HEXEN II community work and discussion

[torgrim]

hi!

i tried inkubos tp. its cool.
but i have some probs, dont know if its a problem from fteqw.
the game doesnt wrote any savegame, is this because fteqw makes the game like a online-client game or why? doesnt saves the control changes, when exiting game. and the critical thing, it often doesnt load the next map, when changing the area. so it crashs back to the main menu and i must start from beginning.
does jsh2 works better than the fteqw?? couldnt try this atm cause i have only a volume internet connection. -.-

there are some other bugs or problems but they are not so important. like black textures of the necromancer/assasins 2. attack and the nails from necros 3. attack are invisible.

but one coolest thing is: it works good with win7 64bit.

greets torgrim


ps. sorry for my english

torgrim,

dont use the "last stable" version of fteqw, but the latest "nightly build" instead.
This one has killed almost all of your mentioned bugs.
It is much much newer than the "stable" one.

Kind Regards,
Seven

This is OFFTOPIC.

Does anybody here have by any chance some skills with Hexen 2 mapping in Quark?
I know there are better places to ask this, but this is the only community that Hexen 2 has.

[torgrim]

it seems that it didnt work for me. stable version works fine.
i downloaded now triptohell.info/moodles/unstable/win32/fteminglqw.exe is this the right thing?
the program runs but couldnt get it work with hexen2.
inkubo wrote on his hp with a batch file. but i dont know how to get it work. sorry im too stupid for this.

In EOC Team you know me "RaVeN".
I am know team, team is friendly.
I am beta tester (look at Game Credits)
Your Art work is awesome. And every one it see.
Many who just simply register and first post "i am ... mapper .. modeler" and people now in team.
Ok sorry, just think, remember.

Just tried that demo, it wasn't bad.

Plus, my brother used to work on that, codenniumred.

He made the first level (and many other unused levels), although he left before the mod was released.

@ torgrim

you downloaded the miniGL version.
You should wait for this file to appear: fteglqw.exe
I dont know why it isnt in the directory.
Maybe tomorrow it will be.

Today is 27th november and the file was compiled 23rd november.
I really dont know why the "fteglqw.exe" is missing...

Maybe Spike can say something about it.

PS: I forgot to mention this VERY important thing:
You must use a batch or a shortcut with this extentions:
- for regular Hexen 2: fteglqw.exe -hexen2
- for Mission Pack: fteglqw.exe -portals
Please try this with your miniGL Version. I think it should run fine.

Mathuzz,

I have mapping skills, but I don't use Quark.

If you or someone else creates a Hexen 2 gamepack for GTKRadiant, I might look into Hexen 2 mapping.

GtkRadiant - Trac

No hexen 2 gamepack, but Quake and darkplaces ones:

I have win7 64 too and i dont notice this problem

Wow! I knew at some point I had to run into a post from the future somewhere...

.
You got me Bloodbat

Yes, sometimes when I use my time-travel-machine, I forget to adjust the date.

So, to make it short:
The file "fteglqw.exe" will be compiled last. Thats why it wasnt there at that time.
Waiting some more hours and it is there as well.

Best Regards,
Seven

codenniumred is good person. =)
About mappers, maybe good idea to ask on raven-games.com and ravengames.com forums?
And Quark official forums

does jsh2 works better than the fteqw?? couldnt try this atm cause i have only a volume internet connection.

I like jsH2 and also like fteqw port. Each port have a reason.

While newest fteglqw.exe absent on FTE page, you can try jsH2 exe only version - size 0.3MB
Also needed fmod.dll file.

There no textures for shiny effects, no bloodscreens or crosshairs, but other must work.

[WhiteMagicRaven]

Maybe leileilol with his team that makes Haktoria can be helpful on hexen2 mapping.

[torgrim]

previously i had the stable fteqw version from july. i think thats was the prob, so i looking everyday for the unstable version.
jsh2 works fine and inkubos tp too.
necro magic missles looks great. saves works too. also i have a little crosshair in the game but couldnt change, but wayne. essential there is a crosshair.
only one think i didnt like, is that jsh2 has the normal view and fteqw is a little bit zoomed out. looks better.


thx so far, guys!!!

"only one think i didnt like, is that jsh2 has the normal view and fteqw is a little bit zoomed out. looks better."
