     Hi. Here is a collection of Wolfenstein info:


>>
Castle Wolfenstein & Beyond Castle Wolfenstein
 Feb 2000 update


Castle Wolfenstein

     Below is some info on game controls. Since they relate to Beyond
Castle Wolfenstein, I've placed a * by the ones which seem not to work
for the original Castle Wolfenstein


To Move, use Joystick or Keys

Q W E
A S D
Z X C


To Aim, use Keys or press "fire button" and use Joystick  (When using
the Joystick, you must release the button and stick at the same
time for the aim to take effect.)

I O P
K L ;
, . /


L       to shoot gun
<stick> to shoot gun press Joystick "second button"
H*      to holster gun
<stick> to holster gun press Joystick "fire button" with stick
          centered
:*      to switch weapons
B       to drop/pick up bomb
R       to reset bomb
1-5     to show pass
M*      to bribe guards
F       to use first aid kit
U       to use contents of open closet
CTRL-T  to use tool kit
CTRL-K  to use keys
RETURN  to list personal supplies
ESC     to end play and save (also to exit demo)


To Unlock a locked closet aim gun at closet and use number
  keys (0-9) for 3-digit combination

To Open a closet aim gun at closet and press SPACE

To Search dead guards stand over body and press SPACE

*To Drag dead guards stand near body, aim gun at body,
  and press SPACE



Notes: I'm not sure that you can not bribe guards in the original
  Wolf or that you do not find a knife (to use with the swap
  weapons command). I _think_ these were features added with
  Beyond Wolf.

--They are indeed only in BCW. (Jake Wildstrom)


One neat trick for dealing with tough SS guards (from Sean Williams
in Computist #8) is to quickly approach them, aim, and press "U" to
get their bullet-proof vests. This makes them much easier to kill.

Michael Procrass (in Computist #16) notes that holding the SPACE
bar (and pressing the Repeat key if you have one) will speed up
the countdown for Searches.

Andrew Lundsten (in Computist #19) observes that an SS guard on
your trail follows your exact path. This could be useful info.

Michael Cook (in Computist #47) warns to not kill an SS guard in
front of a Door. You will not be able to open the door because,
when you press SPACE, the program will think you want to Search
the guard. Also, you can zap an enemy you leave behind at a
double-wide exit by moving over one square in the room you enter
and, then, re-entering the room you just left (i.e. landing on top
of the enemy).

--God, how I abused this. You know that room right before Hitler's 
conference room, the one without interior walls and about 6 guards?
I whittled that one down to one guard at a desk without even drawing
my gun. :-)  (Jake Wildstrom)

Good practice: if the alarm goes off, get to the nearest circuit breaker
                and turn the alarm off.  If it jams, shoot at it.

                Try to find secret passages that lead from 1st floor to
                3rd floor (downstairs).
                --These don't always exist, and sometimes only go down one
                one floor.  (Jake Wildstrom)

                Don't switch weapons or reset the bomb timer amongst guards.
                --Switching weapons is fine, actually. Drawing a dagger
                though, even to open a door, pisses them off. Switch to gun 
                before opening doors in occupied rooms.  (Jake Wildstrom)

                On "Elite Strike Force Spy" or "Top Secret Operative"
                guards sitting at their desk will happily get up from
                their desk and trigger the alarm.  If you've bribed them
                or they've taken one of your passes you can use hold them
                up at their desk, holster you gun, quickly draw it out
                and by that time they'll have stood up from their desk.
                Now you can get your stuff back.

To find bomb:   The bomb is always located (I think) one screen right
                and two or three screens up.

One more thing, the map of the Castle is always the same so you can draw 
it and reuse as often as you like.

Hi,

        Had the same problem for years until I somehow discovered it.
It's control-shift-colon.  You should have your dagger in hand.  :)

Due to the success of Castle Wolfenstein a sequal
was made a bit later. It was called Beyond Wolfenstein.

This time there were guards with pass-codes, dogs and the goal
was to plant a bomb near Hitler and blow him off!

In BCW you could hold guys up and steal their stuff and then shoot them
while they still had their arms up.
