hexen 2


So I think I found your problem (maybe) so instead of copying your pak0.pak and pak1.pak to /pandora/appdata/hexen2/ you have to copy the whole data1 directory from your cd to /pandora/appdata/hexen2/data1/ and then it works by just pressing the name of the game in the menu or desktop (depending on where you put the PND file)


No need for the typing Hexen of launch hexen etc.


Hope this helps


(we are not mean we just not always understand your problems instead of getting offensive you might want to try explaning it again and answering questions)


oeps haha actually somebody else already answered that :D

Rant? Hakmanplayer has been doing this in the support forums a lot, asking an unclear question and than getting mad if people dont get it, or ask for more information. It wasnt a rant it was more and advice to state questions more clear.


Why would he have to act all worked up if somebody asked him are you trying to run it on the pandora or on your pc. he could have said "on my pandora" but no he had to say "oh wait!!!! you mean a Pandora isn't a pc?? omg!! :huh: "


And yes I didnt see your post .. that explained it clearly

i am sick of being ganged up on all the time.


i just wanted help with hexen2 on my Pandy and all i get are stupid questions and unrelated responses.


i am sure if one of you pseudo-vips's asked a question, then the responses would be direct, helpful and professional.


ciao and cheers :D


Well because you just click on hexen 2 and it starts, nobody* understands why you have to use a command to run it. Sometimes it seem that you are from another world no offence. But it seems that a lot of stuff that just works for most people doesnt work with you. Do you intentionally try to do things different than the rest of us?


The only thing I can come up with is that you are trying to play hexen in dosbox, if so, why don't you say it in your post. And I would like to point out to you that there is a native engine. If you are using the native engine I have no clue what you are talking about, and you might want to add a bit more info in the post.


*at least a lot of people
That hurt. that really hurt..... maybe i don't know how to explain it!!!!!!!!


I guess you can't relate to that, because you are soooooo PC savoy.


People like you can't see past their big gut.


tHIS IS NOT THE FORUM TO BE 'DIFFERENT' this is a forum to ask for help!!!

Hi


I really think you should go to anger management classes, all you do is insult and offend people all the time.


People are at the point of not helping you because of your attitude towards people so much anger for no reason.


I for one will be ignoring you from now on you are beyond help I feel.

Firstly you need to copy the data files from the retail version of the game into the appdata/hexen2 directory.. It's in a folder called data1. copy that whole folder into the appdata/hexen2 directory. Although even before that you need to ensure that it's the 1.11 version of Hexen2.. I just installed Hexen2 on my old windows PC and applied the 1.11 patch then copied the files over. But you may not need to apply the patch if it's already version 1.11

Use the Hexen II: Hammer of Thyrion NanoGL Icon.. It should just work.


Hi


So am stuffed then if i have not got the 1.11 files, seeing as I use a Mac ?

There is some details about patching in the readme also other methods than installing it and applying it.

Could always use wine.. http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX


Or a virtual machine with windows 95 or above..

Well actually you don't need to be able to run it under OSX, you just need to be able to transfer the files over. So if you can find a version of the Win version 1.11 then you should be fine.

Check the md5 sum in the readme file.

Try to force it to open by dragging it and dropping it onto TextEdit in the Dock. My experience is that that quite often works.

try just opening it with your text editor (notepad in windows, gedit in linux, don't know what it is in OSX) TextEdit

This topic is quite old, but I also want to play Hexen II on my Pandora, but it doesn't work that well.


I have the 1.11 version of the game files and it also starts up on my Pandora but when I want to begin a new game it kicks me back to the desktop ;(


any ideas ?

Are you using the NanoGL or the Regular (software rendering) executable.. The NanoGL version works well for me.


So you have the 1.11 version, I take it you have the regular install and then applied the 1.11 patch? Just copying the data files from the patch into the data directory will not cut it.

Yes, I use the nanoGL version ( other version starts up too ).


and I don't quite get what you want to say with :

Just copying the data files from the patch into the data directory will not cut it.

Do u mean the files after patching or what ? ( sry, my english is not perfect ^^ )


What I did : use the patch but then it says: this patch doesn't work with this verison of Hexen II


and when I open Hexen on the PC it says in the bottom right corner : v1.11 , so I already have the right version..

check this link out, this is how I got it working.


http://www.gp32x.de...showtopic=55014
I already tried that, but the patch wont install, bec. I already have the 1.11


maybe I did something wrong :


I have the Hexen II-install folder in my harddrive, then I copy the patch into the folder and start it.. doesn't work


when I add the pak files to the new HexenII port app it starts up but doesn't apply a patch.


or do I have to do something else on my Pandora ? Its strage that it start up, but throws me back to the desktop when I want to start a new game in the menu.
