Post news Report RSS Rivensin and HardQore Status

Summery of what is currently going on with the Doom 3/Dhewm 3 mods Rivensin and Hardqore.

Posted by on

Figured it was time to let everyone know what is going on with both Doom 3/Dhewm 3 mods.

Rivensin: The game is mostly in maintenance mode. Thanks to the recent updates to Dhewm 3; new bundles for the 64 bit and 32 bit version are coming. The 32-bit version will now include the missing editing tools! This includes the level editor, gui, particle and and more. Dhewm 3 build 1.5.1 added support and improvements over the original versions. This should prove useful for anyone interested in making their own content or porting content to Rivensin or HQ on Dhewm 3.

Originally I planned to flesh out the story elements and expand on the levels for the Rivensin mod, but feel my time is best spent moving Rivensin from a mod to a standalone game . This is not to say there will be no more new content for Dhewm3 Rivensin such as maps.

Hardqore: Production of the 2019 update has been halted due to the need to address many unforeseen bugs and needed improvements. I've hit a wall when it comes to this due to not being a programmer by trade. If anyone is interested in helping out please let me know and I will resume work on the update. Many of the main updates needed for the game have been added in, but they still require bug fixing and more to make them feel solid.

The future: An additional unannounced project is in the works and has been for years now. I am hoping this will be the year that it finally happens. This is not a mod and will be a fully stand alone game. Once the game is around 50% done, it will be shown. What I can say is that it is Rivensin related and will be vastly different from the mod.

Cheers!
