Wolfenstein 3D: Chalice of Glory

[NachtIntellect]

Hello all you wonderful people, have I got news for you today is the day, I have been grinding along trying to finish up as much as Wolfenstein 3D Chalice of Glory as possible and now I am releasing it to the public, so what does this include?

- 4 levels (5 if you find the secret but shh)
- 10 enemies (5 returning, 2 reskinned enemies, 3 entirely new)
- 7 weapons (Original 4, 3 newbies)
This offers a small slice of just what we have to offer

I'm a bit disorganised to be entirely honest I had a whole forum post written out somewhere in a text file and I seem to have lost it so this will just have to do, here's a download link, screenshots below, there's videos on my youtube here's a download link hosted on discord https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/ ... y_DEMO.zip

You'll need the VSWAP file from either Wolfenstein 3D or Spear of Destiny therefore it's recommended to get a steam version

Played the first level and a bit. I feel like there's a bit too little texture detail/contrast. In this scene, for example, the back wall past the ledge just looks like a continuation of the ledge as a single solid wall.



You can't really use lighting to fix this due to the Wolf3D aesthetic, but Wolf3D did use "darker" variants of textures to fake lighting contrast. Something like this may be useful.

I also felt the bits I played leaned too heavily on the new flamethrower, which was the only weapon I could find/use outside of the Pistol, to the point where it kind of exposed its biggest flaw: You can't see what you're shooting at!

The new assets seem pretty well done, though, I'm interested in seeing more.

I like it, but why do I need to have the VSWAP from the original game? I'm playing fan levels, not the original, am I not?

Legal protection which is necessary when you’re including entire data sets from commercial games.

Hey there Kinsie, first of all thank you for the feedback muchly appreciated, here's what we are doing to somewhat fix it, and I've done this for several places with a ledge for the time being, it should at the very least allow for determination on where there is a floor above an area, we are also going to have a texture and color mode for the flats and ceilings which should further help to distinguish between floors, infact AFADoomer has already implemented it, I am just now waiting on textures.

I also felt the bits I played leaned too heavily on the new flamethrower, which was the only weapon I could find/use outside of the Pistol, to the point where it kind of exposed its biggest flaw: You can't see what you're shooting at!

If I recall there was a specific setting for GZDoom to render sprites transparent? I'll have to have a look at it when I have the time if not then it's just simple for us to implement our own for things like the Flamethrower, Flame Trooper and the upcoming Heavy Flamethrower. Yeah those first 2 levels put you in a lot of close quarters situations, I am likely going to merge and overhaul the first 2 maps for episode 2 launch, they were just small enough for the player to get used to early combat.

The new assets seem pretty well done, though, I'm interested in seeing more.

Thank you very much, I cannot express my thanks enough to people like Sgt Shivers, JoeyTD, Atina, Nex & AFADoomer

I played around and am quite happy with the project. I feel that the project will be quite good! I will expect a Full Release!
