Turns out its way more possible than I thought, so now I've layed out a foundation for Hexen II stuff with a Necromancer Test.

Re: HXDD: A Heretic and Hexen Wad Merger
Small preview of whats coming up with the Hexen 2 addition as it progresses into a playable state.
HXDD is now sitting in a weird spot between a gameplay mod and a simple wad merger.
- Currently have all Hexen 2 classes added with Weapons still in heavy WIP.
- Hexen 2 Progression system is fully functional and is controllable by an option.
- Hexen style armor is now an option.

Re: HXDD: A Heretic and Hexen Wad Merger
Been awhile since I've last gave an update.
Wad Assembler is being updated with additional support for Hexen II files and assets.
Scripting 5 classes with 4 weapons each with 2 firing modes and unique interactions depending on powered state has been quite a lot of work but is still pretty far along.
Leveling system is in and is fully functional.
Playstyle system is in but does not exist in UI.
Current development states of each of the classes are as follows:
HXDD has become less of a "Creation, Conversion, and Editing" project and much closer to a TC / Gameplay Mod project now.

Re: HXDD: A Heretic and Hexen Wad Merger
So... I really like playing Hexen with XRPG. And I like Doom with Wadsmoosh + Episodic-EX + DoomRPG. Basically, I really like the idea of playing through Heretic + Hexen with a single character that gains stats and advances the whole way, which this would be a key part of, along with XRPG, and theoretically Episodic-EX (which works on Heretic, but I'm not sure how it'd work with this).
Of course the big flaw would be any conflicts between the gameplay modifications you've made and the ones XRPG makes.
Would parameters of some sort make sense? Like "generate the maps, but include just the vanilla Hexen player classes, unmodified." Or is that just a nonsense idea?
It kinda ties into the whole "become a TC" aspect of this - parameters could be added for Hexen Maps in Heretic (preserving the vanilla class, for maximum compatibility with gameplay mods), Heretic Maps in Hexen (similar), Combine both, and "So, we put some more Hexen in your Hexen." Hexen 2 content.

I've done that. The same error persists, it can't detect the .wads for some reason.DarkkOne wrote:Try changing folders to the folder the .jar is in first, rather than running it from another folder.

Re: HXDD: A Heretic and Hexen Wad Merger
Its been awhile, last year was kind of a mess for me after getting sick and dealing with a fair amount of brain fog. Which slowed me down enough for my side projects to linger.
Anywho: I pushed a massive update to the project's github tonight, no public build just yet.
As for files they should be in a folder named wads like such.

I've made some recent changes which removes the hard coded stats and hx2 leveling system from playerpawns. Its now more flexible and hopefully should conflict less with other mods. There are also recently added params which let you force set game mode depending on the map set your loading. If the mod does not auto-detect the map set correctly - and allowing for further end user configuration.DarkkOne wrote: ↑Thu Jun 30, 2022 8:42 pm So... I really like playing Hexen with XRPG.
