Installation
How to install:
- Place the data folder in ux0: and place your data1 folder from your Hexen II purchased installation in ux0:/data/Hexen II.
- If you want to install also Portal of Praveus, copy also the portals folder to ux0:/data/Hexen II.
- If you have the Steam version of Hexen II, refer to this post.
How to use soundtrack:
- Soundtrack is supported in MIDI, OGG and MP3 formats.
- Files must be placed in ux0:/data/Hexen II/cdtracks and must be named for example as track00.ogg, track01.ogg, etc (case-sensitive).
- If you are extracting tracks from your Hexen II cd, this is the correspondence between track name and track filename:
- track02 -> casa1
- track08 -> egyp3
- track14 -> roma3
- track03 -> casa2
- track09 -> meso1
- track15 -> casb1
- track04 -> casa3
- track10 -> meso2
- track16 -> casb2
- track05 -> casa4
- track11 -> meso3
- track17 -> casb3
- track06 -> egyp1
- track12 -> roma1
- track07 -> egyp2
- track13 -> roma2
Custom Crosshair:
- Starting with vitaHexenII v.2.3, it will be possible to use a completely custom crosshair with the game.
- To do so, you should create a file named xhair.bin and place it in ux0:data/Hexen II/GAMEFOLDER folder (GAMEFOLDER will be data1 for main Hexen II for example).
- This file must contains 64 bytes that will define the 8x8 crosshair glyph. A byte set at 0xFE will mean a visible pixel. A byte set at 0xFF will mean an invisible pixel.
- The custom crosshair usage can be enabled in Options menu. If no xhair.bin is provided, when Custom crosshair will be set, QuakeWorld crosshair2 will be used.
- You can also alter crosshair color by setting these three values in config.cfg - crosshaircolor_r, crosshaircolor_g, crosshaircolor_b.
- By default these three values are set at 255, 255, 0.
