Not to mention that "regular" duke nukem 3d is a DOS game...

This PND is pretty rough around the edges. It is SDL 800x480 streched and the controls are default. So you'll need to set them up yourself once you get in there. If you come up with a control scheme that works, let me know.

I assume he meant, advantages over running it in DOSBox.

Though now that I say that, I'm not even sure if it would have a playable speed?

Great work! I got a control setup working pretty good without nubs, here is how I have mine setup:

D-Pad: Left and Right to turn, Up and Down to move forward and backward.

A: Strafe, changes the turning on the D-Pad to strafe left and right when held down.

X: Open/Use

B: Crouch.

Y: Quick Duke kick.

L: Jump

R: Fire

1 - 9: The default setup here is to select weapons, and it works perfect

< and >: Previous / Next weapons, easy to access these keys quickly to change weapons instead of looking at the keypad numbers to change weapon.

There isn't really a need to look and down to aim at your enemies, thanks to auto-aim doing the work for you. Might need it for finding ways to go though, so I have them mapped to Q and E, just under the D-Pad so its easy to access and remember where they are.

Any ideas on how to get music working? Or is that a code issue?

AWESOME!

It's so quick and smooth at 500mhz! DosBox at 800mhz wasn't really playable. This is so much better for Duke. Thank you so much.

Many thanks to terminx for EDuke32 and mindlord for the awesome port and packaging!

Woohoo! DUKE3D!!!!!!!

Duke3D's source code was released and a direct port to use SDL and other cross platform libraries. This is "regular" Duke3D because it is basically the exact same game as the original Duke3D, just able to run on a modern system.
Over the years, a lot of bug fixes and enhancements were made. These branch out from "regular" Duke into their own projects, like EDuke.

Mindlord - you are a star!

MDave - awesome sounding control setup, cant wait to try all this when I get home!!

Any chance for the high resolution pack?

 

[jonlad1]

Holy sweet mother of god, portable Duke with decent controls!!!!!

Mindlord, you da bomb yo!!!

Thank you so much!!

 

[mindlord]

Any chance for the high resolution pack?

The HRP needs the OpenGL driver working. So, no, at least until someone converts the opengl driver to gl/es... and even there there's probably not enough ram laying around for that.

Oh, yes, OpenGL. I somehow wasn't thinking. Must have something to do with writing forum posts and working at the same time . Well, someone would've asked about it anyway, now there's an answer ready

 

[jonlad1]

Would the expansion pack work? Atomic Edition etc...

I didnt realise there are so many unofficial expansion packs.

So as long as there is a .grp file, it'll work?

 

[mindlord]

I used Atomic Edition to test with. And there's no reason why any .grp file shouldn't work as far as I can tell.

 

[terminx]

To get music to work, all you should need is SDL_mixer compiled with integrated Timidity and a working MIDI patchset.

 

[Bampt]

AFAIK Duke3D WIZ Port had problems with the intro video of the fourth episode in the expansion pack.

 

[craigix]

Is this ready for Pandora apps now?

 

[mindlord]

@Craigix, I'm planning on maybe getting music support in, giving the option of 640x480 non-stretched, and mapping the default control scheme to the one that Mdave suggests. I guess I could up it up there anyway in the meantime though.

 

[bzar]

Yes, music support . The good ol' grabbag.mid gets me into ass kicking mode

 

[craigix]

Cool. I'll wait until you're happy it's version 1.0.

 

[jonlad1]

Completely unrelated, Craig, did you get my PM?
