Clusterone Posted August 31, 2010 What are some good Hexen based wads? (links please :P ) I have been playing Hexen a lot lately and it's one of my favorites out of them all :D but I only see heretic mods, why is that? And p.s. can you jump in hexen? (I use Zdoom so there's a jump button but was it there in the original game?) thanks :D 0 Share this post Link to post
fullmetalvaran33 Posted August 31, 2010 Well, I can't help you on the "jumping" question because I have not played Hexen in any form (boo me). Here are a couple of Hexen-based WADs I've stumbled across that have gotten above average to very good reviews: Hexen: Scourge of Viscerus The Dark Castle The Dark Portal The LychGate Carnage Galore III: Fury of Vuradi Riverwood Village Starship These were really some of the best reviewed ones. There aren't very many Hexen WADs out there, and a good amount don't have good reviews at all at /idgames. I hope this helps :) Oh, and about why there aren't many Hexen WADs. I just remembered a thread from a short while back about 32in24 maps...I'm going to quote one of the members who posted in it because he/she pretty much summed up the answer to your question in a sentence:printz said: Because it's more popular than Hexen and Strife, because it's easier to map in Heretic than in Hexen or Strife too. 0 Share this post Link to post

There are a few Hexen projects specifically for ZDoom that have been released over the years. Serpent Resurrection, The Nadir were released quite recently. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ichor Posted August 31, 2010 For a long time, I didn't know you could jump in Hexen (I also didn't know about that helmet back then). I managed to get to the crushing icy pillars in map 2, when that one step was just a bit too high to climb over. I even tried using one of those pillars to get me over, but that didn't work so well. 0 Share this post Link to post

Serpent hasn't been released officially yet (beta's don't count), almost there though :p 0 Share this post Link to post

Philnemba Posted September 1, 2010 Ressurection of Chaos and Hub of Pain are the most played and also my favorite Hexen wads. 0 Share this post Link to post
