Dawn of Darkness
Quake 2 mod | Released Jan 14, 2001
Dawn of Darkness was an excellent RPG/adventure/action game that was dumped by Ward Six Entertainment in 1999. It's not well-known, but it is a real gem, so make sure you play it.
Dawn Of Darkness takes place in a long vanished world of mighty forgotten empires and magic. It is the tale of a once revered Lucitanian warlord, Roarke The Merciless, caught between his obligations to his family, his empire and his honor.
You are Roarke the Merciless, imprisoned in the captured Manawyd monastary by an army from the Cheitan Empire who have attacked the village you have lived in. Roarke is an elite fighter, if perhaps a little out of practice since his days as one of Lucitan's greatest warlords. You begin playing armed with only the dagger Roarke had hidden in his boot, you must escape and find Sylmaril. How you do this is up to you. The game is played with basically the most of the same controls as Quake 2, except for the new commands and items bindings we've added.
Dawn of Darkness is a complete Total Conversion, including all-new weapons, bad guys, maps, textures, models, etc. There is even a new inventory system, and a character dialogue system where you can talk to anyone.
Weapons include a dagger and sword which you use by attacking while moving the mouse in the direction you wish to swing. Each weapon also has an alternate attack mode which do things like punch, block, etc. You can also get a bow, crossbow, pistol, blunderbuss, even a shovel. Some weapons have magical properties, like the sword which goes into Bloodlust mode when you're particularily lethal, and you can decapitate enemies.
Quake II 3.20 is required.

Make this game stand-alone. =D
Me again. I searched for the level names in te pak files with a program called Winpak, so i would load them in the colsole. I always to that with new mods if there arent any level list. But there ARE NOT maps in the paks files of DoD, so i believe that there is a mising pak file or something.
Im using the Clasic Quake II engine, beacuse Q2Evolved and KMQuake2 Crash in my PC o_o'
You should have a \roarke\ subdirectory in your Q2 install, if you installed the mod correctly.
You have to start the game with this command line:
\Quake2\quake2.exe +set game roarke
The best way to do that is to use a shortcut with that command line.
It won't run if you start Q2 and use the console to load the maps or run the mod. If you have trouble with the graphics in XP, copy the latest opengl32.dll from your Windows dir to the Q2 dir. I haven't tested DoD with any recently enhanced Q2 engine mods yet. If you are using one of those, it may not work.
I download it, but there aren?t maps, where can i get them? o_o
Anyway, the mod sounds great, with all those new functions and stuff, but i can?t it beacuse it don?t have the maps ._.?
hey, i downloaded dawn of darkness from here and when i type set game roarke in the console, the game works (i start with the dagger) but the problem is i am in a normal quake2 level and doors won't open, also there are no enemies. what's going on? can someone help me please?

Btw, Sajt, thanks for putting this page up and the well-written description!
Cool mod
That's the one I was looking for :)
I have it, but I lost the URL...
The Dawn of Darkness project seem to have died around the end of 2000 (from what I can tell). There is a much larger download (Dawn Of Darkness - Episode One (35.7 MB) available from Fileplanet :
