Hexen II source port supporting Linux/FreeBSD/Unix/Windows Maintained by:alepulver@FreeBSD.org Port Added: 25 Feb 2007 15:58:16
In 2000, Raven Software released the source code to their class based shooter
game Hexen II and its multiplayer extension HexenWorld.
Since then, there has been some source ports of this game, most notably the
now neglected Anvil of Thyrion project. But nothing has been done for Linux
since the beginning of 2002.
The Hammer of Thyrion project continues the development for Linux and BSD
people, with continued support for Windows users as well. Many bugs are fixed
and even new features are added:
New sound modes, improved mouse handling, improved video modes, OpenGL glows
and more.
