The cult Duke Nukem 3D shooter made its debut under the DOS system, which in these days of Windows domination may turn out to be problematic if someone wants to return to it. But from what are the fans. Thanks to the fact that some time ago the sources of the title code were made available, enthusiasts quickly adapted it to work on modern computer sets.
Graphics was improved, mistakes of the original were also eliminated. An immediately noticeable change, apart from the compatibility of the classic title with newer operating systems, is the ability to play at much higher resolutions than it used to be possible. The player can use two different rendering techniques, the classic as in the original or improved.
In the latter case, new lighting effects will blend in beautifully with unforgettable gameplay, giving the aged product colors. EDuke32 gets rid of the programming problems of the original, which would make it difficult to enjoy the joy of communing with it if they were left unchanged. In other words, the developers took care of the stability of the application.
In addition, support for Duke Nukem 3D fan-made modifications, including alternative play modes and high quality texture packages and models, has been added. Of course, maps created by game lovers are supported, as well as the Mapster32 tool for browsing and creating your own maps. It is, of course, based on the former Build editor.
In this version you don't need DOSBox to have fun, because everything works, among others, under Windows. However, it is required to add files with the GRP extension, which contain data of the Duke Nukem 3D game, to the root directory of EDuke32 and select them from the list at the start. Of course, the files from the free edition of the shareware hit are also supported.
