Support for "Doom In Hexen Zdoom" map format?
« on: June 16, 2008, 12:19:28 »
I made some maps on Doom In Hexen format, but they not run in Odamex... thats why im asking.

Is support for this format planned for a near/far future?

I really like the idea of Odamex, massive battles, Open Source and Software renderer.

Quote from: The Odamex Wiki
Will Odamex support advanced features?

That depends entirely on what you consider advanced features. Odamex strives for full Boom compatibility and also has other enhancements over regular Doom such as mouselook and jumping (which can both be turned off on the server level). Due to license conflicts, all Hexen source had to be removed or replaced.

Well, one thing is having the EXACT Hexen code, another is source code written from scratch that supports those extensions.
