Subj: DREAMS, FLASHBACKS
Date: 92-08-09 03:59:55 EDT
From: Tug Hill 2
Posted on: America Online
On a serious note...
As a former POW (Vietnam), I hesitated to play WOLF for over a
month after downloading as I feared flashbacks. I didn't want to
remember all that I had been through all those years ago, when, as
POW's, my friend and I decided an escape attempt would be better than
a slow death by torture and starvation.
My friend and I made crude maps and hoarded food. The day of the
escape we clubbed the guard with stones, took his gun and fought our
way through two levels of underground tunnels (only a few guards and
had to crawl). I made it, my friend didn't.
Dreams...NO! NIGHTMARES...YES!! However, the more I play
WOLF the less frequently I have nightmares. The chilling part is
turning a corner and seeing a guard with his gun drawn.
WOLF is a powerful game. Fearful as well. I believe that a
person should face the past. So... when I can play EPISODE 1
comfortably (no nightmares), I plan on ordering the full series.
Don't let a few bad dreams make you discard this game.

Subj: Wolf-3D Section: Action/Arcade Games

Jay, just thought I'd drop a note to let you know how popular Wolf3D is
here at Microsoft. It seems like I can't walk down a hall without hearing
'Mein Leben' from someone's office. I hope you guys are getting revenue
from all this.
Anyway, we were sitting around talking the other day, discussing games for
Windows, and someone said 'What are those cool guys at Id doing?'. So how
about it. Are you guys looking at Win games at all? Win32?
In a perfect world, I'd have you guys port the Wolf engine to a multiuser
maze game for Windows for Workgroups. We need a good M'user Win game.
Anyway some thoughts.

We are releasing this code for the entertainment of the
user community. We don't guarentee that anything even
builds in here. Projects just seem to rot when you leave
them alone for long periods of time.
This is all the source we have relating to the original
PC wolfenstein 3D project. We haven't looked at this
stuff in years, and I would probably be horribly embarassed
to dig through my old code, so please don't ask any questions
about it. The original project was built in borland c++ 3.0.
I think some minor changes were required for later versions.
You will need the data from a released version of wolf or spear
to use the exe built from this code. You can just use a
shareware version if you are really cheap.
Some coding comments in retrospect:
The ray casting refresh architecture is still reasonably
appropriate for the game. A BSP based texture mapper could
go faster, but ray casting was a lot simpler to do at the time.
The dynamically compiled scaling routines are now a Bad Thing.
On uncached machines (the original target) they are the fastest
possible way to scale walls, but on modern processors you just
wind up thrashing the code cash and wrecking performance.
A simple looping texture mapper would be faster on 486+ machines.
The whole page manager caching scheme is unecessarily complex.
Way too many #ifdefs in the code!
Some project ideas with this code:
Add new monsters or weapons.
Add taller walls and vertical motion. This should only be
done if the texture mapper is rewritten.
Convert to a 32 bit compiler. This would be a fair amount
of work, but I would hate to even mess with crusty old 16
bit code. The code would get a LOT smaller.
Make a multi-player game that runs on DOOM sersetup / ipxsetup drivers.
Have fun...
