Duke Nukem 3D Atomic Edition
Quote
Duke Nukem 3D is a first-person shooter computer game developed by 3D Realms and published by Apogee Software.
It was released on January 29, 1996. Duke Nukem 3D features the adventures of Duke Nukem, a character that had
previously appeared in the platform games Duke Nukem and Duke Nukem II which were also published by Apogee.
The Atomic Edition of Duke Nukem 3D was released in November 1996, and contained the original 3 episode game as
well as a new eleven-level fourth episode. The Plutonium PAK was also released as an upgrade package to convert
the original release of Duke Nukem 3D (v1.3d) to the new Atomic Edition (v1.4, later patched to v1.5).
It introduces three enemies: the Protector Drone, the Pig Cop Tank, and a new boss known as The Queen. It also
includes a new weapon, the Microwave Expander.
It also has several improvements to the scripting language of the game, allowing the game's active modding
community to create new enemies and items without overwriting the existing ones.
A feature exclusive to the Atomic Edition is the Fake Multiplayer computer controlled bots which can be
launched at the DOS prompt. These bots are capable of putting up a decent offline fight against the player to
give a glimpse of what the player can find in real online games or if the player has no available connection.
They can also be useful for testing DukeMatch sessions offline during the creation of a map.
Extra Info:
The game can be launched in Windows XP or Windows Vista 32/64 bit using EDuke32. Also included with the package
is DukesterX, a program that can be used to play the game online or over a LAN. DukesterX requires the use of EDuke32.
