Thanks, ukimalefu! If on the off-chance you come across anything, do let me know!

As it happens, the source code for Mac Wolfenstein 3D was released back in the day, just as it was for Marathon. But the Mac Wolf community was never as large as the Marathon community, and the restrictions placed on the Wolf source were a fair bit more stringent. If things had been just a little different, we might have ended up with a Wolf Aleph One. Hey, Greg Ewing even started down that route for a while with his ‘4th Encounter’ engine but, unfortunately, it didn’t get too far.

So, sadly, we never did get OS-X-compatible Wolfenstein.

I’m not sure if the source is online any more. I have a copy of it, though, along with the source for WolfEdit. I’m going to include both as part of my archive. Sadly, the sources are far too extensive a programming project for me to sensibly work on myself, at least right now. But I’m including them just on the slight chance that someone might want to take a stab at them in the future, or at least look through them out of curiosity. It’s a long-shot, but who knows? Why rule out the possibility!

For now, at least there’s MacenWolf for Windows folks!
