DualHexan is an alternative version of HexenDS. It is a dual-screen port of Hexen to the Nintendo DS initially made by Rich Whitehouse. This modified version is made by Sektor with added support for more devices, changed the controls, added sleep mode, quit to menu option and other minor things.

It was entered into the 2009 best DS homebrew contest.

Installation

Note: You will need to prepare your own WAD in order to play this game.

Download and extract hexenDS.nds to the apps folder of your card.

DLDI patch it (if you have a GBAMP, M3CF, SCCF, SCSD or DS-X then you don't need to use the DLDI patch) and put it in your card.

Start DualHexen from your Apps menu.

It should say LOADING. There is no progress bar.

Known issues

Saving and loading don't work. For now, use the level warp option in the ds section of the main menu.

Changelog

  • Selecting quit should now return to hbmenu compatible loaders.
  • Not tested but should be Sudokuhax/iEvo DSi mode compatible.
  • There are still many Z_Malloc memory errors (need to reduce memory usage).
