Back by popular demand... Oh yes I know you will be delighted to learn, Alive Mod version 17.0 beta was released to beta testers on 12 September 2008. After the beta testing period is over (approximately 2 weeks) and bug fixing has concluded, The Alive Mod version 18.0 (stable) will be released to the public.

It's been 4 long years since MikeMouse made available version 16.0 of his undying classic; “Alive Mod for Mafia.” Well surprise surprise here we are again, it’s now approaching 2009 and things are about to get a whole lot better. MikeMouse's Alive Mod is about to make another mighty SPLASH on the Mafia scene...

Due to countless requests, Mike's added a new Mission, a new SuperWeapon, and "modified" (hint hint) many of the previous functions, which dramatically changes present game play strategies, and improves the action. To be honest I'm absolutely certain I too am being kept in the dark about things. Which I appreciate tremendously.

Until these web pages are properly updated (and they are rather embarrassingly behind the times) you can find all my most recent Alive mod shares PLUS the latest news from MikeMouse himself at webgamer.ru's English forum here

For genuine Mafioso's (all you real Mafia fans out there) MikeMouse's Alive Mod is a compulsory addition. It should've been Freeride Extreme! No disrespect intended Illusion Softworks. And I know there'll be people who disagree with my confident proclamation, but those people either haven't played the Alive Mod yet, or perhaps they have a reason to say those things that isn't related to the quality of game play this mod has on offer? In any case the Alive Mod sparkles and shines with WOW Factor! I'm still playing it years after its release because even after all this time it's a real challenge and manages to always surprise me.

Thus it pleases me greatly to announce such truly excellent news... MikeMouse has produced a brand new website for his ultra fantastic Alive Mod. The URL for the new official Alive Mod homepage is www.webgamer.ru

By default it's worded in Russian, however for those of us who speak English there's a link in the top right corner that will switch between those two languages. Please note that in order to use this function you'll have to have cookies enabled in your web browser.

There are plenty of things to choose from on a whole range of cool topics; secrets, funnies, modding, stories, downloads etc. etc. an abundance of super duper goodies primarily relating to the Alive mod, but not limited to it alone, because you'll also find lots of exclusive information relating to Mafia as well!

The Russian forum is "alive and kicking" so I urge all you English Alive mod aficionados to register and start sharing your experiences with the rest of us ASAP! C'mon get involved.

Over the years I've accumulated lots of very unique screenshots that have never been seen before by anyone. I've already uploaded a stack of them and Mike will be adding them soon. If you wanna' see what the Alive Mod is capable of, then logon and prepare to be amazed.

For true Mafia, Alive Mod fans, www.webgamer.ru is the essential bookmark.

These web pages were created by me SOULTAKER for the purpose of introducing you to my favourite mafia mod, the ALIVE mod! Created by MikeMouse (a extremely talented programmer from Russia) is without a doubt the most imaginative, enjoyable and exciting mafia add-on that I have ever had the privilege of playing...

There have been many good Mafia mods made and many promising ones are currently in production but I'm sure that after you play the Alive mod you'll agree that it is the only one of its kind.

The Alive mod is filled with new wonderful and exciting things to do in a game of Freeride City - Day, Countryside - Day, City - Night and Countryside - Night. The reason it is called the 'Alive' mod is because it's constantly changing its behaviour and players cannot predict what will happen next? For example: How will you defeat your many cunning enemies this time? Where is the Lost Heaven terrorist hiding? How many charges do the super weapons have? How much money will you make using them? Where will the Lost Heaven gangs attack from this time? When will the Flying Car stop flying? What new unexplored areas will you find using the Jumping Car function? Can you win the Dirty Street Race? The intention of this is to keep players entertained so that they do not get bored in a hurry and believe me they won't.

All the new things that have been added to the mod were not present in the original game. This means that all MikeMouse's scripts are unique. He did not edit Illusion Softworks developers’ scripts, instead he wrote his own code to create new things.
