This page details one or more prototype versions of Hexen II.
This prototype is documented on Hidden Palace.
 | This page is rather stubbly and could use some expansion. Are you a bad enough dude to rescue this article? Notes: The prototype feels very under-dissected on this page right now. |
| To do:

The E3 prototype of Hexen II has quite a few interesting differences, such as Quake weapons using the Hexen II palette, unused textures and models, Windows sound effects, and a scrapped level not seen in the final game!

README.TXT
If you go to do a new game, and pick your character, only 1 level will work before it says it cant find a certain map. I didn't wan't to rename a bunch of the packaged maps so instead you should just go to the console and type "map <file>". The map names are in the directory data1\maps. Have fun! Made by NipKick
Music
All of the music is in MIDI format and not CD audio.
Maps
Surprisingly, these appear to work pretty well in the final game and even a modern source port such as Hammer of Thyrion.
btest
A test map that includes many objects from the game.
monsters
A test map in which you fight monsters in various environments.
Abandoned Observatory (meso7)
A scrapped level adjacent to Hall of 1000 Heroes. It's an Aztec complex above a cave network.
