Betty Bobs 1.1 will replace both the sprites and sounds for Bob in your

The Burning of Eden 2 is an 18 level scenario for Marathon 1 that has had
many hundreds of hours of youthful enthusiasm devoted to it.
BOE-2 is one of the few large scenarios to be formed for the original
Marathon (Marathon 1) engine. The Burning of Eden has everything you might
ask for. Whether you like realism, carnage, or just aesthetics, we have it
for you. Included is original artwork, an elaborate plotline, three-way
fights, puzzles, gloomy basements, and more!
Version 2 should replace the original Burning of Eden in the archives.
Version 2 adds 11 new network levels, adds many enhancements requested by
users such as more ammo, more secrets, etc., and corrects a variety of
bugs.
(Note: to use this scenario you must have the commercial game Marathon 1
published by Bungie.)

Marathon Infinity "Done Right" Physics Model
This is not one of those cheapass wave-motion-cannon physics models
that make the game no fun. This doesn't really change gameplay to the
harder or easier (well, some weapons do have a little bit more bite,
but not that much). It is highly reccomended both for solo and net
play, and while I'm a keyboarder, I'm sure the mousers will like the
three-round-burst mode and the heavy assault weapon.

Subject: Gravis GamePad Controls for Marathon
I just bought the Gravis GamePad specifically to play Marathon.
Well, needless to say I was a little disappointed. First off, Gravis
doesn't incorporate a Marathon setting in their package - but I shouldn't
complain, Marathon officially was released quite recently.
However, I spent 30 minutes just trying to configure the Gravis GamePad for
this excellent adventure.
The problem is that the keyboard works very well with Marathon. If you're
running, you can turn corners and keep running. Any default-type
configuration for the GamePad doesn't work very well because the cursor pad
works single-mode. This means you can move forward, OR you can turn. You
can't move forward AND turn at the same time.
The crazy thing is that the buttons permit multiple keystrokes, but the
cursor pad doesn't.
Eventually I figured it out. To be able to run and perform other functions
at the same time, the move-forward command must be configured from a
button, not a cursor control. All other movements are okay, though backing
up and turning at the same time doesn't work in this configuration. I
decided it was more important to use the remaining buttons for other
functions. Besides, I didn't back up and turn often anyway.
So here it is.
Others may have found better configurations, and maybe I'm just not reading
the Gravis docs correctly, but this is my Gravis GamePad configuration
specifically for Marathon.
Included in this StuffIt archive is a PICT file that outlines all the
buttons and commands available via the GamePad.
Thank-you's, complaints, and "you idiot, you didn't need to do all this
work"-type messages should be sent to: wonk@magic.ca

For everybody who's tired of the existing network levels of Mararhon here's

and gives it a very different feel without ruining the excellent settings
of that particular level.
The map was modified using Mia 0.6 by Dan Walkowski and you need a virgin

from Bungie to use the patch.
Many thanks to Bungie, Dan Walkowski, AD Instruments and Metrowerks.

Enclosed you will find the Marathon Map Utilities (parts 1 & 2). These
utilities will aid you in the use of Marathon and third-party maps.
Enclosed you will also find a folder with copies which you can add the
path of YOUR Marathon folder so that the launching is easier. See
disclaimer below about distributing modified copies.
NOTE: The enclosed programs REQUIRE AppleScript 1.1 or higher AND the
Finder Scripting Extension (if you have System PRO or 7.5.x or higher,
your fine! :-) ).
Marathon Map Util (1):
When you want to open a third-party map with Marathon,
but you don't want the hassle of renaming the Marathon Map file and
moving the third-party map into the same folder as Marathon, you use this
program. Simply drag a COPY of the third-party map on top of the
Marathon Map Util (1) program (which REQUIRES AppleScript and the Finder
Scripting Extension) and you will be prompted for the path of the
Marathon Folder. Simply locate the folder, click the button at the
bottom of the box, and your map will be opened using Marathon.
Marathon Map Util (2):
When you want to return Marathon to its original mode in
regards to the use of maps, use this utility. Simply drag the
third-party map file which is located in your Marathon Folder on top of
the Marathon Map Util (2) program (which REQUIRES AppleScript and the
Finder Scripting Extension) and you will be prompted for the path of the
Marathon Folder. Simply locate the folder, click the button at the
bottom of the box, and your map will be deleted, and your original
Maration map file will be renamed.

Subject: Marathon New Sounds Patch
This is a patch I made for the Marathon Demo. It patches the "Sounds" file and
gives you some new sounds, as well as some altered ones. The new sounds
include the SSM Rocket Launcher fire, the SSM Rocket explosion, the alien growl
sounds, and the Alien Weapon fire. The altered sounds include the Assault
Rifle fire, the Grenade Launcher explosion, and the handgun fire. I felt the
sounds Bungie provided were a bit weak when it came to powerful weapons, and
the aliens didn't sound mean enough, so this patch is what I came up with.
This is not connected with Bungie in any way, so if it doesn't work, you can
blame me, not them. Thanks.

Subject: Marathon Prefs Delete; a utilty for the game
Marathon is a great game! Unfortunately, its preferences can become corrupt
so easily! This apparently has been around for quite awhile. I remember
reading about people with the illegal beta copy that they were complaining
about preferences being corrupt. This was also an issue when the demo was
released, and now, finally, the released version itself. What a pain it is to
have to dig through the Preference Folder (even with PopUpFolder!) to delete
the unwanted prefs. Me and a friend came up with a small hack that does
nothing but delete the preferences to Marathon, nothing more. Just
Double-Click on the apps, and WHAM!, your corrupted preferences are gone!
Now all you have to do is launch Marathon and re-enter in your serial
number. HINT: Keep a folder handy that has been named the actual serial
number, and you can do a "Copy" before you launch Marathon, and "Paste" in
the serial number upon request. If you find this utility handy, just drop me
email at Heathen@aol.com to let me know if it is some value to you.
Otherwise, it is FREEWARE. I take no responsibility for lost data caused

the ability to let the user select only certain sounds to be installed,
play the sounds before they get installed, and even play the original sound

This is a marathon map that is basically Waldo World Arena and some whacky
floating in space polygons and funked up teleporters that make the level a
whole lot more interesting.

Subject: Mia 1.0b19
Well, folks, here it is, finally.
This is the last version (barring a huge bug) of Mia to be released for
Marathon 1. There is a bunch of changes to the palettes and stuff, the
most important being the addition of POPUP MENUS FOR TEXTURES, which I'm
sure you will all be happy to see.
I have stopped working on this version so that I can get a version up and
running with Marathon 2 maps. I already have it mostly working, I hope to
have it ready soon.
I will enclose the archive with the next letter, so that this one will get
through to everybody.
Thanks,

Do you use the Phile Juggler? And you like it?
Do you use Aaron? And you like it too? But when you use aaron the phile
juggler looks terrible: this patch changes the color resources of the
phile juggler to grey for aaron.
Try it!

Subject: The Elements of Map-Making Style
The foreword to the guide best states what it is:
Soon after playing Marathon I became interested in designing maps for it.
I picked up a copy of Pfhorte and M.I.A. There were guides written that
explained how to make polygons, platforms, lights, etc., but nothing about
what makes a map fun. The situation is analogous to trying to make a cake
knowing the ingredients, but not the quantities. After years of studying
others' maps and designing my own, I have arrived at guidelines for
map-making.
What makes a map "good" or "fun?" Opinions vary, but there are certain
constants involved such as physics, monsters, textures, etc., when
designing maps. Taking these into account while following the guidelines
will tend to increase the fun factor of your maps. However, the guidelines
are not formulas in which you enter values for X and Y and always equal
good map. No, these are guidelines to follow or not to follow, if they do
not coincide with what you are trying to accomplish with a particular map.
Understand the guidelines and ignore them if you need to, but not out of
ignorance.
While this piece is focused on Marathon map-making, nearly all of it is
applicable to other games in the genre like Dark Forces, Doom, Quake, Duke
Nukem 3d, et al.
This file may be included on the Info-Mac CD -- all others, please contact
me first.

Subject: REAL Bob Patch 1.0d
What is the REAL Bob Patch?
This is a patch created in Anvil for Marathon 2 / Marathon . The BOBs
(not the VacoBOBs) will change to a real person (made with the
QuickCam). Sorry, but I haven´t realized the different color tables. So
you can´t see if it the BOB is green or blue. I will fix it. Okay?
How I can install it?
You need Anvil (enclosed in Marathon CD) to install it. Open a fresh
copy of your Shapes file with Anvil and then select "Import >From Patch
File...". Then save the file. Thats all!
What is Pfhors House . Demo Map?
A simple map for Marathon only. It demonstrate the new BOBs. Check it
out!
