It IS known that some versions of duke will make the problem worse, I use JonoF port with no problems. *DNKROZ may activate partial scripted sequences, which may make the map unbeatable, DONT CHEAT! *As of release date, if you play with Hi-Res mode on many of the sprite colors will not appear how they should. They are color coded for a reason. *This is the second version of the map, which addressed some of the bugs that were found in post-release testing, thank you to all who informed me of these problems. ===================================================================== Important Notes : The path of the map crosses itself many times, If you get stuck use the security monitors for a clue. If you are really stuck, return to the 'mix room', use this as your home base to see what you need to do next. There are two modes of play for single-player. 1. COME GET SOME 2. DAMN IM GOOD Even though difficulty settings may not have been set, this map is really supposed to be played with re-spawing enemies so that it gets progressivly harder. *Important Information* FOR DUKE 3D PORT USERS THE TEXTURING, PALLETING, AND LIGHTING EFFECTS USED IN THIS LEVEL REQUIRE THE LEVEL TO BE PLAYED IN "CLASSIC MODE" ONLY. IF YOU PLAY THIS LEVEL WITH POLYMOST ON, IT IS YOUR LOSS!!!!! ====================================================================== * Story * Ten years have elapsed since the first alien encounter. In the meanwhile, an agreement was established with the aliens which allowed them to construct a chemical factory on Earth. Now, however, it is believed that they are violating the peace agreement and making biological weapons. Two Impossible Mission Facility agents were sent into FactoryX 3 days ago to investigate. These two agents, Red Duke and Yellow Duke were sent in carrying access cards. IMF hasn't heard from them in 72 hours, we fear the worst. Duke, we need you to finish the job. If you encounter any hostility while in FactoryX, you are instructed to destroy the building. IMF was able to obtain access cards to the alien's storage depots. The Red Card is key to the alien's general storage, where you may find the RPG. The Yellow Card is key to the alien's primary armory where it is believed the Devestator is kept. These two cards were lost with the agents. The Blue Card, which you have been given, gains access to the alien's top secret Project Blue, where IMF reports the aliens have developed Atomic Water. Duke, the aliens will be expecting you, so we predict that they have already turned the main power off in anticipation of your arrival. All mechaincal doors depend on the power supply. Your first priority then is to establish a power supply to the building. Good Luck Duke! ====================================================================== * CO-OP Race * CO-OP RACE is a new method of dukematch gameplay. The game involves two or more online/network players, and is similar to dukematch. Start a Cooperative mode game with: Respawn : ON Freindly Fire : ON Difficulty : Damn I'm Good The rules: 1.The first player to hit the Nuke Button wins the match! 2.Kills don't matter and aren't counted. 3.After the level has been completed and the match is over, restart the level for a new match. 4.Anything goes, win by any means necessary Try this style of play with Hollywood Holocaust! - email me if you want a game of co-op race. ====================================================================== * Multi player game set up * THIS ONLY WORKS WITH THE HI-RES PACK (http://download.dukemaps.net/dn3d_hrp-2005-11-01.exe) HOST - The host needs to set themselves up as host. Right-click on the Duke Nukem 3D icon on the desktop. The TARGET info will say something like this: "C:\Program Files\Duke3D\duke3d.exe" /ghacks.zip /gduke3d_hrp.zip You will need to change it to say this: "C:\Program Files\Duke3D\duke3d.exe" /ghacks.zip /gduke3d_hrp.zip /net /n0:2 Basically just add to the end /net /n0:2 Change the number 2 to the total number of people playing. So if you are starting a 3 player game make it say 3 and so on. If the host is behind a firewall he will also have to open up port 23513 to forward to his computer. If a linux firewall is being used the iptables commands are: /sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -i eth0 --dport 23513 -j DNAT --to 255.255.255.255:23513 /sbin/iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p udp -i eth0 --dport 23513 -j DNAT --to 255.255.255.255:23513 Of course instead of 255.255.255.255 the host will put his own internal ip address of the machine. Something similar to 192.168.1.99 OTHER PLAYERS - Eveyone else must also change their run command as follows: Right-click on the Duke Nukem 3D icon on the desktop. The TARGET info will say something like this: "C:\Program Files\Duke3D\duke3d.exe" /ghacks.zip /gduke3d_hrp.zip You will need to change it to say this: "C:\Program Files\Duke3D\duke3d.exe" /ghacks.zip /gduke3d_hrp.zip /net /n0 255.255.255.255 However, instead of 255.255.255.255 you will need to put the ip address of the host. Sometimes you will get a sync error while playing the game. If you have auto-aiming on it happens a lot, when it is off it is much less often. Usually when a sync error occurs it means everyone must quit and rejoin.
