Wolf Patch 1.42a (aka iortcw) released!

Published in RtCW Misc

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. Look the Image Gallery!

What's new: (1.42)

Client:
SDL backend
OpenAL sound API support (multiple speaker support and better sound quality)
Full x86_64 (64-bit) support (all platforms including Mac)
Optional new OpenGL2 based renderer for improved graphics. See rend2-readme.txt
Bloom lighting for original renderer
VoIP support, both in-game (using Opus 1.1 codec) and external support through Mumble. See voip-readme.txt
Correct handling of widescreen resolutions
IPv6 support
Working master server list (with support for multiple master servers)
Built-in game minimizer
AVI video capture of demos
Much improved console autocompletion
Persistent console history
Colorized terminal output
Ogg Vorbis support
QVM support
cl_guid support
HTTP/FTP download redirection (using cURL) for fast map and mod downloads
PNG image support
IQM model support
Lots of bug fixes

Server:
HTTP/FTP download redirection (using cURL) for fast map and mod downloads
Fast UDP downloads for legacy clients
Many exploits fixed (getstatus / getinfo flooding and rcon attacks)
Full x86_64 (64-bit) support (all platforms including Mac)
Server side wallhack prevention.
Colorized terminal output.
IPv6 support
Improved standard ban system.
Lots of bug fixes

What's new: (1.42a)

Client:
Updated SDL backend to 2.0.3 (improved video and input handling)
Update cl_guid support to use Punkbuster GUID's (based on CD Key like official 1.41 client)
Updated curl libraries to support downloads from secure (https and ftps) servers (both IPv4 and IPv6)
Sound fixes (some stuttering, volume, and doppler issues fixed)
Rend2 (updated renderer) fixes (especially lighting and cubemap fixes)
Add support for gender specific obituaries (using cvar sex "male"/"female")
Fixed flag animations when using QVMs
Fixed crash with QVM->dll communication
Fixed AI showing phone jack (connection interrupt) icons when dead (Single Player)
Fixed colored name padding in status command
Add new command 'cvar_modified' to show a list of all cvars that were changed from defaults.
Random bug fixes
Added sample config to enable hi quality graphics using new renderer (In console, /exec hiquality.cfg; vid_restart)
- *Requires OpenGL2/3 capable video card/drivers*

Server:
Added support for map specific configs (to set server cvars on a per map basis, such as gametype, respawn times, etc.)
- To use, create a 'mapcfgs' folder inside of 'main' to hold you per map configs. Naming convention is .cfg
Fix pk3 download error messages
Potential filesystem issue fixed

Please refer to the README for new cvar settings and general information.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein Singleplayer Misssion - Vendetta 2 - Demo Version

Yo$hik has released a demo version of his "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" singleplayer addon mission, "Vendetta 2". This 3-map adventure, although still a work in progress, has made superb progress already and it has been a real pleasure to test it.
Hopefully, after this successful demo version, Yo$hik will continue his work on this superb project and our "RtCW" Community will get to play this singleplayer mission in its entirety. In the meantime, download and enjoy these excellent maps.

Axis Skin mod - Redux Return to Return to Castle Wolfenstein (2.0) by SidneyReilly1925

With "Wolfenstein: The Old Blood" to be unleashed in May, it's time to return to Castle Wolfenstein once again with the "Redux Return To Return To Castle Wolfenstein."

"Redux Return To Return To Castle Wolfenstein" is a new version of "Return To Return To Castle Wolfenstein" which now includes younger versions of B.J. Blazkowicz and General "Deathshead" Strasse from "Wolfenstein: The New Order" as well as improvements (and some complete changes) to my NPC renderings in the original mod.

These uniforms are as historically accurate as possible according to Osprey Publishing's military history books and feature accurate designs based on uniforms of the Heer, Kriegsmarines, Luftwaffe, Afika Corps, and the SS.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein - ioRtCW version 1.51c

This is a small maintenance release, mainly to address a couple of crash and potential security issues for the "ioRtCW" engine, the libraries for sound/video/input have also been updated.
The creation of "ioRtCW" has enabled the modernising of "Return to Castle Wolfenstein". This excellent work has completely transformed the game and it now has many of the modern-day features that we take for granted with newer game releases.

Here's some screenshots of "ioRtCW", with an added HD texture pack. The results are excellent.
It doesn't matter if you use a Linux, Mac or Windows operating system, there's a version of "ioRtCW" available for you to use. Download the appropriate version of "ioRtCW" that you need for you operating system, install it and enjoy a very up-to-date version of our beloved "Return to Castle Wolfenstein".
