Duke Nukem 3D
« on: April 03, 2003, 12:46:22 AM »
I just find out that people from 3D Realms have been released source code for Duke Nukem 3D, so here is the link
http://www.3drealms.com/index.shtml
It will be great if somebody port it to Amiga ;))) Maybe I should post this as a news, but I guess this is good enough.

Have Fun!

later

Took a quick look at it and it's a x86 asm hell with bios crap. You won't see a port of this anytime soon.

Until someone feels like rewriting thousands of lines of x86 asm back to c, it won't happen. Probably it's best to wait for linux version and  port that.

Meanwhile play duke mac version on shapeshifter... ;-)

to Piru

I just took a look at the code and it looks like staight C.  Bunch .C and .h files, all of it can be compiled with gcc or g++ or any C compiler.  No .asm files at all.  I didn't completely look through the code but i dont see any assembly optimizations at all.

Some of the assembly is inlined in c and h files.

Lots of it is in BuildEngine and AudioLib (look into the zips).

>Duke Nukem 3D

There are over 4000 levels / maps for DN3D made by users and several "Total Conversion" levels.
What is your favourite levels?

Duke3d was ported to Linux, maybe that could be leveraged somehow?

I wonder what type of system it would take to run a Duke3d Amiga port? '060? but more likely a PPC. Maybe OS4 would be a more friendly platform to run it on....

Depends how optimised it gets. The engine is more complex than DOOM but less so than Quake.

Considering the original Mac port ran playably on an 040, my guess would be that a decent 040 with a gfx card should be enough for lower resolution (320X240) with the inner texturing code converted to asm.

The PC version ran fine on a P133 so I guess a PPC version should be fine - there was a PPC Mac version which ran fine on my mates 603 166 / 32Mb / 2Mb gfx. So my 603e 240 / 64 / 8Mb gfx should be OK...

I might download this code at some point - plenty of time to work on it after next week :-)

There was a partial port in 1997, engine only, that zipped along on a standard 040/25, AGA mode. With modern GFX cards, it could probably go on an 030 now.

Violent Levels

>All

I hate extremely violent levels (see link).
Duke Nukem 3D was critized because of such levels.
(Degrading, violence against women etc)
