Zack's really working double time on his homebrew game, Wolfenstein 3D. And why not, it's certainly hot on demand, and would probably be selling like hotcakes - if indeed they were hotcakes and he did decide to sell them.

Wolfenstein 3D v4.0 - Image 1 


Anyhow, just after coming out with version 3.0, we're now given version 3.40. This one will probably get you bursting with excitement as this one carries support for Spear of Destiny. Yes, he's finally heeded your requests (see, the devs DO listen to your comments and feedback! So keep 'em comin'!), and since you've all been good children, you'll get the full and trial versions. Do take note, though, that you'll have to purchase its .SOD/ .sod files and put them in the Wolf3D folder in order to get the Full version running.

Greatness. There's also the analog support to look out for, as well as a partial re-write of the menu system - all this is to make is easier for your use, guys, so give a hearty thanks to Zack. For now, the saving/loading bug is still persistently there, but rest assured it's up next for v5.0. Anyhow, here are the new features and changes for Wolfenstein 3D v4.0:

Features :
  • "Spear Of Destiny" Full & Trial support -- New!
  • Full Sound Support (works great )
  • Full Music Support (works great )
  • Full Screen Support (as default, can be enlarged more however)
  • Full Speed
  • Runs at 222mhz (saves your battery)
  • PSP Slim Support
  • PSP Phat Support
  • Configurable Controls (See Read Me!)

Changes In This Version :
  • Added support for "Spear Of Destiny (full version) & "Spear Of Destiny (Trial Version). Both work great
  • Added Analog support. Analog support has been added to both the menu and ingame.
  • Exit/Quit bug fixed. Game no longer crashes your psp upon exit.
  • Re-wrote Parts of the menu code. Now is more console specific. Some pointless options removed, lots renamed.
  • Quit messages fixed. Remember been insuled every time you wanted to quit Wolf3d? well the messages have been fixed now, so you can be!
  • Change screen size option removed from menu, pointless. (why would you want it smaller?)
  • Code cleanup. (quite a bit of it )
  • Fixed typo in Game title on release, icon0 and pic1
  • Various other fixes/clean-ups.
The files are available for your downloading pleasure below. If you're scratching your head wondering why he decided to put each game in a separate zip file, that's because he says the way the game was made was meant for them to be separate. But he's looking into a way to allow you to select which game you want on boot, to make it easier.

Oh, and this works for both Phat and Slim, and should be able to run on any firmware in the GAME folder. Do check out the readme included for further details regarding this delectable brew, alright?

This is really really nice! But tell me, why only offer the full version of SoD and not the full version of Wolf? O_o

Ok, I've tried "Spear Of Destiny" Full Version, and it does work really nice. The only thing I'd like to ask about is that the sound (& music) is really soft on my PSP (I'm using a Fat with 4.01 M33), so I need to turn my volume up to the max just to hear it normally. This a bug?

Other than that, great work Zack, I really enjoy this!

Can't wait to try this new version out. I tried the previous release but the exit crash and lack of analog had me keep the original port loaded on my PSP.
