Release list
Wolf3D x64 0.9.0
The first release of Wolf3D x64, a faithful port of id Software's Wolfenstein 3-D (1992) to 64-bit Windows and Linux, rebuilt from the original source code. This is a preview: everything is in, and the first players are the playtest. Version 1.0.0 follows once the bugs you find are fixed.
You need your own game files (version 1.4): the free shareware (episode 1, files ending .WL1) or the full version (six episodes, .WL6, as sold today on Steam or GOG). No game data is included.
Download
| System | Package |
|---|---|
| Windows 10 / 11, 64-bit | wolf3d-x64-0.9.0-windows-x64.zip: unzip, put your game files in data, double-click wolf3d.exe. The exe is not signed yet, so Windows may say "Windows protected your PC": More info, then Run anyway. |
| Linux 64-bit (Ubuntu 22.04 or newer and the like) | wolf3d-x64-0.9.0-linux-x64.tar.gz: needs SDL2 (sudo apt install libsdl2-2.0-0); unpack, put your game files in data, run ./wolf3d. |
Without files in data the game asks for the folder they are in, and remembers it. SHA256SUMS.txt has the checksums.
What is in it
- The original engine in 16.16 fixed point at 70 Hz: the original AI, doors, pushwalls, renderer and random numbers; all eight original demos replay in sync.
- The original screens: rating screen, title, credits, high scores and demos; the whole control panel with ten named save slots; Get Psyched, the intermission tally, victory, high score entry and the death cam.
- Sound as on a Sound Blaster Pro: digitized effects placed left and right, AdLib music and effects through an OPL2 emulator written for this port.
- Added, apart from the game logic: game pads (twin stick), the mouse in the menus, separate music and effects volume, fill-the-screen scaling with sharp pixels, fullscreen (F11), F8 / F9 quick save and load.
