Right now I am working on little HeXen weapon mod. Originaly it was intended as medieval weapon mod for playing medieval DooM maps but right now its more like resource wad. It will contain uprgraded Fighter Class with 6 weapons. Everything remade purely with DECORATE, so no hardcoded stuff. I hope it will become something as template for making new HeXen classes.
DECORATE for all weapons is done, right now I am adding sounds and making the animation smoother, possibly as close to original as possible. Gauntlets have normal or brawl mode. Axe, Hammer and Quietus can switch between their enchanted and normal states, I made new graphics for Axe and Hammer enchanted forms. Quietus can shot out whole burst of projectiles or single one (depending on how long you will hold fire). I also added two new weapons. Dragon Claw from Heretic replaces green mana weapon. Hammer now uses new red mana. And Blunderbuss from Wolfen will be Fighter specific weapon. Ammo for Blunderbuss will be dropped by Slaughtaurs noone else. New weapons will replace Quietus fregments. Quietus will be one piece weapon which will replace last Quietus piece, but in custom maps there will be aslo fragments availible. I will also add pickups for DooM and Heretic, but it will be ballanced for Hexen.
Thanks LWM for Blunderbuss sprites and Korax Heritage team for Red mana and Fighters Dragon Claw sprites.

By the way, I might use some help with sounds, so any volunteers?

Awesome as always, Neoworm. :D You're doing exactly what I wanted to do with my Hexen mod, so I hope everything works out for you.

nice work on the hexen weapons, looks much better than the original.
-Gauntlets - When noone is near it will make single strong punch, when monster is near it punches realy fast with both hands.
-Axe - Blue mana weapon, when turned on its very easy to reflect projectiles with it (even normal axe can reflect projectiles, but its very hard (only 2 tics)).
-Dragon Claw - green mana hitscan weapon, behaves almost exactly as Heretic version, maybe its too strong.
-Blunderbuss - its basicaly the super shotgun, massive damage but very rare ammo.
-Hammer - red mana weapon, its grenade like weapon now, hammer falls to the ground but does massive damage, also it can hurt centaurs with shield up.
-Quietus - it uses green and blue mana, can shot one or five projectiles
What I need to do
-find better sound for Axe idle state
-find some sounds for switching hammer on and off
-find some sounds for hammer appearing animation
-find some sounds for switching Quietus on and off
-smoothen animation of all weapons
-better graphics for gunpowder ammo
Maybe
-adding powered up versions of weapons
