J. Blazkowicz, the greatest spy and biggest risk-taker the Allied forces have ever known. The Second World War has been raging for two years, and your mission was to infiltrate the Nazi fortress Castle Hollehammer and retrieve Hitler's twisted plans for building the perfect army. Rumors have it that one of Hitler's most maniacal scientists, Dr. Schabbs, has perfected a technique for building fierce armies from the bodies of the dead. As bizzarre and unreal as it sounds, you were sent to investigate. You failed. Captured as you attempted to grab the plans, you were taken to the Nazi prison, Castle Wolfenstein, for questioning and certain execution. You've been held here for twelve long days, deep in the dungeons beneath the castle. Just beyond your cell door sits a single brutish Nazi guard, who helped torture you a few hours ago with a cattle prod. You can't take it anymore! Quivering pathetically in the corner, you beg for medical care in exchange for information. The guard smugly grins and reaches for his keys. He opens the cell door, the tumblers in the lock grinding noisily, the sound echoing down the dark corridors. The door squeaks open... the guard comes through... A quick blow to the knee takes him down. You grab his knife and finish him quietly. Standing over him, you quickly take his gun. Trapped in the bowels of the Nazi prison, you must escape. If you fail, you will surely die. = [ 2.0 System Requirements ] ================================================ = Wolfenstein 3D requires an Atari (Mega) ST(e)/TT 030 or Falcon030 system with at least 2MB of memory and a color monitor, both RGB and VGA being supported. A Mega STe or a faster machine is preferred for the high detail mode. A note to (Mega) ST users: A TOS version equal to or newer than 1.04 is strongly recommended as Wolfenstein 3D has _not_ been tested on anything below and i've been told there are various oddities with GEMDOS Malloc() calls (perhaps try out the poolfix.prg patch in case) below TOS 1.04. MultiTOS, other MiNT based multitasting OSes or MagiX are _not_ assured to run Wolfenstein 3D flawlessly, either. Booting into a clean SingleTOS is generally recommended if you encounter any sort of oddities. Note: I do not have enough time to bother fixing the game for each possible OS configuration, sorry...in fact i don't care very much either. Wolfenstein 3D should come with the following items in one folder, which we'll call "Wolfenstein 3D". docs\ A folder containing text regarding the game wolf3d.txt This documentation changes.txt Development snapshot and technical documentation bugs.txt Known bug issues wolf3d.prg The game application itself wolfprfs User preferences wolfmsx.pak A file containing all the game music wolfsfx.pak A file containing all the game sound effects wolfgfx.pak A file containing all the game graphics wolfmps.pak A file containing all the game scenarios = [ 3.0 The game ] =========================================================== = = [ 3.1 Running Wolfenstein 3D ] ============================================= = After starting Wolfenstein 3d the screen will go to black and an intro of logos and title screens will begin, as well as the theme music. Press SPACE to quickly skip through a screen or ESCAPE to skip the complete intro. You'll now be presented a screen which let's you choose one of seven scenarios. Having done so you'll enter the difficulty settings screen. The hardest level is "I am death incarnate!" and it takes getting used to, to say the least. Select one by highlighting and clicking "OK". The screen will now fade to black and you'll be warned to "Get Psyched!" while the game loads. It takes a moment, so be patient. As soon as the game finishes loading, the 3D world of Wolfenstein 3D will appear on screen for you to roam around in. Enjoy! = [ 3.2 Playing Wolfenstein 3D ] ============================================= = The controls for moving around in Wolfenstein 3D are: Function Key Move forward Keypad, Up Arrow Move backward Keypad, Down Arrow Turn left Keypad, Left Arrow, Turn right Keypad, Right Arrow Move (slide) left Alt + Keypad, Left Arrow Move (slide) right Alt + Keypad, Right Arrow Fire weapon Control Run Left Shift Open door/flip switch Space Bar Pause game Escape Once you've paused the game you can press Q/A (french keyboard) to leave the game or N to start a new game. You start the game with a knife and a pistol. Over time, you can pick up more weapons. The number keys on the keyboard select which weapon you'd like to use, if you have it. Weapon Key Knife 1 Pistol 2 Machine gun 3 Chain gun 4 Flamethrower 5 Rocket launcher 6 The higher the number, in general, the more powerful the weapon is. For rapid fire weapons, holding down the fire key will continue firing until you let go. Along with enemies you might encounter, there are also objects you can pick up. These are: Bullets A small blue box. These increase your available ammunition for the pistol, machine gun, and chain gun. Five bullets each box. First aid kit A white and blue box with a red cross. This fixes up some of your wounds, if you're hurt. Adds 25% to your health (100% maximum). Food A plate of food. This will help your health a little bit, but not as much as a first aid kit. Adds 10% to your health (100% maximum). Weapons These look like the weapon they are: machine gun, chain gun, flamethrower, rocket launcher. You won't find knives or pistols lying around, though. The Nazis are better armed than that anyway. Backpacks These contain ammo, and will increase your carrying capacity. Keys Keys unlock locked doors. Sometimes there's really awesome stuff behind locked doors. Other times, it's a brigade of stormtroopers, looking to wipe you out. Treasure The Nazis love treasure almost as much as they love killing. There's lots of valuable goodies scattered around Wolfenstein Castle, including crosses, chests, and goblets. Snag it when you see it for points and fortune! Collect 50 treasures to get an extra life! Gas These cans of gas fuel the flamethrower. Rockets Rockets are additional firepower for your rocket launcher. Power-ups A picture of yourself in a sphere. Gives you full health and another life! To pick up an object, walk over it. Once you have a key, you can open the corresponding door using the space bar, just as if it were an ordinary door. Keys are the same color as the lock they match. = [ 3.3 Your Current Status ] ================================================ = At the bottom of the screen is the status bar, which has several important pieces of information on it. Floor Which floor of the Castle Wolfenstein you're on. Score The number of points you have. You gain points by killing bad guys and as bonus points computed at the end of the level based on your performance. Every 40,000 points gains you an extra life, and collecting 50 treasures does, too. Item The number of treasures you've picked up on this floor. Collect 50 to get an extra life. Lives The number next to your head is the number of lives you have left. You start each episode with three lives. If you die, you'll restart the level with only the pistol and eight bullets (unless you're in "Can I Play, Daddy?" mode). Health When you start Wolfenstein 3D, you have 100% health. Every time you are hit, you lose health. Your health is indicated not just as a percentage, but also in the condition of your face. You'll look more and more hurt as your health gets worse. Grab some food or a first aid kit to heal up some. Ammo The amount of ammunition you have for the current weapon. You can carry up to 99 bullets. Be sure to pick up the ammo left behind when you kill someone. If you run out of ammo, and don't have another weapon with the right ammo, you're stuck with the knife. A backpack will increase your carrying capacity. Rewards After you finish a level, a Bonus Screen will evaluate your performance. Hidden rooms located, ratio of kills and percentage of treasure found will be comp...
