Fair enough! Time to take it for a spin, then!Dinosaur_Nerd wrote:Mourning Glory & Golden Emperor: NoRegios wrote:Any plans to add the items from the add-on? The Mourning Glory, the Golden Emperor and the Deadmaker Mask?

Hey! Good to see you again. Hope you have fun, and let me know what you think of it.Valherran wrote:Awesome! Been itching to play Hexen, might do it with this MOD!
That's quite the complement, thanks much!affandede wrote:Twenty years from now on, video games and mods will be considered as mods and this will be the Da Vinci of this shit.
There is a (probably little known) "teleport to start" feature in base Guncaster and probably this mod too, by that virtue. There is a keybind for it by that name in the menu, or you can use "pukename StartTeleport" in console. Or, if you don't prefer to wait for the teleport spinup, you can do "give artiteleport; use artiteleport" for the same effect.Valherran wrote:6.

you should totally try taunting korax (the offend taunt)Valherran wrote:The final boss fight was pretty neat, also hilarious that Korax is immune to Old Dreadful (you should probably do that for all bosses.)
Fixed this in 3.0.1Valherran wrote: 1. The lightning storm sounds were on a constant repeat in some areas, which at certain volumes can overwhelm the game's music. There was also this weird thwack sound I kept hearing as well which I assume is supposed to be a lightning strike? I never see it, only hear it. Kind of annoying to hear cus I think something is trying to attack me, but did my best to tune it out.
Yep... that's a problem I'll fix it. I also think I need to just manually place the black chests with my eventhandler and map enhancement system. It seems like in multiplayer they get jacked up and there aren't enough, and in single player there are wayyyy too many.Valherran wrote: 2. The black chests I think are bugged. After I had gotten the power suit from them, it kept giving me Gladius Barrels non-stop and no other chests would appear after that. This resulted in me beating the game with very minimal equipment.
I didn't have this problem.Valherran wrote: 3. Mana consumption became a problem at the later half of the game when fighting the tougher enemies in mass quantity. If it weren't for the power suit and its high melee damage output, I would be mana-starved throughout Hub 4 and 5.
This is intentional, because every time I do a playthrough I kept ending up with so much cash that I'd just max out berserk/gunzerk over and over again, or just keep refreshing deadmaker. I don't really want the player to be able to buy EVERYTHING in the shop because that would eliminate the whole rogue-like aspect of random drops from chests/bosses/enemies/artefacts/etc... It would also make the player so brokenly overpowered that around map 20 that you just buy things to breeze through the last levels without having to even try.Valherran wrote: 4. Money gains felt kinda stingy through the game, it isn't possible to buy everything, let alone half the inventory in the game without cheesing tele-traps.
Agreed.Valherran wrote: 5. The potion drops seemed a little excessive since the discs were turned into Rejuvenation Potions. It would be great if there was like a 5, 10, 15, 20 percent chance that a different item will appear in place of Quartz Flask and Disc spawns.
This trick still works in my version, I've tweaked it a little bit to be more difficult to abuse, but it does still work. (@Zhs2 I'm sure you can guess who was abusing it that made me feel the need to adjust it.)Valherran wrote: 6.

I'd probably agree with you here as well.Valherran wrote: 7. The Dark Bishops were extremely annoying to deal with, they need to have their speed toned down a bit. It makes sense for the Afrits to do that, but these guys are a little too tanky to be moving this fast making it a very un-fun chore to get rid of them.
hm... I'm worried they'll be too annoying, but I might toy with their speed a littleValherran wrote: 8. The serpents could use a small increase in movement speed. Them being so sluggish made them way too easy to dispatch.
I'll look into it.Valherran wrote: 9. Centaur ground slam causes in-fighting and they don't deal any damage to each other. There were some rare moments when I have seen Ettins, Serpents, and Bishops go at each other, but I have no idea what can cause that to happen.
I may try to make the hitbox bigger, it's likely that they are blocking matriarch as well but it is explosive so it does damage anyway, and Augur/dreadful are rippers.Valherran wrote: 10. On the subject of Centaurs, I found it weird that they can't block any attacks except from the Ironblast. For some reason they are immune to it when they are blocking.
This I think is a problem inherent to hexen itself ( as seen here under "BUGS"), I used a ZScript trick to force the exit area to open so that the player wouldn't be stuck. I'll apply the same trick to the wizard areas as well.Valherran wrote: 11. The throne room behind the axe door is bugged and won't open all of the doors after defeating the serpents. I had to use noclip to kill the remaining enemies and then access the portal.
I'll check into this, but I think that's intentional for Wizard eyes to spawn there, they replace torches I think.Valherran wrote: 12. Wherever you had spheres spawn, every sphere found was a Wizard's Eye (which is useless.)

I am totally gonna do it next run, thanks for the tip. hehyou should totally try taunting korax (the offend taunt)
It may have been the Bishops that drained me when trying to hit them (cus there are so fkin many), when the next version is out I will try again and see how my consumption goes.I didn't have this problem.
When I did multiplayer with my bud who always whines about being totally out of ammo, hexen was actually the first time he was feeling like he didn't have ammo problems at all
(with the exception of heretic augur overload).
Oh, if that's intentional then nevermind, though a little bit of increase couldn't hurt for the 1st half of the game though.This is intentional, because every time I do a playthrough I kept ending up with so much cash that I'd just max out berserk/gunzerk over and over again, or just keep refreshing deadmaker.

This is the hard part of making the gameplay progression based. People complain about this mod saying "Oh, it's just nerfed guncaster" but in the end... the GCV Powersuit and Draughsuit are actually stronger than the official versions in the realm of damage, and probably on-par with their speed. So I've gotta try to hold back somewhere.

Oof, yeah, those guys were pretty broken with that Icy flak rocket they spam. They can burst you down at full HP/Armor within 3 seconds, even more so on the hardest setting which made every enemy with a projectile a sentry turret with unlimited ammo. My advice to you, save before entering any portal in the 1st hub if you don't know where you will find them, otherwise save before encountering them. They aren't so bad in this MOD, so no need to panic or save-cheese.Lots of folks (myself included) got really frustrated with the stupid original hexen Wendigos (Ice Guys) in the area you're talking about and many might quit and not wanna play again.
I've re-made the monster and I feel like he's much less of a jerk now
So if you decide to give it a go, I hope you have fun!
