Talk:Wolfenstein 3D

I have in fact seen the name of this game's protagonist spelled several different ways; this, however, is the one currently in use on id's web page. Ryan W 21:12, 22 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * It's spelled Blazkowicz there now, as well as RTCW's official site. CODOR 18:00, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

Has it been confirmed by id that the Doomguy's face was based on B.J's? I know they look similar but if it hasn't been confirmed I don't think the article should say that the Doomguys face was based on it but still notice the similarity. -- TheDarkArchon 22:56, 31 March 2006 (UTC)


 * Look at the Blazkowicz face. Then look at the doomguy face on the left near the search. -Drlupinmario

I remember hearing (probably through an interview somewhere) that small parts of the Doom source code were copied from the Wolf3D source and largely unaltered - In other words, that there are parts of Wolf3D source still used in the Doom source. I also remember hearing the same for Doom to Quake. Does anybody know of a resource that might show examples of this re-used code between games, short of exhaustively searching all game sources? I think it'd be interesting to see what parts of Wolf3D lives on in Doom aside from homages in game content... (Zaximus, too lazy to log in) 193.38.170.65 17:31, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

My revert
While I'm learning that the enter key is not the apostrphe key, I'll say something about that. Shadowcaster is NOT based on the wolfenstein engine. It uses a few concepts but it's completly different. Along with the common misconception that Doom's engine is based on the shadowcaster engine this isn't true at all. It's a completly different engine --InsanityBringer 22:48, October 21, 2009 (UTC)
