Spoiler: The Story
Wolfenstein took you into the past. Amerika the Beautiful brings you into the present.
Your name is Lt. Michael F. Blazkowicz, and you come from a long line of military heroes. Your grandfather, William "B.J." Blazkowicz, helped the Allies defeat the Nazis back in World War II, and your father, William Jr., fought against the communists in Vietnam. When the Gulf War broke out, it was your turn to serve your country, and you proudly carried on the fight for freedom.
Now you're back home with your wife, son and daughter, enjoying the tranquility of peacetime. But soon, trouble begins to brew anew, and this time the threat doesn't come from any foreign agent, but from some of your own army buddies. They, along with other armed forces personnel all across the country, have formed a secret Neo-Nazi, white supremacist organization, amassed an arsenal of stolen weapons and equipment, and plotted a war that will begin with the terrorist bombing of various government buildings. Can you stop the same evil your ancestors fought against from happening on your very own home soil?
Spoiler: About
This is a compatibility patch for the Mac Wolf3D Scenario "Amerika the Beautiful"! Using a modified version of the original mod, and ECWolf's badass ability to use pk3 files, I have made this classic mod able to be used with ECWolf! Not only that, but I have also made a separate version that allows you to use the PC Wolfenstein files rather than the Mac Wolf files! For the first time, enjoy this awesome mod with a PC or modern Mac!
Spoiler: How to Use
using Third Encounter
1. Download "Third Encounter Version"
2. Extract "amerika_mac_fix.zip" to your ECWolf folder
3. Make sure "wolf3D.bin" and "wolflvls.bin" are either in your ECWolf or global ECWolf folder
4. Run "ecwolf --file Amerika the Beautiful.bin amerika_fix.pk3"
5. Play
using Wolfenstein 3D 1.4
1. Download "Wolfenstein 3D 1.4 Version"
2. Extract "amerika_PC_fix.zip" to your ECWolf folder
3. Make sure all files with extension .WL6 are either in your ECWolf or global ECWolf folder
4. Run "ecwolf --file ATB_PC_Source.bin amerika_fix_PC.pk3"

Different missile and flamethrower sprites

Thanks.
EDIT - Where can I find the Third Encounter .bin? I tried google, and it led me to the executable, not the .bin.

Of course you or anyone don't remember, it was only from his tumblr blog for long time ago. But i, reminded this because i helped his mod and it's a remake of this wolf TC. So it was just my thought, excuse me.

You need the Mac version of Wolfenstein 3D. THen on a modern Mac open a terminal and type "macbinary encode" then drag the executable to the window. Rename to wolf3d.bin
