Dear ELV community and Hexen fans!

ELV project founders (Emmanuel, Leo and Veirdo, that’s why it’s called ELV) decided to separate Doomsday and GZDoom versions and team members entirely.



If you don’t like to read bunch of text, here is the short explanation:

The ELV project for Doomsday and GZDoom are separate projects because different people are working on them. One project is based on another, but it's a separate branch (like Risen3D – separated from Doomsday and now a different project)

“ELV Doomsday version” discord server (veirdo is here): https://discord.gg/MfnVx9neQg
“̶E̶L̶V̶ Hexen – Rebirth of Cronos for GZDoom” discord server: https://discord.gg/QS2gr2jhgv



And now – long explanation, why it’s happened and what exactly happened (for those who interested), so let’s start:


From now, Doomsday and GZDoom versions will have:
1) Separate names (“ELV” for Doomsday version, ”Hexen – Rebirth of Cronos” for GZDoom version)
2) Separate management (Emmanuel, Leo and Veirdo for Doomsday version, Emmanuel and DaXx for GZDoom version)
3) Separate discord servers: this one https://discord.gg/MfnVx9neQg for Doomsday version, and this one https://discord.gg/QS2gr2jhgv for GZDoom version
4) Separate twitter account and forum threads will be also created for GZDoom version (current threads/twitter will be used for Doomsday version only)

So, this mean, that starting from now, discussions about Doomsday version of ELV will be entirely stopped on this https://discord.gg/QS2gr2jhgv server, and moved to this https://discord.gg/MfnVx9neQg server, and even ELV logo will be removed from this https://discord.gg/QS2gr2jhgv server, because from now, GZDoom version and its servers are not related directly to ELV, and instead, will be considered as entirely different project with its own philosophy and management/development process

Both, veirdo and me, agreed to not be credited in GZDoom version, because our tasks are mainly related to Doomsday one

So, if you interested in Doomsday version, to communicate with Doomsday version devs, team, community, to be the first who knows any related news and so on, please consider to join this https://discord.gg/MfnVx9neQg server, because for now it is the only source of such kind of information.

And for those, who interested in GZDoom version, please join this https://discord.gg/QS2gr2jhgv server (if still not joined)

Veirdo is already joined Doomsday discord server and ready for answering your questions, and he will not join GZDoom server because lack of time and interest, so if you need to ask him questions in discord, consider to join this https://discord.gg/MfnVx9neQg server.


Here are the roles list for the created projects:


ELV Doomsday:

Emmanuel: project co-founder, project leader, project backer

theleo_ua: project co-founder, project support team member, decision approval peer and model/texture quality approval peer, community manager

Veirdo: project co-founder, 3D designer/modeller, vfx artist, coder, decision approval peer and model/texture quality approval peer

GrigoriyArx: 3D designer/modeller, texture artist


”Hexen – Rebirth of Cronos” for GZDoom:

Emmanuel: project co-founder, project leader, project backer

DaXx: 3D modeller, vfx artist, coder, level designer


I understand, that you confused with a lot of information and servers, and asking questions like “why so complicated, why we need separations”, but situation on the project forced us to make them, because it’s impossible (from our point of view) to develop those projects effectively without such separations

So, from now, I’m not related to GZDoom version anymore, so if you have questions about it, please ask them to Emmanuel or DaXx in respective threads/twitter (when they created, I’ll post links to them in current threads)


I’m sorry for this bunch of text, but hope it will give us a lot of benefits, and all of you will join communities of your interests!

Thank you for reading!

I'm very happy to see something like this

UPDATE: despite the model looks like very similar to ours https://www.artstation.com/artwork/NobJJ, they made their model from scratch (we asked them to make sure)

These look great!
The real test will be seeing them in game, as the lighting can make or break the whole thing.
I haven't touched doomsday or any 3d packs in over a decade, my last experience being kinda meh but I remain cautiously optimistic for this one.

Looking forward to it!

As I am newbie can I also join this discussion.

But yeah I am totally agree with you on that it look even more cool in the game verse.

As I am newbie can I also join this discussion.

of course, what questions do you have?
