Wolfenstein 3D V5.0! Its here! - Perfect Sound, Instant Save/Load & Lots More!!

So after a long time and a lot of work, Wolfenstein 3D V5.0 is finally here! :D

Incase you were wondering what happened to v4.9, well it was only released to beta tester Da1writer, and thus I skipped a public version and just went to 5.0.

I have made a hell of a lot of changes, fixes and other stuff to this version. I would also like to say a huge thanks to Chilly Willy Aka JF for all his help on the version too. Without him the sound and music especially wouldn't be like it is today.

Sound and Music are now both perfect. Just saying that is like Music to my ears (pun intended). Saving and loading is also now instant, and actually works. No more save corrupted messages Thanks Chilly Willy and WolfGL

Crashing bugs are now gone, I myself worked really hard on these and am pretty confident they are gone forever

TV out is pretty cool too

So enough blabbering here is the changelog :

So I really hope you all enjoy the new and final release that I Zack will be making of Wolf3D. I am delighted that It turned out to be as amazing as I wanted v5.0 to be, so you can now finally enjoy all versions of Wolf3D how they were meant to be played.

Enjoy! & Stay tuned for my next port. I may give you a clue as to what it is later :D

Note : If you use Wolf 3d Floppy version files, please use the patch below before you run the game or it wont work. Just copy and replace the files in the patch folder with the ones you have already.

ONLY DO THIS IF YOU USE THE FLOPPY VERSION FILES OF WOLF3D FULL VERSION. IT IS NOT NEEDED FOR ANY OTHER VERSION.

I have this for the 3DO it certainly looks different on that system. It's more powerful than the Supuer Nintendo, but less powerful than the Playstation, and it looked different

Finally, the Wolf3D that the PSP was always meant to have.

Looks awesome! Much better then 4.8 that's for sure!

Here are my only concerns:
The Gold Cross Treasures fail to produce any sound. (both on Wolf3D and Spear of destiny)
I was able to crash the entire PSP (had to hard reset it), on the first level of spear of destiny right in front of the elevator just by pressing left then right on the joystick. (tried but can't reproduce crash, must of been a really rare 1 time thing or something)

Also the music in the levels seems a tad bit to fast for me. D=

Other then that I must say it's amazing, I really wish you wouldent stop working on it though. You are doing such a great job with every release! Can't wait to see your next port!

Great job Zack! Looking forward to your next project. :)

Hi, Thanks.

Music definitely isn't too fast. We tested. It's just your used to hearing it being played too slow ;)

Very great work. I'm still amazed how long you've stayed with this. It's really great how far this has come ;)

Awesome man.
Still can't try it, but you're certainly working hard.

And we still give you props for your port in the readme ;)! Yeah, I can speak for Zack and say that this was something we wanted the psp community to have for a long time. Wolfenstein 3D, finally in it's full glory, the best wolfenstein port I can think of on any handheld! We tried our hardest to fix everything we could and make it as perfect as possible for everyone to enjoy. So even though this project comes to a close but the fun for the rest of y'all have just started with Wolfenstein 3D on PSP! Hope you all enjoy Wolfenstein and as Hardhat has mentioned, the way it always was meant to be :)! Hope to see everyone later when Zack and I (mostly Zack) start the next project, laterz :cool:!

Actually, they do make a sound, but it's quiet and very low pitched. It might be hard to hear on the built in speakers, especially if you are playing the music. The sound is clear on good speakers/headphones.

If you find a way to reproduce it, be sure to report it.

As Zack said, that's from listening to it at the wrong pace for so long. :D
