I am a Return to Castle Wolfenstein fan, and a beginner at mapping. I started mapping in 2009, and have really improved since then. I couldn't have improved without the help of Vicpas and many other great people, but mainly Vicpas. I started this Mod DB account so my maps could have another home, and also to keep Rtcw fans informed on my progress with any projects I'm working on. My interests include mapping, world war two games, and computers in general.

Report RSS Castle Wewelsburg is still alive - New OSA Intro Cutscene Screenshots and Mapping PC Changed!

Posted by on

IT'S ALIVE! After almost a year of no news, I finally have some for everyone to check out.

First of all, I want to apologize for the lack of news since last year, regarding the progress of Castle Wewelsburg. Rest assured that the project is not dead, but I have been busy since the 1 year anniversary update that I posted here in August of last year. This busyness is mostly due to my real life, which should always come first. I've also been busy with helping other mappers/modders test their work, like Vicpas with his Age of Horror project and WolfETPlayer with RealRTCW.

Thankfully, within the last week, I've finally found enough time to resume working on Castle Wewelsburg once again. Since I'm the main developer of this project, no progress has been taking place since last year. However, William (Titeuf-85) has been helping me with improving the levels of Castle Wewelsburg by fixing some of the level design/details himself, and also providing me with feedback.

Currently, the OSA intro cutscene is done, at least for the beta version of this mod. New screenshots have been posted showing the improvements that have been made to this map, and you can check those out by clicking on the images tab on the mod's page here: Moddb.com. When all levels are eventually finished, there will be a private beta testing phase that I will conduct with some testers of my choosing, as I did with Project Uran and Horrors of Hell years ago.

The second thing I want to mention is that my mapping PC has changed, and it's for the better! I'm now using my gaming PC for doing work on Castle Wewelsburg, which is the same PC that I play games on such as Rtcw. With a modern monitor and PC hardware being used on my gaming PC, now I can play games and work on Castle Wewelsburg all on the same PC. You can find a comparison of my mapping PC and my gaming PC on my website here: Mikebwolf.wixsite.com

Lastly, I would like to conclude this update by mentioning that Ronboy Productions is still hiring. Currently, the only people that are actually working on this mod are William (Titeuf-85) and me, so if you would like to contribute to the development of Castle Wewelsburg in any way, then don't hesitate to contact me or send me a message here on Mod DB.

That's all for this update. Thanks for your interest, and see you in the next update!

I say this often, but I'm really looking forward to Castle Wewelsburg!

I'm glad of what we came up with when it comes to the OSA office.
Hopefully, when I'm done with The Dark Army: Uprising V2, I'll have more time to help.

Btw, speaking of V2, one of the NPCs is going to mention something connected to your project and Castle Wewelsburg itself. This is a surprise tho, so I can't tell more atm.

Anyways, keep up the good work, and thx for keeping the game alive! ✌️

Thanks as always for your support, TITEUF-85. I'm also pleased with how the OSA office looks now; it's much better than what it originally was. It's actually for that reason why I asked you to help me with improving the level design for the first playable level, and hopefully the other levels in the future. =)
