hexen for mac
Wow interesting that the hexen for mac IWAD is so different! Any idea how it differs? --Shambler (talk) 08:39, 27 July 2015 (CDT)

I can have a look when I get home from work


 * Ideally, we need to end up with an article about it. I've been looking for info on Mac Hexen (and the rumored Mac Heretic) for several years and could never come up with anything. --Quasar (talk) 02:23, 28 July 2015 (CDT)

I have done quick look at the lump names and sizes. The Mac version is missing the GENMIDI and DMXGUS lumps and it has these extra lumps http://pastebin.com/Zc4abHd6 (the number is the size in bytes)--WadArchive (talk) 02:29, 28 July 2015 (CDT)

I have done a further look and all the extra lumps appear to be fonts, menu graphics and status bar images. The images are higher res versions of the originals. I have uploaded a comparison of the status bar. The Mac version is split into two entries STATBARL and STATBARR. There are also 5 entries (TITLE1 to TITLE4 and PRSGCRED) that I am unsure what their format is. Doing a quick google suggests they are some kind of demo https://code.google.com/p/hexen-wii/source/browse/trunk/source/h2_main.c?r=4&spec=svn4 --WadArchive (talk) 05:09, 28 July 2015 (CDT)

Do you still have this? I've built a bit of an archive of IWAD patches, and I only have versions 1.1 and 1.2 on hand. If you can provide a downgrade patch from 1.2 to 1.0, I'd like that. thanks. --Chungy (talk) 09:24, 10 November 2015 (CST)

Yup, I still have it. Here is the diff http://www.wad-archive.com/1.2-to-1.0.vcdiff. Thanks for the link to the repo, I have been after some of the WADs you have diffs for. --WadArchive (talk) 01:26, 11 November 2015 (CST)


 * Many thanks :D --Chungy (talk) 05:21, 11 November 2015 (CST)

Real sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, this is extremely late. When I saw my talk page, I thought it was Quasar who left both messages, I didn't know you left the first half. I'm not sure if you'll be around to read this; just in case if not, I'll try to reach you elsewhere.Betabox (talk) 12:34, 18 June 2017 (CDT)
