"Greetings! I'd like to announce the forthcoming release of the conversion I have been working on, "Wolfenstein: The Halls of Stonehenge". It features the following:

  • enemies from "Blood" (fanatics, gargoyles, axe zombies, grim reapers)
  • new weapon visuals (pitchfork, shotgun, tommy gun, "auto shotgun")
  • edited status bar and BJ portrait (stubble added)
  • new sounds for most enemies etc.
  • 18 (tentative) levels
  • five new bosses
  • new title screen/ending art
  • lengthy intro story (separate file currently)
  • almost all new wall textures (from "Blood"), pickups, and other sprites
  • same old everything else

While vacationing in England, BJ is sent on a dangerous mission into previously undiscovered catacombs beneath the Stonehenge monument, in an effort to locate and destroy an inter-dimensional portal used by the ancient druids, and now the Nazis themselves...

Currently, the only planned coding change is the addition of the optional crosshair when firing, so I'm not sure yet if it's going to be a TC or an add on yet. Things are going well, though, and it should be ready for initial release soon. Thanks."

Here's an email from Ripper concerning 'ChaosEdit':

"In ten days, on May the 18th of 2003, it's time for a first beta test of our revolutionary Wolfenstein 3D editor ChaosEdit, which will also support other games based on this engine like Blake Stone and Corridor 7.

Here's a small feature list:

  • Normal map editing with up to 500 maps
  • 3D-Editor for adding details in the texture structure of the map (uses game graphics; you can run through your map and give walls textures with your mouse by clicking on the walls
  • Wall texture, sprite and graphics editor (including automatic color format conversions)
  • Font editor
  • Sound editor (including automatic sample and bit rate conversions to Wolf format)
  • Quit screen editor

The first beta test, we're about to start, will focus on the map editor part (including the 3D-Editor), so the other editors won't let you edit anything, but will let you view the stuff so far.

But we still need beta testers, who can support us with detailed bug reports of any bugs they find and give us suggestions to make things better.

So if you're interested, please send an email containing your system-configuration (video mode, screen size and color mode, Windows version, processor and memory (RAM)) to chaosware@lycos.de.

Thanks

Ripper"
