Overview:

This is an Amiga 68k port of Duke Nukem 3D based on the old Atari/Amiga ports

with some newer features from Chocolate Duke added for extra flavour.

Requirements:

1) An AGA Amiga.

2) 68060 processor or better.

3) 32 MB of RAM.

4) AHI installed and configured (see links section below).

5) The Duke Nukem 3D data files (must be the full PC Atomic version!).

Configuration Options:

The 'CloseWB' configuration option can be used to close the Workbench.

The 'DisplayModePAL' configuration option can be used to set your

display mode (PAL or NTSC).

When running from the Shell you must specify a stack of at least 300,000.

The AHI device used will be the one setup in your AHI Prefs (unit 0).

You will need to place the PC game data files DUKE3D.GRP and DUKE.RTS

in the AmiDuke folder.

Any errors *should* be written to a file called 'ERROR.TXT' in the game

directory.

Performance Considerations:

1) If you have a Blizzard you should really be using BlizKick, Apollo users

should be using RemApollo.

2) Fast File System is actually really slow, use PFS3 instead.

3) Use v4.18 of AHI as the later versions are too slow on a real Amiga.

Limitations:

1) No network or multi-player support.

2) No joystick support.

3) No music support.

Version History:

1.0.6 - Initial release.

1.0.8 - Added support for NTSC screen modes.

1.0.9 - Fixed graphic issues with ramps.

1.0.10 - Fixed close Workbench tooltype.

1.0.16 - Added support to run from the Shell.

1.0.18 - Fixed memory corruption on startup.

1.0.19 - Compiled for CPU's without an FPU.

1.0.20 - Compiled for CPU's with an FPU due to negative performance impact.

1.0.21 - Fixed an issue with the mouse when running in higher resolution.

1.0.22 - Fixed memory bug when loading the DUKE.RTS file.

1.0.23 - Added support for playing back compressed music files (OGG/WAV) using

the SDL Mixer.

1.0.24 - Minor performance improvements.

1.0.35 - Changed timer back to threaded, removed music support.
