Hexen DS ver 0.26
Most recent update
Hexen v0.26
Here's the latest update to Hexen's port to the DS, originally coded by Whitehouse, now maintained by Sektor.

What you need:
- The hexen.wad from the full version of Hexen (shareware is not currently supported)
- A DS and a compatible slot-1 or slot-2 device (tested on M3CF and DS-X OS v1.1)
How to use:
Step 1:
- Figure out what device you own
- hexenDS.nds is for GBAMP, MMD and slot-1 devices
- hexenDS.gba.nds is for slot-2 devices like SCSD and M3CF
- If you have a GBAMP, M3CF, SCCF, SCSD or DS-X then you don't need to use the DLDI patch. Skip Step 2.
Step 2:
- Download dlditool and the DLDI driver for your device
- Patch hexenDS.nds or hexenDS.gba.nds with a DLDI patch for your device
Step 3:
- Copy hexenDS.nds or hexenDS.gba.nds to any folder on your card (on DS-X it's best to use the apps folder)
- Copy a retail hexen.wad (19MB+) to /hexen.wad or /data/hexen/hexen.wad (that's X:\data\hexen\hexen.wad for Windows users)
- Launch Hexen and hope it can find hexen.wad
- It should saying "LOADING". It can take up to 15 seconds on some devices. There is no progress bar. It if takes longer, something is wrong.
What is broken:
- Saving and loading don't work.
- For now, use the level warp option in "ds" section of the main menu.
