Fernito Posted July 29, 2013 Hey guys! In Wolf3D episode selection screen, there are images that represent each episode. Most of them are rather obvious, but I still can't figure out the one representing Ep. 5: Any idea of what could this be? 0 Share this post Link to post
Memfis Posted July 29, 2013 "Trail of the Madman" takes place in Castle Erlangen. B.J.'s goal is to find the maps and plans of the chemical war, guarded by Gretel Grosse, Hans' sister. Some deadly chemical gas? 0 Share this post Link to post

printz Posted July 29, 2013 Trail of the madman. Probably chewing gum stretched by someone's trailing on that road. Episode 4 and 6 pictures are far from obvious; what are they? 0 Share this post Link to post
kristus Posted July 29, 2013 Looks like wrinkled fabric to me. Maybe it's supposed to be a map or a blueprint or what have you. 0 Share this post Link to post
Da Werecat Posted July 29, 2013 Looks like a cheerful ghostie. I think it's a Rorschach test. 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted July 30, 2013 I always thought they were cheical fumes because I thought the big bad of those missions was a Chem Scientist. MAkes sense for the Gas Mask picture for Chapter 6 too 0 Share this post Link to post
Platinum Shell Posted July 30, 2013 To me it definitely looks like the specters you encounter in spear of destiny. 0 Share this post Link to post

Jayextee Posted July 30, 2013 Episode 6 is clearly a gimp mask, and the 'confrontation' in question is of Blow Job Blazkowicz confronting his inner fetishist. Clearly. 0 Share this post Link to post

Kirby Posted July 30, 2013 I remember trying to figure this out (what episode 4, 5 & 6's images represent) not too long ago using Google images. I found that for different platforms (or so it appears) Wolf3d had different artwork in places, one of them being the episode screens. Looking at this one is how I was able to tell what the episode 4 image really was. As for 5 & 6 I still don't fucking know. 6 seriously looks like a ghost to me, so I always imagined 5 being some process of materialization and 6 being the ghost fully materialized :P 0 Share this post Link to post
Reisal Posted July 30, 2013 Don't episodes 4, 5 and 6 come first chronologically before 1, 2 and 3? 0 Share this post Link to post
Gez Posted July 30, 2013 Mr. Chris said:Don't episodes 4, 5 and 6 come first chronologically before 1, 2 and 3? Yeah, and Spear of Destiny too. Trying to piece out the exact chronology of every episode (including the Formgen mission packs) is difficult, mostly because I reckon nobody at Id cared about that. 4 is a low-angle shot of a red barrel, adorned with a skull and crossbone, with yellow slime gooping down the lid. 5 is whatever the fuck that is. Noxious fumes seems most likely. 6 is a gas mask. C'm'on people. You see the big round filter snout thing, as well as the dark shaded goggles. 0 Share this post Link to post
BouncyTEM Posted July 30, 2013 I always say episode 5 as a [badly] drawn orbital view of Earth, to sort of imply that, well, the trail of the madman isn't yet known. Episode 6 always looks like a gas mask to me. and, yeah, Mr. Chris, 4, 5, and 6 come first. 0 Share this post Link to post
ASD Posted July 30, 2013 My childhood's false views of the pics: 1. a boat 2. blood drops / fireballs 3. some sort of wood pad / mud (didn't figure out the face) 4. a sail of a pirate ship. Most recently thought it was a curtain covering the dark secret. 5. a cloth 6. a robot face Good times) 0 Share this post Link to post
Clonehunter Posted July 31, 2013 Actually 5, if you look closely, is fumes in the shape of a skull and crossbones. Still think 6 is just a gas mask, though the gimp mask isn't a terrible theory. 0 Share this post Link to post
