Hey guys!

It's been a year since our 20th RTCW anniversary event... Unbelievable. Time flies so fast!
What's the next year holds for RealRTCW?

[h2]Enemy Territory Expansions[/h2]



Enemy Territory Single-Player project which is created and maintained by my good friend Wiliiam is going to expand! New set of Enemy Terrioty maps single-player conversions is currently in development.

The first map coming in 2023 is Warbell.

Originally developed by Matthias 'McNite' Neiss, Warbell is simply one of the best occult-themed Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory maps ever released. It fits Return to Castle Wolfenstein so much that it almost feels like a continuation, and not just an excellent tribute.

Set after the events of Return to Castle Wolfenstein and the Central Europe campaign of Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory Single-Player & Cooperative, and based on the scenario of Warbell's remaster, the conversion's story will see B.J. Blazkowicz and his squad mates return, to face some familiar faces who somehow managed to come back from the grave!

[h2]But wait there is more![/h2]

If thats wasnt enough, William also released a three additional editions of his excellent ETSP mod. Let me walk you through it.

[h2]Giza Pyramid and Karsiah[/h2]

So, after release of RealRTCW 4.0 I decided to invest my time into mapping. Right now I am working at two maps set in North Africa - Giza Pyramid and Karsiah.

Giza Pyramid will allow you to explore the real layout of the famous Great Pyramid and find out what Paranormal Division is doing there.

Karsiah is a single-player conversion of the Enemy Territory map. It is set in the small north african town. I am still not sure if its gonna be a two maps tied by one storyline or separate maps, will see how it goes.

Oh and btw check out my W3D - E1M1 conversion! I made this as a simple mapping exercise.

[h3]Hey everyone![/h3]

Just a quick update this time.

Reworked and improved version of Vanilla Plus addon which is aimed to preserve the original game feel even more while still keeping RealRTCW 4.0 QOL improvements is now live on Steam!

Now all weapons have their "vanilla-like" model which contains far less polygons than RealRTCW HD models. But you can still disable new weapons thanks to the "Arsenal Type" switch in the game options.

In addition to that Vanilla Plus is no longer restricted from any of the RealRTCW QOL features. Achievements, custom maps, new enemies, reinforcements... Everything is compatible with it now.

All you need to do to activate Vanilla Plus is download DLC below.

!If you want to switch between HD version of RealRTCW and Vanilla Plus one - just uncheck/check Vanilla Plus DLC in the RealRTCW game properties on Steam.!

Almost forgot... There is another DLC i released a few days ago which makes German characters speak their native language. You can check that out too. Activation/deactivation process is the same as for Vanilla Plus.

[h3]Hey everyone![/h3]

I had some spare time recently and decided to upload a proper build of RTCW multiplayer right here on Steam!

Uploaded build features: -All ioRTCW features. Widescreen support, HQ sounds, etc.
-Proper Steam Pathing. MP build is able to find original game files with no issues.
-Omnibot integration. To play with bots, create your server and add bots through "Options" in-game menu.
-Local and Online play. You should be able to join most of the existing servers too(though most of them are barely populated). Or you can host your own. Dont forget to forward your ports or use local network emulators like GameRanger to allow your friends to join in.

This build doesnt include any HD content, to keep 100% compatibility with existing servers, since most of them are sv_pure 1.

So,overall it is a pretty barebones build of vanilla multiplayer based on ioRTCW source port.

I might work a little bit more on it later, but for now it is what it is.

!Original RTCW must be installed in order to play MP! (Its the same requirement as for coop and sp)
