Discussion into the development of Duke Nukem 3D sourceport using the Doomsday Engine.

For those who are new here I should just say that jDuke is not currently available or even being worked on (yet).

Here are some file resources.

Duke Nukem Source Code

I just hope that JonoF's port of Duke get's to a better point. The OpenGl renderer doesn't work at all with my Intel Graphics (doesn't surprise me much, I got a 9600 XT coming in anyway). That Polymost renderer that Ken Silverman (creator of Build) wrote up will surely help out in speeding up a jDuke or similar project. I just hope Blood and Shadow Warrior get their sources released soon. Maybe even the Redneck Rampage games. I don't think any other Build games are worth the time (the only other one I've played is NAM and that's more of a Duke TC then anything else, so I can't speak from experience, just reviews).

nothing really works too well on intel graphics, the polymost does not speed jduke, since whenever we'll see it or not it will use the doomsday (2.0) engine, not the build engine

Yeah!...
Humm..is possible to working DukeNukem withe the Doomsday
or Is for making an Game mod ( like the Doom64 )...?

I think Strife can work greatly with the Doomsday...but it is legale..?

January 8th, 2004, 02:03 AM

The problem is that Hexen Heretic, and Doom share the same code, while all duke games are, in fact, completely different.
No. 27: The Larch. (sorry, had to do that =d )
anyway, If the polymost engine is ever cleaned up, I would love to see JonoF's port grow to Doomsday proportions. And we finally have a hardware Duke. And I can play at 1600x1200, not just take screenys. And why has NOONE mentioned the KICK-A$$ menu's added? now if only mouse-look worked properly...

EDIT: An update to JonoF's port is out, mostly polymost updates, like working mirrors and status bar.

I might be able to help you there.

I had to modify "Duke3d.cfg" to get that to work right.

In "Duke3d.cfg" under the "[Controls]" section add

MouseAimingFlipped = 0
MouseAiming = 0
AimingFlag = 1
AutoAim = 0

I know it looks funky but that is how I could get proper mouse-look to work

wow....

Hum..and what about "Rise of the triad" ( for me the first version of the build engine ) ...?? i'm very like this game..

- Humm.. what is the "Dark force" engine..? ( this engine can
post 3d thing )

rise of the triad used a modified wolf3d engine if my memory serves me right, the first game with the build engine was
'witchaven'

dark forces (a lucas arts frist person shooter prequel to jedi knight/jedi outcast/jedi academy) used a unnamed inhouse engine by lucas arts

destarus · January 8th, 2004, 07:37 AM

I've had this question burning in the back of brain for a long long time now:

Why could we not just read the Darkforces/Duke maps as lines verticies and sectors and re-compile them in BSP for JDoom, much like the way GLBSP works?
Obviously, duke can do SOS, and Darkforces could have polygons on screen and sprite flats... but the MAP GEOMETRY for both games is very similar between those three games.
Many features in Duke3D already exist in some form or fasion in JDoom's XG capabilities (except for slopes... ) And darkforces wasn't too much more complex.

Anyway, I'm certain this could be done, and if I'm right. With an additional duke3d 'mod' and a map converter, we could play duke3d maps in JDoom, with the obvious lack of flat sprites, SOS and slopes of course. In any case, it's a start, and to me seems better than trying to re-write the portal system used in Duke3d.

Cain · January 8th, 2004, 07:41 AM

How...yeah..i remember "Witchaven"....( Tekwar not out befor Witchaven ? )
An strange game...

- Strife use the Doom engine...why is not possible to use
the Doomsday whith it...?

Weenuk · January 8th, 2004, 02:18 PM

Yah, I was referring to a new engine with Doomsday like features. I wouldn't mind making a couple models for that.

I used to love Rise Of The Triad! The best weapon ever came from that game... The Excalibat!

January 9th, 2004, 12:26 AM

Hey, turning off auto-aim works! Your a lifesaver, Deathgiver (ironicly...)
Excalibat? okay... Doesnt beat the missle launcher from Shadow Warrior, though. (ever seen another rocket launcher that can launch dumbfire, heatseeking (dumbfire with a card you get separatly), and NUCLEAR WARHEADS???) sure, yours is a bit more unconventional, but then theres the DOLL OF DOOM!!! from the CHAOS mod for UT. ie, a doll that chases your enemys that explodes with A NUCLEAR WARHEAD!!!

for that...

Cain · January 9th, 2004, 01:08 AM

EXCELENT !

I was being kind of sarcastic... I just think the Excalibat is the wackiest weapon idea. It's a baseball bat that you can either wack the bad guys with, or shoot 10 explosive baseballs that blow everyone up in the room

Have you ever actually seen the Excalibat?
I've seen that doll in Chaos UT, but I'm talking about weapons from older games here.

No prob at all, thank you for linking the update

January 9th, 2004, 02:52 AM

Heh, yes, I have seen the Excalibat. You posted the pic, remember?

Shadow Warrior is pretty old, a year after Duke, I think. So the nuke missle launcher is still valid. I know you were just goofing off, I just like the nuke so much.
Oh, yeah, If you use Build, and didnt notice the second link on his site, the fix for that is there as well.

Cain · January 9th, 2004, 05:24 AM

Opengl patch for Blood (

I LOVE BLOOD

)
and Shadow warrior games...that exist...?

January 9th, 2004, 04:09 PM

Yeah, but only adds biliniear filtering, which I hated in the first place. I like SHARP textures.

Droyd · January 11th, 2004, 07:45 AM

About Strife: Strifes source hasn't been released...Every Doom Engine game shares most of the code in the Doom Engine...But every game that uses the doom engine also have individual code each. The same for Strife.
Since the source of Strife is not released, there isn't really a good way to support Strife, because it's individual code isn't available.

This individual code is stored in seperate dll's in Doomsday. For instance jhexen.dll, jdoom.dll etc...There's no way to make a jstrife.dll
