Flippant Sol

To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Marathon, I present to you a fully dynamic soundtrack for Marathon 2: Durandal. Over two and a half hours of original music, inspired by your favorite Marathon tracks taken in bold new directions; all composed and placed for-scene in the game. Incorporating the original QuickTime Musical Architecture instruments into a faux-MIDI cocktail of delight, experience Marathon 2 like you've never done before!

Notes for version 1.0:

Future updates are being considered. Stay in touch on Discord @ .solartron

Marathon's original QuickTime 2.x instruments, brought to modern DAWs in sample form.

Suitable for playing back Marathon MIDI files or incorporating these instruments into a new Marathon soundtrack.

Just set the user folder path of your SFZ player to the Aiffdisk and enjoy!

Notes for version 1.0:

ampeg_release may need to be adjusted on some of the instruments to properly recreate.

2.1 accented hi-hat sounds weird but that may just be how QuickTime processes it in a mix.

Random spikes in MIDI playback may be caused by duplicate notes.

If more instruments are needed, please contact me on Discord: @Solar-Tron #6173

A similar scaled texture pack as "xBR Monsters for M1", but this is for M1's weapons and the algorithm is slightly different.

I would recommend leaving linear filtering on to smooth out the textures.

Notes for version 1.0:

Shouldn't be any incompatibilities with other plugins.

Weapon frames from Damage Incorporated modified to fit Marathon's physics and animations.

Notes for version 0.1:

-This project will grow over time to things bigger than just weapons. The biggest in scope would basically be a port of Damaged Incorporated to Aleph One (not happening in the slightest, btw). Expect updates.

-No HUD icons yet. Some weapons and items are redundant

-Just a shapes file for now, learning how to patch and plugin

Marathon 1 monster textures at 16x the original resolution using xBR scaling. Includes marine textures and every color palette.

Credits: - General Tacticus, who helped me index M1's original shapes file - Treellama, who helped me use Aorta to remove blue from the textures - Hawkynt, who created the program that could batch upscale 2,602 textures, and - Hyllian, who created the xBR 4x scaling algorithm

Notes for version 1.3:

• Added some missing textures
• Reverted back to original algorithm
• Quality-of-life improvements
