  Anyone else plays RTCW?
 
gamersfiles.net/images2/wallpaper_return_to_castle_wolfenstein_04_1600.png

I've just started up again with RTCW, which is pretty fun to see theres still people playing it.. even though it's pretty dead still yet, but theres been some cups and tournys around lately, which is good publicity.. but it's not everything.

I was thinking of starting a project related to RTCW, trying to make it more active than it is now. Launch more servers, give out keys etctra. I wonder if anyone find this interesting, any ideas how we could do this? Launching cups is one part, it shows people's interest, but there has to be something more to get this working. Advertising it out more to people, selling key's cheap (CHEAP!) would be a step in the right direction.. making a game trailer for it like "Wolfenstein 2009" would also give a point.

When I write this it sounds so simple and easy to do, but I know there's a lot of work behind it, to get a game active again that's been forgotten by the most is hard.

In my own words, how I would describe "RTCW", I would say it's just perfect, I know it's a old game, but it really bites you, makes you wanna play a bit more of it each day, I think it brings you back to the WW2 and it's glory days, I really enjoyed playing it ages ago I find it a bit better than Enemy Territory, mostly because of certain effects.. but you can't script that much at 1.0, like flash, blood flash, etctra. But there's still add ons for it, red dot for example, hit sounds for Sandmod, and such things..


GamersFiles.net needs a new guy for their mangement, that we'll take care of our Return to Castle Wolfenstein section, a person who plays it, whose active in it, knows cvars, and someone who tries to be active after school, and sometimes at weekends - we need YOU for this.

Hello,
Congratulations to you Awir (seriously). I'm with you and I'll be supporting your project until the success. I'm really happy for you.

Well,
all that you said is alright, everything is fine and doneable.

About the game,
Some of you may know or may not know that PunkBuster got offically released to RTCW 1.0, everything really works fine. And also more CVARs addedd with this Pb patch (for example: Bloodflash, reinforcement respawn time, speedometer, 256 colors, and such more things).

About the CD-keys, we shouldn't really sell them original CD-keys, I'd suggest to use cracked servers so I mean let's make RTCW totally free, so nobody has to pay for some number to play. Like the GNU/Linux... Totally free-to-play game. I think it can make more people to play RTCW, then make ads on forums, websites etc, for example "RTCW comes active once again, support us now, more infos at gamersfiles.net etc. etc. etc...".

If you need any help from me then you can connect me via MSN, e-mail, skype, xfire, just send me a PM and I'll give you all you want.

Im happy someone is supporting! Ive actually got a better idea than cracked.. if WE contact ID Software, and we sit down and discuss this question of matter, i'm pretty sure that we both can come with a conclusion, on how to distribute the game legaly, I mean.. no one buys this game anymore, and barely anyone plays it. BUT if we could get successfully contact with them, we tell them what we want, how it's done, and how to bring a old game from the grave, back to it's glory days, then i'm sure they could offer a free download version of the game (as it was before, it was free, but since it became so popular they started selling it) if they don't earn any money on Return to Castle Wolfenstein anymore, i'm kinda sure that with the right talk, we could manage to get this game released for free again.. if it now will work..

I am IN.

I started to play RTCW with FritzBot, because I don't have internet.

I really like the gameplay. When I get my internet again I will definitly start play it online Wink

First post so- Hey all! Smile

Now to subject, i just stumble upon this forum and it's kinda an old thread but anyway, to explain few things.

1st:
Rtcw doesn't require cd key, it's been like that since 2005/2006, you can connect on any server just by using clal-...or what ever key you google..- same rules apply for PB GUID, it's unique to each player but not key dependable. Players that patch 1.0 with PB, are able to play on any server, while 1.0 players can only play on servers that have PB disabled.

2nd:
Blood blending and stuff is for the most of the part fixed, for ones running PB patch- ofc non patched 1.0 still suffers from this issues, so just update and you're fine.

3rd:
As for actual game, you can freely download it on the internet, get or google a key, install it and then patch it. If you download already extracted one, make sure you don't get any hacks and other craps in, as there's no second change on 1.0 with PB enabled servers for the most of the part. If you need clean game, link can be arranged, as well as any help with client/server cvars in any 1.0 mod. Wink

Well that's mostly it, hope that helps Smile

If you're referring to rtcw, then no, it wasn't changed, they actually reduced it on ET but it wasn't tempered with on any 1.0 mod, it's default since ever.
