First the good news! Wolfcool is finally here! Now for the bad news, * I have recently discovered that this vswap.wl1 file will not work with Wolf3d v1.4! So if you want me to upload a older version of Wolf3d like v1.0 with a set of modified maps that I got from a friend then let me know. If you are a frequent visitor to wuarchive.wustl.edu, then you can leave a message in the request directory of pub/msdos_uploads/requests. The next part is the same old wolfcool.txt file with a some corrections if you want to read it. ----------------------------------------------------------------- 9-10-93 DUE TO CIRCUMSTANCES BEYOND MY CONTROL, THIS FILE SHOULD BE READY SOMETIME NEXT WEEK SO IF YOU ARE INTERESTED PLEASE KEEP A EYE OUT FOR IT! 9-13-93 TO 9-17-93. By now you have probably heard of the bad news. The release of Doom has been delayed until December. What to do? What to do? Well, here's the answer for you shareware Wolf3D diehards! I have made numerous changes to the vswap.wl1! (* NOTE: I have only tested this file with Wolf3d v1.0 and Wolf3d v1.1, so if there are any incompatibilities with version 1.3, 1.4, or later, don't blame me!) WALLS: - the walls of the original has been replaced by: walls from Spear of Destiny (pebble, marble, new Hitler picture, slimy, etc. type walls) - some of the walls now feature pictures of (SF2) Guile and Mel Bison - a few of the walls have been replaced by pictures of HK popstars (For example, Rosamund Kwan, Ellen Chan, Leslie Cheung, Andy Lau, etc.) - for some fun, I also replaced some walls with pictures of Batman, the Joker, Max Headroom, Bud girls, etc. - the boring cyan steel doors have been replaced by robotic type looking doors that look like doors found on Cybertron (Transformer's series) OBJECTS: - many of the objects like the tables and skeleton cages have been replaced by X-Wing fighters, Storm troopers, stereos, robots, white ss guards, Fast Lane Jones from the popular Sierra game series, a doctor, hitler robot (note the graphics suck on this one and the original boss guard (Hans) because I have no more time to repaint it due to my upcoming midterm exams), and many other humorous stuff. NOTE: I would like to take this time to thank the person who uploaded WOLF316.ZIP because I imported about 25% of my replacement graphics for the objects from this file GUARDS: - the boring old nazi guard has been replaced with a robot in military uniform that spits fire - the original blue boss guard (Hans) has been replaced with a big fat brown uniformed SS guard that shoots at you with two different types of machine guns - for the above two types of guards their death is now represented with a pile of bones instead of a corpse NOTE: I would like to take this time to thank the person who uploaded WOLF316.ZIP because I imported the graphics for this character from his file. - the dog and the blue guard has been replaced with AWESOME and BLOODY graphics from the GRAPHICS PATCH 3dgory.zip NOTE: I would like to thank this guy too because his graphics were way cool! WEAPONS: - the big machine gun has been replaced with a laser rifle * Remember to rename your original "vswap.wl1" file to another name like "oldvswap.wl1" before copying this file to your directory if you want to be able to save your old Wolf graphics for some reason.
