Korax Mod: 20th Anniversary Edition

Korax Mod 5.2 is now available on SourceForge and ModDB.

Korax Mod 1.0, the first ever gameplay mod for Hexen, was released exactly twenty years ago on June 14, 2001. To celebrate this occasion, a special 20th Anniversary Edition has been released today that includes a unique in-game menu called “Anniversary Extras”, containing a short history of Korax Mod, a long-lost interview, and player feedback from the early years.

Improvements and fixes:

  • The inventory and spellstrip movement bug has been finally fixed
  • When RPG Complexity is set to Off, instead of the useless weight/hunger/fatigue indicators a new overlay is shown, displaying the current values of all six D&D abilities
  • Healing prayer now doesn’t deduct Faith if the player is at full health
  • Create Mana cantrip now doesn’t deduct Magic if the player has full mana stores
  • The default roll is now more suitable for the early game
  • Feedback messages for class abilities are now always displayed in the top left corner
  • All class abilities now respect the sound setting
  • Improved the behaviour of the gimme cheats for gaining levels and acquiring all class abilities
