I've finally gotten around to editing for Hexen, but really don't know what I'm doing yet LOL Where can I find information on this? Also, how do you run custom maps in Hexen?

By using the JHexen launcher.

You run custom maps the same as in DOOM.

Thanks, but neither of those answers tell me much, as I have no idea of where to find jhexen (I already tried looking for it), and have no idea of how to launch the maps through the main programme.

Hexen editing is just like editing doom.

except to two things.

polyobjects and SCRIPTS *thunder and lightning roars through the forums*

polyobjects are like moving 3d objects - swinging doors

and scripts allows you to totally customize everything you can offer. You can control the speed of doors, how much you want a floor to move, make a message, make something happen after killed a # of monsters.

just think fragglescript, but a little easier http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/wink.gif

I thought WA did. I was almost ready to assume that DeePsea did too, but not quite.

Im sure you are right about HETH too, its a version of DETH made specially for Hexen.

I just never get any credit http://forums.newdoom.com/UBB/smile.gif Remember who told you that? Also be aware that HETH was never developed more like DETH was, so be prepared for a lot more bugs. I wouldn't recommend it.

You can probably use ZETH for HEXEN, just don't use any ZDOOM stuff!
