Nick,

Are there two versions of "Gate Crasher"?

Because I've seen screen caps (and you can find them on google) like 
this one:

...but then, there's the one at your latest site:

Notice how the one on your site, the walls aren't "bent" - whereas the 
first one the walls are "bent".

I know this is due to not multiplying the lengths by an inverse 
(sin/cos?) values of some sort (it's been a terribly long time since I 
coded a simple ray casting engine myself; but I know it's something like 
that)...

This would seem to indicate two versions - one "uncorrected" with the 
other properly rendered. What's the scoop?
