Hey guys! This is my newest project. With the help of TroubledImp and /Zac\, we have been constructing and preparing this project for all to see, and after 6 months (With plenty of breaks) we have this little teaser for you all.
BETA:
http://www.mediafire.com/?6x3z5cw1rik1eb1
The skulltag_data and actors will need to be used with the WAD
The [video] tag is deprecated, please use the [media] tag
STORY
The year is 1948, the world war that begun in 1939 rages on as the Nazis slowly grab hold of more land. Technology has ceased as all funding has used on military forces. On the other side, the Nazis have been inventing many new weapons and facilities way ahead of their time. Teleporters, plasma weapons, space stations and other kinds of futuristic equipment. The Allies have only managed to steal the plans for the teleporters, but that won't help them very much as it is simply not enough. This is where you come in.
You have been sent to be on purposely captured and revealed as an Allies spy, this will grant you access into the center of Germany. Granted you escape the prison, you have to find you're way to Castle Wolfenstein where Hitler himself has been housed. We don't know what happens after that, but you'll find a way out of the mess.
FEATURES
- Currently over 13 maps (More still to come!). It is longer than CoD!
- Many weapons ranging from shotguns to sniper rifles to shrink rays!
- Tiers of enemies that change as you make your way through the campaign, easily distinguishable from the colours of their uniforms.
- And much more.
Any ideas or suggestions are most welcome.
More screenshots coming soon.
- Fletto

Why do I even see jumpmaze here.
I also hope you got all credits for sprites/sounds/code/etc. in place, because I am secretly wild weasel in disguise.
Other than that, the maps actually look good enough. Goin to check it out whenever it will come.
Also, CoD1 has a total of about 26 maps(excluding the training), so no, you're not beating it yet.

Seriously, though, I see some of the Nazis! weapons in here (the Luger is JoeyTD's, the shotgun is MidoriMan's, the G43 is my own sprite) so I really hope you've got your credits in order.

Yeah, I'm a bit worried about your credits/permission.
That aside, I've been aching to be able to really go through a Nazi-style campaign outside of using WW's Nazis!, so I'm definitely gonna be keeping an eye on it.

Some of the weapon sprites are place holders for now, others are staying, I have organised a credits list somewhere in the mod folder which I will add when it is finished.
This really only applies to the weapons, as everything else will stay.

K this looks very promising. Reminds me a bit of that recent film "iron sky" (story wise). Looking forward to release.

Honestly, no download link in sight yet and the first thing everybody worries about is the credit list?

Your trailer-making skills are commendable
I'm actually looking forward to playing this, not often do I see sci-fi Nazi blastfests besides the Wolfenstein series

It was a bitch to make I can tell you that. Haha. There is a little bit of Iron Sky references in one of the campaigns. :P
Also I'm currently in the progress of changing some of the sprites.

This looks pretty cool, but I can already tell the maps look like they suffer from simplicity, for instance the part where they're jumping through the lava canyon looks like a very crude half-assed design. I'm not trying to knock this Wad or anything here I'm just pointing out what I'm seeing, some parts look pretty cool like the city other parts look pretty simple with colored lighting that makes it look better than what it is they're just rooms like you would see in a vanilla Wad.

I can't argue with that, I agree that some parts are pretty dull and lack any work to them. Reason for this is, I'm not sure how to detail it properly. I'll see what I can do to fix it just to look a little less dull. :)

I'm sold, but please take out the Jumpmaze bits. I fucking HATE Jumpmaze.

Looks very, very promising! Building to be an excellent coop wad, I would not be surprised if this ends up on FNF/SNS.
One notable thing: Find some unique muzzle flashes.

The jump maze parts can all be skipped. Now, for some people asking, the reason there is some 'jump maze' type stuff is due to, when we started all three of us decided on what themes we would put in the mod. I said Nazis, TroubledImp said Puzzles and traps, and /Zac\ said the future (If I recall correctly).
Also, finding (or creating) muzzle flashes is challenging at times.

Use the ones that your brother used in RGA2. Either photoshop them onto the gun sprite or just spawn them infront of the gun like he did.

Well, photoshopping wouldn't be too difficult. I'm kind of interested why some of you are concerned about them in the first place? Easily changeable though, but not until other stuff is done first.
