Wrath of Cronos

[StevenC21]

Hey guys! I found out about this mod called Wrath of Cronos for Hexen, and it looks awesome! Just one issue: All the links to the download sites are either down, or lead to one of those sketchy link-filled sites; Either way, no mod. Does anyone know where I can find it, or can someone upload it/link to a confirmed download? Thanks.

That was a bit of a tough one! Looks like the original site went down and somebody else bought up the URL to put up a scam site. It took me a while, but I managed to find some good links. grandvoid.sickedwick.net/wads/wrathofcronosr1_8a2.pk3 should work just fine; if not, there's some links here: https://www.wad-archive.com/wad/8e4fff34f5c107711b02cd737690baaf

@Jellypox :-)

 

I hate to say this, but that wad didn't work, when I load it with hexen.wad, it throughs a massive amount of errors and doesn't even try to load after that.

[Enceladus]

Aww :( Unfortunately, I'm not one who can help you there. Hopefully, someone comes along who can help you get it working.

@Jellypox, its ok, I didn't need to play the wad anyway, it just would've been fun.

You have to load it with some old version of GZDoom. Or just play in the current version of Zandronum.

As far as I know the original author disappeared after the release of 1.8a2, but some people kept updating/fixing the mod and it's up to version 2.0c2

 

All the versions and patches can be found here: https://allfearthesentinel.net/zandronum/wads.php?name=wrathofcronos&order=date_desc. Basically:

 

-To use with Hexen

Last version: wrathofcronosr2c2.pk3
Extra monsters: wrathofcronosr2c_extramonsv12.pk3

 

-When using with a game other than Hexen: wrathofcronosnothexenpatch.pk3
+when using with Doom: wrathofcronosdoompatch2.pk3
+when using with Heretic: wrathofcronoshereticpatch2.pk3
+when using with Strife: wrathofcronosstrifepatch1_8a.pk3

 

-Optionally:
Monster randomizer for Doom: wrathofcronosdoomrandom2c2.pk3

 

Also as already said it requires an old version of GZDoom (I think it's 2.2).
