Hexen demo not working on Mac

zxthehedgehog · 2012 Mar 22

Hi. I downloaded the demo of Hexen a few days ago and it is not working on my Mac. Doom, Chex Quest, and Heretic all work, but Hexen just brings me to the prompt and if I tell it to load Hexen it says it can't find the wad. What's going on?

I've tested this and it appears that the HeXen demo game mode is accidently looking for the Iwad from the full version of HeXen instead of either of the demo Iwads (there are two different demo versions of HeXen with some differences in the Iwads).

A bug certainly.

I've reported it to the bug tracker for you, here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=d ... tid=542099

Thanks. Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

At least I can play this in DOSBox.

The same but with the full version of hexen and under the 1.9.7 windows version of doomsday engine. Try the 1.9.0 beta 6.9. its works for me.
