[REL] Manhsdmh deathmatch pack for Hexen

#1

Post by Manhs » Tue Nov 10, 2015 3:11 pm

Hello there!

I needed to make some maps for the "Hexen Deathmatch Arena" mod:
https://zandronum.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=2528, i like this mod of Hexen but there is 7 maps in the file of the pk3 of the mod (slot 01,02,03,04,05,06,13), it's not a lot, i wanted host this mod in the festival where i have a retrogaming stand like this one: https://youtu.be/6tkB1Ee6c7s
(i use only retro/classic fps for my stand like doom, heretic, duke nukem 3D, Blood and others :) , my favorites!)

but you need a lot of maps for the fun of the game in a festival. ^^

I made those maps with doombuilder (v1 i think), Slade and with the "zdoom with hexen" format.

You need the mod to play it: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/509 ... xDT1.4.pk3
(no more)

Here is my pack of 6 maps (slot 08,09,10,11,12,21):
//

Basically, it's made for mouselook+Jump, don't activate the autoaim (use sv_noautoaim true)

it's my first maps, i'm a beginner.....i hope it's decent for you :s ...it's hard but wanted try, mapping is really interesting! :)
Those maps are made for 2-6 players, not a lot because in the stands, there is usually 3 players for Hexen (and 3 players for an other fps), i add sometimes some bots but not more than 2. I will try to make more maps...maybe.

I tried some maps of the list of DM maps of "doomworld /ID games", but a lot of maps are too big...

I will host it with BE i think....not sure if people like the idea of the mod but i like how it makes a hexen deathmatch pretty classic and fast like a doom or heretic deathmatch!

I made a last second post and i will edit only this one if i continue.

I made the maps for the original Hexen DM mod, not for the special deathmatch arena.
I think it's better to show the original dm for Hexen in the videogames/manga festivals where i have a stand for it.
People liked a lot the special DM Arena with Hexen, but i think It's always better to show the original game with a dm pack or others.....

Link of the v. 1.1N:

I will make 4 more maps maybe, i will edit this second post then. (:
Need more mods for Hexen too! ^^

I would want participate to your pack.... but im really a novice/beginner!
I tried what i can lol. For the last version, i made it for the normal hexen dm (as you know :) )
Also, i deleted some items (too much disc of repulsion, flechette, quartz flask or and tried to rebalance the game with the items, i don't put the wings of wrath (too easily to get the best items/ weapons part and others) and the icon of the defender....
Basically, i wanted make my pack for the stand in some videogame festival, and i use 6 pc, like 3 for Quake 3 Arena or 3 for Hexen, si, it's basically made for 1-3 players with 2 bots, but i think, my map can be playable with 6 players..... maybe it's not the same style of your maps (for the gameplay type), i dont know, you will tell me (in PM?). :)

EDIT: Ah you will use a pk3 to balance the weapons...oh anyway, i wanted just make a vanilla dm hexen, because it was to show the original hexen dm for the festivals....
Like this, people can see how is really the game ^^
I will keep this style of "little "mapping....for the stands ;) (so for 3 players lol, very short maps).

Decay, Good luck for your pack man, i will play it, for sure! :D
Hexen has really original weapons :)

Ah, yes, i noticed the fighter can have a lot of advantage because his power is really high (specially in short area with the axe, with his high speed).
A friend told me Hexen use "projectiles" so, it can be long to kill a guy who has a lot health everywhere (he prefer the dm type of doom I think) but if there is more than 5 people on a short map, people can be killed quickly but if it's like 2 or 3 people? and yeah, he said me the same for the jump parts...specially with the first map.... :s
Thank you for your advices, i will try to see what i can do!! :)
(i send you a pm with the changes i can make because i'm not sure about it...)

EDIT: Last update with the screenshots, i tried to balance with a lot of tries and tests as i can.... (for the screenshots, i have a problem with the capture screen" of zandronum, i dont know why, i don't find my screenshots in the folders, even in all the computer...weird. I used Fraps.)
I will continue with "normal deathmatch hexen, because playing with the 3 class is the point of Hexen. :)

EDIT number 5260 xD : Well, an updated version of dm arena hexen, im really scared to explain (with my 6 pc) how work Hexen...but if there is some problem, i have an updated version with the 6 maps of the mod Hexdt1.4:
http://www.mediafire.com/download/fauh6 ... sdmhSP.rar
Mod Hexdt1.4 (made by The_Spartan): http://www.[bad site]/download?file=hexdt1.4.pk3

But i will start my map in the no-mod first :) I will see....(yeah, not played a lot online for hexen or heretic, too bad.... : ( (i use BE for it).
I will try at least to make the stand very fun! ^^
