Wolfenstein

Game Information: Name: Wolfenstein Publisher: MacPlay Developer: id Mac Conversion: MacPlay Media: 2 3.5 disks HD Installation: 3.3megs		Just for kicks, let me present the system requirements: Requires any 256-color Macintosh with 2200K free memory. System 6.0.7 or later. 25Mhz or faster processor recommended. Accelerated for Power Macintosh.
Patches? None that I have found.	No ceiling textures and no floor textures, boy, those were the days weren't they? This classic hasn't aged quite as well as the others, but it's still good for a quick game every now and then. If you are looking to breathe some new life into it, try some of the easily found mods available all over the internet.
Getting it to run: Difficulty: Tedious Configuring iShock: Moderate	Another trip to installation Hell. First off you must find a floppy drive that will accept the older Mac disk format. About the only thing that will nowadays is an older Macintosh. Now, unless you are Billy Badass with the Mac, networking the two is not an option so that leaves the internet. About the only thing that I have found that will still work with 68k Macs, and is readily available is AOL. I hate AOL, but thank God my girlfriend is too stubborn to discontinue her account. So: * Insert the disk and email it to yourself; do that for both of them. * Once you have them both on your Mac, unstuff them one at a time. * Grab both of the Install files and put them in the same folder. * Select BOTH of them, and open it. What this will do is automatically install the game, going through both of the installers without asking you to insert the next disk(which will stop you dead in your tracks if you are on an iMac). To use the iShock you will have to go into the iShock manger and manually configure the pad to emulate the keyboard. The iShock has a problem with this game, or the game has the problem with the iShock, either way that's trouble for you. If you are like me, you like to have your strafe buttons on the shoulders, but the game doesn't like that too much. What it will do is, while strafing, if you try to turn your view you will begin going in circles, but only in one direction, the other will work. It's goofy, but workable. I have yet to find a way around it...
Learning from your own mistakes is an incredible thing, and after doing each and every one of these I think you will find much enlightenment in what I like to call: Tips to avoid feeling like a complete jackass: * Turn on the "Speed Governor"! Without it, the game's speed will BLIND you! * Set your monitor resolution to 640X480 as well as the in game resolution. * You can turn Quickdraw on or off, it makes no difference. For more support: Interplay is where you are supposed to get it, but they have none. Speaking of feeling like a jackass: When I bought this game used, for $1.99, it still had the retail sticker from Sears boasting a whopping $44.95!
