JA2 1.13: Max Payne

Thanks to Spinasso and my small contributions, we can now use Max Payne as yet another merc. He works just like my other mercs, but as that would fit the third game, can be found in the most run-down bar of Arulco (perhaps he wants to take care of yet another mob?).

I admit the NPC recruitment phase isn't the best (we were severely limited in sound and portrait choices), but he works just fine. A grumpy, alcoholic psycho that narrates some of his lines fits just in though^^

You might also notice that the Ryder twins have new faces, because edmortimer and townltu got busy and made portraits. 100% more asians, woohoo!

There was something strange before me. The letters came at me in pixelated form. "You are in Jagged Alliance 2, Max!" The truth was a burning green crack in my brain. A 22 year old user interface, isometric layout, and footsteps louder than thundercracks- I was on Alruco. Funny as hell. But it was the most horrible thing I could think of.

i know this is an old video, but the old Max Payne would've been awesome with his constant monologues.

Nice work friend ! I think that next could Be Caleb from blood 1 3d or even Duke or Lo Wang from shadow warrior .

I am surprised that no one made a mod that would allow players to use and move tank.

Can someone tell me how to make a npc recruitable? And how can i add more mercs like you did?

Nice, but too expensive, cant afford a merc for 2.5k on insane in early and mid game,
also salary for lvl 4 merc with good but not excellent stats does not appear to fit into the others range,
so players short on money and/or not willing to pay more for the fun of having new voice/PC will unlikely hire the character.
Btw even more valid for a 3.7k squadleader with a major flaw,
her personal attitude forbids to work with one of the if not the deadliest person in game.

Nice work but I think his skills are very low :) especially his marksmanship, wisdom and agility should be above 90 :)
