Wolf4SDL Wolfenstein 3D port using libSDL.

Wolf4SDL is an open-source port of id Software's classic first-person shooter Wolfenstein 3D to the cross-plattform multimedia library "Simple DirectMedia Layer (SDL)" (http://www.libsdl.org). It is meant to keep the original feel while providing several improvements:

* Cross-plattform:
o Linux
o BSD variants
o Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista (32 and 64 bit)
o KallistiOS (used for Dreamcast)
Only little endian platforms like x86, ARM and SH-4 are supported, yet.
* AdLib sounds and music (includes the OPL2 emulator from MAME).
* Multichannel digitized sounds.
* Higher screen resolutions (multiples of 320x200 or 320x240).
* Also fully playable with only a game controller.
* Includes several optional enhancements for mod development.

The following versions of Wolfenstein 3D data files are currently supported by the source code:

* Wolfenstein 3D v1.0, v1.1, v1.2, v1.4 shareware
* Wolfenstein 3D v1.1, v1.4 full Apogee
* Wolfenstein 3D v1.4 full GT/ID/Activision
* Spear of Destiny demo, full, and mission disks

License: free

Additional System Requirements:

* Original game data files
* libSDL
* libSDL_Mixer
