Duke Nukem 3d suped up (eDuke32)

vroom6sri · 04 June 2007, 09:54

I'd been trying to get DN3d working OK under Windows XP using Dosbox and XP's own compatability settings but with no real joy. Then I stumbled across this! It's great! Yes the not-true-3d aliens can look a bit silly at certain angles BUT the gameplay makes up for it. It runs so well and you can tweak it up to something quite tolerable. Go on... have a dabble.

http://hrp.duke4.net/download.php

man that's fecking sweet!!

vroom6sri · 04 June 2007, 19:36

Aren't they the same? I think eDuke runs HRP.

keropi · 04 June 2007, 21:03

ofcourse, get the HRP and it has an installer with both HRP and eDuke ... u only need the original GRP file...

mrbob2 · 04 June 2007, 21:49

im downloadin now. I have the atomic edition which runs on xp. What the difference with this? im lookin forward to it a LOT. Is it the orig duke 3d but with hi res gfx? sorry to sound dumb lol thanks

keropi · 04 June 2007, 21:53

no worries, it has high-res gfx, high resolutions (duh!) and full 3D models for 98% of enemies/weapons/etc... it really makes it shine, the good gets better!

mrbob2 · 04 June 2007, 22:14

just downloaded it. unzipped it, how do i start it lol? is everything there i need or do i have to find a wad file etc as there is no exe file with this download? thanks for your help

mrbob2 · 04 June 2007, 22:17

erm, forget that, just found the readme! lol

vroom6sri · 05 June 2007, 09:20

It's a great revamp to a classic game. I keep playing far longer than I had intended - I'll just get past this bit then save it, I'll just get past this bit then save it, etc, etc.!

The weapons are so good! Pipebombs are great fun. I'm gonna have to join their forums for some info I think. I noticed Monsiuer Keropi metions most of the "objects" have been 3D'd but mine are still 2d it seems!

Oh well... "come get some!".

s2325 · 05 June 2007, 09:58

Start game with proper shortcut if you want 3D models.

vroom6sri · 05 June 2007, 23:03

Ah... it all becomes clear. I was running the game from the correct NEW icon but I had not downloaded the HRP models, etc. so was just getting an enhanced version of all the originals.

This is great! I'm off to kick some alien arse.

TjLaZer · 06 June 2007, 09:28

This is awesome! Runs great, just get the Windows Installer and put your Duke3d.grp file in the root.

CU_AMiGA · 06 June 2007, 20:48

wos the requirements? would this run on a 1.4ghz celeron crap?

s2325 · 06 June 2007, 21:06

yes, without problems, but maybe turn off antialiasing

TikTok · 07 June 2007, 17:43

Ah, this is sweet. Haven't downloaded the hi-res pack yet but at least I can now play Duke3D under XP

vroom6sri · 07 June 2007, 19:48

TikTok - Download the High Res Pack NOW!!!!!!! You will not regret it!

Does anyone know if there is a similar project for good ole Doom? I have been using Doom Legacy for ages (which is excellent) but wondered if there was a version that has changed the game engine to use full 3d obejcts?

Shoonay · 07 June 2007, 19:52

Yes vroom6sri, there are for all doom-engined games (heretic/hexen)... i don't seem to recall the name - seen it on demonoid and underground-gamer lately, will search.

---=== EDITED ===---
Found the screenies:

The engine's name is Doomsday - think I found it, but no idea if you have an account on demonoid/u-g
