PLEASE READ: This is not a playable level for people to play, this is not a remake of the game. It’s a simply a portfolio piece with placeholder gameplay to help showcase the level
@Chris-ij3jx my friend, can you please check? I can access your website. I have been trying to download this since the morning. I am looking for a solution. I would be happy if you could help me.
Это великолепно, просто восхитительно, то что не соблюдена точность карты, а переработано под более реалистичную планировку замка - делает даже лучше, чем оригинал. Это не 10/10, это 1 000 000/10 !
I've played through RTCW on the PS2 countless times, so I really appreciate the quality improvements and attention to detail here. Not just the graphical enhancements, but the dark atmosphere, lighting and effects presented is very consistent with the original game. I love it.
Я периодически вспоминаю Вашу работу над этой игрой. Выглядит очень красиво. Хотелось бы, чтоб Вы полноценно сделали хотя бы 1 уровень и выложили в открытый доступ) Я бы просто бегал и любовался игрой моего детства в невероятном качестве))
This certainly looks very good! Would absolutyely love to see RTCW get full remake. The thing that bugged me here, the weapon arm have no outfit cuffs. Looks as if the the character is running around in a T-shirt 😀! Luger looks tiny. I do like some areas redone- so it's not a 100% copycat, but a revamp, which is fine! Although I loved winter environment over the castle more. But this looks great too! Anyway, I would give huge thumbs up for you for this work. You kept the atmosphere intact.
Bro this is really impressive! This game was my childhood, and I'm really glad to see it in a new light. As a programmer that dabbled a tiny bit in GameDev it seems like really impressive work (but perhaps I am biased due to the selected game). I am interested in making a UE5 remake of it at some point, so this is encouraging to see! All the best.
Looking good overall, but its a lil too dark. I can see you invested into weather - lighting, wet surfaces and windows. The location is now somewhere near the sea which I think is quite a welcoming change. You could've highlight more of the castle architecture if chosen opposite weather conditions and TOD while also adding and expanding more on it, but I guess this is off scope in general or for this specific stage. Were you making all of those assets yourself? I would consider you did the large stuff like architecture but I wonder what about small props like radios?
I think if you can get more indirect lighting or global illumination somehow, it would look better. There is some pitch black spaces, that makes it look less realistic. Also soft shadows if possible, that would also help a lot with the realism. Especially at the fireplace.
That is even better than the last time, Chris, very impressive indeed. I thought you'd given up on the project, I'm glad to see that's not the case. You've stayed faithful to the original game, the sounds, the atmosphere, the music and the new weapons also look great too. You should team-up with someone who can create the A.I. and make a genuinely playable level, it would be phenomenal. Thanks for all your hard work.
Holy fucking shit ! This remake of Return to Castle Wolfenstein is absolutely awesome ! The amount of detail, only in the first mission is almost frightening, I can already imagine how the rest of the game will look, if you decide to do it in the future of course. It's so well made that it's totally worth all the effort that has been put into it. Congratulations to all the people who participated in the remake ! You deserve a medal for such a great job !
Thanks for the kind words, i dont intend to remake anything else other than this level, its just a showcase of the level and nothing more really, i added some gameplay elements but only to help showcase the level. E.g the hand looks crap as its just a placeholder more than anything, it was just myself that made this but I did take some weapon sounds from real RTTW
I see, but it's really amazing, and this game really needs a great remake. A team from Poland, called Ress Project PL, were working on a total remake, but unfortunately they stopped their work. And RtCW is getting really old, even after all the improvements done to it those last 22 years, like RealRtCW 4.0, and Enemy Territory Single Player.
I have 2 questions for you 1. Wouldn't you like to approach Beshesda, show them what work you do and make a remake? It looks brilliant and you can see how much heart was put into it. A lot of people would buy a remake of "Return to Castle Wolfenstein" 2. Today there are a lot of indie games made by even one creator. Would you like to create your own game inspired by the Wolfenstein series? and releases, for example in early access? You have a very good talent. It would be a pity to waste it.
I'm not sure why they've not chosen to remake it, it's the most popular of the Wolfenstein series and everybody loves it. I'd love too but I just created this for my portfolio more than anything, I don't feel i'm "talented" enough to do anything like that. Projects like that take a lot of amazingly talented people.
@@Chris-ij3jx You are very talented, my friend. I wish I had half the skills as you do. I love your level designs and your attention to finer details without over cluttering the enviroment. :) Keep up the good work. I'm working on my own retro FPS game inspired by RtCW. Let the both of us give our best. Edit: Btw, I started working on mine after your first RtCW video went up and saw it, so you are certainly an inspiration for people.
8:42 I love how the light from the lightning shines through the window and shows all those rays of light. Good job with this recreation 😀 Have you heard of WolfPT? It's RTCW with path tracing, and I'm looking forward to playing it. RTCW is my favorite single player game from the 2000s.
Download Link Below! Motion Blur now removed (I didn't realise UE5 had it turned on by default). Made some other minor changes. Some area's look fairly dark which I think is due to RU-vid's poor video compression PLEASE NOTE: This is not a remake of the game and is just a demonstration/showcase of the level. This was created for a portfolio and I never intended to release it, but at the request of many here it is. Therefore, there is no gameplay, enemies etc as that was never the intended purpose.

@@Chris-ij3jx Thx for your quick answer ! But ther is no exe; after extraction there is only 2 directories: Movies and Packs. And Packs cannot be extracted.
amazing work.. how i miss this type of videogames u can t imagine; hope some day they will remake this wolfenstein, the medal of honor games, brothers in arms.. 🥹
That is a masterpiece! Thought you gave up progressing. You use "Ultra Dynamic Weather" for wet ground? How do you make the same textures wet and not, by creating second master material?
Yeah I used the UDS plugin (it’s to awesome not to) . I duplicated some materials and adjusted the UDS material functions for the wet weather effects e.g. puddles, material wetness etc
UE is just an engine, any talented team can make a great looking game. You could easily make AW2 on UE, Cyberpunk is now running on UE I believe and doesn’t look any different to CP2077 engine.
@@Chris-ij3jx CP2077 uses the inhouse REDengine. CD Projekt Red announced some time ago that they will be dropping it in favour of UE. This appears to be due to the lack of talented people available to maintain the engine. Whilst it is true that you could make AW2 in UE, or for that matter any other engine, it just won't look as good, which is why so many people are talking about it. It's easy to find coders but hard to find good coders which is why so many software houses use off the shelf engines.
Hello Chris, I want to try this game even if it is a test version. Is it possible to try the test phase? You know, if you upload fln to the internet, I can download it and play it. I have played this game for at least 10 years and I would like to try your work, from real rtcw to mods. Can you give me the link, I ask you to play it I liked this game very much. If you upload it to the internet and give me the link, you will make me very happy so that I can download it. I follow you. I have been a subscriber of your work from the beginning. Can you do me a favor?
And by the way, you sent me a link. When I click on the link, it says the file is not available. I am very interested in this project. I am looking forward to trying it. By the way, this was the project in the link you sent, wasn't it? The link did not work for me, unfortunately.
That’s a difficult question. Erm, I’d say to complete this it probably took me a around a year on and off. However, that’s just to complete the core of it. I spent another year or so making it nice. Because this was a project I wanted to learn from, I implemented lots of new things I’ve never done before. Even porting to UE5 was a pain as I had to learn some of its new features.
Hi my friend i cant download rtcw unreal engin5 on google drive im iranian and my internet is so poor pleas reupload on drop box and send me link for download i love your project and love you im wating
I don’t plan on it. The reason being is that this was just a piece for a portfolio, not an actual game. I never intended to release anything originally, it’s more a showcase of a level than a game, hence the focus on the level and lack of gameplay etc
@@Chris-ij3jx ok I see, I actually managed to work around it via Steam, added as non-Steam game and set -w3440 -h1440 as launch parameter and then pressed F11 to go full screen :)
@@Chris-ij3jx ahhh okay so maybe that's why I fell through the map once I went out upstairs and turned back and went back in. :) I had to restart the level as I could not get out.
@@Hopkins955 more than likely the case, possible due to the high resolution and wider screen size the camera can’t quite work out what and when to stream in parts of the level.
