 Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me. |

Very impressive graphics Mauro - the low detail settings weren't completely pixelated like I expected, it gives a combination of full detail with some blockiness. I think in this version you've fixed some of the graphics glitches from the video? |

Thanks! Yes, I had fixed many things and made some perspective correction. For the next version, I guess I will speed up a little more applying some techniques used on the Doom from SNES version. I'm testing using the MODE 5 resolution now. Isn't exactly what I wanted from the beginning, because I wanted to maintain the PC resolution (320x200), but in any case, it doesn't make the game ugly, only faster. The main bottleneck is the raycast engine that makes a lot of looping routines for each wall slice. The textures aren't a problem because it processed with the firmware routine RESIZE_FAST, which is fast enough. I tested with no textures and the gain of performance is irrelevant. Anyway, the main challenge now is to make the game as fast as possible. |

I no longer follow politics - or news for that matter. There are so many double standards and weird choices regarding who can do what and when they can do it. I am sorry, but my stance is as follows: Sorry Germany - I cannot abide to your internal laws and regulations. I want to be able to live in the wild west when it comes to the Maximite. The future will get you anyway, for things you cannot fathom at this point in time. I can make a movie right now, and take great care in ensuring that 15 % of the cast is muslim to represent the current demographic of the country. In 30 years that movie will be labeled racist, due to an increase in the muslim demographic. As such, the creator of the movie will cancelled due to him trying to keep the mentioned citiziens out of the movie, even though he tried to emulate the demograhic at that point in time. I took my masters' degree in biotechnology, but ended up working in verification and validation of processes, machines and software. I work with SO many regulations and audits. I do not wish for this to happen in my spare time. Keep Wolfenstein as it is. The CMM is a retro computer for people wanting to go back in time, to some extent. Thanks for reading. |

Decoy I agree with what you said. My Great-grandfather went from Paris to Quebec. They stayed there until all eight kids learned to read and write English. He said they will be Americans. Not French-American but AMERICANS and find the life he wanted for his family. A life time later for him he stopped by our home and I was playing Wolfenstein and asked if he could have a go at it. While playing he told me of his time fighting the Nazis Evil. The game reminded him of the proud men, women and children that fought along side him and the many the lost so much. There was lot more of him telling me of those times as they stayed so he could finish the game. So MauroXavier any way two versions can be done the current remake and one that is non nazis. Maybe capturing butterfly's in a bubble to save them and in the end are freed out side the score will be number of butterfly's freed times something maybe the items picked up.

If I'm not wrong, Wolfenstein 3D was removed from the German Ban List in 2018 because games now are considered as art, and in this term, the theme can be used. But anyway, I still thinking about it, but I must confess that I like a lot the original concept of the game. Decoy, Quazee137, thanks to both for your opinion. |

Quazee137, good one with the butterflies. But at some point that will be wrong too. I must protest this. Poppy manages - within a span of a few hours - to call the game a piece of sh*t, then stating the huge problem Germany will have with the game (that a private individual in Brazil is remaking), then moving on with the law-stuff in Germany, and suggesting that "...the easiest way is to avoid any useless provocation" Then finally finishing the project off by suggesting that the violence in the game will need to go too. I am making a non-pinball machine in my arcade-room. It has an almost naked lady on the playfield. I hope somebody gets offended by it some day. If not, I will make sure that somebody will get offended by the next one - either by employing ultra-violence or porn. I guess it depends on what you think life should be. I prefer boxing over ballet. Thanks for your time. |

Yes, good idea - one version for people who can't live without Nazi stuff, and a second one with "normal" monsters or zombies. Maybe like Doom. Group-related misanthropy is not a game! I don't need it on my computer or in my mind. In a world in which Nazis rule, the TBS would not exist. I want to live in a world of mutual respect and tolerance - with as little government regulations as possible - like most of the members here. Just my 2c  Michael |

"Group-related misanthropy is not a game! I don't need it on my computer or in my mind." Should that be taken as a "no" to Nazi-stuff in the game? Also, "Yes, good idea - one version for people who can't live without Nazi stuff" The sentence attempts to paint people wanting the original content in a bad light, no? Well, my final thought will be this: Mauro should make the game he wants. In my personal opinion, if he wants to remove such important parts of the game - then he should find another game to make. Thanks! Edited 2020-07-22 07:46 by Decoy |

I personally don't need it on my computer or in my mind. Does it do that? I also think it's Mauro's decision. Maybe our discussion helped to see more aspects. Michael |

Probably I will maintain Wolfenstein 3D with two versions and two distinct repositories on github understanding that sensible people about the theme will not want to download a game contaminated with nazi's arts even on different folders. I'm searching now for American voices to the soldiers to the censured version. For me, keep two versions isn't a problem, what really laborious is to make two videos on my Youtube channel for each version... Sometimes make only one video is already somewhat laborious as I don't have a capture card and to give a minimal quality to the film, adjust the monitor, and making some adjusts to the video can be a tedious task (I prefer to use my time developing instead making videos). |

Hi Mauro, thank you for considering this. I am sorry that you have more work. I hope you know that I appreciate your work a lot.  Michael |
