|-----------------| Regarding Duke 3D
|I have a 'minimum spec.' machine (486dx2/66, 8mb RAM, SB16). The
|shareware version ran really smoothly, albeit with reduced sound quality
|and a slightly smaller screen size. However, the full retail version
|(including my own levels) do not seem to run as well and are very 'jerky'.
|I was just wondering if the code had been 'Pentium optimised' or something
|causing a reduced performance on anything less.
What kind of video do you have? If you have plain ISA, that would
explain it. On a 486, VESA or PCI LOCAL BUS video is almost essential
for smooth game play.
|Secondly, the Build engine. Whilst I appreciate the fact that you have
|included it (thanks again :-) ), it would have been nice if you could
|have taken a little time to explain how to create doors, lifts, etc. You
I'm sorry, but it's provided "as is". Get on the net, there's a pile of
Duke web pages, some with very excellent FAQ's on using Build.
|One final thing, whilst I have you attention. I don't suppose there
|will be any futher instalments of ROTT, will there?

We did publish something called Extreme Rise of the Triad. It had 42
new levels for DarkWar (I designed 15 of them!), as well as 3 level
editors, maps, and other cool stuff on it. We sell it direct for
$19.95.
