About me

My short presentation as a Hexen II / Quake mapper

I am a lover of the DHQH (Doom, Heretic, Quake and Hexen) series from the beginning. I've played those games hundreds of times and it's always a renewed pleasure, even after decades. And as it turns out, I'm far from being the only one!

In the late 2010s I discovered Rino's missionpack and that was a real shock for me. Those maps had such a nice atmosphere and conveyed so much personality (not to mention they helped to brush up on my Italian! XD) my interest for Hexen II immediately regained vigor. That inspiring work made me want to try my own luck in mapping right away!

So from early 2019 I have been starting working on my own project, Wheel Of Karma: A Tulku Odyssey. I made a page about that project if you are curious about it.

Over the course of things, I happened to spend countless hours on the Quake Mapping Discord since Hexen II is mostly a big big Quake mod, and that was a priceless place to get some technical knowledge about mapping. That's how I gained interest for Quake itself and tried may luck at it. The outcome of this interest is not less than 2 massive projects which got some high attention and appreciation by the Quake community: Church Of The Unholy and An Excursion to Carcosa, with the addition in early 2025 of the very unlikely and oniric Persistence of Memory…

For me it's very important (and always a pleasure) to exchange about the DHQH series, especially about Hexen II because we are not so many to be still interested in it, and even less on the mapping scene. So I made this site to share, exchange, and hopefully help our small community to improve its overall knowledge about mapping techniques, tools, ideas, etc. and create emulation, at my humble level.

Please don't hesitate to contact me! :)
I am also on Discord (nickname in.k.y) and HexenWorld, Heretic fandom, Slipseer and Func_Msgboard.
