Talk:Catacomb 3-D

message: It appears it's an entire series. I checked the credits of The Catacomb Abyss and it says
*Programming by Mike Maynard, Jim Row, and Nolan Martin
*Art Direction by Steve Maines
*Art Production by Steve Maines, Carol Ludden, Jerry Jones and Adrian Carmack
*Quality Assurance by Jim Weiler and Judi Mangham
*3D Imaging Effects by id Software
and also "copyright 1992 Softdisk, Inc."
After checking with http://www.classicgaming.com/catacomb/ and http://www.mobygames.com/game_group/sheet/gameGroupId,360/ it appears there are several games in the series.
: Catacomb - 2D view from above, by John Carmack. 1989-1990
: Catacomb II - sequel to Catacomb with the same engine.
: Catacomb 3d: A new dimension - 3D in 16 colour EGA
: Catacomb 3d: The Descent - same as above, but changed title screen and Nemesis is called Gremlinar instead.
: Catacomb Abyss - the first game in the Catacomb Fantasy Trilogy and the only in the trillogy released as shareware
: Catacomb Armageddon (re-released as Curse of the Catacombs) - sequel
: Catacomb Apocalypse (re-released as Terror of the Catacombs) - another sequel, now also with science fiction elements
: Catacomb Resurrection - an unrelated remake that never was finished.

Seems to be quite a lot of screenshots on this page. I think it could be trimmed down to 1-2 images. sik0fewl 02:50, 21 Feb 2004 (UTC)

message: The Jerry Jones links end up going to an entry for the guy who owns the Dallas Cowboys football team, but that's a different Jerry Jones from the one who worked for Softdisk and was involved in the Catacomb series game art.  If an entry is desirable for this Jerry Jones, then a disambiguation is needed; otherwise, the name shouldn't be linked.

replies: text: Agreed, rather no link than a wrong link. I changed the link to Jerry Jones (artist) which I think is the appropriate DAB word. Retodon8 16:57, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

message: This whole series' naming is pretty confusing, but shouldn't the article be called Catacomb 3-D with a dash? Both the Infobox screenshot and MobyGames's article on the game (also check the page on the whole series) seem to indicate that. Retodon8 16:57, 3 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Wolf3D originaly was also written with a dash, but nobody does that anymore these days. I think the title should be Catacomb series, just like Commander Keen series and Kroz series.Calvero2 23:55, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

message: The shareware version of Catacomb Abyss only ran in 320x200 4 color CGA mode. Did the full versions support CGA or did they require EGA? Would they run on a Tandy 1000 (or compatible systems such as a PCjr with a simple hardware hack) with its 320x200 16 color mode? That mode was functionally identical to low-res EGA but to use it, software had to be written (or patched) to use a different memory location.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bizzybody (talk • contribs) 11:28, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
