Clanbase - Game Over
For those unfamiliar with the name: ClanBase once was a cool site to visit if you were an online gamer. With cups and ladders hosted for games such as the RtCW, ET, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Counter-Strike and Call of Duty series, a teenager really had quite some options for multiplayer entertainment. Heck, we even had LAN finals for our renowned EuroCups.

Those days are far behind us and as it stands today, the company that owns the ClanBase site - GGL - is unable to cover the costs required to run the website. Moreover, lately the owners of the site do not wish to cooperate with the voluntary crew, keeping everybody in the dark and thus showing complete disrespect to people who spend many hours a day trying to make our tournaments a success.

The website has now been offline for more than three weeks due to an unpaid bill. No action is being taken by the owner to get the website back online. Having no vision for the future, we - the ClanBase Crew - have lost our last hopes about ClanBase ever coming back online, and unfortunately we announce the end of a great era.

The history and the truth as the ClanBase Crew sees it

A US-based company called Global Gaming League (Professional Interactive Entertainment, Inc.) noticed the success of the site and bought it from the original owners in December of 2004. They had financial backing for server hosting and our tournaments. Things were going well until in 2007 CB suffered its first heart attack when GGL couldn’t deliver the prize money they put up for the EuroCup. This can be marked as the start of our downfall.

The CB Crew has always been made up of volunteers with the majority being just teenagers. There was no possibility for us to come up with the money on our own that was promised, yet we were always the ones getting blamed. After all, it was our cup season and our name. It is no surprise that after this blow there was no way for us to host another season with the promise of any kind of prize until the debt was settled with the previous winners.

To this day, GGL owes around €24,000 in prize money which will never be settled. The other sites who were in the same gaming business of course had no problems hosting their tournaments however they wanted. ClanBase, however, lost a great deal of its reputation along with some top teams who never got their winnings.

As time went by the site also started to decay. After the takeover we had paid developers who tried to put the code in shape. There were some noteworthy developments such as the seasonal and invitational ladders, but after the first test run we couldn’t get the necessary changes implemented - because GGL stopped paying the developers.

Money. The source of all evil.

GGL started moving the servers between hosts (RackSpace, Amazon, GreenQloud) to save costs, and to avoid further missed payments. This appeared in the news a few times when providers came out with how they were lied to. We also lost the ability to upload files anything other than demos. Fortunately, a Crew member had the means to help out.

Funding continued to dry up. After the first wave of cuts where we lost the two developers and a head admin, things cooled down for a while. Recently, a general system administrator was cut off which got interesting at one point when CB suffered a denial of service attack to which the host (GreenQloud) responded with moving the servers to a different IP address. However, the domain name had to be updated as well to point to the new address. Since our sysadmin was not getting paid, he refused to perform this, essentially holding the site hostage for a while.

So how do we get money? The site had ads for a while which obviously was not enough. We may have been naive thinking that upping the quality of the site would be a good move, which was promised more times we bother to count. GGL thought otherwise. In fact, many of the cool features our gamers would have loved to see on the website were never implemented - because "CBv2” was supposedly just around the corner.

Their first bold move was trying to get adult banners on CB - a website that was home for thousands of teenagers. The Crew was shocked and appalled by this. Fortunately, we managed to get our voice through (by threatening to go on strike) - but we also lost several valuable crew members who had enough of the poor conditions and bad decisionmaking.

Next to adult material, gambling can also be a good source of income. The Poker and Betting ladders were introduced. It is doubtful that much money was ever made of this, at least nobody said otherwise. The only thing certain is that these projects never got off the ground.

A poor attempt was also made to gather money in the form of offering VIP membership. Nobody took this very seriously and as expected, nobody bothered to opt in after a while. The only benefit to having VIP was the ability to get rid of some of the ads. Perhaps a regular donation system would’ve been more useful.

By the end of August 2013, yet another problem surfaced: the money ran out for the hosting. This is when CB started to go down every month when the time came to pay for the next 30 days.

Of course we tried contacting GGL through our manager who was in charge of handling communications. As you may have guessed by now, he also failed to receive his payment for a while and a company owing money to you, and who knows how many others, is not in a hurry to get back to you.

The ClanBase management tried to directly contact the GGL founder and president Ted Owen (since everyone else left), with very little success. Whenever we got a response it usually consisted of no more than a few words.

The last we heard from him, he stated that "GGL will move on without ClanBase, and besides, why did the Crew never put any money in it?”

Mr. Owen, the Crew put time in it. A lot of time... for free. Every day. And to clarify, nobody has ever reached out to us to ask for any kind of financial aid. Not that we would’ve ever agreed to anything if the money had to go through GGL as that would’ve resulted in the money never reaching its intended destination.

Ultimately, we understand that our users would have expected us to come out with the truth sooner. It has taken us three weeks to make a public statement - but the only reason it took so long is that we were trying to not lose the hope and to reach out to mr. Owen. Unfortunately, our last request (or offer) to him - to release the ClanBase site to the crew for us to be able to continue running it on our own, without the GGL - was not welcomed.

It is thus our sad duty to inform you that ClanBase is gone. We would like to sincerely thank over a thousand admins working on the website over the past 15 years of ClanBase’s existence. And an even bigger thanks goes out to all the players who supported us over the years and who did not lose faith no matter what.

This writing has not come easily because ClanBase has been a big part of our lives, and we definitely did not want to see it end like this.

Clanbase - Game Over
Die Clanbase war einmal eine sehr coole Website für Online- Gamer, mit Cups und Ligen für Spiele wie RtCW, ET, Quake, Unreal Tournament, Counter-Strike und der Call of Duty-Serie.

Diese glorreichen Tage sind nun hinter uns, und heute steht es um die Clanbase Website sehr schlecht - wir sind nicht mehr in der Lage, die erforderlichen kosten der Website zu decken.

Die Website war offline für mehr als drei Wochen, wegen einer unbezahlten Rechnung. Keine Aktion wird vom Eigentümer übernommen, um die Website wieder online zu bekommen. Da sie keine Vision für die Zukunft mehr hat. Wir - die Clanbase Crew - haben unsere letzten Hoffnungen die Clanbase jemals wieder online kommen jetzt endgültig verloren, und müssen leider das Ende einer großen Clanbase-Ära verkünden.

Reminiscence - a Return to Castle Wolfenstein movie - Made by Bully.
Bully, one of the very well known and great RtCW players says goodbye to the Community with a last Movie. The Movie shows great frags and sad moments (the emptiness)

Starring (in order of appearance)
Fro, Sipperi, Sirkka, Jam, Bully, Kris, Mirage

Quote: I still had a decent amount of footage lying around from people that had previously sent it to me with the purpose of turning it into a movie. Due to personal reasons I've not had the time nor motivation to do this. However the thought of making this movie never slipped my mind. It's way overdue but it's finally here. RtCW has been a big part of my life, so I wished to give it one last farewell.

It's been a pleasure RtCW.

Axis Skin mod - Return to Return to Castle Wolfenstein (1.0) by SidneyReilly1925

Description:
While waiting for the latest instalment of Wolfenstein, why not return to Return to Castle Wolfenstein with all new skins found only in the RtRtCW mod?
These uniforms are as historically accurate as possible according to Osprey Publishing's military history books amd feature units from the heer, kriegsmarine, luftwaffe police, Afrika Corps and SS. This mod also occasionally draws on NPC designs in Wolfenstein 3D to maintain the spirit of that groundbreaking game.
This skins are alterations of the original designs in Return to Castle Wolfenstein.

Mission 1: Ominous Rumors (Escape!, Castle Keep, Tram Ride)
Nazis changed to early '30s hybrid stormtroopers (inspired by brown Wolfenstein 3D guards) and Allgemeine SS under the command of
party group leaders. Village-based soldiers wear the more practical Waffen SS fatigues, and SS officer uniforms denote Ahnenerbe membership. Hans has been promoted from implausibly overweight SS soldier to local Gauleiter.

Mission 2: Dark Secret (Catacombs, Crypt, The Defiled Church, Tomb)
Carries over a weathered version of Soldiers' fatigues from previous level. Other soldiers' gear and Helga's blouse denotes Ahnenerbe membership. Zemph wears a more ominous leather coat.

Mission 3: Weapons of Vengeance (Forest Compound, Rocket Base, Radar Installation, Air Base Assault) Soldiers and officers patrolling the forest installation belong exclusively to regular army. Afrika Korps guard the rocket facility itself (for variety's sake -- maybe they've been assigned to guarding the biological compounds found in north Africa?). The Radar installation now under the control of the Reich Security Main Office so expect to see RSHA staff and Gestapo officers under the command of SS Oberfuhrers. Officers and soldiers of the Luftwaffe police (inspired by blue Wolfenstein 3D SS) now keep watch over the air base.

Mission 4: Deadly Designs (Kugelstadt, The Bombed Factory, The Trainyards, Secret Weapons Facility) The regular army patrols Kugelstadt backed up by SS paratroopers wearing Fallschirmjager camo. The submarine base is guarded by Kriegsmarine soldiers. Deathshead has a new coat.

Mission 5: Deathshead's Playground (Ice Station Norway, X-labs, Super Soldier) The only level to feature foreign SS units with "Den Norske Legion" patrolling inside and outside the Norwegian station. Scientists wear white lab coats.

Mission 6: Return Engagement (Bramburg Dam, Paderborn Village, Chateau Schufstaffel, Unhallowed Ground) Orpo squads and Deathshead's personal squad of SS paratroopers in Fallschirmjager camo block the way through the dam to Paderborn village. Be careful not to attract the attention the dreaded "Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler" in your mission to assassinate the Ahnenerbe Gruppenfuhrers, and dont forget to take out a high-value decoy on your way through (twin-gattling guns not supplied).

Mission 7: Operation Resurrection (The Dig, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Heinrich) Soldiers and officers wear Waffen-SS smocks at dig site. Inside the castle under seige, the Fallschirmjager under Deathshead's command look even worse for wear (oblivious to pain thanks to his experiments). Final cutscene has a more accurate rendering of Himmler, in this case wearing his summer tunic (inspired by white Wolfenstein 3D officers).

Other: As many NPCs as possible have had their faces rendered differently for the sake of variety.
INSTALLATION: Place the PK3 file "rtrtcw" in Return to Castle Wolfenstein's "Main" folder. To uninstall delete PK3 file "rtrtcw".

New Knightmare Patch Released for Rtcw SP - 1.42d!

This is a simple patch that fixes the startup crash caused by newer video drivers, (erroneously attributed to Windows 7).
It adds fully native widescreen support. Support for "nVidia Surround" and "ATI Eyefinity",  via in-menu custom video modes and a few other fixes and tweaks. It also fixes the crash at the map level transition from RtCW SP map "Dam" to RtCW SP map "Paderborn", (aka village2).
It is based on the v1.41 source released by John Carmack in September 2010. However, as this release is not made or supported by Gray Matter, id Software, Activision or Bethesda, please don't ask them for support with this.

# Installation Instructions
You should back up the "WolfSP.exe", "cgamex86.dll", "qagamex86.dll" and "uix86.dll" files in your Return to Castle Wolfenstein folder before installing this.
This can be done simply by making a subfolder called "backup" or "old" and moving the above files there. Once you have done this, just extract the download into your Return to Castle Wolfenstein folder.

# Please Note
This patch includes modified menu files in the "sp_pak4.pk3" file.  These files were edited to add the new "scralign" attribute to various objects, to change how they scale in widescreen video modes.  "System.menu" and "ingame_system.menu" were also edited to add the new video modes, anisotropic filtering support and hardware gamma support.
Mods or map packs which change the menu files will need to be edited to replicate these changes, or they won't work correctly with this patch.

Return to Castle Wolfenstein - Single-player Mission Horrors of Hell

Storyline
The SS Paranormal Division has a lab inside what seems to be a normal military facility. Under the lab is a crypt, where the SS Paranormal Division is taking valuable treasure and artifacts. Since the Paranormal Division is involved, Allied forces are worried that they may have something sinister planned.

You must infiltrate the facility, but be very careful, the Germans won't let you into their facility without a fight. One of your comrades, Sgt. Pavel, will escort you to the facility. You will be on your own from there.
Can you survive all the hellish horrors that Return to Castle Wolfenstein will put your way? Ronboy's superb new RtCW SP mission will test you to your limits, as you frag against all the Horrors of Hell.
