Yes I know also because Corridor 7 use the Wolfenstein engine too. But sometimes I ask myself why Id Software still don´t give theyr games for free? I mean maybe there are still a few people who order the games but I mean they are so old and those ones which wanted to buy them already have them. It would be great because the games are forbidden in my country because of too much "brutality" (Doom) or using of Swastika and other nazi symbols (Wolfenstein). Yeah we have much stupid politicians here.

Some companies release their old games, others keep selling them, others do neither and let them slide into obscurity. Their property, their right to do as they please.

Nope, why would it supposed to run 'choppy'?
If I remember swell it even ran on my ol'386, nothing dosbox can't handle.
Runs really fine in dosbox 0.73 on my AMD3200+/XP.
After all, it's even lesser resource demanding then Doom or Blood, it's not even a 'full' 3D game.

Did you alter things in your dosbox config?

LOL, I fail. I was dumb and assumed that Dosbox would naturally up the cycles, but I had to do it manually. It runs smooth as hair gel now

This is the first FPS I ever played...I have fond memories of wasting days away on it. Yes, lots of FPS's are better... I'd rather play the original Wolfenstein 3D than this, but it sure was fun when I didn't know any better.
