Duke3dw Features

This is a modified version of Jonothan Fowlers Duke3d adding stuff we found necessary.
Although it is important to try and keep the game as original as possible it is often necessary
to make several changes to improve things which adds to the gameplay.
Duke3dw always uses the latest code available from JonoF wherever possible.

Version 3.56
Cheats

Version 3.55
File Paths
The Grp/zip files '-g' command can now have a complete path for example:
Duke3dw.exe -gC:\Duke3d\MyAddons\MyTC.grp -xC:\Duke3d\MyAddons\MyTCGame.con

Addon Hrp
If in the above example you have a Hrp for your TC or Addon, just name it as the same name as the Grp file and add _hrp.zip, put it in the same folder and Duke3dw will load it.
For example MyTC_hrp.zip

Maps folder
When using the in game Users option for maps, only folders that start with the word Maps will be displayed.
For example: Maps Maps1 Maps2 Maps3 Mapsdm etc.

-j or /j Command
Although previously added, it has now been updated.
For example if used in a commandline startup as follows:
Duke3dw.exe -jC:\Duke3d\MyAddons
The folder MyAddons will now become part of the general Searchpath for files etc.
This is handy if you want to put all your map or TC files into one folder.

Additional cheat codes
See below near end.


Version v3.50 to v3.54

Sets Autoload folder in general searchpath.
Sets Games folder in general searchpath.
Uses Duke3d_hrp.zip if in Autoload or root folder.
Uses Maphacks.zip if in Autoload or root folder.
Sees user Addon games in ZIP format if in Autoload or Games folders.
Only .bat file needs to be in root folder.
Commandline written to log file.


D3wSetup
Duke3dw comes with its own Setup configuration program D3wSetup.exe and creates its own Duke3dw.cfg file which replaces the Duke3d.cfg

Highres Loader
If the Duke3d HRP (High Resolution Pack) is zipped as Duke3d_Hrp.zip and stored in the root folder, it will be automatically loaded.

Huds
Due to the resizing of the screen when switching Huds it was found that too much information was lost when using the small Hud.
Therefore 2 extra Huds were added to Duke3dw to accomodate this.

Cheats
It was also found that in debugging and also many user maps, it was often necessary to call for only one key and not all of them as in DNKEYS.
The following additional cheat codes have now been added:

DNBLUKEY - adds the Blue key.
DNREDKEY - adds the Red key.
DNYELKEY - adds the Yellowonly.

DNGOD - God mode

"Load Last Saved Game".
This bug has now been corrected in Duke3dw and the keys are much more responsive.
