Hexen: Land of the Serpent Riders (Complete!)

[zombie_ryushu]

Place them on their pedastals in the village, it will open the door to the first Oblivion Knight in South Tower.

So we are testing Land of the Serpent riders with my friend in single and multiplayer and it doesnt work correctly.

 

1) If I launch game as single player, there are 2 episodes.  if I start episode name "hexen beyond heretic", it starts in Mazaera - Dark temple map. I suppose thats wrong, you should start in original Hexen first map?

 

And if I start "land of the serpent rider" episode, it warps me into map "temple of the moon". Is that correct?

 

 

 

2) if we launch multiplayer, we are playing coop with my friend via bat file with -host 2 -warp01 commands (we played all mods for Hexen that actually exists with this method :D), we start in Mazaera map and it imediately starts popping messages "WOC_nametags changed to shrine maiden" "WOC_healthnumbers changed to lvl:0 5/0" and so on. It pops up everytime you look on NPC or basically anything.

 

 

 

Is this supposed to play only with Zandronum or whats the problem here?

This can be played on gzdoom, but it is designed with Zandronum in mind.

As for the Starting map. You are supposed to start on Map00, Land of the Serpent Riders. We added the episode tag and this problem is due to issues we didn't have time to fix before release or would have required major restructuring of the mod.
We can't prevent the "Hexen Beyond Heretic" option from Appearing. This is because we named our Maps as MAP01, MAP02, MAP03 and so on. When we should have named them: LSR01, LSR02 etc. to fix this would have required major restructuring of the mod.

As for your Shrine Maiden naming Glitch. That is a Wrath of Cronos initialization problem and can indicate that Wrath of Cronos is failing to properly load and run calculations on the NPCs level. You might have. messed up the load order. I will load the game in gzdoom, and get you a proper command line, but you are SUPPOSED to start on MAP00

Got it, thanks. Though the pedastals just seemed like furniture, so maybe a hint that they are supposed to be used might help.
