After a year of development, I've decided it's time for a release... Wolf 1.42 (aka iortcw) is an updated game engine for Return to Castle Wolfenstein based on the open source ioquake3 engine. There are hundreds of fixes and new features to bring the game more up to date while staying compatible with existing 1.41 release.

Changes & Fixes 1.42b:
MP: Fix vm_ cvars. Value of 2 uses qvm and falls back to dll if not available for use (as in the case of legacy mods)
All: Fix OpenAL dll detection on 64-bit Windows.
SP: Fix frozen spirits in cutscene at 'end' (final map)
All: Use same size for moon (r_drawsun) in both renderers
MP: Fix download loop when connecting to pure mod servers
All: Fix overflow on newer cards with very long lists of GL extensions
SP: Fix menu crash when displaying long strings of GL extensions
All: Use OpenAL-Soft on Mac instead of Apple's implementation
All: Add the old cl_avidemo back in for backward compatibility (Screenshot method - no sound)
SP: Fix crash when using pmove_fixed 1
All: Make r_fullscreen a latched cvar again (require video restart).
MP: Fix g_doWarmup cvar
All: Fix sound stutter at map changes.
MP: Fix voice chats being cut off by other sounds.
SP: Partially fix character lip animations when using OpenAL
MP: Fix searchlights like on mp_dam
All: Removed the 'xxx... entered the game' messages
All: Fix a bunch of shader and drawing issues in rend2.
All: Fix missing wall marks in Rend2 (bullet holes, etc)

Movie in memory of the great time on the RtCW KT-Clan fun server

RtCW .BSP to .MAP Converter - A very handy map-making tool for Return to Castle Wolfenstein mappers, either new or experienced. The "comdlg32.ocx" file is also included in the download, with instructions on how to install it.

Usage Information
# Run DeBSP.EXE and [Browse] for the BSP file you wish to decompile, (It can decompile any quake engine map except SOF maps). Once you have picked the file you wish to decompile press the [Decompile] button and a MAP file will be created in the same folder as the BSP and with the same name.

# Please do not use this tool to rip other people's maps off. Just use it to gain more knowledge about map making. Always give credit to original map-makers.

Halloween – Return to Castle Wolfenstein - Skull Papercraft

This halloween papercraft is a Wolfenstein Skull, created by Tektonten. “This skull is based on a 3D model from the World War II themed video game, Return to Castle Wolfenstein.”

 In the game, skulls like this can be found (among other places) in secret rooms inside Nazi strongholds. As with the other skulls in the series, this one is roughly 1:1 scale.
