Duke Nukem 3D for amiga

[Xanxi]

Hello amiga dudes.

As Duke is about to come back at last, are you aware that there is an amiga port of the original duke 3D Atomic Edition available?



Look for it on Aminet.
The PC files needed are easily found on abandonware webpages.

On my A1260 AGA, i got terrible results though, and on my A4000 40/40 + RTG too, about 1FPS.
How can it be as Doom is perfect and Quake 1 almost good even on mere AGA?

What about you?

[Xanxi]

Don't know but the version from aminet is pretty recent (2006).

[Xanxi]

ha! I have recently installed this game. There are 2 ports for Amiga, one for 060 and one for WarpOS. While the PPC port is obviously the fastest, it has no sound support. The 68K version is pretty decent in 320x240 though, certainly playable.

What 060 setup do you have? AGA? RTG?
And are you talking about the 0.3 version from Aminet?

[Xanxi]

Wow, you guys must really enjoy torturing yourselves.  In this day and age, why would ANYONE want to play Duke Nukem at 320x200 resolution, let alone play it on a classic Amiga?  I'd rather stick a pencil in my eye.  You guys have way too much time on your hands.

Because it is an amiga forum and we intend to use our amiga computers.

Everything that a computer can do, i will try it on my amiga if i can.




By the way, does anyone have a floppy Mac version? I only find a CDROM version that is too big for me to handle.

I didn't know that it is possible to block someone on this forum.

@Oldboy:

i am very surprised by what you say. Would be able to make a youtube video of all this to show us all?
About Muredox, wouldn't that conflict with the MMulibs that i am already using? And would those 68060 libs run stable compared to the latest Phase 5 libs i am using?

[Xanxi]

I have just checked my A1200 and i have indeed installed the mmulibs at some point as i have mmu.library, MuMove4k (for Shapeshifter and Fusion) and MuFast something. But my 68060 lib is the latest phase 5 one.
I have tried to replace it with the 68060.library from the MuRedox package, as it is this libs that give the resource that MuRedox needs, but i only get a computer crash when booting the WB. I had to remove it, and then of course MuRedox complains of the missing something.ressource.
Seems i can't install that for now.

Yeah, I had similar issues when I was first trying to set it all up.  Apart from ensuring you are using the exact librarys specified etc, I'm pretty sure you have to use 'setpatch NOROMUPDATE'  If your using OS3.9 (and 3.5 possibly?).

Heres a quick youtube vid:

sorry for dodgy picture etc

Thanks for the vid. Indeed that looks quite playable!!
I have OS 3.1 but i think i am using the setpatch from 3.5. I will look into it.
