WowTyrian2k

The classic 1995 shoot-'em-up Tyrian 2.1 (via OpenTyrian) running inside World of Warcraft. Type /tyrian to play.

Features

• The full game: all episodes, the shop, arcade mode, saved games, the Destruct mini-game and the jukebox, with the original music and sound effects.
• Flight path mode: when you take a flight, the addon offers a generated level that lasts until just before you land and ends with a boss fight. Flight times come from your own recorded flights, from Flight Timer Classic's data, or from a distance model.
• Generated levels: timed levels built from pieces of the original maps (forest and ocean themes), with arcade-style power-up drops that scale with the level's length.
• WoW integration: a settings-style window, an options page (Options > AddOns), a minimap button, a key binding, and auto-hide when you enter combat, get a ready check or queue pop, or receive a whisper.
• Cheats page: infinite shield, invincibility, unlimited credits, every shop item and the secret ships and weapons.

Commands

/tyrian (or /wt2k) shows or hides the game. /tyrian options opens the options. /tyrian timedlevel 5m plays a 5-minute generated level.

After installing or updating, restart the game client fully. A /reload doesn't load new texture files.
