Welcome to heXen: Edge Of Chaos
A total modification for Doom3

Best not to show things till we have something to show. That's always been our motto and it still is. We currently have an active team of 12 members working on the game. We are expecting to release the new website, media and teaser soon. We are hoping (not confirmed yet) to release by December 2008.

We've come a long way in the development. We've had many ups and many downs, both on a professional level as on a personal level. It's left us with a tight, professional team.
I (as team lead) could not be prouder of this team persevering for so long, with no other incentive but the desire to see a new game in the Hexen/Heretic universe.

Check in to Edgeofchaos.planetdoom.gamespy.com for the latest info!

Cheers,
Bastian
Team lead Hexen:Edge of Chaos

We'll keep this short and easy, Edge of Chaos is a 4 years in development total conversion for Doom3. Our current build weighs in at about 2 GB's of assets, models, sounds and textures. We have most monsters, many game play elements, and weaponry in place but our development is being hugely delayed by lack of good maps.

New mappers can count on many assets and a lot of help in the form of elaborate story and design-documents and a dedicated concept artist to help them visualize certain details of maps.

What else can we say to make it interesting for you?

Without trying to be cocky or arrogant, Edge of Chaos:

- already has a huge fanbase, we receive many fanmails daily
- several key game studios have expressed interest in our development team, we've seen some of our members already join game studios as developer.
- we already have contact with many game sites and gaming magazines for lots of exposure when the time of release comes.
- we can't imagine what else a modder would want from joining a mod team like ours; attention from the gaming community at large, an easier way of filling your portfolio with professional work; an international and talented team behind you.

Are you a good, dedicated, mapper and want to be a part of this prestigious Total Conversion?
Then don't wait and contact us now.

I think with small number of mappers you can re-organize faster and coordinate better. You can easily watch their work and create better quality map. Remember quality is better than quantity, or you can make it episodic.

This is going to be absolutely amazing! I used to go over my friends house and play Hexen II on the Nintendo 64 a lot. The screen shots are few here, but I can tell you guys have been really workin' hard on this, and for a long time! Using Doom 3 is a perfect idea for it. I'll watch this. :)

Indeed, we are still very much alive.

The mod has been in development for over 3.5 years.
We will not quit, and if we would then it would be announced as big news. No such news will come, we are very, very, dedicated and there is no reason on earth to quit development when we are so far ahead.

We do not update regularly because we live with a motto: Show stuff when you've got stuff to show and when the timing is right (e.g. before a pending release). Show stuff when you have time to show stuff. Media releases and updates take precious time, which we would rather put into actually developing the game.

To all who support us and are fans, thanks so much!

The current build weighs in at about 3.2GB. We are contemplating on releasing 2 versions, a hi-res version and a lo-res version. But this creates issues with MP.
