A Question about a wierd version of the Hexen CD I just bought

Recommended Posts

hey guys, I only posted twice in the past due to me being really busy. Thats going to change. anyways, I wanted you guys opinion on something. I bought Hexen from CDAccess.com, and when I recieved it, there was no box, just a jewel case. I didn't really mind that much, but when I opened it up the CD said Hexen for Windows 95. I popped it in and there was no CD music like on the regular Hexen CD, but sure enough there was a W95 exe that worked like a charm. On the back there was a sticker that said Made In Canada. am I missing something? if anyone can offer some answers, I'd really appreciate it.

Edit: I know the pictures are crap, but I included one of the back of the CD case and the CD.

I think as long as the CD's play surface is "silver" and the label doesn't peel of then it ought to be legit.

Its legit. Ultimate Doom and Doom 2 were packaged with hexen for 95. The music is probably the same factor as DOOM95. I can't get the music to work on windows. I suggest taking the wad and using legacy or jdoom. Fix yah right up bud.

PageofDoom has a image of the original box for that.

Sorry but what the hell are you talking about? He said it didn't have CD Audio on it (or just couldn't get it to play, perhaps) The internal midis most likely still work and he shouldn't need a port for that...

BiteToBreakSkin: Are you sure there is no CD Audio? Stick it in a normal CD player (e.g. not your computer) and see if you can get anything to play.

Well, when I look at my E Drive, it says only 40 megs of the CD are used, and 0 Megs are left, so I just assume there arent any CD tracks. besides, if they're were, they'd play in WMP.

EDIT: Alright, I tried it in WMP, and the CD tracks showed up! man am I a tard. Sorry guys, my fault. I am glad it's a legit copy though, i really didn't wanna own an illegitimate copy of hexen, much less any of the doom games.
