Herexen
A downloadable mod
A (fully vanilla Doom-compatible) Heretic + Hexen crossover project, putting lots of weapons and monsters from those games (and some customs) into Doom. Some creative liberties were taken due to limitations. Fully compatible with Doom 1 as well! Making use of Fraggle's limited palette hack means the mod is compatible with Back to Saturn X and Sunlust. Technically D2TWID as well, but it's secret maps will break due to the dehackery in place here.
You play as Baratus, the fighter class from Hexen. This time he's a little more willing to use ranged weapons and more magic, though! And he'll need it because a lot of the enemies are especially nasty here. Some of which include centaurs and slaughtaurs with working shields, wendigos with triple projecitle waves, dark bishops with teleporting and shadow clones, iron liches throwing whirlwinds at you, and of course Korax himself.
