The Macintosh version of Wolfenstein 3D has different graphics, sound, music and levels compared to the DOS version. This is a port of the Macintosh version to DOS. There are two versions: a 32-bit version and a 16-bit version.
The 32-bit version requires a 386 CPU and supports PC Speaker sound effects, and digital sound effects through a Sound Blaster. Music is supported via Adlib, Sound Blaster, Pro Audio Spectrum, General MIDI, Wave Blaster and Sound Canvas.
The 16-bit version requires a 286 CPU and 2084 kB of XMS memory. It only supports PC Speaker sound effects and no music. 64 kB of EMS memory is used, if available, as an upper memory block to store data.
Both versions require a VGA graphics card.
It's based on the original Macintosh Wolfenstein 3D source release.

MacWolf for DOS comes with a First Encounter WAD file called MACWOLF1.WAD.
To create WAD files for the Second and Third Encounter,
place the Wolfenstein 3D data files in AppleDouble, MacBinary or Resource format in wad/src/main/resources/input and
run mvn verify in the wad directory.
This will generate the files MACWOLF2.WAD and MW3E1.WAD to MW3E6.WAD.
Put custom level packs in the same input directory to generate MAPS1.WAD, MAPS2.WAD, et cetera.
