of different upload pages that NEFX then frequently updates. This has occasionally lead to crowding of Simplici7y's front page with several different NEFX uploads, sometimes over a relatively short period. Understandably, some have objected to this as unfairly outcrowding and burying the wonderful contributions of our fellow travelers. We hear them. Therefore, to better serve the community as well as our Total Carnage Comrades, NEFX is now consolidating all additions and updates to its Marathon and Aleph One-related inventions on Simplici7y here on this one upload page, with a datemarked update timeline you can view below. Henceforth, all Marathon/Aleph One scenarios, campaigns, maps, mods, etc, and any updates to them, will be posted here. Of course, the webpage link connects to NEFX's Internet Archive homepage, where you can find all inventions by titled category. This includes:

NEFX Marathon Mods (i.e. physics files and Lua scripts for netplay)

NEFX Marathon Infinity Netmaps

NEFX Marathon Solomaps for others' scenarios, including the soundtracked 50-level pack for Aleph One: Wheels!

Tranquil Courtyard 1.01

Zott on 06/24/2025

Screenshot titled ""
  • Feed Ducks in a relaxing courtyard.
  • Bask in the pitter-patter of raindrops on the ground and HUD.
  • Gaze into the reflecting pool.
  • Meditate on the sounds of your footsteps.

Teaser Video: https://youtu.be/vQ6sbB7itnE?si=QkkvPqLQUeK_2GFI

Notes for version 1.01:

Fixed file loading on Linux and Mac OS. Changed "\" to "/" in mml folder paths.

262 downloads, 0 reviews, 4 screenshots

I created these maps between 2000 - 2003. They have been uploaded before in a similar format. This pack adds one large solo map. I'm not sure about all this new fangled stuff you got here so you might need to tweak them a bit to work.

Notes for version 2:

Not sure what happened to the original; if it's still floating around somewhere. This is the new version.

Stand-alone game

Notes for version .36:

Fixed gamma bug (nuclear) Bettered main menu text (LESS chance of cut-off, recommended setting is still 1024+)

3,605 downloads, 3 reviews, 0 screenshots, 3.7 rating

This is a map I made in college, ages ago. Heavily inspired by certain moments from the Rubicon solo campaign, but with its own unique twists.

This level is designed to be severely punishing, but absolutely doable with a sound strategy. There are ambushes. There are turret puzzles. There are times you'll have to run for your life.

One word of advice - you're not meant to fight every juggernaut. You can still try if you want to :)

Notes for version 1.0:

The first and so far only build.

Screenshot titled "Tunnels of Lh'owon"

A zip file version of the old 3D Examples from the early days of Aleph One. Includes a plugin containing 3D models of columns and lights, and two maps for trying it out. Files originally created by "binhqx", and still available in .sit form here

Screenshot titled "Strange Aeons"

An original fan soundtrack for Marathon Infinity, composed by Talashar. Featuring themes from Marathon, Halo, and M2SE. This won't just be a mashup of themes you know though, levels and character have been given their own themes to provide a new dimension to the game. Experience Infinity in a whole new way. Based on Treellama's M2SE plugin.

Preview my music here: https://talashar.bandcamp.com/album/strange-aeons

NOTE: MUSIC DOES NOT LOOP ENDLESSLY. This is intended. Many levels have added silence to allow the ambience some time on the stage. This silence is not a bug. Each level has been assigned specific tracks to emphasize narrative beats, emotional highlights, atmosphere, and overall vibe. If you would like looping versions of the songs, you can get them for free via the bandcamp link (click Buy Album then enter $0).

Recommended volume levels are 100% Master, 70% Music.

If you run into any issues with this plugin, I can be found in the Marathon Discord as @throkgaar.

Enjoy.

Notes for version High Quality Update:

Slight tweaks to timing and higher quality .ogg files with Metadata.

Screenshot titled "Rubicon AO Light 1"

Archive of the original Marathon Rubicon release for classic MacOS Aleph One, titled Rubicon AO Light. This is the Rubicon scenario as it was before Rubicon X.

The files on this archive were taken from the Macintosh Garden here https://macintoshgarden.org/games/marathon-rubicon and passed through MacBinary II+ to make them compatible with modern Aleph One for Windows and Linux too.

Also included is a set of maps bundled with the AO Light release, including some netmaps, the Rubicon Xariim scenario and, as far as I can tell, one ported map from the unreleased scenarios that eventually became Rubicon.

Notes for version 2:

Added the weapons and items MML scripts from Rubicon X to fix wrong names in the HUD.

Hosted on Mega because the Simplici7y uploader is failing to upload.

Marathon: Istoria is a single-player RPG scenario set in the Marathon universe and designed for the Aleph One engine. It pushes the engine to its limits by using advanced character progression, combat, and storytelling.

Customize your character by choosing from seven different player classes, each with their own unique active and passive abilities. Decide which conventional weapons you want to specialize in, and make use of a brand new arsenal of spells. Explore Istoria while discovering its secrets and how you fit in the world through a combination of terminals and communicating with the recently deceased. Istoria features an original soundtrack by Jon Irons.

Notes for version 1.1:
  • Redesigned boss fight.
  • New spells sounds to replace some of the weaker sounds from the previous version.
  • New spherical mapped landscapes are available.
  • Spells can now be accessed using a hotkey while holding down the aux trigger.
  • MOAHs can fit in smaller spaces and are a new color.
  • The game will automatically be saved upon completion, so you can easily reload to see your score.
  • Uses class activations instead of body dialogue in score calculation.
  • Black holes will no longer throw dead bodies around, which was especially dangerous for MOAHs. Terminals should display correctly in unusual aspect ratios.
  • Various bug fixes and typo corrections.
  • Overhead map filtering performance optimizations.
  • Option to replace included soundtrack files with high-quality Bandcamp versions.
  • Minor probability tweaks for "roaming" soundtrack event.
  • Survival levels now let you choose Random for your class, and the game will choose for you.

Departure 1.1

Sam on 06/16/2025

Screenshot titled "Phfor Boarding Pod Entry"

A scenario set between Marathon 2 and Marathon Infinity. Intended to enhance the story experience of playing Infinity by giving enough context to work out key plot points as they happen in game.

As Departure intended as a prequel to Infinity it's fairly short. Only 12 levels and some of them are fairly short.

Any feedback is welcome. Alternatively feel free to unpack the game file with Atque and make improvements.

Notes for version 1.1:

Version 1.1 - Fixed bug in smaller walkway area of Noctem where player could clip through wall and be trapped in centre
