A mod for Hexen 2 that adds weapon altfires and various balance tweaks, effects, bugfixes, & new features for mappers. There are additional options like fading corpses and monster respawning. This fork is based on the Shadows Of Chaos mod/mapset by Bloodshot, which is in turn based on the Game Of Tomes mod. Detailed description, credits, & instructions included in readme file.
Unzip the contents into your Hexen 2 directory so that there is an "soc" folder sibling to the data1 folder. If you have the game's Portals Of Praevus expansion pack and want to play with it, download the expansion version instead. To play, use the included .bat file. You can replay the vanilla game and user maps with the mod, or create new maps using the mod's various features. There are also a few releases using the mod's features. Install them into the mod's folder, without allowing any overwriting. The only conflict is that they include different Strings.txt, so you'll need to manage that file. If you don't plan on reading or modifying the mod's code, delete the "src" source code folder.
