A faithful reinterpretation of the classic Wolfenstein 3D for the DOOM sourceport EDGE-Classic (https://edge-classic.github.io/index.html) complete with all six original episodes plus Spear of Destiny and the console port levels known as the First/Second Encounter. Comes with a "standard" version mimicking the PC original and a HD version mimicking the Macintosh-family of ports. Get psyched!

Interesting, so are the episodes recreations of the originals or what?

I've never finished wolf3d :-/

I just got some final touches to do, so probably within a matter of days

Yes, converted using the MapToWad utility.

I extracted the zip in a folder and loaded the wad with the latest stable 3DGE with my Ult Doom IWAD. But I must have done something wrong, episodes are wrong, music and textures are missing. Why is the data in a separate "Wolf3d data" folder?

I did try to rename the zip to pl3 and load it :cry:

The "Wolf3d data" folder is where all the resources are held and as such is vital for the game to work properly and you probably need a DOOM2 IWAD for it. Just extract the entire contents of wolf3dge.zip into the same folder as 3DGE 1.36 and your DOOM 2 IWAD. Load WOLF3DGE.WAD.

Seems to work very nicely. Shame those hi-res sprites are only available from one angle (but that's not the mod's fault).

Ah, ok, I was loading it from a different folder using ZDL.

It's very good, this may be the time when I actually play through Wolf3D. ECWolf's Vsync doesn't work, I can't move with the minimap open. Wolfendoom TC replicates the atrocious player movement of the original and the ridiculous door open/close sounds.

But your mod has doom-like movement and some conservative bobbing, much better :-)

But why doesn't it have bullet puffs? Maybe when 3DGE adds them you can also have decals. And it's gonna be even better with uncapped framerate!

Wolf3D didn't have bullet puffs or blood splats and neither did any of the official ports of the game. Besides, the bullet puff I did put in just didn't look right so I scrapped it. The goal of this mod is, after all, to try and emulate the original game(s) as closely as possible but with DOOM-like movement as opposed to the blocky and bulky Wolf3D-movement.

I actually think that it's harder to play wolfenstein with doom movement. Feels nicer though.

This is awesome, i always had a bad time playing classic wolf because of movement, but now i feel more "at home".

Played through Episode 1, really great! It's cool to play through a mac port styled TC.
Just ran through Episode 3, now I'm wondering if you're planning on tackling the alternate levels from the First and Second Encounter on the mac? It'd be cool to play through those with the added strafing and movement of the 3dge port.
