MAX PAYNE 2: Matrix Edition (Lite)

#############################################

ZIP FILE CONTENTS:

#- Matrix Edition Lite v1.1.mp2m
#- Readme.txt (this file).

#############################################

This is lighter version of my Matrix Edition v1.1 modification for MP2. The only difference between this mod and Matrix Edition is that this version does not contain any modified music and uses the original MP2 music soundtracks. I developed this mod to make it easier to download for those on dial-up like me. Enjoy :-).

Copy the '.mp2m' file into the same directory as the Max Payne 2 exe file. Start Max Payne 2 and select 'Matrix Edition Lite v1.1' from the 'Choose customized game' pull-down menu.
