Wow, this campaign was really good!

Me(paladin) and hipshot(wizard) played it in 2,5 hours and once we came through the easier area it was a real blast! The game has a real nice difficulty curve with just the right amount of difficulty when playing two player.

I have not played the original Hexen but hipshot has played it 15 years ago and he didn't remember all of the map either. nontheless, the port was great!

Spolier alert : // STARTS

As we came closer to the end of the game destroying all levelprogression statues/walls/gears we were not sure if we had won the game because the main hub is called Seven portals but we couldn't locate the last exit portal(?) even though we all the progression items were destroyed.

Did we miss something? I assume there must be a end screen we didn't reach.

Spolier alert : // ENDS

The only critic I have is that some textures feel very flat or walls that have missing corners, some characters have different pixel resolutions which could be improved upon so the all have a the same consistency.

ps: these skulls freaked hipshot out, great stuff

pps: We hope you will be able to add this map omtp steam workshop, so more people can enjoy this map!

WARNING SPOILERS

Can any one else confirm that you can't complete the game? It's actually difficult for me to test.

Are you sure you hit all switches? Did the you solve all sixths of the puzzle on seven portals? There are two in each Guardian. After which an passage on Seven Portals should open opposite to where to the starting portal is.

Ah, I know we did not finish the puzzle because one was in the steel maze which we ignored after losing loads of lives, I guess we have to get back there to finish the game :P

Thanks for reply!

Yea, that steelmaze was very tough to handle =)

Really cool map, it looks very nice and it got long playtime.

Played it on medium with a friend and we had lot of fun. Espacially the steelmaze was great fun.

At the end a Boss is missing, it's a little big boring at the end (yeah i know we shouldn't expect).

So 4/5 stars

Hope there will be more maps like this!

Thanks for the feedback Chris, I really appreciate it. I see you guys are very thorough in your play throughs. Most of those were simple fixes and will be corrected in the next patch. I'll respond to a few of the ones that aren't so easy here:

For that that haven't played through spoilers are ahead.

- I think the score not working is out of my control, I have all the same code in menu/gui/end.xml except for replacing the castle with my own image.

- Regarding the panel bridge in Griffin Chapel I'm not sure what you mean by death area overlap, if you are on the bridge when it vanishes you are supposed to die, otherwise you would get stuck. Unless you somehow took damage while the bridge was still active.

- The spike shooter in Guardian of Ice can be avoided by triggering the ice spikes to the left and right to block the spikes while you run through.

- The doors appearing on the minimap is something that needs work but I'm not prioritizing, it mostly occurs in the early areas because I wasn't destroying them after they finished opening since they had to minimap icon in previous versions.

- The rune puzzle in the north-east corner of Guardian of Ice is working as intended, not sure what confused you.

- The lava in Guardian of Fire does very little damage and is working as intended.

- Is the Guardian of Ice bug regarding the checkpoint possibly from an earlier version? The checkpoint seems to be working fine when I tested it.

- I'm not sure what to do about the original powerups being dropped by breakables. They are base assets do if I wanted to remove I'd either have to change the base asset and just keep a backup (which is probably what I'll end up doing) or create new breakables that are part of the hexen mod which would mean replacing every single one.

Can you reupload the level for non-steamers, because the tinyurl link says that no file is found.

Thanks,

- Ok, the scoring bug is a strange one, might have had to do with us loading and doing all sorts of strange things while playing, it kept score in the statistics screen, but never showed them properly on the end screen.

- The Griffin damage area was when we were walking back from completing everything on those other sides, it's a strange bug I admit that, look in that area and see if you see any damage areas that can partly overlap the glass bridge

- The guardian of ice puzzle confused us, because we never understood what the buttons did. We felt as we completed the runes AFTER the door was opened and we never understood what happened then.

- It's mostly that you CAN get trapped there and HAVE to die so =)

- The guardian of ice bug might have been form a earlier version yes, we didn't want to "try" it now because last time we did, it messed up the entire game for us haha

- You can easily fix this, copy the barrels and crates from the original assets folder and place them in your mod folder, open them and just remove the loot table and there will be no old mana and such dropped. OR you can just do the same with the mana item, just take your new mana and make a duplicate and name it the same as the old mana and it will replace it.

Btw, thanks for fixing that part in the beginning where you had to die before, now there's a path underneath where you can walk back!

Hey everyone,

I hope this is the right topic, please tell me if not ;)
I started playing the campaign recently and had a blast so far... However, now I can't continue due to an error that keeps crashing the game.

SPOILER ALERT

I just opened the last of the six gates in Seven Portals, the second portal to Guardian of Steel.
As soon as I walk more than a few steps into the passage on the left the game crashes with the following message:

--- UNHANDLED EXCEPTION - 06.05.2015 15:48:40 - HMW 1.31 ---

Just as an additional information: the path c:\... does not exist on my system...
I tried to verify the game cache (I play on steam) but it didn't help.
Did any of you experience this problem or know how to take care of it?

Well the good news is it was any easy fix and has now been patched. The bad news is if you want to continue you have to download the new version and play up to that point again, my apologies, thanks for bringing this to my attention. Not sure how it went a week without anyone posting anything about it considering it is unavoidable.

If only way I could see you continuing with the current version is this, but it's a long shot:
On the upper side on the interior square on Guardian of Steel if you are playing as the Paladin try dashing past the spikes to open the door in the top right corner. The script that crashed the game trigger whenever you walk past the three torches next to the 2nd Guardian of Steel portal.

Post by: TheYashasama on May 12, 2015, 04:15:38 PM
Thanks for the fast fix :)
It didn't took me more than a few hours so I might replay it if the workaround doesn't work since I did play as Paladin.

Cheers,
TheYashasama

Great map! One if the best, if not the best, custom Hammerwatch maps I've played.

We did encounter a pretty severe bug, which destroyed our save file.
At a certain point* , the game crashed. Now, everytime the save file is loaded, the game crashes, generating the following error:
Code: [Select]
--- UNHANDLED EXCEPTION - 2015-05-29 22:13:25 - HMW 1.31 ---

   at ARPGGame.Program.Main(String[] args) in c:\Projects\ARPGProj\trunk\ARPG\ARPGGame\Program.cs:line 193
------

I suspect the error lies with that backtick (`) in the line:
Code: [Select]
at System.Collections.Generic.List`1.get_Item(Int32 index)It seems to be the first line that really matters, and shares that argument name "index" with the top lines about the error.
Is it a typo?
I'd very much like it to be fixed, I hope that my save file will work then.



*
The "certain point" was the third time (i think) in the Guardian of Ice.

Unfortunately because of how saved games work in Hammerwatch you can't carry over the progress you made to the new versoin.  :-\

First download the map here: http://tinyurl.com/qcls5rz
Second move to the following folder within your Hammerwatch directory C:/.../Hammerwatch/levels/workshop

It might be different since you're using the GOG version, so likely C:/GOG Games/Hammerwatch/levels
