DUKE NUKEM 3D
Links:
Its not really hacking, but it gives you a good understanding of how to modify the con files to better fit you're needs.
Basically, this site offers lots of levels, and some playing tips. There is a spot to get the shareware version of duke. Its a cool site, but some of the levels lack a lot. It also takes a while to load, but so does most of this site!!! Check it out.
Levels:
These are levels that I have collected from a lot of places, probably including the above sight. The difference here is, that I only put up the really good ones that are error free. I really hate when people put up a half finished level with so many errors it isn't even fun to play. Actually, that doesn't bug me, because I love to fix em, it's when they forget to mention the thing doesn't actually work that bugs me.
I realize that these things didn't work, they have to be zip files. So, here are the self extracting zip file formats. Just be sure to unzip them into the duk3d directory.
This one is cool. There are a few errors in it, but nothing serious, basically, if you look through a vent when you are in it there is no grate cover thingy, but if you look go through it, and jump down into a room, there is a cover grate thingy. By the way, Yoko Ono is John Lennon's oriental wife. John Lennon was a member of the Beatles. The Beatles were a REALLY popular band from the 50's-60's. (Just in case.)
This one run's really lowsy on a 486. I haven't spent a lot of time with it, but unless you use clipping, it can be kinda tricky. You're in a city, and there is this big Independance Day(Hmmm what day is that?) thingy above you that is casting down this force field. You have to get through the forcefield. There aren't a lot of enemies scattered all over, there are a lot of enemies in one spot. You may want to use codes, but if you are one of those people who don't believe in codes, then, good luck. No errors that I have found, but I haven't spent a lot of time with it.
This one is cool. It took some planning, and a lot of time. Its a dukematch level, so no enemies or monsters. Basically its a baseball stadium, you can leave and go into a small city, or into the parking garage for the stadium. This level hides a lot of cool stuff. Plenty of weapons too!!!!! No known Errors.
This level is the U.S.S. Enterprise from the original Star Trek series. You travel through the ship, looking for the transporter room. Then you beam down to this planet to beat the level. It's pretty cool. There are enemies, lots of em, but it'd still be a cool dukematch lev. Also, it is very detailed, it has a shuttlebay, sick bay, etc. The bridge is especially well done. No errors that I have found.
This level is cool. It better be, I made it
myself. It has everything. It's got a little space stuff, a little
underwater stuff, normal stuff too. Well as normal as Duke gets. Comes
complete with great scenery. (You know, the kind of stuff you can turn off
with a password.) Has its own bar night club thingy, has mountains, transporters,
everything. I just couldn't stick with any one theme. No enemies yet, and
it is error ridden. I'm working on them, but it kinda takes a while, so
keep coming back looking for updates.(Once a year or so)In this level so far, stay away from
the water. You can get in it, but not back from it. Don't get lost in any
mazes, although it is far easier to get out of them than I originally intended.
Don't use stuff thats broken, it can be hazardous to your health. And
the final tip I leave you with is, beware of the obvious. Ohh yeah, no
end either, so u don't have to look.
By the way, there are a few errors not mentioned here, but not critical.
And if you wanna do modifications, fixes, etc. please do. But I'd appreciate
if you'd give em too me, or tell me or something.
Coming soon (I hope)
The Sniper level
This one will have like windows and struff where all the weapons are hidden, you just walk through them. Also, will have good hiding places, and traps, etc. This level is in such an early stage though that it will probably undergoe many changes by the time I realese it. I don't know when it'll come out either. Time is hard to come by lately.
