Max Payne1, Complete FixPack

[darkje]

I made this new FixPack containing my previous fixes and the new HighRes texture pack v1.3 by Gaiver74.

other fixes included are:
•Startup fix v1.01 by UCyborg
•Dx8to9 v1.9.1 wrapper by Crosire
•dgVoodoo v2.55.4 by Dege
•inDirectsound3d v0.17 by J.P. Ownby
•Ultimate Soundpatch v1.12 by me, Darkje
•Widescreenfix v01-01-2019 by ThirteenAG

All fixes are updated to their latest versions at 23-Jan-2019

Full uninstall option available (when installed on a clean version of the game), so you can experiment with the fixes to find the ones that fit your particular configuration best.

This is the first version of this fix, I tried all the options but there might still be issues i overlooked, so if you encounter any problems please report!

Ive installed this patch on my Windows 10 but this game is a proper mess. Glitches like mad even with this patch. Ran the game in VSYNC, Hardware and Software mode to no avail. Sad because it was a great game back in the day.

Sad to hear, if you feel like it, you could try the individual patches 1by1, maybe then you find out the one that breaks it for you... i can walk you through it if you contact me on steam.

Could you upload this somewhere else other than MEGA? That place has a download limit sadly...Google Drive for example would be great!

Like really, this is more than necessary, if you don't have a premium account, any user will have to wait with the tab open after the limit is exceeded to continue downloading the NEXT DAY.

Hi darkje,
Just installed the fix pack. The game is running good but there is no sound. Is this normal?

[darkje]

no, you should have sound ofcourse ;) i don't know what soundfix if any you are using, but try the other one if the 1st one won't work.

Windows 10 64 bit. Game before and after patch does nothing except a quick flash of a small box preparing to launch with a steam logo . The library doesn't show the game as running . Figured out the uninstaller and I;ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling several times . How can I get a screenshot to you I don't see any way to attach . Going to verify files again.

I would just use a website called Snagy. Take the screenshot and post the link here so others can help you.

Ok Darkje sorry for the delay I kinda had given up and hadn't checked back lately. Uninstalled fixpack. Installed parts of patch 1 at a time first part hi res textures for steam -game started with intro sound and graphics . No sound during cutscene until you can do actual gameplay then there is both . installed direct sound3d wrapper - no change . I then installed ultimate sound patch - no change . Wide screen fix was successful . I'm going to go back and try again this time skipping directsound 3d and tryind only the ultimate soundpatch . Sound like were a lot closer . I retried as previously described no effect . What I did neglect to state is that when I ran the ultimate soundpatch and ran the conversion the level one debug says that it found MaxPayne.exe and will attempt launch but target files for game conversion missing :x_data.ras , x_music.ras , x_(language).ras . It then continued and said some files for the standard game were missing: movies\intro.mpg , grphmfc.dll , mfc42.dll , msvcirt.dll , msvcrt.dll , rlmfc.dll , sndmfc.dll , x_data.ras , x_language.ras , x_level1.ras , x_level2.ras , x_level3.ras , x_music.ras . It continues and states Language file missing , No mods found This looks bad possible problems detected

This indicates you must have installed the patch in the wrong directory. Please browse to your game directory, and check if you didn't install in a 2nd 'max payne' subdirectory. like '... steam\steamapps\common\max payne\max payne' if that is the case, you installed it one directory too deep, and you should have picked '... steam\steamapps\common\' as target on the installation.

TA DAAAAAA !!!! Fantastic everything works . Now what do I do to make Max Payne 2 work because that will still not launch at all . Thanx again I've missed this game for so long .
